| |
| There are various applications for the Infra Red contactless temperature sensor |
| and MLX90632 is most suitable for consumer applications where measured object |
| temperature is in range between -20 to 200 degrees Celsius with relative error |
| of measurement below 1 degree Celsius in object temperature range for |
| industrial applications. Since it can operate and measure ambient temperature |
| in range of -20 to 85 degrees Celsius it is suitable also for outdoor use. |
| |
| Be aware that electronics surrounding the sensor can increase ambient |
| temperature. MLX90632 can be calibrated to reduce the housing effect via |
| already existing EEPROM parameters. |
| |
| Since measured object emissivity effects Infra Red energy emitted, emissivity |
| should be set before requesting the object temperature. |
| |
| Required properties: |
| - compatible: should be "melexis,mlx90632" |
| - reg: the I2C address of the sensor (default 0x3a) |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| mlx90632@3a { |
| compatible = "melexis,mlx90632"; |
| reg = <0x3a>; |
| }; |
