SBOS527G December 2010 – September 2025 TMP411-Q1 , TMP411D-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TMP411-Q1 and TMP411D-Q1 allow for a different n-factor value to be used for converting remote channel measurements to temperature. The remote channel uses sequential current excitation to extract a differential VBE voltage measurement to determine the temperature of the remote transistor. Equation 1 relates this voltage and temperature.
The value n is a characteristic of the particular transistor used for the remote channel. The default value for the TMP411-Q1 and TMP411D-Q1 devices is n = 1.008. The value in the N-Factor Correction Register can be used to adjust the effective n-factor according to Equation 2 and Equation 3.
The n-correction value must be stored in two’s-complement format, yielding an effective data range from −128 to 127, as shown in Table 8-6. The n-correction value can be written to and read from pointer address 18h. The register power-on-reset value is 00h, which is not affected unless the value is written to.
