AirQuality-MQ135.ino

/*
  Arduino MQ135

  connect the sensor as follows for raw sensor :

  A H A   >>> 5V
  B       >>> A0
  H       >>> GND
  B       >>> 10K ohm >>> GND

  connect the sensor as follows if on board :

  Vcc     >>> 5V
  Gnd     >>> Gnd
  Aout    >>> A0

/*****************************  MQGetPercentage **********************************
Input:   rs_ro_ratio - Rs divided by Ro
         pcurve      - pointer to the curve of the target gas
Output:  ppm of the target gas
Remarks: By using the slope and a point of the line. The x(logarithmic value of ppm) 
         of the line could be derived if y(rs_ro_ratio) is provided. As it is a 
         logarithmic coordinate, power of 10 is used to convert the result to non-logarithmic 
         value.
