Mouser Now Stocking Bosch BMV080 Ultra-Compact Particulate Matter Sensor for IoT and Smart Applications

­Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, is now shipping the new BMV080 particulate matter sensor from Bosch. The BMV080 features small dimensions (4.4 × 3.0 × 20 mm including flex PCB) and a fanless, non-intrusive design, making it a natural fit for ultra-compact wearable or IoT devices such as air-quality monitors, smart speakers, smart switches, smart thermostats, and smart air purifiers.

The Bosch BMV080 particulate matter sensor, available from Mouser, is the world's smallest particulate matter (PM) air quality sensor, creating the perfect fit for ultra-compact IoT devices. Utilizing VCSEL technology and sophisticated algorithms to measure the PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 mass concentration, the BMV080 provides precise measurement of PM mass concentration without requiring a fan. The BMV080's fanless construction also ensures no fan-induced dust buildup, making this sensor more reliable and less prone to malfunction.

The Bosch Sensortec BMV080 Shuttle Board 3.1, also available from Mouser, is a PCB with the BMV080 sensor mounted on it to sense particulate matter (PM) mass concentration (PM2.5, PM1, and PM10). In combination with the Bosch application board 3.1, the BMV080 shuttle board can be used to evaluate BMV080 output signals. This shuttle board allows easy access to the sensor pins via a simple socket and can be directly plugged into the application board.
