LM73 - 11-to-14 Bit Digital Temperature Sensor

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM75B, LM73

Hi,

I had looked at using the LM75B however discovered that the temperature will not update when reading the last temperature. (see note 8 of datasheet)

I have now shortlisted the LM73 instead as there is no information that implies the same as in the LM75B.

Note 9 of LM73 datasheet states:

"This specification is provided only to indicate how often temperature data is updated. The LM73 can be read at any time without regard to conversion state (and will yield last conversion result)."

Am I correct in assuming then that the LM73 permits temperature to be read without interrupting the current conversion?

Many thanks

Ryan
