Product details
Overview
STHS34PF80TR from STMicroelectronics is a factory-calibrated, uncooled infrared presence and motion detection sensor based on TMOS thermal transistor technology. It detects stationary and moving human-sized objects up to 4 meters without lens, operates across 5–20 µm IR spectrum, delivers 2000 LSB/°C object temperature sensitivity, and integrates ambient temperature sensing with ±0.3 °C accuracy over –10 to +60 °C - deployed in smart lighting and security systems.
For engineers reviewing the STHS34PF80TR datasheet, STHS34PF80TR pinout, STHS34PF80TR application, or STHS34PF80TR equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs (1.7–3.6 V supply, 10 µA active current), interface details (I²C/SPI selectable via CS pin), field-of-view (80°), noise performance (25 LSBrms), and real-world use cases including presence-triggered IoT devices and overtemperature-aware industrial enclosures.
Technical Context
The STHS34PF80TR uses a differential TMOS sensor array with one exposed and one shielded thermal transistor element, enabling rejection of self-heating effects. Its ASIC implements three configurable detection modes - presence, motion, and ambient temperature shock - each driven by independent low-pass filtered signal paths and programmable thresholds (PRESENCE_THS, MOTION_THS, TAMB_SHOCK_THS).
It supports dual digital interfaces on shared pins: I²C (slave address 0x5A) and 3-wire SPI, selected by logic level on CS pin. Programmable output data rates range from 0.25 Hz to 30 Hz, plus one-shot mode, with interrupt assertion (INT pin) for flag-driven system wake-up and event handling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 1.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, coin cell, and 3.3 V embedded rails. |
| Supply current | 10 µA at 1 Hz ODR - enables multi-year battery life in always-on IoT endpoints. |
| IR sensitivity | 2000 LSB/°C - enables reliable detection of sub-0.1 °C object temperature changes at full FOV. |

Pinout & Package
LGA-10L package: 3.2 × 4.2 × 1.455 mm (max), RoHS and ECOPACK compliant, surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SCL / SPC | I²C clock / SPI clock | Shared bidirectional clock input; requires external pull-up for I²C; no pull-up needed for SPI. |
| 2 RES | Reserved | Must be connected to GND; no internal function. |
| 3 CS | Interface select | High = I²C enabled; Low = SPI enabled; internal pull-up defaults to I²C mode. |

| 10 INT | Interrupt output | Active-low open-drain output asserting PRES_FLAG, MOT_FLAG, or TAMB_SHOCK_FLAG events. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Differential TMOS architecture | Rejects self-heating drift by comparing exposed/shielded thermal transistors - enables stable long-term presence detection. |
| Programmable gain modes | Default mode (–40 to +85 °C, ±2 °C delta) and wide mode (–90 to +50 °C delta) - selectable via CTRL0 register for varying thermal environments. |
| Smart detection algorithms | On-chip presence/motion/ambient-shock logic eliminates host MCU processing overhead and reduces firmware complexity. |
| Integrated silicon IR filter | Monolithically deposited bandpass filter (5–20 µm) - blocks visible light and NIR, eliminating need for external optical filters. |
| Factory calibration | Per-device offset/gain coefficients stored in nonvolatile registers - removes need for end-user calibration in production. |
Applications
| Smart Lighting Control | Occupancy-Aware Security System |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar infrared presence and motion detection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMG8833 (Panasonic) | 8×8 thermal array (64 pixels); higher resolution but 6.5 mA active current; no built-in presence/motion logic. | Requires external MCU for algorithm execution; suited for thermal imaging, not simple presence triggering. | Select when pixel-level thermal mapping is needed; avoid for battery-powered presence-only use cases. |
| MLX90640 (Melexis) | 32×24 IR array; 1.8 V–3.6 V supply; 12 mA active current; I²C only; ±1.5 °C ambient accuracy. | Higher power and cost; used in gesture recognition and HVAC airflow analysis, not low-cost occupancy sensing. | Choose for high-resolution thermal profiling; not recommended where 10 µA operation and factory-calibrated presence logic are critical. |
Compared with AMG8833 and MLX90640, the STHS34PF80TR delivers presence/motion decisions autonomously at 1/600th the active current, with integrated ambient compensation and no host processing burden - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-operated smart building nodes.

FAQ
Does the STHS34PF80TR require an external lens to detect humans at 4 meters?
No. The STHS34PF80TR achieves up to 4-meter detection range for 70 × 25 cm² objects without any external lens, thanks to its high-sensitivity TMOS architecture and 80° field of view defined by the LGA package window. External optics may extend range or narrow FOV but are not necessary for baseline operation.
How does the device distinguish between stationary and moving objects?
It uses two parallel low-pass filtered TMOS signal paths (LPF_P_M and LPF_P for presence; LPF_P_M and LPF_M for motion) and compares their difference against independently programmable thresholds (PRESENCE_THS and MOTION_THS). Motion detection triggers on transient differentials; presence holds state during sustained differential - both validated by on-chip logic.
What is the role of the RES and NC pins?
Pin 2 (RES) is reserved and must be connected to GND per datasheet; it has no internal function. Pin 5 (NC) is not internally bonded and must remain unconnected - neither pin may be tied to VDD, signal lines, or left floating in violation of Table 14's default pin status guidance.
Can the STHS34PF80TR operate reliably in direct sunlight?
Yes. Its monolithic silicon IR filter restricts response to 5–20 µm wavelengths, blocking visible light and near-infrared (NIR) energy from solar sources. Measured RMS noise remains at 25 LSBrms under irradiance conditions that saturate unfiltered PIR sensors, ensuring stable operation behind glass or polycarbonate windows.
