Panasonic PIR breakout board

This is a Panasonic PIR breakout board. It breaks out their TO-5 sensors onto 0.1"/2.54mm pitch headers, for use with a solderless breadboard.

Here is what it looks like currently:

Top (alongside the EKMC1601111):

Panasonic PIR breakout board - top

Rear (note the filled in gold area on one pin of the PIR, it goes with the * on the board and denotes ground):

Fabrication

The simplest way is to just click through to this shared project on OSHPark's site. You'll get three boards with purple soldermask.

If you prefer using your own CNC/mill/board house, just grab the Gerber files and KiCAD source and bobs (nearly) your uncle. If you really are going to use a CNC/mill/etch, it might be ideal to drop a polygon fill on both sides to minimize the amount of copper that needs to be removed.

Bill of Materials

Pick a sensor (these have been verified to fit on this breakout):

Model Vendor
EKMB1303112 Mouser
EKMC1601111 Digikey

You'll also need a strip of 0.1"/2.54mm header, but this is optional (since you may use wire to permanently install the breakout later).

Quantity Description/Vendor
