The TC620 and TC621 are programmable logic output
temperature detectors designed for use in thermal manage-
ment applications. The TC620 features an on-board tem-
perature sensor, while the TC621 connects to an external
NTC thermistor for remote sensing applications.
3 Both devices feature dual thermal interrupt outputs
(HIGH LIMIT and LOW LIMIT), each of which program with
a single external resistor. On the TC620, these outputs are
driven active (high) when measured temperature equals the
user-programmed limits. The CONTROL (hysteresis) out-
put is driven high when temperature equals the high limit
setting, and returns low when temperature falls below the
low limit setting. This output can be used to provide simple
4 ON/OFF control to a cooling fan or heater. The TC621
provides the same output functions except that the logical
states are inverted.
The TC620/621 are usable over a maximum tempera-
ture range of – 40°C to +125°C.
