Broadcom Thin Film Pyroelectric Flame Sensors

Broadcom / Avago Thin Film Pyroelectric Flame Sensors are infrared flame detectors with high responsivity and a wide field of view of typically 100° (*subject to filter band pass specification). The flame sensors feature class-leading rapid recovery from thermal and electrical shocks (typically < 1-second downtime). In addition, the sensors offer excellent signal-to-noise at the signature 8Hz to 10Hz flicker range of a flame and achieve accurate discrimination of flame sources in triple I_R flame detection systems.

The Broadcom / Avago Thin Film Pyroelectric Flame Sensors element is built into a low noise circuit with an internal CMOS op amp with a 10GΩ feedback resistor outputting a voltage signal centered around half the supply rail.
