Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMP61
Hi Expert,
Our customer uses TMP61with current bias. They find some confusion in datasheet. As you can see below, the Vsns is recommended to work at 5.5V max. From my understanding, Vsns means the voltage between Thermistor (–) and (+) terminals. But also in datasheet, we see the test curve, when Ibias is 400uA and at 140C, res is about 20k, so the total voltage on TMP61 will be about 8V, which exceeds 5.5V as recommended. So I want to know if I understand correctly since it's very weird. Please help clarify. Thanks.
BR,
