Description
Microchip Technology’s MCP9501/2/3/4 family of
devices are temperature switches with ±1°C (typical)
accurate factory set output thresholds. These devices
are ideal for high power supply systems where an
overtemperature protection circuit is needed. These
devices do not require external components, consume
25 µA (typical), and the factory set thresholds provide
simplicity.
In addition, this family of devices provide user
selectable 2°C and 10°C (typical) switch hysteresis,
and various output configurations. The MCP9501/2
outputs switch for rising temperatures while the
MCP9503/4 switch for falling temperature, with the
relative hysteresis at the set thresholds. This family of
devices is also available with Active-High Push-Pull
and Active-Low Open-Drain outputs, the MCP9502/4
and the MCP9501/3, respectively. The Push-Pull
output is ideal for a microcontroller interface while the
Open-Drain output ca n be used for le vel shif ting, wiredOR configuration, or as a heater on/off switch.
The MCP9501/2/3/4 operate from 2.7V to 5.5V su ppl y.
This family is available with space saving 5-lead
SOT-23 package.

†Notice: Stresses above those listed under “Maximum
ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is
a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at
those or any other conditions above those indicated in the
operational listings of this specification is not implied.
Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.

The GND pin is the system ground pin. Pin 2 must be
connected to system ground. Pin 1 can also be
connected to system ground which would provide
better thermal conduction to the die.
