Non-contact infrared forehead thermometer solution

 Solution introduction: Non-contact infrared thermometer is a new instrument that uses modern sensor measurement technology, microelectronic technology and other technical means to measure the temperature of the measured object. When the infrared thermometer is aligned and close to the measured object to the effective distance detected by the digital proximity sensor, press the power/measurement key and hold it for a few seconds, then the infrared sensor module inside the infrared thermometer will collect the temperature , And converted into electrical signals, followed by the conversion of electrical signals into digital signals, and then transmitted to the microcontroller through the communication interface. The MCU collects the current ambient temperature through a digital temperature sensor, performs corresponding temperature compensation processing on the transmitted temperature digital signal, and stores the corrected temperature as the current record number, and at the same time determines the LCD backlight range where the temperature is located, so as to perform the corresponding backlight display : (35.0-37.4℃) normal backlight with green body temperature, (37.5-37.9℃) yellow backlight with high body temperature, (38-42.9℃) red backlight with super high body temperature, if the body temperature is abnormal, "dididididididididi" will also be carried out Alarm, and finally voice broadcast the current temperature. When not used for more than 30 seconds, it automatically enters a low-power mode to save power.

 Solution hardware block diagram: This non-contact infrared forehead thermometer solution consists of ultra-low power consumption and high security MCU: RJM8L151, power supply module, key module, infrared sensor module, temperature sensor (module), digital proximity sensor module, Ambient temperature sensor, voice module, speaker and LCD display module, the hardware block diagram is as follows:

1. Microcontroller MCU

It adopts the ultra-low power consumption and high security RJM8L151 series MCUs launched by Wuhan Renajet Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. The chip has excellent running and standby power consumption performance, supports 4-way IO wake-up chip, internally integrated 12-bit high-precision successive approximation ADC, 2-channel multi-function comparator, timer, real-time clock (RTC), watchdog Dog timer (WDT), power programmable voltage detection (PVD), interrupt controller, hardware true random number generator, AES/DES/SM4 hardware encryption engine and communication interface: UATR, SPI, IIC, GPIO, ISO7816, JTAG Such modules have the characteristics of high cost performance, large storage capacity, high security, low power consumption and rich interfaces. The chip supports KeiluVision or IAR integrated development environment to develop and debug application code. The hardware block diagram of RJM8L151 series safety MCU is shown in the figure below.

2. Power module

It is powered by 2 AAA dry batteries, and the voltage conversion chip is used to maintain the output voltage of the power module to ensure that the MCU, infrared sensor, digital proximity sensor, voice chip, LCD screen and other modules work normally and stably when the battery voltage drops.

3. Sensor module

3.1 The body temperature sensor module can choose two different strategies:

A) The integrated infrared sensor module is used. The module includes an infrared thermopile sensor and a special processing chip. The advantage is that the circuit is stable, the interface is simple, and the debugging is easy. The disadvantage is that the price is higher. The sensor signals can be MLX90614, HMS K1C1 F5.5 and 10TP583T, etc. The examples are as follows:

The infrared sensor part of the infrared sensor MLX90614 is the 81101 thermoelectric unit, 81101 is the infrared thermopile sensor, which receives the infrared radiation signal of the target object, and then uses the internal DSP signal processing special integrated chip MLX90302 and 17-bit ADC for signal amplification, signal processing, etc. Process, output by PWM or SMBus (compatible with standard speed IIC) measurement accuracy can reach 0.2%, measurement speed is fast, low power consumption MLX90614 supports sleep mode. The digital temperature sensor is mainly used to measure the ambient temperature, so that the infrared sensor can be used as a temperature compensation to improve the accuracy, and the digital proximity sensor is used to detect the effective distance during temperature measurement

B) The use of thermopile sensors + peripheral circuits has the advantage of lower cost, but the disadvantage is that small signal amplification and processing circuits and temperature compensation circuits require careful design and debugging, and the product design cycle is longer. The sensor signal can be MTP10-B7F55, RTP678, etc. The examples are as follows:

Using Sonich's MTP10-B7F55, it can achieve fast and high-precision temperature measurement, its built-in NTC can realize ambient temperature measurement to perform temperature compensation to improve accuracy, and its application method can be flexibly selected. The principle is as follows:

(A) Software temperature compensation (b) Hardware temperature compensation

(C) Analog interface (d) Digital interface

3.2 Digital proximity sensor

It is used to judge the distance between the measured object and the PIR sensor. Only when the object distance ratio is the best, the measurement is started to ensure the accuracy of the measurement data, such as TMD26721.

3.3 Ambient temperature sensor

Its function is to obtain the ambient temperature at the time of measurement, so as to remove the ambient temperature from the measured value of the infrared temperature sensor, obtain the temperature of the human body to be measured, and compensate the infrared temperature sensor. Some ambient temperature sensors are integrated into thermopile sensors, such as MTP10-B7F55.
