General Description

The TC623 is a 3V solid-state, programmable temper­ature sensor designed for use in thermal management
applications. It f eatures dual thermal interrupt outputs
(LOW LIMIT and HIGH LIMIT) each of which are set
with an external resistor. The HIGH LIMIT and LOW
LIMIT outputs are driven active (high) when measured
temperature equals the user programmed limits. The
CONTROL output is driven active (high) when t emper­ature equals the HIGH LIMIT set point and turned off
when temperaturefallsbelow the LOW LIMITset point.
TheCONTROLoutputcanbeusedtoprovidesimple
ON/OFF control to a cooling fan if so desired.

Low voltage operation, easy set point programming,
small size and low cost make the TC623 an ideal
choice for many thermal management applications.

3.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION

3.1 TC623 Operation

The TC623 has a positive temperature coefficient
(Silicon)temperature sensor and dual threshold detec­tor. Temperature set point programming is accom­plished with external resistors from the HIGH SET and
LOW SET inputs to V
LIMIT outputs remain inactive (low) as long as the
measured temperature is below set point values. As
temperature increases, the LOW LIMIT is driven high
when temperature equals t he LOW LIMIT set point
(±3°C). If temperature continues to climb, the HIGH
LIMIT output is driven high when temperature equals
the HIGH LIMIT set point (±3°C).

Figure 3-1 shows the relationship between the sense
resistance values and trip point t emperature.

The CONTROL output is driven high when the HIGH
LIMIT output goes high and is RESET low when t he
LOW LIMIT output goes low. This output provides the
logic f or simple ON/OFF fan control. Figure 3-2 shows
overall TC623 operation.

ut (Cool Option

To prevent output "chattering" when measuredtemper­ature is at (or near) the trip point values, the LOW SET
and HIGH SET inputseachhave a built-in hysteresis of

-2°Cmax.As a result, the HIGH LIMIT and LOW LIMIT
outputs remain active until the measured temperature
falls a maximum of 2°C below the programmed HIGH
SET and LOW SET thresholds as shown in Figure 3-3.
The programmedsettingthreshold of Figure 3-3 is user
programmed temperature trip points of either the LOW
SET or HIGH SET inputs. T he LOW LIMIT or HIGH
LIMIT output is driven active when temperatureequals
the set point value (to within 3°C). The output remains
active until the temperature falls an additional 2°C
below the set point due to hysteresis.

4.0 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

4.1 Mounting

If the TC623 is used to measure the temperature of
anotherdevice,itisimportantthatthetopsurfaceofthe
TC623 package be in intimate contact with the
measureddevice.Goodthermalconductivityand no air
space is critical to accurate temperature m easurement
in applicationsof this type.

4.2 Trip Point Programming

The resistance values required for the HIGH SET and
LOW SET inputs are calculated using t he formula
below:

TC623

R

= 0.5997 x T

TRIP

Where;
R

= Programming resistor value in Ohms

TRIP

T = Desired trip temperature in degrees Kelvin.

For example, to program a trip point of 50°C, the pro­gramming resistor is:

R

= 0.5997 x (50 + 273.15)
