TMP006EVM

The TMP006EVM is an evaluation module for TMP006, the first in a series of temperature sensors that measure the temperature of an object without the need to make contact with the object. This sensor uses a thermopile to absorb the infrared energy emitted from the object being measured and uses the corresponding change in thermopile voltage to determine the object temperature. The TMP006 can accurately detect signals in almost the entire 180° field of view of the sensor. The final calculated target object temperature is an integration of all of the signals present in the sensor field of view. Therefore, the ability of the TMP006 to accurately calculate the temperature of a target depends on ability of the IR sensor to capture the majority of its signal from the target. This capture effectiveness, in turn, depends on two factors: the angle of incidence and the distance of the TMP006 from the target.
