Reference design and algorithm shrinks smoke detector design

According to Analog Devices (ADI), the CN0537 reference design and algorithm enables small form factor, low power, smoke detector designs to be rapidly prototyped and brought to market quickly and at a reduced cost.

The CN0537 Arduino form factor smoke detector reference design has been tested and verified to UL 217 Standard for Smoke Alarms, eighth edition. The reference design uses Analog Devices’ ADPD188BI optical sensor core combined with precision smoke chamber for reduced nuisance alarms.

The CN0537 has a data package for algorithm development including more than 1,000 smoke datasets taken at UL-217-certified facilities. The software provides data pre-processing, initialisation, calibration and environmental compensation source code.

Analog Devices adds that the low power hardware design and low computational algorithm extending battery life and reduce battery size and cost.

The accompanying EVAL-CN0537-ARDZ reference hardware is available now, together with the EVAL-ADICUP3029, the EVAL-CN0537-DATA (UL 217 test datasets files and CN0537 source code, excluding the detection algorithm) and the EVAL-CN0537-ALGO, which has the UL 217 test datasets files and CN0537 source code, including the detection algorithm and additionally MATLAB and Python UL 217 projects. This option also provides 10 hours of phone support.
