Hi Ian,
Thanks for your insight. The area of the heatsink "seen" by the TMP006 with either be painted or powder coated with a dark color. Will this yield a decent result?
Also, thanks for the offer to supply a more extensive set of calibration data. We'll take you up on this when we have the final mechanical parts and finishes, and take a final set of measurements.
Regarding the (TOBJECT-TDIE) best accuracy range of -10C to +30C, We'll perform testing outside this range. I think we can live within these limitations or at least compensate in our code when we're outside this range.
Best Regards,
Jim D.
