Brief Description

The TSic™ temperature sensor IC family are fully tested and calibrated sensors with absolute measurement accuracy on delivery – no further calibration needed. The TSic™ combines outstanding accuracy with long term stability, yet it is very simple to use. The TSic™ series is specifically designed for high performance, cost-effective solutions for sensing temperature in building automation, automotive, industrial, office automation, white goods and low-power/mobile applications. TSic™ employs a high precision bandgap reference with PTAT output; a low-power, precision ADC; and an on-chip DSP core with EEPROM to precisely calibrate the output temperature signal. The TSic™ series includes ICs with two linear analog signal output options, such as standard 0 to 1Vout (Supply voltage (V+) = 3.0V to 5.5V) or ratiometric (10~90% of supply voltage); or the digital serial output signal for interfacing with microcontrollers.

Key Features

  • Low cost, precision temperature sensor
  • Output TSic 201: Analog 0 to 1 Volt signal
    Output TSic 206: Single-wire 11-bit digital serial signal,
    Communication range > 10 meters
  • Resolution: 0.1°C
  • Accuracy: ±0.5°C over span of 80°C
  • Wide measurement range: –50 to +150 °C
  • Signal read-out every 0.1s (other rates available on request)
  • Supply Voltage 3.0V to 5.5V; high accuracy operation in range 4.5V to 5.5V
  • Package: 8-pin SOIC, TO92
  • Low quiescent current to minimize self-heating and power consumption (TSic 206: 45µA typ.)
  • System-on-chip based on advanced mixedsignal CMOS technology integrating precision temperature sensing bandgap reference with proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT) output, digital signal processor (DSP) core, and electrically erasable memory (EEPROM)

Benefits

  • Several accuracy classes available with 100% upward compatibility
  • No calibration by customer needed; absolute calibration specified
  • Simple to integrate, reducing cost and time for application-development
  • Fast data measurement – optimal for temperature control
  • Packages for standard SMD, THT or application specific assembly
