The ADT7420 is a high accuracy digital temperature sensoroffering breakthrough performance over a wide industrialrange, housed in a 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP package. It contains aninternal band gap reference, a temperature sensor, and a 16-bitADC to monitor and digitize the temperature to 0.0078°Cresolution. The ADC resolution, by default, is set to 13 bits(0.0625°C). The ADC resolution is a user programmable modethat can be changed through the serial interface.

The ADT7420 is guaranteed to operate over supply voltages from2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operating at 3.3 V, the average supply current is typically210 μA. The ADT7420 has a shutdown mode that powersdown the device and offers a shutdown current of typically 2.0 μAat 3.3 V. The ADT7420 is rated for operation over the −40°C to+150°C temperature range.

Pin A0 and Pin A1 are available for address selection, giving theADT7420 four possible I²C addresses. The CT pin is an open-drainoutput that becomes active when the temperature exceedsa programmable critical temperature limit. The INT pin is alsoan open-drain output that becomes active when the temperatureexceeds a programmable limit. The INT pin and CT pincan operate in comparator and interrupt event modes.
