GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DS600 is a ±0.5°C accurate analog-output
temperature sensor. This accuracy is valid over its
entire operating voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and
the wide temperature range of -20°C to +100°C. The
DS600 can also act as a thermostat, with user-
programmable trip points. A shutdown mode enables
the DS600 to be placed in a low-power standby state.
The DS600 is available in an 8-pin µSOP package.

PIN DESCRIPTION
PIN NAME FUNCTION
1 VDD 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 VTH. In shutdown mode, (SD = 1), TO is low.
3 TO A ctive-Low Thermostat Output. Open-drain output transitions from high to low when the output
voltage exceeds VTH. In shutdown mode, (SD = 1), TO is high.
4 VOUT Temperatu re Output. Outputs a voltage that is proportional to the die temperature in degrees
centigrade. In shutdown mode, this pin goes high-Z.
5 VTH Thermostat Trip Voltage. User-selectable voltage that sets the thermostat trip-point temperature.
TO and TO are asserted when VOUT 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.
PAD
PAD. Connect to GND or float. DO NOT CONNECT TO SUPPLY. The exposed pad is the best
way to conduct temperature into the package. Connecting PAD to a ground plane can assist in
properly measuring the temperature of the circuit board.

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, VOUT, that is proportional to degrees centigrade. The output voltage
characteristic is factory-calibrated for a typical output gain (ΔV/ΔT) of +6.45mV/°C and a DC offset (VOS) of 509mV.
Its operating temperature range is -40°C to +125°C, corresponding to an output voltage range of 251mV to
1315mV. (VOUT = Device Temperature (°C) x ΔV/ΔT + VOS). 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.

THERMOSTAT OPERATION
The DS600 can also be used as a thermostat with either an active-high (TO) or active-low (TO) output. To function
as a thermostat, a precise voltage reference equal to the desired threshold must be applied to the VTH pin. When
the temperature with the equivalent voltage value is reached (voltage on VOUT = voltage on VTH), thermostat outputs
TO and TO become active. Figure 3 shows an example thermostat application circuit.
