DESCRIPTION

The DS1720 Digital Thermometer and Thermostat pro-
vides 9–bit temperature readings which indicate the
temperature of the device. With three thermal alarm out-
puts, the DS1720 can also act as a thermostat. T

HIGH

is

driven high if the DS1720’s temperature is greater than
or equal to a user–defined temperature TH. T

LOW

is

driven high if the DS1720’s temperature is less than or
equal to a user–defined temperature TL. T

COM

is driven

high when the temperature exceeds TH and stays high
until the temperature falls below that of TL.

User–defined temperature settings are stored in non–
volatile memory, so parts can be programmed prior to
insertion in a system, as well as used in stand–alone
applications without a CPU. Temperature settings and
temperature readings are all communicated to/from the
DS1720 over a simple 3–wire interface.
