Voltage Sensor Module 0-25V Proteus Library: Easy and Enhance Your Simulation

Arduino Voltage Sensor Module:

Using a voltage sensor module with Arduino is a straightforward process. Voltage sensors are commonly used to measure the voltage of a power source or a specific circuit. Here are the general steps to connect and use a voltage sensor module with Arduino.

Materials Needed:

Arduino board (e.g., Arduino Uno)

Voltage sensor module
Jumper wires
Power source (battery or power supply)

Understand Your Voltage Sensor Module:

The Voltage Detection Sensor Module is a handy device that makes it easy to measure voltages higher than what your microcontroller can handle. It does this by using a potential divider to reduce the input voltage by a factor of 5. This means, with a microcontroller having a 0V — 5V Analog input range, you can effectively measure voltages up to 25V

Connection:

Connect the VCC pin of the voltage sensor module to the positive terminal of the voltage to be measured (0-25V).
Connect the GND pin of the voltage sensor module to the negative terminal of the voltage to be measured.
Connect the S (Signal) pin of the voltage sensor module to the analog input pin on the Arduino (e.g., A0).
Connect the – (minus) pin of the voltage sensor module to the GND pin on the Arduino.

Write Arduino Code:

Open the Arduino IDE on your computer.
Write a simple code to read the analog voltage from the sensor.

Upload the Code and Monitor the output:

Connect your Arduino board to your computer using a USB cable.
Select the correct board and port in the Arduino IDE.
Upload the code to your Arduino.

Open the Serial Monitor in the Arduino IDE to see the voltage readings.
The sensor will continuously read the voltage and display it on the Serial Monitor

Proteus Simulation

To smoothly bring the Voltage Sensor into your Proteus simulations, just follow these easy steps to download and install the library. The download link is right below for a quick start. Integrating the Voltage Sensor is a breeze, and you only need a few clicks to include it in your circuit, allowing you to observe how it behaves alongside other components during your simulation.

How to Install Arduino Voltage Sensor Module in Proteus

Extract NodeMCU Library:

Open the .zip file containing the model library.
Extract the contents, typically finding folders like LIB and MODELS.

Locate Proteus Library Folder:

Identify your Proteus library folder on your computer. The default location may vary based on your Proteus software version.
For Proteus 8 Professional, it’s often found at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 8 Professional\DATA\LIBRARY

Copy LIB Files:

Open the LIB folder extracted from the model library.
Copy the files within the LIB folder.
Paste these files into your Proteus Library Folder.

Locate Proteus Model Folder:

Find the Proteus Model folder, usually located alongside the Library Folder.
For Proteus 8 Professional, the path might be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 8 Professional\DATA\MODELS

Copy MODELS Files:

Open the MODELS folder extracted from the model library.
Copy the files within the MODELS folder.
Paste these files into your Proteus Model Folder.

Alternative DATA Folder Location:

For certain versions of Proteus, you might locate the DATA folder here:
C:\ProgramData\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 8 Professional\DATA

Keep in mind that sometimes this folder (ProgramData) is hidden, so you may need to unhide it to access the specified location

Once you’ve added these files, restart Proteus. You’ll now find the Voltage Sensor right there in the Pick Device Window. It’s ready for easy selection and integration into your simulation projects.

The Voltage Sensor Module Library for Proteus is available for download here.
