The TMP35, TMP36, and TMP37 are low voltage, precision centigrade temperature sensors. They provide a voltage output that is linearly proportional to the Celsius (Centigrade) temperature. The TMP35/TMP36/TMP37 do not require any external calibration to provide typical accuracies of 1°C at 25°C and 2°C over the 40°C to 125°C temperature range. The low output impedance of the TMP35/TMP36/ TMP37, linear output, and precise calibration simplify interfacing to temperature control circuitry and A/D converters. All three devices are intended for single supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V maximum. Supply current runs well below 50 µA providing very low self-heating, less than 0.1°C in still air. In addition, a shutdown function is provided to cut supply current to less than 0.5 µA. The TMP35 is functionally-compatible with the LM35/LM45 and provides a 250 mV output at 25°C. The TMP35 reads temperatures from 10°C to 125°C. The TMP36 is specified from 40°C to 125°C, provides a 750 mV output at 25°C and operates to 125°C from a single 2.7 V supply. Both the TMP35 and TMP36 have an output scale factor of 10 mV/°C. The TMP37 is intended for applications over the range 5°C to 100°C, and provides an output scale factor of 20 mV/°C. The TMP37 provides a 500 mV output at 25°C. Operation extends to 150°C with reduced accuracy for all devices when operating from a 5 V supply. The TMP35/TMP36/TMP37 are all available in low cost 3-pin TO-92, and SO-8 and 5-pin SOT-25 surface mount packages.

An equivalent circuit for the TMP3x family of micropower, centigrade temperature sensors is shown in Figure 1. At the heart of the temperature sensor is a bandgap core, which is comprised of transistors Q1 and Q2, biased by Q3 to approximately 8 µA. The bandgap core operates both Q1 and Q2 at the same collector current level; however, since the emitter area of Q1 is 10 times that of Q2, Q1's VBE and Q2's VBE are not equal by the following relationship:

The output voltage of the temperature sensor is available at the emitter of Q4 which buffers the bandgap core and provides load current drive. Q4's current gain, working with the available base current drive from the previous stage, sets the short-circuit current limit of these devices to 250 µA.

APPLICATIONS SECTION Shutdown Operation

Mounting Considerations

All TMP3x devices include a shutdown capability that reduces the power supply drain to less than 0.5 µA, maximum. This feature, available in only the SO-8 and the SOT-25 packages, is TTL/CMOS level compatible­provided that the temperature sensor supply voltage is equal in magnitude to the logic supply voltage. Internal to the TMP3x at the SHUTDOWN pin, a pull-up current source to VIN is connected. This permits the SHUTDOWN pin to be driven from an open-collector/drain driver. A logic LOW or zero-volt condition on the SHUTDOWN pin is required to turn the output stage OFF. During shutdown, the output of the temperature sensors becomes a high impedance state where the potential of the output pin would then be determined by external circuitry. If the shutdown feature is not used, it is recommended that the SHUTDOWN pin be connected to VIN (Pin 8 on the SO-8, Pin 2 on the SOT-25). The shutdown response time of these temperature sensors is illustrated in Figures 10, 11, and 12.

If the TMP3x temperature sensors are thermally attached and protected, they can be used in any temperature measurement application where the maximum temperature range of the medium is between 40°C to 125°C. Properly cemented or glued to the surface of the medium, these sensors will be within 0.01°C of the surface temperature. Caution should be exercised especially with TO-92 packages because the leads and any wiring to the device can act as heat pipes, introducing errors if the surrounding air-surface interface is not isothermal. Avoiding this condition is easily achieved by dabbing the leads of the temperature sensor and the hookup wires with a bead of thermally conductive epoxy. This will ensure that the TMP3x die temperature is not affected by the surrounding air temperature. Because plastic IC packaging technology is used, excessive mechanical stress should be avoided when fastening the device with a clamp or a screw-on heat tab. Thermally conductive epoxy or glue, which must be electrically non-conductive, is recommended under typical mounting conditions.

