Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3194 IR Grid 2 Click Thermal Imaging Sensor MLX90640 I2C

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-3194):

MIKROE-3194 MLX90640. 32x24 IR grid array sensor with EEPROM, I2C, 3.3V, 5V. IR Grid 2 click is a thermal imaging sensor. It has an array of 768 very sensitive factory calibrated IR elements (pixels), arranged in 32 rows of 24 pixels. Each one of them is measuring an object temperature up to 300°C within its local Field of View (FOV). The MLX90640 IR sensor used on this Click board™ has just four pins, and it is mounted inside of the industry standard TO39 package. It is equipped with 2Kbit of EEPROM for storing the compensation and calibration parameters. The MLX90640 IR sensor array IC has I2C compatible digital interface, allowing it to be interfaced with a wide range of different MCUs. The sensor used on this Click board™ offers a summed field of view of 55°x32°. The sensor can output up to 64 frames per second (FPS). Type: Optical. Applications: It can be used for thermal scanners, precise contactless thermal measurement, thermal leaks in homes, industrial temperature control of moving parts, other types of heated object localization, human presence, and other similar applications. On-board modules: MLX90640, a 32x24 IR grid array sensor with EEPROM, and a FOV of 55°x32°, from Melexis; PCA9306, a bi-directional I2C level translator, from Texas Instruments. Key Features: 768 factory calibrated sensors, capable of contactless measuring of temperature up to 300°C, integrated 8Kbit of EEPROM for storing configuration and compensation parameters, programmable refresh rate up to 64Hz, and more. Interface: I2C. Input Voltage: 3.3V, 5V. Compatibility: mikroBUS. Click board size: M (42.9 x 25.4 mm).
