MIKROE-6821

MIKROE-6821 is a Grid-EYE 3 click compact add-on board that provides thermal imaging by detecting temperature distribution across a two-dimensional area, enabling recognition of heat sources, moving objects, and environmental temperature variations. It is based on the AMG883642, a narrow-type infrared array sensor from Panasonic built using advanced MEMS technology. This sensor features an 8×8 (64-pixel) thermal detection array with a typical field of view of 35.6° horizontally and vertically, a temperature ranges from -20 to 80°C, accuracy of ±3.0°C, and temperature O/P resolution of 0.25°C. It communicates with the host MCU via the I2C interface, supports an interrupt function for event-based detection, and includes MIKROE’s unique Click Snap feature, allowing the sensor section to be detached and positioned independently for flexible implementation. It is ideal for applications such as home and building automation, people detection, air-conditioning control, fault prevention.
