Resistor-Programmable Temperature Switch and Analog
Temperature Sensor
General Description
The LM57 is a precision, dual-output, temperature switch with
integrated analog temperature sensor. The trip temperature
(TTRIP) is programmable by using two external 1% resistors.
Using extremely small packaged resistors (0.5 mm x 1 mm),
the LM57 can be programmed to any of 256 trip temperatures
while consuming very little board space. The VTEMP output
delivers an analog output voltage which is proportional with a
negative temperature coefficient (NTC) to the measured tem-
perature.
Built-in temperature hysteresis (THYST) keeps the output sta-
ble in an environment of thermal oscillation. The digital tem-
perature switch outputs will go active when the die tempera-
ture exceeds TTRIP and will release when the temperature falls
below a temperature equal to TTRIP minus THYST. One of the
digital outputs, TOVER, is active-high with a push-pull structure.
The other digital output, TOVER, is active-low with an open-
drain structure.
Driving the TRIP-TEST input high will make the digital outputs
active. A processor can read the logic level of the temperature
switch outputs, confirming that they changed to their active
state. This allows for in-situ verification that the comparator
and output circuitry are functional after system assembly.
When the TRIP-TEST pin is high, the trip-level reference volt-
age appears at the Vtemp pin. The system could then use this
voltage to calibrate the sensor for even tighter accuracy. Ty-
ing TOVER to TRIP-TEST will latch the output after it trips. It
can be cleared by forcing TRIP-TEST low or powering off the
LM57.
As it draws only 28µA max from its supply, it has very low self-
heating, about 0.02°C in still air.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to
be functional, but specific performance is not guaranteed. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The Human Body Model (HBM) is a 100 pF capacitor charged to the specified voltage then discharged through a 1.5 k resistor into each pin. The
Machine Model (MM) is a 200 pF capacitor charged to the specified voltage then discharged directly into each pin. The Charged Device Model (CDM) is a specified
circuit characterizing an ESD event that occurs when a device acquires charge through some triboelectric (frictional) or electrostatic induction processes and then
abruptly touches a grounded object or surface.
Note 3: Reflow temperature profiles are different for lead-free and non-lead-free packages.
Note 4: Typicals are at TJ = TA = 25°C and represent most likely parametric norm.
Note 5: Limits are guaranteed to National's AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 6: Line regulation (DC) is calculated by subtracting the output voltage at the highest supply voltage from the output voltage at the lowest supply voltage.
The typical DC line regulation specification does not include the output voltage shift discussed in Section 5.3.
Note 7: Supply Current refers to the quiescent current of the LM57 only and does not include any load current
Note 8: This current is leakage current only and is therefore highest at high temperatures. Prototype test indicate that the leakage is well below 1 μA over the full
temperature range. This 1 μA specification reflects the limitations of measuring leakage at room temperature. For this reason only, the leakage current is not
guaranteed at a lower value.
Note 9: Accuracy is defined as the error between the measured and reference output voltages, tabulated in the Conversion Table at the specified conditions of
supply gain setting, voltage, and temperature (expressed in °C). Accuracy limits include line regulation within the specified conditions. Accuracy limits do not
include load regulation; they assume no DC load.
Note 10: Source currents are flowing out of the LM57. Sink currents are flowing into the LM57. Load Regulation is calculated by measuring Vtemp at 0 μA and
subtracting the value with the conditions specified.
Note 11: Guaranteed by design and characterization.

1.1 Selection of RSET Resistors
To set the trip point:
(1) Locate the desired trip temperature on the Trip Point Ta-
ble.
(2) Identify the corresponding RSENSE2 value by following the
column up to the resistor value.
(3) Identify the corresponding RSENSE1 value by following the
row leftwards to the resistor value.
(4) Use only the EIA E96 standard resistor values from the
list.
(5) Use only the resistor with 1% tolerance and a temperature
coefficient of 100ppm (or better). These restrictions are nec-
essary to stay at the selected setting, and not to slip into an
adjacent setting.
(6) This is consistent with using resistors from the Thick Film
Chip Resistors CRCW0402 family. These are available with
very small dimensions of L = 1.0mm, W = 0.5mm, H =
0.35mm.
(7) Note that the resistor tolerance does not diminish the ac-
curacy of the trip point. See patent #6,924,758.

Note: The Rset resistors select a trip point and a corresponding Vtemp gain

in bold on this table. The Vtemp gain is selected by the Rset resistors. Vtemp
is valid over the entire temperature range.

