Atmel Corporation, a global leader in microcontroller (MCU) and touch
technology solutions, has launched the industry's first family of
high-precision digital temperature sensors with the widest Vcc range
from 1.7V to 5.5V. The new family delivers higher temperature accuracy
and faster I2C bus communication speeds, and are available with
integrated nonvolatile registers and serial EEPROM memory making them
ideal for consumer, industrial, computer, and medical applications.
With the widest Vcc range in the industry, the new temperature sensor family allows customers to purchase one device to cover all their Vcc requirements in a variety of applications. Currently, digital temperature sensors on the market are available with a very limited Vcc range requiring customers to purchase multiple temperature sensors in their overall bill of materials (BOM) and utilizing multiple devices to cover the different voltage ranges across various applications. Atmel's new family of digital temperature sensors allows customers to select just one device to cover all Vcc requirements in various applications, reducing their overall BOM. The new family also delivers a higher accuracy rate at +/-0.5°C accuracy (typical) across the 0°C to +85°C temperature range across the entire wide voltage range (1.7V to 5.5V). The low voltage operation of the devices also reduce the overall power consumption in applications such as portable handheld consumer devices, enabling longer battery life.
