Adafruit Ir Temperature Sensor

Ir detectors are little microchips with a photocell that are tuned to listen to infrared light.

Adafruit ir temperature sensor.

1748 this cyber tronic looking sensor hides a secret behind its glimmering eye. It uses a very sensitive thermopile to measure the infrared energy being emitted from the surface of the object. Adafruit industries unique fun diy electronics and kits melexis contact less infrared sensor mlx90614 5v id. Adafruit industries unique fun diy electronics and kits adafruit amg8833 ir thermal camera breakout id.

To use connect pin 1 left to power between 2 7 and 5 5v pin 3 right to ground and pin 2 to analog in on your microcontroller. Because of that there is really only one way to read the temperature value from the sensor and that is plugging the output pin directly into an analog adc input. They are almost always used for remote control detection every tv and dvd player has one of these in the front to listen for the ir signal from the clicker. 3538 add heat vision to your project and with an adafruit amg8833 grid eye breakout.

When connected to your microcontroller or raspberry pi it will return an array of 768 individual infrared temperature readings over i2c. Compared to the lm75 however the 11 bit adc in the pct2075 provides more precise measurements when compared to the lm75 s 9 bit adc. You can now add affordable heat vision to your project with an adafruit mlx90640 thermal camera breakout. Simply point the sensor towards what you want to measure and it will detect the temperature by.

165 wide range low power temperature sensor outputs an analog voltage that is proportional to the ambient temperature. It s like those fancy thermal cameras but compact and simple enough for easy integration. Unlike most temperature sensors this sensor measures infrared light bouncing off of remote objects so it can sense temperature without having to touch them physically. This sensor works best with objects that are good emitters of infrared radiation.

Reading the analog temperature data unlike the fsr or photocell sensors we have looked at the tmp36 and friends doesn t act like a resistor. Adafruit industries unique fun diy electronics and kits contact less infrared thermopile sensor breakout tmp007 id. 2023 unlike most of the other temperature sensors we have this breakout has a really cool ir sensor from ti that can measure the temperature of an object without touching it please note. This sensor contains a 24x32 array of ir thermal sensors.

Unlike most temperature sensors the tmp006 does not require contact with the object it is measuring. These parts are formally discontinued they work great but we won 39 t be stocking. This sensor from panasonic is an 8x8 array of ir thermal sensors. Adafruit industries unique fun diy electronics and kits contact less infrared thermopile sensor breakout tmp006 id.

The adafruit pct2075 temperature sensor is a code compatible drop in replacement for a very common i2c temperature sensor the lm75. When connected to your microcontroller or raspberry pi it will return an array of 64 individual infrared temperature readings over i2c.
