ProtoCentral MAX30205 Wearable Body Thermometer Breakout Board – QWIIC compatible

The QWIIC-compatible ProtoCentral MAX30205 breakout board is a wearable human body temperature sensor that reads with an accuracy of ±0.1 °C. This is a digital I²C-based sensor, so an ADC would not be required to read this sensor.

This version of the board is round and designed to be directly wearable by exposing an aluminium surface. The aluminium-base PCB helps in easy thermal conduction so that most of the heat gets transferred to the sensor, resulting in more accurate readings. The top side of this PCB is encapsulated in clear epoxy resin to make it waterproof.

Unlike our previous MAX30205 breakout board, what makes this one more wearable and fit for human body measurements is the use of a medical-grade biocompatible, flexible cable that does not irritate the skin.
