MAX6682MUA+ Datasheet PDF - Maxim Integrated

●The MAX6682MUA+ is a thermistor to digital converter in 8 pin µMAX package. It converts an external thermistor temperature dependent resistance directly into digital form. The thermistor and an external fixed resistor form voltage divider that is driven by internal voltage reference of MAX6682. The device measures voltage across the external resistor and produces 10bit resolution and sign output code dependent on that voltage. The MAX6682 does not linearize highly nonlinear transfer function of typical negative temperature coefficient thermistor but it does provide linear output data over limited temperature ranges when used with an external resistor of correct value. It produces output data that is scaled to 8LSBs/°C (for 0.125°C resolution) over 0° to 50°C temperature range provided that correct thermistor and external resistor values are used. Other temperature ranges can be easily accommodated but do not necessarily yield data scaled to an even number of LSBs per degree.
