MLX90640

The MLX90640 is a fully calibrated 32x24 pixels thermal IR array in an industry standard 4-lead TO39 package with digital interface. The MLX90640 contains 768 FIR pixels. An ambient sensor is integrated to measure the ambient temperature of the chip and supply sensor to measure the VDD. The outputs of all sensors IR, Ta and VDD are stored in internal RAM and are accessible through I2C.