TMP35/TMP36/TMP37
These temperature sensors, as well as any associated circuitry, should be kept insulated and dry to avoid leakage and corrosion. In wet or corrosive environments, any electrically isolated metal or ceramic well can be used to shield the temperature sensors. Condensation at very cold temperatures can cause errors and should be avoided by sealing the device using electrically nonconductive epoxy paints or dips, or any one of many printed circuit board coatings and varnishes.
Thermal Environment Effects Basic Temperature Sensor Connections

The thermal environment in which the TMP3x sensors are used determines two important characteristics: self-heating effects and thermal response time. Illustrated in Figure 18 is a thermal model of the TMP3x temperature sensors which is useful in understanding these characteristics.
Tj
JC

The circuit in Figure 19 illustrates the basic circuit configuration for the TMP3x family of temperature sensors. The table shown in the figure illustrates the pin assignments of the temperature sensors for the three package types. For the SOT-25, Pin 3 is labeled as "NC" as well as Pins 2, 3, 6, and 7 on the SO-8 package. It is recommended that no electrical connections be made to these pins. If the shutdown feature is not needed on the SOT-25 or the SO-8 package, the SHUTDOWN pin should be connected to VS.

In the TO-92 package, the thermal resistance junction-to-case, JC, is 120°C/W. The thermal resistance case-to-ambient, CA, is the difference between JA and JC, and is determined by the characteristics of the thermal connection. The temperature sensor's power dissipation, represented by PD, is the product of the total voltage across the device and its total supply current (including any current delivered to the load). The rise in die temperature above the medium's ambient temperature is given by:

Thus, the die temperature rise of a TMP35 "RT" package mounted into a socket in still air at 25°C and driven from a 5 V supply is less than 0.04°C. The transient response of the TMP3x sensors to a step change in the temperature is determined by the thermal resistances and the thermal capacities of the die, CCH, and the case, CC. The thermal capacity of the case, CC, varies with the measurement medium since it includes anything that is in direct contact with the package. In all practical cases, the thermal capacity of the case is the limiting factor in the thermal response time of the sensor and can be represented by a single-pole RC-time constant response. Figures 13 and 15 illustrate the thermal response time of the TMP3x sensors under various conditions. The thermal time constant of a temperature sensor is defined to be the time required for the sensor to reach 63.2% of the final value for a step change in the temperature. For example, the thermal time constant of a TMP35 "S" package sensor mounted onto a 0.5" by 0.3" PCB is less than 50 sec in air, whereas in a stirred oil bath the time constant is less than 3 sec.

Note the 0.1 µF bypass capacitor on the input. This capacitor should be a ceramic type, have very short leads (surface mount would be preferable), and located as close a physical proximity to the temperature sensor supply pin as practical. Since these temperature sensors operate on very little supply current and could be exposed to very hostile electrical environments, it is important to minimize the effects of RFI (Radio-Frequency Interference) on these devices. The effect of RFI on these temperature sensors in specific and analog ICs in general is manifested as abnormal dc shifts in the output voltage due to the rectification of the high frequency ambient noise by the IC. In those cases where the devices are operated in the presence of high frequency radiated or conducted noise, a large value tantalum capacitor ( 2.2 µF) placed across the 0.1 µF ceramic may offer additional noise immunity.
Fahrenheit Thermometers

Although the TMP3x temperature sensors are centigrade temperature sensors, a few components can be used to convert the output voltage and transfer characteristics to read Fahrenheit temperatures directly. Shown in Figure 20a is an example of a simple Fahrenheit thermometer using either the TMP35 or the TMP37. This circuit can be used to sense temperatures from 41°F to 257°F with an output transfer characteristic of 1 mV/°F using the TMP35 and from 41°F to 212°F using the TMP37 with an output characteristic of 2 mV/°F. This particular approach does not lend itself well to the TMP36 because of its inherent 0.5 V output offset. The circuit is constructed with an AD589, a 1.23 V voltage reference, and 4 resistors whose values for each sensor are shown in the figure table. The scaling of the

­8­

output resistance levels was to ensure minimum output loading on the temperature sensors. An generalized expression for the circuit's transfer equation is given by:

At the expense of additional circuitry, the offset produced by the circuit in Figure 20b can be avoided by using the circuit in Figure 20c. In this circuit, the output of the TMP36 is conditioned by a single-supply, micropower op amp, the OP193. Although the entire circuit operates from a single 3 V supply, the output voltage of the circuit reads the temperature directly with a transfer characteristic of 1 mV/°F, without offset. This is accomplished through the use of an ADM660, a supply voltage inverter. The 3 V supply is inverted and applied to the P193's V terminal. Thus, for a temperature range between 40°F and 257°F, the output of the circuit reads 40 mV to 257 mV. A general expression for the circuit's transfer equation is given by:

