HOW TO MANUFACTURE A SMOKE AND GAS SENSOR WITH THE MQ-02.
By Samuel Ramírez Martínez 08/03/2019
Materials:
- MQ-02 smoke and gas sensor
- Arduino whatever
- 2 leds one green and one red
- 1 buzer (buzzer)

Connections:
 -Digital pin 2 to negative pin of the red LED and to the negative pin of the buzer.
- Digital pin 3 to negative pin of the green led.
-Analog pin 0 to the analog pin of the sensor called DATa.
