TC1046
General description
The TC1046 is a linear output temperature sensor whose output voltage is directly proportional to measured temperature. The TC1046 can accurately measure temperature from -40°C to +125°C.
The output voltage range for these devices is typically 174mV at -40°C, 424mV at 0°C, 580 mV at +25°C, and 1205mV at +125°C. A 6.25mV/°C voltage slope allows for the wide temperature range.
The TC1046 is packaged in a 3-Pin SOT-23B package, making them ideal for space critical applications.

CAUTION
The sample version of OSS-ECAL is not intended to be used with Threads (Tasks) or interrupts of different priority. Please do not use it as in the example below.
Example: If each sensor is assigned to the same ADC group and the OSS-ECAL API is executed in processes with different priorities, correct values may not be obtained.
ADC Gr0 Ch0 Temperature sensor AD22100A 100ms cycle Thread (low priority) to take in temperature
ADC Gr0 Ch1 Pressure sensor MPX5999D Event interrupts (high priority) to take pressure
