Overview

The T6613 is a high-performance Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) carbon dioxide sensor module designed for measuring CO2 concentrations up to 2000 ppm. It features the patented ABC Logic self-calibration algorithm, which allows the sensor to maintain accuracy without manual field calibration for up to 15 years. The module supports both digital UART/I2C and analog 0V to 4V output interfaces for flexible system integration.

Why Choose This Part

The T6613 utilizes ABC Logic (Automatic Background Calibration) to virtually eliminate the need for routine maintenance or calibration in most applications. It offers versatile communication options with dual UART/I2C digital ports and a 0V to 4V analog output, while maintaining a low average power consumption of 33mA.

Applications

Demand-Controlled Ventilation
Optimizes HVAC efficiency by adjusting fresh air intake based on real-time occupancy levels detected through CO2 monitoring.
Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
Integrated into wall-mounted monitors or smart home devices to track air freshness in residential and commercial buildings.
Industrial Safety
Used in confined spaces or industrial zones where CO2 levels must be monitored to ensure worker safety and compliance.

Getting Started

To interface with the T6613, provide a stable 5VDC supply and connect to the UART or I2C pins for digital data acquisition. For rapid prototyping, use an Arduino or similar MCU to read the analog output pin through a voltage divider or directly if the ADC supports 4V logic. Ensure the sensor is placed in an area with representative airflow to utilize the diffusion-based sensing effectively.
