Peltier module is also called TEC module, short for thermo-electric cooler. ATE1-07 series Peltier modules come with 7 pairs of Peltier elements inside the module. There are two flat ceramic plates on the both sides, which are used to be mounted onto other surfaces by inserting thermal conductive materials, such as thermal pad or thermal conductive paste.
This Peltier module is used to regulate the temperature for objects and stabilize the temperature in a certain temperature range. TEC modules are widely applied in the fields such as solid state lasers, optical components, and CCD’s, etc. The maximum input voltage is 0.8V and 0.9V, and the maximum temperature differences can be 61.5°C and 74°C between the two plates of TEC modules. TEC modules usually have two versions, sealed and non-sealed. The former seals the outer edge between the two ceramic plates, which the latter doesn't.
Peltier modules can work with heat sink, TEC controller and thermistors to control the temperature in some systems.
