We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "PIR",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Motion detector IC turns the lights on from
Elmos Semiconductor, which we summarised at the time by saying "Fully integrated motion detector for PIR sensors incorporates brightness control for lighting circuits".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release IR sensor cuts space required from
TTI Europe: "The volume occupied by the SMD PIR sensor is 30% that required by traditional PIR sensors, resulting in lower costs".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Cypress Semiconductor
concerning its CY3236A-PIRMOTION:
- take a look at Development kit aids quick design implementation
which says: "Cypress Semiconductor's new development kit provides a hardware implementation that uses a single component to condition the PIR sensor signal and control the sensor system".
Take a look also at the news release from Murata Electronics (UK), PIR sensor enables much smaller designs,
as well as Relays, timers and detectors come together from Finder,
and Ripple detection chips join standard product range from Elmos Semiconductor.
