Peltier controller is an electronic module which is designed for regulating the thermal load temperature. By using a
Peltier module, the temperature of the thermal load can be increased or decreased, which depends on the current direction going through the two terminals of the TEC. Peltier controller can regulate the temperature of the thermal load with high efficiency and accuracy.
Here is a popular Peltier controller in US and global market, TEC5V6A-D. This Peltier controller comes with a 90% efficiency. The maximum output current is 6A, and the maximum output voltage is VPS-0.3V. This Peltier controller has a high stability low noise 3.0V voltage reference which is used for setting the desired object temperature by using a Potentiometer or a DAC. This reference can be used by an ADC, and the measurement error will be independent of the reference voltage, resulting in a more accurate measurement.
There are two versions for this Peltier controller, TEC5V6A-D and TEC5V6A-DA:
For TEC5V6A-D, TEMP=Off when SDNG=0
For TEC5V6A-DA, TEMP=On when SDNG=0
Users can choose a proper version for their design.
