TMP36 Temperature Sensor - (AD3348)

Description:

The TMP36 is a low-voltage temperature sensor with Celsius accuracy. It provides a voltage output that is linearly proportional to the Celsius temperature. It also requires no external calibration to provide a typical accuracy of ±1°C at +25°C and ±2°C over a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. We like it because it is very easy to use: Just ground the device to 2.7 to 5.5 VDC and read the voltage on the Vout pin. The output voltage can be easily converted to temperature using the 10 mV/°C scaling factor.

Characteristics:

- Input voltage: 2.7V to 5.5VDC

- Scale factor of 10 mV / °C

- ± 2°C above precision temperature

- ± 0.5°C linearity

- Operating range: -40°C to + 125°C
