SLOS877C October 2014 – April 2021 TMP451-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TMP451-Q1 device allows for a different η-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 shows this voltage and temperature.
The value η in Equation 1 is a characteristic of the particular transistor used for the remote channel. The power-on reset value for the TMP451-Q1 device is η = 1.008. The value in the η-factor correction register may be used to adjust the effective η-factor according to Equation 2 and Equation 3.
The η-factor correction value must be stored in twos complement format, yielding an effective data range from –128 to 127. The η-factor correction value is written to and read from pointer address 23h. The register power-on reset value is 00h, thus having no effect unless a different value is written to it.
