The LM61CIM3X/NOPB is typically used in industrial, consumer, and automotive applications where high accuracy and low power consumption are required, such as in temperature monitoring, thermal management, and HVAC systems.
The LM61CIM3X/NOPB is designed to minimize thermal gradients by using a thermally isolated sensor die and a low-thermal-resistance package, ensuring accurate temperature measurements even in the presence of thermal gradients.
Texas Instruments recommends a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and a thermal relief pattern around the device to minimize thermal resistance and ensure accurate temperature measurements.
The LM61CIM3X/NOPB has built-in EMI filtering and is designed to meet the IEC 61000-4-2 standard for electromagnetic compatibility, ensuring reliable operation in noisy environments.
Texas Instruments recommends a 2-point calibration procedure using a calibrated temperature source, such as a thermocouple or a platinum RTD, to ensure accurate temperature measurements across the operating range.
