DESCRIPTION
The LM20 is a precision analog output CMOS
integrated-circuit temperature sensor that operates
over a −55°C to 130°C temperature range. The
power supply operating range is 2.4 V to 5.5 V. The
transfer function of LM20 is predominately linear, yet
has a slight predictable parabolic curvature. The
accuracy of the LM20 when specified to a parabolic
transfer function is ±1.5°C at an ambient temperature
of 30°C. The temperature error increases linearly and
reaches a maximum of ±2.5°C at the temperature
range extremes. The temperature range is affected
by the power supply voltage. At a power supply
voltage of 2.7 V to 5.5 V the temperature range
extremes are 130°C and −55°C. Decreasing the
power supply voltage to 2.4 V changes the negative
extreme to −30°C, while the positive remains at
130°C.
The LM20 quiescent current is less than 10 μA.
Therefore, self-heating is less than 0.02°C in still air.
Shutdown capability for the LM20 is intrinsic because
its inherent low power consumption allows it to be
powered directly from the output of many logic gates
or does not necessitate shutdown at all.
