Smart Analog Sensor Interface for Smoke Detection With
Ambient Light Cancellation Reference Design
Description
This reference design provides a low BOM cost
smoke detector design that passes UL217 9
sensitivity and fire room tests. Using a modulation-
based photoelectric architecture, this reference design
is able to achieve high rejection of ambient light
for application in chambered or chamberless smoke
detection. This design also has a high signal-to-
noise ratio (SNR) for the entire signal chain that
enables robust algorithms for reduced false alarms in
smoke detector applications and particulate sensing
in air-quality sensing applications. This design makes
use of the low-power modes of the MSPM0L1306
microcontroller to achieve 10 years of battery life from
a 9-V alkaline battery.
