More accuracy from digital temperature
sensors
Two new digital temperature sensors feature single-wire PWM outputs to offer the industry's most powerful combination of performance, low power consumption and small package size.
Building on the company's industry-leading expertise in convertor technology, Analog Devices has introduced two digital temperature sensors with single-wire pulsewidth-modulation (PWM) outputs that offer the industry's most powerful combination of performance, low power consumption and small package size The output of the TMP05 and TMP06 is a square wave; its duty cycle is proportional to the absolute temperature

A/D convertor measures smaller signals faster
Sigma-delta ADC achieves greater than true 16bit noise-free resolution up to 2.4kHz across all input voltages from 40mV to 5V.
Both devices offer accuracy to +/-1C from 0 to +70C, an operating temperature range from -55 to +150C, and a supply voltage range of +2.7 to +5.5V.
They are available in space-saving five-lead SC-70 and SOT-23 packages.
Both devices offer three modes of operation: daisychain (allowing designers to connect any number of TMP05/06 sensors to the same microcontroller), continuously converting, and one-shot mode, which reduces the power consumption to 8.25uW.
The TMP05 has a push-pull output (CMOS/TTL), whereas the TMP06 has an open-drain output.
Their combination of accuracy, low power and small package size make them ideal for battery and portable applications found in the industrial process control, consumer, instrumentation, and medical industries.
Both the TMP05 and TMP06 are priced at $0.95 per unit in 1000-piece quantities and are now available for sampling.
