Description
The MLX90614 ESF is an infrared thermometer designed for accurate non-contact temperature detection. It integrates both the IR-sensitive thermopile detector and signal-conditioning ASIC inside a compact TO-39 can, offering a robust contactless temperature sensor solution with high precision and stability. Thanks to its onboard 17-bit ADC and DSP, it provides reliable digital readings, which makes it useful for developers seeking to build dependable temperature monitoring or control systems using a non contact temperature sensor configuration.
