your body wants to get rid of carbon dioxide. That means you don’t want a lot of it in the air you breathe. Amphenol Advanced Sensors Telaire T6713 are miniature, energy efficient CO2 modules that provide high accuracy CO2 measurements for applications including indoor air quality monitoring and demand control ventilation. The sensors are factory calibrated to measure CO2 concentration levels up to 5000 parts per million and use ABC Logic, a patented self-calibration technique that eliminates the need for calibration in most applications while maintaining high accuracy throughout the life of the sensor.
The modules measure just 30 millimeters by 15.6 millimeters by 8.6 millimeters for use in confined spaces, and they consume very little current for low power operation. The sensor interfaces to host microcontrollers with I-squared-C or UART interfaces or using a PWM output.
