Announcing the World's First "Plug & Play" Fully Calibrated Miniaturized Digital Non-Contact Temperature Sensor
Dexter, September 20, 2002: Ann Arbor Sensor Systems, LLC, (AAS2) has released its newly developed non-contact temperature sensor for production. The sensor market now has the world's smallest, fully calibrated, digital non-contact temperature sensor, the A2NCT02. This unique device incorporates an expanded version of the Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire networking technology for full multi-drop capability. The unit is housed in a TO-5 transistor type package and incorporates an infrared lens. The three pin sensor is about the size of an eraser on a No. 2 pencil and will be available for sale on October 7th, 2002.
AAS2 is marketing the product as part of its new breed of "Plug & Play" sensor technology. According to the manufacturer, today's sensor market calls for simplicity, ease of use, adaptability with other sensors, and digital features. AAS2 took this collection of want and needs and answered the chalenge with the A2NCT02- "in conjunction with AAS2's data colection devices and software drivers for LabVIEW, MATLAB, and Mathcad, any of our new breed of "Plug & Play sensors can be introduced onto a bus running with multiple "Plug & Play" sensors and immediately be activated, identified, and made available to the data collection software without missing a beat" says Edward Kryskowski, Operations Manager for Ann Arbor Sensor Systems.
The A2NCT02 can be implemented in a wide range of applications and products. Some of its applications may include industrial temperature monitoring, climate control, security systems, automotive, laboratory, and remote sensing uses. Its small size and very low power consumption allow for adaptation to product applications such as battery operated test equipment.
The A2NCT02, along with other elements of AAS2's emerging product line, will be available for review at the Sensors Expo in Boston from September 23-26 in a joint booth hosted by AAS2 and Dexter Research Center, Americas' premier IR thermopile manufacturer to the OEM market. Contact AAS2's Edward Kryskowski 1-734-426-1791 for pricing and availability. Or visit them on the web at aas2.com.
