LM35: LM35CZ vs LM35DZ

Part Number: LM35

Hi,

What is the difference between LM35CZ and LM35DZ?

Thanks,

Alberto

  • Hi Alberto,

    Thank you for posting to the Sensing forum.

    The LM35C and LM35D have different recommended operating temperatures, specified in Section 6.3 of the datasheet. LM35C can operate between -40 to 110 °C while LM35D can operate between 0 and 100 °C.

    Additionally, LM35C and LM35D have different accuracy specifications. This is detailed in Section 6.7 of the datasheet and highlighted in Figure 9.

    Best regards,

  • Thank you Nicole.

    I have a followup question regarding packaging: for the TO-92nthere are two possible lead configurations.

    What is the "selector" in the part number between the two lead form types?

    Thank you!

    Best regards,

    Alberto

  • Hi Alberto,

    LM35CZ and LM35DZ are both TO-92 packages, designated by the Z in the orderable name. Both devices have the same lead configuration. The different package designators are detailed on page 3 of the datasheet and correspond to the package type listed on the Ordering & Quality section of the product page. Packaging information is also on Addendum-Page 1 of the device datasheet.

    The TO-CAN package is designated with an H and the SOIC package is designated with an M. Devices in the TO-220 package have a T in the orderable name.

    Best regards,

  • Hi Nicole,

    thanks for the response. My question regarding the TO-92 package it that is seems to come in two different lead forms (see below):

    is there a way to distinguish between those two?

    Thanks again!

    Best regards,

    Alberto

  • Hi Alberto,

    Sorry for the misunderstanding. The straight lead package is only available in the bulk pack option. This is denoted with /NOPB at the end of the product name. All other /LFT packaging options will have formed leads.

    For more details regarding TO-92 packaging please refer to the following TO-92 Packing Options / Ordering Instructions.

    Best regards,

    Nicole

  • Thank you Nicole!
