ZTPD-2210 Digital Output Infrared (IR) Detector

Amphenol Advanced Sensors ZTPD-2210 digital output IR detectors are designed to offer reliable temperature measurement with several innovative features. Their built-in temperature compensation ensures that the detector's output remains accurate across a range of environmental conditions. This feature stabilizes the readings, even when the surrounding temperature fluctuates, making it ideal for applications requiring precise temperature sensing. The ZTPD-2210 provides a digital I²C output, which simplifies integration with various microcontrollers or other digital systems. This digital output reduces the complexity compared to analog sensors, enabling easier communication and data processing. By combining a thermopile sensor and an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) into a single TO-39 metal package, the ZTPD-2210 maximizes performance while minimizing the footprint, which is important in space-constrained applications. The thermopile provides the sensor's core IR detection capability, while the ASIC handles signal processing and temperature compensation. The integrated design of the thermopile and ASIC ensures that the ZTPD-2210 works right out of the box without requiring recalibration. This simplifies deployment and maintenance for customers, reducing the time and effort involved in setup. The ZTPD-2210's digital output format and temperature compensation ensure compatibility with a wide range of devices, enhancing flexibility in system integration. The ZTPD-2210 is particularly suitable for applications where precise, reliable temperature detection is essential, such as environmental monitoring, industrial temperature sensing, medical devices, consumer electronics (e.g., contactless thermometers), and HVAC systems. By combining the benefits of temperature compensation, digital output, and integrated design, the ZTPD-2210 provides a versatile and reliable solution for a variety of temperature-sensing applications.
