Maxim Integrated MAX6647MUA+ Precision Temperature Sensor
The Maxim Integrated MAX6647MUA+ is a high-accuracy, low-power temperature sensor designed for precise temperature monitoring and control in a wide range of applications. It is particularly suitable for use in computer systems, environmental control systems, and industrial equipment where reliable temperature readings are critical for optimal performance and safety.
Key Features
- Temperature Accuracy: The MAX6647 provides an impressive accuracy of ±1°C from -40°C to +125°C, ensuring precise temperature measurements for critical applications.
- Dual Channel: It features two channels for temperature sensing; one local sensor to monitor its own temperature and one remote sensor to monitor the temperature of an external diode-connected transistor, which can be placed on a CPU, GPU, or other heat-generating components.
- Programmable Overtemperature Alarms: Overtemperature alarms are programmable, allowing the user to set threshold limits. When the temperature exceeds these limits, the alarm is triggered to prevent overheating.
- Communication Interface: The device communicates over a 2-wire SMBus/I²C-compatible serial interface, making it easy to integrate into most systems.
- Low Power Consumption: Designed for efficiency, the MAX6647 operates with low power consumption, which is ideal for battery-powered and energy-sensitive systems.
- Small Form Factor: Housed in an 8-pin µMAX package, the MAX6647MUA+ is compact and suitable for space-constrained applications.
