    FAQ

    • I am confused why both the SN-MQ7 and SN-MQ9 sensors' pin2-VCC and pin3-GND are interconnected ? Can someone help me?

      You could check the schematic.If you don't power it, the resistance value between H sides will be very small, which you could almost ignore it directly, But once it gets a power, you could measure it with a multimeter, It will change.
