Next Generation MEMS thermopile IR sensor 2.0 for Internet of Things, smart homes, environment and energy technology

In the wake of increasing electronic gadget sales, the overheating problem for battery chargers has become an increasingly common safety issue. Overheating of chargers certainly can be caused by substandard chargers, faulty batteries, or by misuse of the chargers. In worst-case scenarios the devices melt or catch fire. Unsurprisingly, this kind of electrical fires have increased in recent years. When charging a smartphone or a tablet you provide a big boost of power into a small size battery, this in turn increases the risk of overheating since a considerable amount of energy is transferred into a smaller space (the battery).
