LM95231 Datasheet TruTherm Precision Dual Remote Diode Temperature Sensor

Manufacturer: National Semiconductor (now Texas Instruments)

General Description

The LM95231 is a precision dual remote diode temperature sensor (RDTS) that uses National’s TruTherm technology.

The 2-wire serial interface of the LM95231 is compatible with SMBus 2.0.

The LM95231 can sense three temperature zones, it can measure the temperature of its own die as well as two diode connected transistors.
