ZTP 135 IR circuit

I want to have a circuit design and how to use the sensor ZTP 135 IR. I want to apply it to measure human skin temperature and expect the output to be voltage. I have looked at its datasheet but can not find the connection schematic. The best I can found is here http://www.thermometrics.com/assets/images/thermopile.pdf but it does not specify the values (R, C, V). I'm new to electronics, and I just need a circuit to implement. Any specific help will be welcomed. Thank you.

Go to the GE website and get the Data Sheet for the device. It should provide you with the details and usually include a nominal hookup circuit to drive and read the output.
I would guess at this point that VCC is probably 3-5v DC. Output is probably analog, so you would be looking at an OpAmp and an ADC to digitize the output.
Once you get the Data Sheet, you can probably hookit up to one of Jeremy's Arduino circuits that measures a light sensor.

Dear DAB,

I tried to post the datasheet link here but it didnot appear. Ok here is the datasheet http://www.ge-mcs.com/download/temperature/920-159B-LR.pdf and the circuit http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/solutions_bulletins/medical04-08/AD8538_large.html again. As you see, there is no circuit in the datasheet itself, so I seek for a way to use it.

Google for "thermopile amplifier" - lots of hits, the first few Analog Devices ones are quite useful.
