Sgp41-tvoc sensor module

Open-Air-Foundation/pcb-module-sgp41

A compact 2-layer carrier board for the Sensirion SGP41 TVOC/NOₓ sensor. It exposes the sensor's I²C interface on a 4-pin 2.54 mm header, with on-board pull-ups and decoupling — everything else lives on the host monitor.

AirGradient SGP41 TVOC Sensor Module — Hardware

KiCad hardware design files for the AirGradient SGP41 TVOC/NOₓ sensor module — a plug-in sensor board used in AirGradient air quality monitors, including the Open Air Max.

Overview

A compact 2-layer carrier board for the Sensirion SGP41 TVOC/NOₓ sensor. It exposes the sensor's I²C interface on a 4-pin 2.54 mm header, with on-board pull-ups and decoupling — everything else lives on the host monitor.

Design structure

A single KiCad project in sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module/: one schematic sheet (sensor, connector, passives) and a 2-layer board. (The design was originally drawn as two separate KiCad 6-era projects — schematic and a board named tvoc-sensor-module — and was unified on import; the archived Gerbers keep the tvoc-sensor-module naming.)

Toolchain

  • KiCad (file format 2021-era, KiCad 6). Custom symbol/footprint/3D libraries are bundled in libraries/ and referenced project-relative through fp-lib-table / sym-lib-table — the project opens without any extra library setup.

Fabrication

sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module/production/ holds the released Gerber set (tvoc-sensor-module-v3.zip); the BOM is in sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module/BOM/.

Versioning & releases

Hardware revisions are tagged on this repository. Per-version release notes and the matching production file set are published on the GitHub Releases page.

Questions

How big is the Sgp41-tvoc sensor module PCB?

It measures 10 × 12 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sgp41-tvoc sensor module use?

8 parts, built around the SGP41-D-R4. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Sgp41-tvoc sensor module KiCad files?

From the Open-Air-Foundation/pcb-module-sgp41 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module/sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module.kicad_pcb and its schematic sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module/sgp41-tvoc-sensor-module.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sgp41-tvoc sensor module design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
