Thermopiles
Thermopiles are IR temperature sensors that fully utilize SEMITEC original silicon-micromachining technology. SEMITEC’S thermopiles are fully compliant with RoHS DIRECTIVE2011/65/EU.
- High sensitivity and accurate temperature detection
- Compact and reliable design
- Non-contact temperature measurement
Application
Ear thermometers, IR thermometers, Microwave ovens and other Non-Contact temperature sensing applications.
