Overview
The AD22100KT, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a monolithic temperature sensor with on-chip signal conditioning. This device is designed to operate over a wide temperature range of −50°C to +150°C, making it suitable for various applications in HVAC, instrumentation, and automotive sectors. The AD22100KT features a ratiometric output, meaning its output voltage is proportional to the supply voltage, which simplifies interfacing with analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and eliminates the need for a precision reference voltage. The sensor includes a proprietary temperature-dependent resistor and an op-amp signal conditioning block, ensuring high accuracy and linearity without the need for external trimming, buffering, or linearization circuitry.
