Thin-film pyroelectric sensors: detection of infrared light at 2um – 20um wavelenghts
Video: Borut Kastelic - Pyroelectric Detectors for capnography
Pyroelectric detectors are infrared sensing components, which are commonly used in detection of wavelengths from 2 to 20um. Broadcom’s thin-film pyroelectric sensors are unique and offer a range of benefits to the user.
We offer a full range of thin film analog and digital detector components in TO-39 or SMD packaging. Our detectors are available in single- and dual-channel versions. The ezPyro digital detectors combine high-quality sensors with a high level of configurable electric integration in a small SMD package. These sensors are highly reliable and are used for a wide range of gas and flame detection.
