This sensor Features a serial interface that allows munication with a host controller or other peripherals. The TC72 interface is patible with the SPI protocol. The TC72 does not require any additional external ponents. However, it is remended that a decoupling capacitor of 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF be provided between the VDD and GND pins. The TC72 can be used either in a Continuous Temperature Conversion mode or a One-Shot Conversion mode. The Continuous Conversion mode measures the temperature approximately every 150 ms and stores the data in the temperature registers. In contrast, the One-Shot mode performs a single temperature measurement and returns to the power saving shutdown mode. The TC72 Features high temperature accuracy, easeof-use and is the ideal solution for implementing thermal management in a variety of systems. The device is available in both 8-pin MSOP and 8-pin DFN spacesaving packages. The TC72 also Features a shutdown mode for low power operation.
