Grove - Digital Infrared Temperature Sensor (Based on MLX90615)
This goes with it
Description
Digitaler Infrarot-Temperatursensor
Digital infrared temperature sensor
The digital infrared temperature sensor is a non-contact temperature measurement module based on the MLX90615. Both the IR-sensitive thermopile detector chip and the signal conditioning chip are integrated in the same package. This module communicates with Arduino via SMBus, and up to 127 sensors can be read via a shared 2-wire connection. Thanks to the module's low-noise amplifier, 16-bit ADC, and powerful DSP unit, high accuracy of 1 °C over a wide temperature range and high measurement resolution of 0.02 °C can be achieved.
The ambient temperature is the MLX90615 case temperature, and the object temperature is the object target temperature. Place the sensor at normal indoor temperature and ensure that there is no heat source within the sensor's 1 m range. The object temperature will be approximately equal to the ambient temperature. When measuring the object temperature, make sure that the object is as close as possible to the sensor. However, do not touch the sensor surface. A distance of less than 3 cm is recommended.
- Features
- Wide temperature detection range: -40 to 85 °C for the sensor temperature and -40 to 115 °C for the object temperature
