7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LM20 device is a precision analog output CMOS integrated-circuit temperature sensor that operates over a
temperature range of 55°C to 130°C. The power supply operating range is 2.4 V to 5.5 V. The transfer function
of LM20 is predominately linear, yet has a slight predictable parabolic curvature. The accuracy of the LM20 when
specified to a parabolic transfer function is typically ±1.5°C at an ambient temperature of 30°C. The temperature
error increases linearly and reaches a maximum of ±2.5°C at the temperature range extremes for the LM20. The
temperature range is affected by the power supply voltage. At a power supply voltage of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, the
temperature range extremes are 130°C and 55°C. Decreasing the power supply voltage to 2.4 V changes the
negative extreme to 30°C, while the positive remains at 130°C.
The LM20 quiescent current is less than 10 μA. Therefore, self-heating is less than 0.02°C in still air. Shutdown
capability for the LM20 is intrinsic because its inherent low power consumption allows it to be powered directly
from the output of many logic gates or, does not necessitate shutdown at all.
The temperature sensing element is comprised of a simple base emitter junction that is forward biased by a
current source. The temperature sensing element is then buffered by an amplifier and provided to the OUT pin.
The amplifier has a simple class A output stage thus providing a low impedance output that can source 16 µA
and sink 1 µA.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 LM20 Transfer Function
The LM20 transfer function can be described in different ways with varying levels of precision. A simple linear
transfer function with good accuracy near 25°C is:
VO=11.69 mV/°C × T + 1.8663 V (1)
Over the full operating temperature range of 55°C to 130°C, best accuracy can be obtained by using the
parabolic transfer function.
VO= (3.88×106×T2)+(1.15×102×T) + 1.8639 (2)
Using Equation 2, the following temperature to voltage output characteristic table can be generated.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The LM20 features make it suitable for many general temperature sensing applications. Multiple package options
expand on its, flexibility.
8.1.1 Capacitive Loads
The LM20 handles capacitive loading well. Without any precautions, the LM20 can drive any capacitive load less
than 300 pF as shown in Figure 2. Over the specified temperature range the LM20 has a maximum output
impedance of 160 Ω. In an extremely noisy environment, it may be necessary to add some filtering to minimize
noise pickup. It is recommended that 0.1 μF be added from V+to GND to bypass the power supply voltage, as
shown in Figure 4. In a noisy environment, it may even be necessary to add a capacitor from the output to
ground with a series resistor as shown in Figure 4. A 1-μF output capacitor with the 160-Ωmaximum output
impedance and a 200-Ωseries resistor will form a 442-Hz lowpass filter. Because the thermal time constant of
the LM20 is much slower, the overall response time of the LM20 will not be significantly affected.
In situations where a transient load current is placed on the circuit output the series resistance value may be
increased to compensate for any ringing that may be observed.

NOTE
Either placement of resistor, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, is just as effective.
8.1.2 LM20 DSBGA Light Sensitivity
Exposing the LM20 DSBGA package to bright sunlight may cause the output reading of the LM20 to drop by
1.5 V. In a normal office environment of fluorescent lighting the output voltage is minimally affected (less than a
millivolt drop). In either case, TI recommends that the LM20 DSBGA be placed inside an enclosure of some type
that minimizes its light exposure. Most chassis provide more than ample protection. The LM20 does not sustain
permanent damage from light exposure. Removing the light source will cause the output voltage of the LM20 to
recover to the proper value.
8.2 Typical Applications
8.2.1 Full-Range Celsius (Centigrade) Temperature Sensor (55°C to 130°C) Operating from a Single Li-
Ion Battery Cell
The LM20 has a very low supply current and a wide supply range; therefore, it can easily be driven by a battery
as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Full-Range Celsius (Centigrade) Temperature Sensor (55°C To 130°C) Operating from a Single
Li-Ion Battery Cell
8.2.1.1 Design Requirements
Because the LM20 is a simple temperature sensor that provides an analog output, design requirements related
to layout are more important than electrical requirements. Refer to the Layout section for a detailed description.
8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The LM20 transfer function can be described in different ways with varying levels of precision. A simple linear
transfer function with good accuracy near 25°C is:
VO=11.69 mV/°C × T + 1.8663 V (4)
Over the full operating temperature range of 55°C to 130°C, best accuracy can be obtained by using the
parabolic transfer function.
VO= (3.88×106×T2)+(1.15×102×T) + 1.8639 (5)
Solving Equation 5 for T:

