3.4 OperatingTemperatures
Thermal requirements specific to Rev7 are listed below. The sensor has three operating states in
order to manage high temperatures: Active, Shot Limiting, or Inactive. In the standard Active state
thesensorwillperformtotherangeand precision specifications of the datasheet. When the sensor
reachesacertaintemperature(seetablebelowforreference),itentersShotLimitingstateandissues
analert.
In Shot Limiting state, the sensor reduces power to the lasers in order to reduce the thermal load.
