Overview

The T6713 is a miniature NDIR CO2 sensor module designed for high-accuracy indoor air quality monitoring and building automation. It features a measurement range of 0 to 2000 ppm and supports both I2C and UART digital interfaces for seamless integration into embedded systems. The module is factory calibrated and incorporates ABCLogic (Automatic Background Calibration) to ensure long-term stability and maintenance-free operation.

Why Choose This Part

The module offers high accuracy of +/-3% and utilizes Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology to prevent cross-sensitivity with other gases. Its small form factor and low power consumption (20mA typical) make it suitable for compact, energy-efficient designs, while the dual I2C/UART interface provides flexible digital communication options.

Applications

Demand Controlled Ventilation (DCV)
Optimizes HVAC energy consumption by adjusting fresh air intake based on real-time CO2 levels and occupancy.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Monitors
Used in desktop and wall-mounted air quality loggers to provide high-accuracy carbon dioxide readings in ppm.
Smart Building Systems
Integrates into building management systems (BMS) via I2C to trigger air filtration or ventilation alerts.

Getting Started

Connect the module to a 5V power supply and interface via the 2.54mm pitch pins to an I2C or UART bus. For I2C communication, utilize standard libraries on platforms like Arduino or ESP32, ensuring the logic levels are compatible or using level shifters if interfacing with 3.3V MCUs. The T6713-EVAL kit is also available from the manufacturer for rapid prototyping and software development.
