Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a noncontact type temperature detecting device which can detect accurate temperature with simple constitution and its driving method. SOLUTION: This device has a temperature sensor 10 having a sensor element such as a thermopile detecting the temperature of an object without contacting and a circuit for inspection such as a wire-breaking detecting circuit 18 which is connected to the sensor element and detects the wire breaking of the sensor element. Further, the device is equipped with a switch element 20 which connects and disconnects the wire-breaking detecting circuit 18 and sensor element and a controller 22 which connects the operation of the switch element. While the switch element 20 is opened and the wire-breaking detection signal of the wire- breaking detecting circuit 18 does not flow to the sensor element, temperature detection is carried out with the output voltage of the sensor element.
