Summary of TEXAS INSTRUMENTS ANNOUNCES ULTRA-THIN, 1.2-V TO 1.8-V SUPPLY, HIGH ACCURACY DIGITAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR WITH I2C INTERFACE
Texas Instruments announced the TMP114, an ultra-thin (0.15 mm) 4-pin high-precision digital temperature sensor with I2C/SMBus compatibility. It delivers ±0.3 °C accuracy (–10 °C to +85 °C), 16-bit ADC resolution (0.0078 °C), low supply range (1.08–1.98 V), and very low power (0.7 μA active, 0.16 μA shutdown). The sensor supports 1.2-V logic inputs, optional CRC checksum, NIST traceability, and comes in a PicoStar DSBGA package for placement under surface-mount components.
Parts used in the TMP114 Temperature Sensor Project:
