Microchip | MCP9701A-E/TO

Microchip Technology is a leading innovator and supplier of high performance and high quality embedded solutions and microcontrollers; related non-volatile memory products; and a broad analog product line focusing on power management, thermal management, linear and mixed-signal solutions.

Temperature sensing is critical to a growing number of consumer, automotive, and industrial applications. Microchip’s Linear Active Thermistor™ Integrated Circuits are sensors whose output voltage is directly proportional to measured temperature.

The MCP9700/9700A and MCP9701/9701A temperature sensor series are suitable for applications that require measurement of a relative change of temperature in the range of -40C to +125C. The temperature coefficient is scaled to provide a 1°C/bit resolution for an 8-bit ADC and their voltage output pin can be directly connected to the ADC input of a microcontroller.

The MCP9701A has accuracy of ±2°C from 0°C to +70°C while consuming 6 µA (typical) of operating current. The output of the MCP9700 is calibrated to a slope of 19.53mV/°C and has a DC offset of 400mV. The offset allows reading negative temperatures without the need for a negative supply. To accommodate different printed circuit board assembly needs the MCP9701A is offered in both through-hole (TO-92) and surface mount (SOT-23 and SC-70) device type packages.

The MCP9701A-E/TO is a TO-92 Voltage Output Temperature Sensor that comes in a 1000 piece bag.
