MQ-2 Gas Sensor with an ESP32 DevKit V1

// MQ-2 Gas Sensor on ESP32 DevKit V1: wiring and a free simulation at https://www.tinkered.ai/components/mq2-gas-sensor/esp32
// MQ-2 smoke/gas sensor on an ESP32 DevKit. AOUT reaches GPIO33 through a 10 kΩ / 20 kΩ divider
// (the pin sees 2/3 of AOUT). DOUT stays unwired: the module pulls it up to 5 V, so the
// alarm here is a threshold on AOUT, as the module's trimmer sets one for DOUT.

const int MQ2_AOUT = 33;
const float DIVIDER = 1.5;        // (10 kΩ + 20 kΩ) / 20 kΩ: AOUT = pin voltage x 1.5
const float CLEAN_AIR_V = 0.30;   // AOUT in clean air, warmed up (0 %)
const float SMOKE_V = 4.50;       // AOUT in heavy smoke (100 %)
const int ALARM_PERCENT = 30;     // set it from your own readings in clean air and near a gas source

  Serial.begin(9600);
  analogSetPinAttenuation(MQ2_AOUT, ADC_11db);   // 11 dB, the widest range: Espressif rates it accurate to about 2.45 V
