The RAQ Click Board™ is a compact add-on board targeted for use in refrigeration air quality (RAQ) applications. This board features the ZMOD4450, a gas sensor module designed for detecting gases associated with food ripening or rotting from Renesas Electronics Corporation. The module’s sense element consists of a heater element on a silicon-based MEMS structure and a metal temperature sensor. It measures the MOx conductivity, which is a function of the gas concentration, and measurement results read via the I2C interface. This Click Board™ makes an excellent choice for various applications like refrigerator systems control or as monitors for fruit and vegetable quality, shipping, and storage conditions.
The RAQ Click is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click Board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
