LMT87LP

The LMT87LP is an analogue output Temperature Sensor with an analogue output voltage that is linearly and inversely proportional to temperature. Its features make it suitable for many general temperature sensing applications. It can operate down to 2.7V supply with 5.4µA power consumption. A class-AB output structure gives the LMT87 sensor, strong output source and sink current capability that can directly drive up to 1.1nF capacitive loads. This means it is well suited to drive an analogue-to-digital converter sample-and-hold input with its transient load requirements. It has accuracy specified in the operating range of -50 to 150°C. Other features also make the sensor an alternative to thermistors.
