LM60-Q1: Accuracy beyond 125C

Kent Boatright

Part Number: LM60-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM60, LM50

The LM60 lists an operating temp range of -40/+125 with a max storage temp of +150C. I assume that the part still functions from 125 to 150C but with reduced accuracy?

Can you tell me if there is any data that estimates what the accuracy would be from 125 to 150C? Would this also apply towards the LM50? This particular application is being fed by a 5V supply.

Thank You

Hi Kent,

I will look into this and get back to you.

Thanks,

Hello Kent,

After taking a closer look at the datasheet, I found in the Abs. Max section that the maximum junction temperature is 125 C. Thus, we will not have data on the device operating above this temperature and it is not recommended to operate the device above 125 C. The storage temperature refers to the max temp. the device can be present in when the device is not operating.

Regards,

Audrey
