Frequently Asked Questions - TC1028 Microchip
What is the Microchip TC1028?
The TC1028 is a dual trip point temperature sensor with two comparator outputs. It monitors temperature and produces logic-level signals when the temperature crosses user-programmed thresholds.
How do I set the trip points on the TC1028?
The trip points are programmed by connecting external resistors to the SPSET pin. The resistor values determine the temperature thresholds. Refer to the datasheet or manual for the exact resistor calculation formula.
What is the operating voltage range of the TC1028?
The TC1028 operates with a supply voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V, making it compatible with both 3.3V and 5V systems.
What is the temperature measurement range?
The TC1028 can measure temperatures from -40°C to +125°C, suitable for most electronics thermal monitoring applications.
Can the TC1028 be directly connected to a microcontroller?
Yes, the TC1028 has push-pull outputs that can drive digital inputs of a microcontroller directly without external pull-up resistors.
How accurate is the TC1028?
The typical accuracy is ±1°C over the full operating range, which is suitable for thermal management and alarm applications.
Does the TC1028 require calibration?
No, the TC1028 is factory-calibrated and does not require user calibration. The trip points are set by external resistors, but the sensor itself is pre-calibrated.
What is the difference between TC1028 and TC1029?
The TC1028 has push-pull outputs, while the TC1029 has open-drain outputs. This affects the need for external pull-up resistors when interfacing with other logic.
What are typical applications for the TC1028?
Typical applications include fan speed control, over-temperature alarms, system thermal monitoring, and battery temperature protection.
Can the TC1028 be used in automotive environments?
Yes, the TC1028 is designed for industrial and automotive temperature ranges and can operate in harsh environments when properly protected.
