How much heat is needed to break CO2 down to CO?


I have found that because the oxygen is double bonded to carbon, it takes about $\mathrm{1500\ ^\circ C}$ to break it down from $\ce{CO2}$ to $\ce{C}$ and $\ce{O}$. But, I am curious, would it take less heat energy to break $\ce{CO2}$ down to $\ce{CO}$ and $\ce{O}$?

I have a question about matched filtering. Does the matched filter maximise the SNR at the moment of decision only? As far as I understand, ...
