I am looking to construct a POC of a thermal sensor / camera, IoT device. I would like to use an Arduino and hook to the Devantech USB-TPA64 AMG8833 Thermopile Array, will the Devantech interface with an Arduino?
Ideally I would use a sensor made for the arduino or RPi but it is very difficult to find stock right now due to the coronavirus.
Ultimately I want to mix the sensor data with a video feed.
Thanks.
Hello @Regulus and welcome to the community,
Looks to me that the USB-TPA64 is a combination of the regular I2C TPA64 (shown below) and a USB-I2C adapter
So the 5 pins on the bottom left corner of the USB-TPA64 are I2C
If that’s true you could connect it to the Arduino like this
However, I would suggest contacting the manufacturer to be sure: [email protected]
It did seem like that with the solder points.
Thanks.
