LMT86 exists deviation when acture temperature is about 150 Celsius.

Part Number: LMT86

LMT86 exists deviation when acture temperature is about 150 Celsius in a test & measurement application, how to optimaze the design and improve temperature sensitivity?

  • Hi Mike,

    What kind of deviation are you seeing?

    If you are looking for better than datasheet accuracy, you could perform a single point offset calibration at a higher temperature value. This would also eliminate the effects of temperature on your ADC at this value. 

    Keep in mind that 150°C is right at the edge of the LMT86's operating range, so exceeding that will likely produce behavior that is out of device specification. Even with a calibration we can't guarantee any level of performance above 150°C.
