LMT01
SNIS189A –JUNE 2015–REVISED JUNE 2015
LMT01 0.5°C Accurate 2-Pin Digital Output Temperature Sensor with Pulse Count
Interface
1 Features
3 Description
The LMT01 is a high-accuracy, 2-pin temperature
sensor with an easy-to-use pulse count interface
which makes it an ideal digital replacement for PTC
or NTC thermistors both on and off board in
automotive, industrial, and consumer markets. The
LMT01 digital pulse count output and high accuracy
over a wide temperature range allow pairing with any
MCU without concern for integrated ADC quality or
availability, while minimizing software overhead. TI’s
LMT01 achieves flat ±0.5°C accuracy with very fine
resolution (0.0625°C) over a wide temperature range
of -20°C to 90°C without system calibration or
hardware/software compensation.

Precision Digital Temperature Measurement
Simplified in a 2-Pin Package

Read with Processor Timer Input
Number of Output Pulses is Proportional to
Temperature with 0.0625°C Resolution
Unlike other digital IC temperature sensors, LMT01’s
single wire interface is designed to directly interface
with a GPIO or comparator input, thereby simplifying
hardware implementation. Similarly, the LMT01's
integrated EMI suppression and simple 2-pin
architecture makes it ideal for on-board and off-board
temperature sensing. The LMT01 offers all the
simplicity of analog NTC or PTC thermistors with the
added benefits of a digital interface, wide specified
performance, EMI immunity, and minimum processor
resources.
