DESCRIPTION
The LM50/LM50-Q1 is a precision integrated-circuit
temperature sensor that can sense a −40°C to
+125°C temperature range using a single positive
supply. The LM50/LM50-Q1's output voltage is
linearly proportional to Celsius (Centigrade)
temperature (+10 mV/°C) and has a DC offset of
+500 mV. The offset allows reading negative
temperatures without the need for a negative supply.
The ideal output voltage of the LM50/LM50-Q1
ranges from +100 mV to +1.75V for a −40°C to
+125°C temperature range. The LM50/LM50-Q1 does
not require any external calibration or trimming to
provide accuracies of ±3°C at room temperature and
±4°C over the full −40°C to +125°C temperature
range. Trimming and calibration of the LM50/LM50-
Q1 at the wafer level assure low cost and high
accuracy. The LM50/LM50-Q1's linear output, +500
mV offset, and factory calibration simplify circuitry
required in a single supply environment where
reading negative temperatures is required. Because
the LM50/LM50-Q1's quiescent current is less than
130 μA, self-heating is limited to a very low 0.2°C in
still air.
