The SQ-110 sensor, specifically calibrated for the detection of solar radiation, provides at its output a voltage proportional to the intensity of the light in the visible range of the spectrum, a key parameter in photosynthesis processes. It presents a maximum output of 400 mV under maximum radiation conditions. In order to improve the accuracy of the reading, this is carried out through a 16 bits analog-to-digital converter that communicates with the microprocessor of the mote through the I2C.
