Sensirion, a provider of environmental and flow sensor solutions, presents the STS35 temperature sensor – the most accurate sensor of the versatile STS3x series. It has been designed to fulfill the needs of demanding markets, such as the medical and automotive sectors. Typical applications include body temperature measurement and temperature control.
The STS35 temperature sensor is a high-end model in the STS3x series and has an outstanding temperature accuracy of ∆T = ± 0.1 °C. Like all the models in this series, it features increased intelligence and reliability. Its functionality includes enhanced signal processing, two distinctive and user-selectable I2C addresses and communication speeds of up to 1 MHz. The DFN package can be integrated into an extensive variety of applications due to its footprint of 2.5 x 2.5 x 0.9 mm3 and the wide supply voltage range of 2.4 V to 5.5 V. Furthermore, this temperature sensor includes a configurable alert function, allowing it to be used as a temperature watchdog. All sensors by the company are based on the unique CMOSens Technology that integrates the sensing element and read-out electronics onto a single chip, enabling high production volume at an exceptional price/performance ratio.
