DP83TC811R-Q1: temperature sensor accuracy

Part Number: DP83TC811R-Q1

Hi Expert,

Could you please help me understand the accuracy of internal temperature sensor for DP83TC811R-Q1? 

Thanks!

  • Hi Ethan,

    The temperature sensor values read in register 0x0483 correspond to the following chart: 

    The exact numeric accuracy of the sensors has not been characterized unfortunately, so I cannot provide this information. 

    Thanks,

  • Hi David,

    Below is customer's feedback, do you have any suggestions to them? 

    So in order to ensure we are in safe status (Datasheet define the MAX temp is 150℃), when we use it, we have to set this value no bigger than 101, because in step 110, above limit 165℃ has already exceeded 150℃.

    But with this config, we are just wasting 15℃ margin (MAX 150℃ - 135℃)….. Do you have some ideas how we could improve ? Or nothing really could help….

    Thanks!

  • Hi Ethan,

    I understand the concern of the customer, but unfortunately the temperature sensor values cannot be changed.

    Thanks,
