SparkFun IR Thermometer Evaluation Board -
MLX90614
SEN-10740 ROHS

DESCRIPTION FEATURES DOCUMENTS
This is an evaluation board for the MLX90614 IR Thermometer. The sensor is
connected to an ATmega328 running at 3.3V with a STK500 (Arduino) 8MHz
bootloader. Code can be loaded through the FTDI basic interface and the
Arduino environment.
The MLX9061 sensor is a high precision, small size, single zone IR thermometer
with an optional SMBus (two-wire) or PWM interface. The ATMega328 comes
with demo code that gives a temperature readout in degrees F at 38400bps.
You can use a 3.3V FTDI Basic to connect to the board.
This revision corrects the silkscreen error on the FTDI header. We’ve also
added pull-up resistors to the I2C lines.

Fun sensor
about 2 years ago by Member #362728 verified purchaser
I bought this evaluation board to play around with while I had a few days off from work. I also bought the Micro
OLED display, as shown in the hookup guide. There was very little information on how to actually get the OLED
interfaced with this board, but I managed to figure it out after a few false starts. With the OLED connected and
a Lipo battery as a power supply, I found myself checking the temperature on all sorts of things. How hot is my
soup? What is the temperature of that window? How hot is that heat Sink? Anyway, kind of fun, much more so
with the OLED display, and even a tad bit useful to boot.
