Note 10: Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output due to heating effects can be
computed by multiplying the internal dissipation by the thermal resistance.
Note 11: For best long-term stability, any precision circuit will give best results if the unit is aged at a warm temperature, and/or temperature cycled for at least 46

1.0 Mounting
The LM60 can be applied easily in the same way as other
integrated-circuit temperature sensors. It can be glued or
cemented to a surface. The temperature that the LM60 is
sensing will be within about
ture that LM60’s leads are attached to.
This presumes that the ambient air temperature is almost
the same as the surface temperature; if the air temperature
were much higher or lower than the surface temperature,
the actual temperature of the LM60 die would be at an intermediate temperature between the surface temperature and
the air temperature.
To ensure good thermal conductivity the backside of the
LM60 die is directly attached to the GND pin. The lands and
traces to the LM60 will, of course, be part of the printed
circuit board, which is the object whose temperature is being measured. These printed circuit board lands and traces
will not cause the LM60’s temperature to deviate from the
desired temperature.
Alternatively, the LM60 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 LM60 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
condensation can occur. Printed-circuit coatings and varnishes such as Humiseal and epoxy paints or dips are often
used to ensure that moisture cannot corrode the LM60 or its
connections.

2.0 Capacitive Loads
The LM60 handles capacitive loading well. Without any special precautions, the LM60 can drive any capacitive load as
shown in
Figure 4.
LM60 has a maximum output impedance of 800X.Inan
extremely noisy environment it may be necessary to add
some filtering to minimize noise pickup. It is recommended
that 0.1 mF be added from
power supply voltage, as shown in
ronment it may be necessary to add a capacitor from the
output to ground. A 1 mF output capacitor with the 800X
output impedance will form a 199 Hz lowpass filter. Since
the thermal time constant of the LM60 is much slower than
the 6.3 ms time constant formed by the RC, the overall response time of the LM60 will not be significantly affected.
For much larger capacitors this additional time lag will increase the overall response time of the LM60.
