Analog DevicesADN8831-EVALZDevelopment Kits and Tools

ADN8831 TEC Controller Evaluation Board. The ADN8831 evaluation board offers a configurable design platform to work with various TECs and thermistors. On the evaluation board, the ADN8831 delivers and controls a bidirectional TEC current using two pairs of complementary MOSFETs in an H-bridge configuration.

With the on-board, adjustable components, the evaluation board provides configurability of temperature setpoint, temperature setpoint range, TEC current and/or voltage limits, and a PID compensation network. The temperature setpoint range (factory default) circuit, optimized to work with 10 kΩ negative temperature coefficient thermistors, can also work with other types of temperature sensors.
