Product Overview

The LMT01 is a Texas Instruments 2-pin digital temperature sensor for pulse-count temperature measurement. It operates across a -50 to 150 °C free-air temperature range and uses VP and VN pins, where VP is the positive voltage pin and VN is the negative voltage pin/output. VP-VN recommended operation is 2 to 5.5 V, with an absolute maximum VP-VN rating of -0.3 to 6 V.

The device reports temperature through an output pulse interface. The rated output pulse range is 15 to 3228 pulses, while the theoretical output range is 1 to 4095 pulses. Resolution is 0.0625 °C per pulse, with 808 pulses typical at 0 °C and an output pulse frequency of 88 kHz typical.

Package choices include TO-92/LPG 4.00 mm x 3.15 mm and WSON/DQX 1.70 mm x 2.50 mm. Thermal response time depends on package and medium, including 0.4 s in stirred oil for WSON/DQX and 28 s in still air for TO-92/LPG.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for LMT01, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For analog and signal-chain sourcing, supply voltage, bandwidth, accuracy, noise level, package, temperature grade, input/output configuration and qualification requirements should be verified before approval.

FAQ

What type of sensor is the LMT01?

The LMT01 is a Texas Instruments 2-pin digital temperature sensor. It uses VP and VN pins and provides temperature information through a pulse-count output interface rather than a parallel or serial digital bus.

What temperature range does the LMT01 support?

The LMT01 operating free-air temperature sensing range is -50 to 150 °C. Accuracy ratings vary by temperature band, including ±0.5 °C max from -20°C to 90°C at VP-VN from 2.15 V to 5.5 V.

What packages are listed for the LMT01?

The extracted package data lists TO-92/LPG at 4.00 mm x 3.15 mm and WSON/DQX at 1.70 mm x 2.50 mm. Thermal response and thermal resistance values differ between the package options.

How does the LMT01 encode temperature output?

The device uses a pulse-count interface with 0.0625 °C per pulse resolution. The rated output pulse range is 15 to 3228 pulses, and the pulse count at 0°C is listed as 800 minimum, 808 typical, and 816 maximum.
