TMP117: are all teh parts medical grade?

Part Number: TMP117

Hi Team, I see on the data sheet that it says medical grade, but are all the parts medical grade, just that the M device is specified around the human temp requirements?

  • Dear Ajayt, 

    Thanks for the post - reference to the medical standards in the datasheet are both are system level, not component level - the ASTM E1112 requirement is for +/-0.1ºC accuracy within a range of 35.8ºC to 41.0ºC, and the ISO standard requires +/-0.3ºC accuracy. The TMP117 supports these accuracy requirements easily and requires no calibration to do so. As stated, the standards are system level - no report associated or based on those can exist for this component by itself, the customer must get their complete thermometer system tested, and they should be able to do that with confidence, using the TMP117.
