JAJSPB7 February 2024 TMP110
ADVANCE INFORMATION
When the Shutdown bit is set to 0b in the configuration register, the device operates in continuous conversion mode. Figure 7-5 shows the device in a continuous conversion cycle. In this mode, the device performs conversion at fixed intervals and updates the temperature result register, ALERT pin and flag at the end of every conversion. The typical active conversion time is around 10 ms.
The Conversion_Rate[1:0] bits in the configuration register controls the rate at which the conversions are performed. The device typically consumes 55 µA during conversion and 2.6 µA during the low power standby period. By decreasing the rate at which the conversion are performed, the application can benefit from reduced average current consumption in continuous mode.
Use Equation 1 to calculate the average current in continuous mode.