Average and Differential Temperature Measurement

Figure 20a. TMP35/TMP37 Fahrenheit Thermometers

The same circuit principles can be applied to the TMP36, but because of the TMP36's inherent offset, the circuit uses two less resistors as shown in Figure 20b. In this circuit, the output voltage transfer characteristic is 1 mV/°F, but is referenced to the circuit's common; however, there is a 58 mV (58°F) offset in the output voltage. For example, the output voltage of the circuit would read 18 mV, if the TMP36 is placed in 40°F ambient environment, and 315 mV at 257°F.

In many commercial and industrial environments, temperature sensors are often used to measure the average temperature in a building or the difference in temperature between two locations on a factory floor or in an industrial process. The circuits in Figures 21a and 21b demonstrate an inexpensive approach to average and differential temperature measurement. In Figure 21a, an OP193 is used to sum the outputs of three temperature sensors to produce an output voltage scaled by 10 mV/°C that represents the average temperature at three locations. The circuit can be extended to as many temperature sensors as required so long as the circuit's transfer equation is maintained. In this application, it is recommended that one temperature sensor type be used throughout the circuit; otherwise, the output voltage of the circuit will not produce an accurate reading of the various ambient conditions.

The circuit in Figure 21b illustrates how a pair of TMP3x sensors can be used with an OP193 configured as a difference amplifier to read the difference in temperature between two locations. In these applications, it is always possible that one temperature sensor would be reading a temperature below that of the other sensor. To accommodate this condition, the output of the OP193 is offset to a voltage at one-half the supply via R5 and R6. Thus, the output voltage of the circuit is measured relative to this point, as

TMP35/TMP36/TMP37
Microprocessor Interrupt Generator

These inexpensive temperature sensors can be used with a voltage reference and an analog comparator to configure an interrupt generator useful in microprocessor applications. With the popularity of fast 486 and Pentium* laptop computers, the need to indicate a microprocessor over-temperature condition has grown tremendously. The circuit illustrated in Figure 22 demonstrates one way to generate an interrupt using a TMP35, a CMP402 analog comparator, and a REF191, a 2 V precision voltage reference. The circuit has been designed so as to produce a logic HIGH interrupt signal if the microprocessor temperature exceeds 80°C. This 80°C trip point was chosen arbitrarily (final value set by the microprocessor thermal reference design) and is set using an R3-R4 voltage divider of the REF191's output voltage. Since the output of the TMP35 is scaled by 10 mV/°C, the voltage at the CMP402's inverting terminal is set to 0.8 V. Since temperature is a slowly moving quantity, the possibility for comparator chatter exists. To avoid this condition, hysteresis is used around the comparator. In this application, a hysteresis of 5°C about the trip point was arbitrarily chosen; the ultimate value for hysteresis should be determined by the end application. The output logic voltage swing of the comparator with R1 and R2 determine the amount of comparator hysteresis. Using a 3.3 V supply, the output logic voltage swing of the CMP402 is 2.6 V; thus, for a hysteresis of 5°C (50 mV @ 10 mV/°C), R1 is set to 20 k and R2 is set to 1 M. An expression for this circuit's hysteresis is given by:
R1 VHYS = R2 VLOGIC SWING, CMP402

