Smoke Detection Solutions from Analog Devices

Three of every five fire-related deaths in the U.S. occurred in properties without smoke detectors. Smoke detectors save lives, but only when they are used properly. In properties with smoke detectors, nearly one in four deaths (23%) occurred where smoke detectors were not working, or were disabled due to frequent false alarms. Leveraging our deep sensor expertise, Analog Devices can provide integrated solutions to help manufacturers engineer better smoke detectors.

Smoke detector manufacturers face four critical challenges:

Higher performance to reduce the frequency of false alarms, which result in consumers disabling or turning off the units
New regulatory requirements (UL217, EN54/14604)
Power consumption that requires frequent battery replacement
Reducing smoke detector size to enable easier architectural integration and aesthetic appeal

Benefits of ADI Smoke Detection Solutions

Space-saving integrated module – photodiode, AFE and LEDs
On-chip calibration reduce factory end-of-lie calibration requirements
Reduces Power dissipation
Particle size estimation using two LEDs reduces false alarm
Enables UL217-compliant detectors
