AMG8852 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMG8852 is a digital infrared temperature sensor module manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, part of the Grid-EYE series. This 14-SMD module provides thermal array sensing with I2C output interface and operates across -20°C to 80°C. The AMG8852 is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing system support and new design implementations where this sensor technology is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AMG8852 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The primary substitute, AMG8854, maintains identical functional specifications across all critical parameters that determine interchangeability:

Key Substitution Parameters:

• Sensor Type: Digital, Infrared (IR)
• Sensing Temperature Range (Remote): -20°C ~ 100°C (IR)
• Output Type: I2C
• Supply Voltage: 5V
• Accuracy: ±3°C
• Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 80°C
• Package / Case: 14-SMD Module
• Features: Sleep Mode, Standby Mode, Thermal Array
• Base Product Number: AMG885

The AMG8854 differs from the AMG8852 in product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. standard module packaging), but maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility for direct substitution in circuit designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AMG8854 is the direct substitute for the AMG8852. Selection between these parts is determined by product lifecycle and supply chain requirements:

AMG8852 (Obsolete): Use only for legacy system maintenance or repair of existing installations where the original part number must be maintained for documentation purposes.

AMG8854 (Active): Use for all new designs and ongoing production. This part maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the AMG8852 while offering active product status and continuous manufacturer support. The AMG8854 includes RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, providing regulatory assurance for current manufacturing standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AMG8854 replace AMG8852 in existing circuit designs? A: Yes. The AMG8854 provides identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Both parts share the same I2C interface, 5V supply voltage, ±3°C accuracy, and 14-SMD module package. Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What is the difference between AMG8852 and AMG8854? A: The primary differences are product status and packaging format. The AMG8852 is obsolete with standard module packaging, while the AMG8854 is active with Tape & Reel packaging. All functional specifications remain identical.

Q: Does packaging format affect circuit compatibility? A: Packaging format (standard module vs. Tape & Reel) affects procurement and assembly processes but does not affect electrical or mechanical circuit compatibility. Both formats deliver the same 14-SMD module component.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts? A: The AMG8854 includes documented RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The AMG8852, being obsolete, may not have current compliance documentation. For new designs subject to regulatory requirements, the AMG8854 is the appropriate selection.

Q: What is the thermal array feature? A: The thermal array feature enables the sensor to detect temperature distribution across a spatial area using infrared sensing, providing multi-point thermal measurement capability within the -20°C to 100°C remote sensing range.
