SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated Device
Technology, Inc. (IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI), is enabling its
customers to design and create new products for improving indoor
air quality with today's introduction of its latest firmware for
its ZMOD™ family of integrated gas sensors. The new firmware
enables the IDT® ZMOD4410 sensors to be easily configured to detect
gases that indicate the presence of odors in kitchens and
bathrooms, making them ideal for automatic exhaust fans and other
air changing systems. Unlike other sensor solutions on the market
that only have one type of fixed output, the ZMOD4410 sensors have
the ability to detect volatile organic compounds (VOC) in
individual rooms. The sensor algorithms in this new release will
learn the standard environment of these rooms and report changes in
gas levels.
"This firmware is the latest example of IDT's ongoing efforts of
enabling the ZMOD4410 sensors to detect a broader range of gases
and to giving product designers and manufacturers more choices and
flexibility in creating new products to address indoor air
quality," said Mario Montana, vice
president and general manager of IDT's automotive and industrial
group. "Our ZMOD4410 integrated gas sensors are a superior solution
for manufacturers, as the hardware remains constant while the
'method of operation' – the firmware – can be easily upgraded to
provide sensitivity for various gases related to odors."
The ZMOD4410 gas sensors are an excellent solution for a wide
range of indoor air quality applications, including smart
thermostats, air purifiers, smart HVAC equipment and other "smart
home" devices. They offer best-in-class stability and sensitivity
for measuring VOCs, volatile sulfur compounds (VSC) and other
gases. Another key advantage is its advanced ASIC-based hardware
platform, which supports software configurability and allows for a
rapid release of new sensing capabilities on a single
platform.
The ZMOD4410 sensors are also electrically and chemically tested
to ensure consistency from lot to lot, an important advantage for
manufacturers with long production runs. The ZMOD4410 devices offer
best-in-class reliability as a result of receiving complete
qualification for harsh use cases – such as siloxanes – and from an
unprecedented life characterization.
The ZMOD4410 is the first member of the ZMOD family. It is
available in a 12-pin LGA assembly that measures 3mm x 3mm. Visit
