PIN DESCRIPTION
PIN NAME
FUNCTION
1
V
DD
Supply Voltage.
2.7V to 5.5V
2 TO
Active-High Thermostat Output.
Open-drain output transitions from low to high when the output
voltage exceeds V
TH
. In shutdown mode, (SD = 1), TO is low.
3
TO
Active-Low Thermostat Output.
Open-drain output transitions from high to low when the output
voltage exceeds V
TH
. In shutdown mode, (SD = 1),
TO is high.
4
V
OUT
Temperature Output.
Outputs a voltage that is proportional to the die temperature in degrees
centigrade. In shutdown mode, this pin goes high-Z.
5
V
TH
Thermostat Trip Voltage.
User-selectable voltage that sets the thermostat trip-point temperature.
TO and
TO are asserted when V
OUT
crosses this voltage. (No on-chip hysteresis is present).
6 SD
Shutdown.
Power consumption and thermal sensor function are controlled through SD. This pin
functions as an active-high input pin. Driving this pin high puts the device in a low-power state and
discontinues thermal sensing.
7
CTG
Must be connected to GND.
8 GND
Ground.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
The DS600 analog temperature sensor measures it own temperature and provides these measurements to the
user in the form of an output voltage, V
OUT
, that is proportional to degrees centigrade. The output voltage
characteristic is factory-calibrated for a typical output gain (
∆
V/
∆
T) of +6.45mV/°C and a DC offset (V
OS
) of 509mV.
Its operating temperature range is -40°C to +125°C, corresponding to an output voltage range of 251mV to
1315mV. (V
OUT
= Device Temperature (°C) x
∆
V/
∆
T + V
OS
). The DS600 has ±0.5°C accuracy over a -20°C to
+100°C temperature range and over the full 2.7V to 5.5V voltage range. Because the output voltage is positive for
the entire temperature range, there is no need for a negative supply.
Figure 2 shows the output voltage characteristic for the DS600.
