Device Information

The TMP461-EP is high-accuracy, low-power remote temperature sensor monitor with a built-in local temperature sensor. The remote junctions are typically low-cost, discrete, NPN or PNP transistors or substrate thermal transistors that cant be integrated parts of microprocessors, microcontrollers, or field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Temperature is represented as a 12-bit digital code for both the local and remote sensors, providing a resolution of 0.0625C. The two-wire serial interface accepts the SMBus communication protocol with up to nine different pin-programmable addresses.
