Adafruit ENS161 MOX Gas Sensor – STEMMA QT / Qwiic is a compact, fully integrated digital air-quality sensor based on advanced MOX technology. Designed by ScioSense, it combines four metal-oxide sensing elements with an onboard controller to deliver reliable indoor air-quality insights. With built-in processing, it directly outputs eCO2, TVOC, and Air Quality Index values over I2C, eliminating the need for complex heater control or analog signal handling.

The STEMMA QT / Qwiic connectors make solder-free connections easy, while onboard voltage regulation and level shifting ensure compatibility with both 3.3V and 5V systems. Ideal for IoT, smart home, and educational projects, this sensor helps track air-quality trends accurately when properly calibrated.


Features:

  1. Fully integrated MOX gas sensor with onboard processing
  2. Outputs eCO2, eTVOC, AQI-U, and AQI-S values
  3. Four independent metal-oxide sensing elements
  4. I2C digital interface with STEMMA QT / Qwiic support
  5. Built-in heater control and signal algorithms
  6. Supports temperature and humidity compensation
  7. Compatible with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers
  8. Compact breakout PCB with standard header pins

Package Includes:

1 x Adafruit ENS161 MOX Gas Sensor - STEMMA QT / Qwiic

1 x Header Pin

Setup Guide

1
Identify the pins
Locate VCC (power), GND (ground), and data pins (SDA/SCL for I2C, MOSI/MISO for SPI, or TX/RX for UART). Refer to the pinout diagram on the product page.
2
Wire to your microcontroller
Connect VCC to 3.3V or 5V (check the module spec), GND to GND, and data pins to the appropriate GPIO pins on your Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
3
Install libraries
In Arduino IDE, go to Sketch → Include Library → Manage Libraries and search for the sensor library. Install the recommended version.
4
Upload example sketch
Open File → Examples → [library name] → Basic Example. Upload to your board and open Serial Monitor to view output.
5
Calibrate if needed
Some sensors (temperature, humidity, distance) may need a short warm-up period or calibration. Run the calibration sketch if provided.
