ams CCS8xx Product Family Of VOC Sensors Enhances End-User Experience for Indoor Air-Quality Monitoring
Summary
PREMSTAETTEN, Austria--( BUSINESS WIRE )--ams (SIX:AMS), a leading worldwide supplier of high performance sensor solutions, has updated the functionality of its market-leading CCS8xx family of gas sensor ICs to reduce initialization time and improve performance in indoor air-quality monitoring applications.Now an indication of the indoor air quality level via a relative value for total VOC (TVOC) or equivalent CO 2 (eCO 2 ) can be used almost immediately after initial power-on in the end product.This means that OEM customers can greatly reduce or even eliminate any burn-in process implemented at the factory and still provide end users with immediate out-of-the-box operation when integrated into an indoor air quality monitoring application.Therefore ams CCS8xx sensors continue to offer a reliable option for OEMs that require high resistance to siloxanes in typical indoor environments.“Since people spend on average 90% of their time indoors, there are enormous benefits both to health and comfort to the use of devices based on the CCS801 or CCS811 which monitor the air quality in the home, workplace or car.”
