Infineon Technologies XENSIV™ PAS CO2 sensor

High performance in a small size – disruptive CO2 PAS sensor

Increasingly efficient building insulation can help to mitigate the effects of climate change, but heavily insulated buildings are not always good for human health. Poor ventilation can result in lower oxygen levels and a build-up of carbon dioxide (CO2). Even moderate levels of CO2 can have a negative impact on health and productivity. Already at 1000 ppm, people begin to experience drowsiness and have difficulty concentrating. Consequently, there is a growing demand for smart indoor air quality sensors that can "smell" rising levels of CO2 and either alert the user or trigger a system response.

Key features

Operating range: 0 ppm to 32000 ppm
Accuracy: ± (30 ppm +3%) of reading between 400 ppm and 5000 ppm
Interface: I2C, UART, and PWM
Average power consumption: 30 mW typically at 1 measurement/minute

Additional features

Exceptionally small form factor (14 x 13.8 x 7.5 mm)
Accurate and robust performance at ppm level (±30 ppm ±3% of reading)
SMD package delivered in tape and reel
Advanced compensation and self-calibration algorithms
Various configuration options (e.g. sampling rate, baseline calibration) and interfaces (UART, I2C, PWM)

Additional benefits

Space savings in customers and products
High-quality data and compliance with smart building standards
Cost-effective high-volume assembly and easy system integration
Plug & play for fast design-to-market
Customer flexibility thanks to a variety of configuration options
