===Overview===

The Melexis MLX90614 is a digital infrared radiation sensor. It is used to measure the surface temperature when flying at low altitudes. It measures both the sensor temperature and the object (sensor) temperature.

[http://www.melexis.com/Infrared-Thermometer-Sensors/Infrared-Thermometer-Sensors/MLX90614-615.aspx MLX90614 product homepage]

module: ir_mlx

===Hardware===

The board does have a 3.3V I2C interface.

Supplier:

[http://www.futureelectronics.com/en/technologies/semiconductors/analog/sensors/temperature/Pages/4179966-MLX90614ESF-BAA-000-TU.aspx?IM=0 Future Electronics]

[http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9570 Sparkfun]

===Usage===

To use the infrared radiation sensor:
{{Box Code|conf/airframes/myplane.xml|
<source lang="xml">
<modules>
<load name="ir_mlx.xml"/>
</modules>
</source>
}}

===One-time-configuration===

(tbd)

The I2C address is stored in internal flash memory and is usually ''randomly'' set. To set it to a useful value put the below setting only once while setting it up:

{{Box Code|conf/airframes/myplane.xml|
<source lang="xml">
<load name="ir_mlx.xml">
<define name="IR_MLX_ONE_TIME CONFIG" value="1"/>
</load>
</source>
}}

===NOTES===

If flying at higher altitudes the infrared radiation from the in-between water vapor is also measured.
