5.1 MLX90614 Configurator overview
be used with the EVB90614 evaluation board for evaluating Melexis MLX90614 infrared
thermometers. Using this software, features and performance of MLX90614 infrared
thermometers can be evaluated. All basic configurations of MLX90614 are also supported
in user-friendly format. Configuration is written in EEPROM of each MLX90614 and will be
the POR default afterwards. This way the MLX90614 can be further used without EVB in
target applications.
