Description
The ZMOD4410 Gas Sensor Module is designed for detecting total volatile organic compounds (TVOC), estimating CO2, and monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) in different smell based use cases, including very humid and dusty applications with the possibility of water spray, condensation, or immersion. It is a 12- LGA assembly (3.0 × 3.0 × 0.7 mm) that consists of a gas sense element and a CMOS signal conditioning IC. The module’s sense element consists of heater element on a Si-based MEMS structure and a metal oxide (MOx) chemiresistor. The signal conditioner controls the sensor temperatures and measures the MOx conductivity, which is a function of the gas concentration. The measurement results can be read via an I2C interface with the user’s microprocessor, which processes the data.
FEATUREs
