General Description

The MAX6676/MAX6677 are high-accuracy, low-power
temperature sensors with a single-wire output. The
MAX6676/MAX6677 convert the ambient temperature
into a ratiometric PWM output with temperature informa-
tion contained in the duty cycle of the output square
wave. The MAX6676 has an open-drain output and the
MAX6677 has a push-pull output.

The MAX6676/MAX6677 are specified for operation
with power-supply voltages from 1.8V to 3.6V, or from
3.6V to 5.5V. The typical unloaded supply current is
80µA. All devices feature a single-wire output that mini-
mizes the number of pins necessary to interface with a
microprocessor (µP). The output is a square wave with
a nominal frequency of 1.8kHz (±20%) at +25°C. The
output format is decoded as follows:

Temperature (°C) = 398.15

(t

1

/ t

2

) - 273.15

Where t

1

is fixed with a typical value of 0.24ms and t

2

is

modulated by the temperature. The MAX6676/
MAX6677 operate from -40°C to +125°C and are avail-
able in space-saving 6-pin SOT23 packages.
