PCT2075D,118 datasheet by NXP Semiconductors

PCT2075D,118 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating temperature range for the PCT2075D,118?
  The maximum operating temperature range for the PCT2075D,118 is -40°C to 125°C.
• How do I configure the PCT2075D,118 for remote temperature sensing?
  To configure the PCT2075D,118 for remote temperature sensing, connect the remote temperature sensor (e.g., thermistor or thermocouple) to the VTEMP pin, and use the internal ADC to measure the voltage. Then, use the temperature calculation formula provided in the datasheet to convert the voltage reading to a temperature value.
• What is the accuracy of the internal temperature sensor in the PCT2075D,118?
  The internal temperature sensor in the PCT2075D,118 has an accuracy of ±2°C (typical) over the operating temperature range of -20°C to 100°C.
• Can I use the PCT2075D,118 as a thermostat?
  Yes, the PCT2075D,118 can be used as a thermostat. You can set a temperature threshold using the TOS and THYST pins, and the device will output a signal when the temperature exceeds the setpoint.
• How do I interface the PCT2075D,118 with a microcontroller?
  The PCT2075D,118 can be interfaced with a microcontroller using the I2C bus. Connect the SCL and SDA pins of the PCT2075D,118 to the corresponding I2C pins on the microcontroller, and use the I2C protocol to read temperature data from the PCT2075D,118.
