MLX90614 IR Thermometer Library for Proteus V1.0: GY-906 Non-Contact

MLX90614 IR Thermometer Library for Proteus V1.0: a GY-906 module with its STATUS panel and the Advance pop-up

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the new MLX90614 IR Thermometer Library for Proteus V1.0 . The MLX90614 is the sensor inside many non-contact thermometers: point it at a forehead, a cup of tea, a motor or a soldering iron, and it tells you the temperature without touching it. On the blue GY-906 module it is one of the most popular sensors for Arduino projects, and now you can build and test those projects in Proteus. Behind the part sits our own model , not a part that shows a number. The MLX90614 answers the Arduino on the SMBus exactly as the datasheet says: Read Word with a repeated start, Write Word, and a PEC checksum on every word. It measures every 100 ms, keeps its emissivity in its EEPROM, and works out the object's temperature from the in ...