Thermocouple Signal Conditioning with Cold-Junction Compensation

The circuit in Figure 23 conditions the output of a Type K thermocouple, while providing cold-junction compensation, for temperatures between 0°C and 250°C. The circuit operates from single 13.3 V to 15.5 V supplies and has been designed to produce an output voltage transfer characteristic of 10 mV/°C. A Type K thermocouple exhibits a Seebeck coefficient of approximately 41 µV/°C; therefore, at the cold junction, the TMP35 with an temperature coefficient of 10 mV/°C is used with R1 and R2 to introduce an opposing cold-junction temperature coefficient of 41 µV/°C. This prevents the isothermal, cold-junction connection between the circuit's PCB tracks and the thermocouple's wires from introducing an error in the measured temperature. This compensation works extremely well for circuit ambient temperatures in the range of 20°C to 50°C. Over a 250°C measurement temperature range, the thermocouple produces an output voltage change of 10.151 mV. Since the required circuit's output full-scale voltage is 2.5 V, the gain of the circuit is set to 246.3. Choosing R4 equal to 4.99 k sets R5 equal to 1.22 M. Since the closest 1% value for R5 is 1.21 M, a 50-k potentiometer is used with R5 for fine trim of the full-scale output voltage. Although the OP193 is a superior single-supply, micropower operational amplifier, its output stage is not rail-to-rail; as such, the 0°C output voltage level is 0.1 V. If this circuit were to be digitized by a single-supply ADC, the ADC's common should be adjusted to 0.1 V accordingly.
Using TMP3x Sensors in Remote Locations

Since the likelihood that this circuit would be used in close proximity to high speed digital circuits, R1 is split into equal values and a 1000 pF is used to form a low-pass filter on the output of the TMP35. Furthermore, to prevent high frequency noise from contaminating the comparator trip point, a 0.1 µF capacitor is used across R4. *Pentium TM

In many industrial environments, sensors are required to operate in the presence of high ambient noise. These noise sources take on many forms; for example, SCR transients, relays, radio transmitters, arc welders, ac motors, et cetera. Furthermore, they may be used at considerable distance from the signal conditioning circuitry. These high noise environments are very typically in the form of electric fields, so the voltage output of the temperature sensor can be susceptible to contamination from these noise sources.

Figure 23. A Single-Supply, Type K Thermocouple Signal Conditioning Circuit with Cold-Junction Compensation

Illustrated in Figure 24 is a way to convert the output voltage of a TMP3x sensor into a current to be transmitted down a long twisted-pair shielded cable to a ground referenced receiver. The temperature sensors do not possess the capability of high output current operation; thus, a garden variety PNP transistor is used to boost the output current drive of the circuit. As shown in the table, the values of R2 and R3 were chosen to produce an arbitrary full-scale output current of 2 mA. Lower values for the full-scale current are not recommended for the minimum-scale output current produced by the circuit could be contaminated by nearby ambient magnetic fields operating in vicinity of the circuit/cable pair. Because of the use of an external transistor, the minimum recommended operating voltage for this circuit is 5 V. Note, to minimize the effects of EMI (or RFI) both the circuit's and the temperature sensor's supply pins are bypassed with good quality, ceramic capacitors.

A Temperature to 4­20 mA Loop Transmitter

In many process control applications, two-wire transmitters are used to convey analog signals through noisy ambient environments. These current transmitters use a "zero-scale" signal current of 4 mA that can be used to power the transmitter's signal conditioning circuitry. The "full-scale" output signal in these transmitters is 20 mA. A circuit which transmits temperature information in this fashion is illustrated in Figure 25. Using a TMP3x as the temperature sensor, the output current is linearly proportional to the temperature of the medium. The entire circuit operates from the REF193's +3 V output. The REF193 requires no external trimming for two reasons: (1) the REF193's tight initial output voltage tolerance and (2) the low supply current of TMP3x, the OP193, and the REF193. The entire circuit consumes less than 3 mA from a total budget of 4 mA. The OP193 regulates the output current to satisfy the current summation at the noninverting node of the OP193. A generalized expression for the KCL equation at the OP193's Pin 3 is given by:

TMP35/TMP36/TMP37
The 4 mA offset trim is provided by P2, and P1 provides the circuit's full-scale gain trim at 20 mA. These two trims do not interact because the noninverting input of the OP193 is held at a virtual ground. The zero-scale and full-scale output currents of the circuit are adjusted according to the operating temperature range of each temperature sensor. The Schottky diode, D1, is required in this circuit to prevent loop supply power-on transients from pulling the noninverting input of the OP193 more than 300 mV below its inverting input. Without this diode, such transients could cause phase reversal of the operational amplifier and possible latchup of the transmitter. The loop supply voltage compliance of the circuit is limited by the maximum applied input voltage to the REF193 and is from 9 V to 18 V.

