KY-027 Magic Cup Tilt Switch Module Compatible with Arduino and Nodemcu

KY-027 Magic Cup Tilt Switch Module Compatible with Arduino and Nodemcu

The KY-027 module features a tilt sensor (ball switch) and an LED indicator. When the module is tilted to a certain angle, the internal ball closes the circuit, causing the LED to light up and sending a HIGH digital signal to the output pin. When the module is upright again, the ball rolls away, breaking the connection and turning the LED off, while the output pin reads LOW.

It’s a simple yet effective way to detect movement, orientation, or vibration without complex sensors. It’s ideal for learning basic sensor interfacing, automation control, or trigger mechanisms.
