NOISE IMMUNITY
The LM26LV/LM26LV-Q1 is virtually immune from false triggers on the OVERTEMP and OVERTEMP digital
outputs due to noise on the power supply. Test have been conducted showing that, with the die temperature
within 0.5°C of the temperature trip point, and the severe test of a 3 Vpp square wave "noise" signal injected on
the VDD line, over the VDD range of 2V to 5V, there were no false triggers.
TRIP TEST Digital Input
The TRIP TEST pin simply provides a means to test the OVERTEMP and OVERTEMP digital outputs
electronically by causing them to assert, at any operating temperature, as a result of forcing the TRIP TEST pin
high.
When the TRIP TEST pin is pulled high the VTEMP pin will be at the VTRIP voltage.
If not used, the TRIP TEST pin may either be left open or grounded.
VTEMP Analog Temperature Sensor Output
The VTEMP push-pull output provides the ability to sink and source significant current. This is beneficial when, for
example, driving dynamic loads like an input stage on an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). In these applications
the source current is required to quickly charge the input capacitor of the ADC. See the Applications Circuits
section for more discussion of this topic. The LM26LV/LM26LV-Q1 is ideal for this and other applications which
require strong source or sink current.
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS
The LM26LV/LM26LV-Q1's supply-noise rejection (the ratio of the AC signal on VTEMP to the AC signal on VDD)
was measured during bench tests. It's typical attenuation is shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section. A load capacitor on the output can help to filter noise.
For operation in very noisy environments, some bypass capacitance should be present on the supply within
approximately 2 inches of the LM26LV/LM26LV-Q1.
CAPACITIVE LOADS
The VTEMP Output handles capacitive loading well. In an extremely noisy environment, or when driving a switched
sampling input on an ADC, it may be necessary to add some filtering to minimize noise coupling. Without any
precautions, the VTEMP can drive a capacitive load less than or equal to 1100 pF as shown in Figure 21. For
capacitive loads greater than 1100 pF, a series resistor is required on the output, as shown in Figure 22, to
maintain stable conditions.