3.0 TOVER AND TOVER DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The TOVER Active High, Push-Pull Output and the TOVER Ac-
tive Low, Open-Drain Output both assert at the same time
whenever the Die Temperature reaches the Trip Point. They
also assert simultaneously whenever the TRIP TEST pin is
set high. Both outputs de-assert when the die temperature
goes below the (Temperature Trip Point) - (Hysteresis).
These two types of digital outputs enable the user the flexi-
bility to choose the type of output that is most suitable for his
design.
Either the TOVER or the TOVER Digital Output pins can be left
open if not used.
The TOVER Active Low, Open-Drain Digital Output, if used, re-
quires a pull-up resistor between this pin and VDD.
3.1TOVER and TOVER Noise Immunity
The LM57 has some noise immunity to a premature trigger
due to noise on the power supply. With the die temperature
at 1°C below the trip point, there are no premature triggers for
a square wave injected into the power supply with a magni-
tude of 100 mVPP over a frequency range of 100 Hz to 2 MHz.
Above the frequency a premature trigger may occur.
With the die temperature at 2°C below the trip point, and a
magnitude of 200 mVPP, there are no premature triggers from
100 Hz to 300 kHz. Above that frequency a premature trigger
may occur.
Therefore if the supply line is noisy, it is recommended that a
local supply decoupling cap be used to reduce that noise.
4.0 TRIP TEST DIGITAL INPUT
The TRIP TEST pin provides a means to test the digital out-
puts by causing them to assert, regardless of temperature.
In addition, when the TRIP TEST pin is pulled high the
VTEMP pin will be at the VTRIP voltage.
5.0 VTEMP ANALOG TEMPERATURE SENSOR OUTPUT
The VTEMP push-pull output provides the ability to sink and
source significant current. This is beneficial when, for exam-
ple, driving dynamic loads like an input stage on an analog-
to-digital converter (ADC). In these applications the source
current is required to quickly charge the input capacitor of the
ADC. See the Applications Circuits section for more discus-
sion of this topic. The LM57 is ideal for this and other appli-
cations which require strong source or sink current.
5.1 VTEMP Noise Considerations
A load capacitor on VTEMP can help to filter noise.
For noisy environments, a 100nF supply decoupling cap
placed closed across VDD and GND pins of LM57 is recom-
mended.
5.2 VTEMP Capacitive Loads
The VTEMP Output handles capacitive loading well. In an ex-
tremely noisy environment, or when driving a switched sam-
pling input on an ADC, it may be necessary to add some
filtering to minimize noise coupling. Without any precautions,
the VTEMP can drive a capacitive load less than or equal to
1100 pF as shown in Figure 2. For capacitive loads greater
than 1100 pF, a series resistor is required on the output, as
shown in Figure 3, to maintain stable conditions.

FIGURE 3. LM57 with Series Resistor for Capacitive
Loading greater than 1100 pF.
5.3 VTEMP Voltage Shift
The LM57 is very linear over temperature and supply voltage
range. Due to the intrinsic behavior of an NMOS/PMOS rail-
to-rail buffer, a slight shift in the output can occur when the
supply voltage is ramped over the operating range of the de-
vice. The location of the shift is determined by the relative
levels of VDD and VTEMP. The shift typically occurs when
VDD − VTEMP = 1.0V.
This slight shift (a few millivolts) takes place over a wide
change (approximately 200 mV) in VDD or VTEMP. Since the
shift takes place over a wide temperature change of 5°C to
20°C, VTEMP is always monotonic. The accuracy specifica-
tions in the Electrical Characteristics table already includes
this possible shift.
6.0 MOUNTING AND TEMPERATURE CONDUCTIVITY
The LM57 can be applied easily in the same way as other
integrated-circuit temperature sensors. It can be glued or ce-
mented to a surface.
To ensure good temperature conductivity, the backside of the
LM57 die is directly attached to the exposed pad. The tem-
peratures of the lands and traces to the other leads of the
LM57 will also affect the temperature reading.
Alternatively, the LM57 can be mounted inside a sealed-end
metal tube, and can then be dipped into a bath or screwed
into a threaded hole in a tank. As with any IC, the LM57 and
accompanying wiring and circuits must be kept insulated and
dry, to avoid leakage and corrosion. This is especially true if
the circuit may operate at cold temperatures where conden-
sation can occur. If moisture creates a short circuit from the
13 www.national.com
LM57
VTEMP output to ground or VDD, the VTEMP output from the
LM57 will not be correct. Printed-circuit coatings are often
used to ensure that moisture cannot corrode the leads or cir-
cuit traces.
The LM57's junction temperature is the actual temperature
being measured. The thermal resistance junction-to-ambient
(θJA) is the parameter (from Figure 4) used to calculate the
rise of a device junction temperature due to its power dissi-
pation. The equation used to calculate the rise in the LM57's
die temperature is
where TA is the ambient temperature, IQ is the quiescent cur-
rent, IL is the load current on Vtemp.
For example, in an application where TA = 30 °C, VDD = 5.5
V, IDD = 28 μA, J5 gain, VTEMP = 2368 mV, and IL = 0 μA, the
total temperature rise would be [152°C/W*5.5V*28μA] =
0.023°C. To minimize self-heating, the load current on Vtemp
should be minimized.

7.0 Rset TABLE
The LM57 uses the voltage at the two Rsense pins to set the
trip point for the temperature switch. It is possible to drive the
two Rsense pins with a voltage equal to the value generated
by the resistor and the internal current-source and have the
same switch point. Thus one can use an external DAC to drive
each Rsense pin, allowing for the temperature trip point to be
set dynamically by the system processor. The table shows the
Rset value and its corresponding generated Rsense pin volt-
age (the “Center Value").

Most CMOS ADCs found in microcontrollers and ASICs have a sampled data comparator input structure. When the ADC charges
the sampling cap, it requires instantaneous charge from the output of the analog source such as the LM57 temperature sensor
and many op amps. This requirement is easily accommodated by the addition of a capacitor (CFILTER). The size of CFILTER depends
on the size of the sampling capacitor and the sampling frequency. Since not all ADCs have identical input stages, the charge
requirements will vary. This general ADC application is shown as an example only.

When Tover goes active high, it drives Trip Test high. Trip Test high causes Tover to stay high. It is therefore latched. To release
the latch: Power down then power up. The LM57 always comes up in a released condition.
FIGURE 9. Simple Latch Circuit
30080565
The TRIP TEST pin, normally used to check the operation of the TOVER and TOVER pins, may be used to latch the outputs whenever
the temperature exceeds the programmed limit and causes the digital outputs to assert. As shown in the figure, when TOVER goes
high the TRIP TEST input is also pulled high and causes TOVER output to latch high and the TOVER output to latch low. Momentarily
switching the TRIP TEST input low will reset the LM57 to normal operation. The resistor limits the current out of the TOVER output
pin.
