The MCP9700/9700A and MCP9701/9701A family
measures temperature by monitoring the voltage of a
diode located in the die. A low-impedance thermal path
between the die and the PCB is provided by the pins.
Therefore,
temperature of the PCB. However, the thermal path for
the ambient air is not as efficient because the plastic
device package functions as a thermal insulator from
the die.
insulates the die and restricts device thermal
response
silicon temperature sensors. If the application requires
measuring ambient air, the PCB needs to be designed
with proper thermal conduction to the sensor pins.
The
designed to source/sink 100 µA (max.). The power
dissipation due to the output current is relatively
insignificant. The effect of the output current can be
described using Equation 4-2.