Typical Applications (continued)
(6)
An alternative to the quadratic equation a second order transfer function can be determined using the least-
squares method:
T = (2.3654×VO2)+(78.154×VO) + 153.857
where
T is temperature express in °C and VOis the output voltage expressed in volts. (7)
A linear transfer function can be used over a limited temperature range by calculating a slope and offset that give
best results over that range. A linear transfer function can be calculated from the parabolic transfer function of
the LM20. The slope of the linear transfer function can be calculated using the Equation 8 equation:
m = 7.76 × 106× T 0.0115,
where
T is the middle of the temperature range of interest and m is in V/°C. (8)
For example for the temperature range of TMIN =30 to TMAX = 100°C:
T = 35°C (9)
and m = 11.77 mV/°C (10)
The offset of the linear transfer function can be calculated using the Equation 11 equation:
b = (VOP(TMAX)+VOP(T) m × (TMAX+T))/2
where
VOP(TMAX) is the calculated output voltage at TMAX using the parabolic transfer function for VO
VOP(T) is the calculated output voltage at T using the parabolic transfer function for VO. (11)
The best fit linear transfer function for many popular temperature ranges was calculated in Table 3. As shown in
Table 3, the error introduced by the linear transfer function increases with wider temperature ranges.

8.3 System Examples
8.3.1 Conserving Power Dissipation With Shutdown
The LM20 draws very little power; therefore, it can simply be shutdown by driving its supply pin with the output of
an logic gate as shown in Figure 9.
Figure 9. Conserving Power Dissipation With Shutdown
8.3.2 Analog-to-Digital Converter Input Stage
Most CMOS ADCs found in ASICs have a sampled data comparator input structure that is notorious for causing
grief to analog output devices such as the LM20 and many operational amplifiers. The cause of this grief is the
requirement of instantaneous charge of the input sampling capacitor in the ADC. This requirement is easily
accommodated by the addition of a capacitor. Because not all ADCsFigure 10 have identical input stages, the
charge requirements will vary necessitating a different value of compensating capacitor. This ADC is shown as
an example only. If a digital output temperature is required, refer to devices such as the LM74.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The LM20 has a very wide 2.4-V to 5.5-V power supply voltage range that makes ideal for many applications. In
noisy environments, TI recommends adding at minimum 0.1 μF from V+ to GND to bypass the power supply
voltage. Larger capacitances maybe required and are dependent on the power-supply noise.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The LM20 can be easily applied in the same way as other integrated-circuit temperature sensors. It can be glued
or cemented to a surface. The temperature that the LM20 is sensing is within approximately 0.02°C of the
surface temperature to which the leads of the LM20 are attached.
Implementing the integrated-circuit temperature sensors presumes that the ambient air temperature is almost the
same as the surface temperature; if the air temperature were much higher or lower than the surface temperature,
the actual temperature measured would be at an intermediate temperature between the surface temperature and
the air temperature.
To ensure good thermal conductivity, the backside of the LM20 die is directly attached to the pin 2 GND. The
temperatures of the lands and traces to the other leads of the LM20 will also affect the temperature that is
sensed.
Alternatively, the LM20 can be mounted inside a sealed-end metal tube, and can then be dipped into a bath or
screwed into a threaded hole in a tank. As with any IC, the LM20 and accompanying wiring and circuits must be
kept insulated and dry, to avoid leakage and corrosion. This is especially true if the circuit may operate at cold
temperatures where condensation can occur. Printed-circuit coatings and varnishes such as a conformal coating
and epoxy paints or dips are often used to ensure that moisture cannot corrode the LM20 or its connections.
10.2 Layout Examples
Figure 11. Layout Used for No Heat Sink Measurements
Figure 12. Layout Used for Measurements With Small Heat Sink
10.3 Thermal Considerations
The thermal resistance junction to ambient (RθJA) is the parameter used to calculate the rise of a device junction
temperature due to its power dissipation. For the LM20, the equation used to calculate the rise in the die
temperature is as follows:
TJ= TA+ RθJA [(V+IQ) + (V+VO) IL]
where
IQis the quiescent current and ILis the load current on the output. Because the junction temperature of LM20 is
the actual temperature being measured, take care to minimize the load current that the LM20 is required to
drive. (14)

Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such
products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards
and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must
ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in
life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.
Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life
support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all
medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).
Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications
and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory
requirements in connection with such selection.
Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-
compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