Another common method of transmitting analog information from a remote location is to convert a voltage to an equivalent in the frequency domain. This is readily done with any of the low cost, monolithic voltage-to-frequency converters (VFCs) available. Theses VFCs feature a robust, open-collector output transistor for easy interfacing to digital circuitry. The digital signal produced by the VFC is less susceptible to contamination from external noise sources and line voltage drops because the only important information is the frequency of the digital signal. As long as the conversions between temperature and frequency are done accurately, the temperature data from the sensors can be reliably transmitted. The circuit in Figure 26 illustrates a method by which the outputs of these temperature sensors can be converted to a frequency using the AD654. The output signal of the AD654 is a square wave that is proportional to the dc input voltage across Pins 4 and 3. The transfer equation of the circuit is given by:

An offset trim network (fOUT OFFSET ) is included with this circuit to set fOUT at 0 Hz when the temperature sensor's minimum output voltage is reached. Potentiometer P1 is required to calibrate the absolute accuracy of the AD654. The table in the figure illustrates the circuit element values for each of the three sensors. The nominal offset voltage required for 0 Hz output from the TMP35 is 50 mV; for the TMP36 and TMP37, the offset voltage required is 100 mV. In all cases for the circuit values shown, the output frequency transfer characteristic of the circuit was set at 50 Hz/°C. At the receiving end, a frequency-to-voltage converter (FVC) can be used to convert the frequency back to a dc voltage for further processing. One such FVC is the AD650.

TMP35/TMP36/TMP37
Driving Long Cables or Heavy Capacitive Loads

Although the TMP3x family of temperature sensors is capable of driving capacitive loads up to 10,000 pF without oscillation, output voltage transient response times can be improved with the use of a small resistor in series with the output of the temperature sensor, as shown in Figure 27. As an added benefit, this resistor forms a low-pass filter with the cable's capacitance which helps to reduce bandwidth noise. Furthermore, since the temperature sensor is likely to be used in environments where the ambient noise level can be very high, this resistors helps to prevent rectification by the devices of the high frequency noise. The combination of the this resistor and the supply bypass capacitor offers the best protection.
+VS

For example, if the desired operating temperature of an IC is 25°C and has been subjected to test temperature of 150°C, the acceleration factor is:
F = 3.23 10-4

With this background information, the TMP3x family's longterm stability can be mapped to what its equivalent observed shift would be at TA = 25°C. As quoted in the data sheet, the long-term stability of these temperature sensors after 1000 hours at 150°C is 0.4°C. This shift is equivalent to 0.01°C/day at TJ = 150°C. To determine what the observed shift would be at TA = 25°C is a matter of applying the acceleration factor calculated above to this result:

Thus, if any of the TMP3x devices were to be used at 25°C, then the observed shift would be no more than 0.003 m°C per day, or 0.1 m°C per month. Calculating the observed shift for any other operating temperature is simply a matter of calculating a new acceleration factor.

Commentary on Long-Term Stability

The concept of long-term stability has been used for many years to describe by what amount an IC's parameter would shift during its lifetime. This is a concept that has been typically applied to both voltage references and monolithic temperature sensors. Unfortunately, integrated circuits cannot be evaluated at room temperature (25°C) for 10 years or so to determine this shift. As a result, manufacturers very typically perform accelerated lifetime testing of integrated circuits by operating ICs at elevated temperatures (between 125°C and 150°C) over a shorter period of time (typically, between 500 and 1000 hours). As a result of this operation, the lifetime of an integrated circuit is significantly accelerated due to the increase in rates of reaction within the semiconductor material. A well-understood, and universal, model used by the semiconductor industry that relates the change in rates of reaction to a change in elevated temperatures is the Arrhenius model. From the Arrhenius model, an acceleration factor can be calculated and applied to the parameter specified. For example, this acceleration factor can be used to reduce a temperature sensor's long-term stability (e.g., 0.4°C after 1000 hours at TJ = 150°C) to an observed shift in that parameter at 25°C. For any semiconductor device, the acceleration factor is expressed as:
F = exp Ea k 1 T1 1 T2

where F = Calculated acceleration factor; E a = activation energy in eV = 0.7 eV; k = Boltzmann's constant = 8.63 x 10-5 eV/K; T1 = Test temperature in Kelvin, TJ = 150°C = 423.15 K; and T2 = Desired operating temperature in Kelvin, TJ = 25°C = 298.15 K
