Description

The MCP9800 is a digital temperature sensor capable of reading temperatures from -55°C to +125°C. Temperature data is measured from an integrated temperature sensor and converted to digital word with a user selectable 9 to 12-bit Sigma Delta Analog to Digital Converter.The MCP9800 notifies the host controller when the ambient temperature exceeds a user programmed set point. The ALERT output is programmable as either a simple comparator for thermostat operation or as a temperature event interrupt. Communication with the sensor is accomplished via a two-wire bus that is compatible with industry standard protocols. This permits reading the current temperature, programming the set point and hysteresis and configuring the device. Small physical size, low installed cost and ease of usemake the MCP9800 an ideal choice for implementingsophisticated temperature system management schemes in a variety of applications.

Microchip Technology Inc.'s MCP9800/1/2/3 family of digital temperature sensors converts temperatures between -55°C and +125°C to a digital word. They provide an accuracy of ±1°C (max.) from -10°C to +85°C.

The MCP9800/1/2/3 family comes with user-programmable registers that provide flexibility for temperature sensing applications. The register settings allow userselectable 9-bit to 12-bit temperature measurement resolution, configuration of the power-saving Shutdown and One-shot (single conversion on command while in the Shutdown) modes and the specification of both temperature alert output and hysteresis limits. When the temperature changes beyond the specified limits, the MCP9800/1/2/3 outputs an alert signal. The user has the option of setting the alert output signal polarity as an active-low or active-high comparator output for thermostat operation, or as temperature event interrupt output for microprocessor-based systems.

This sensor has an industry standard 2-wire, I²C™/ SMBus compatible serial interface, allowing up to eight devices to be controlled in a single serial bus. These features make the MCP9800/1/2/3 ideal for sophisticated multi-zone temperature-monitoring applications.
