SIMISTOR™ TEMPERATURE SENSOR
ULTRA-LOW-POWER SILICON THERMISTOR
New Release Specification
General Description
The aSM121 is a high-precision, 3-lead CMOS silicon
thermistor in an ultra-small leadless package that provides
a cost-effective solution for applications requiring high-
accuracy low-power temperature monitoring. The aSM121
functions in a way that is similar to a PTC thermistor.
However, it is linear-calibrated, enabling application
developers to directly interpret output voltage as
temperature without complex compensation for non-
linearity.
The aSM121 output voltage ramp has a positive slope of
10mV/°C that is independent of supply voltage. The
aSM121 has a guaranteed room temperature (25°C)
accuracy of ±1°C. The aSM121 does not require external
calibration - each device is calibrated at the factory.
