TMP421: how to measure -64C ~ +191C?

Part Number: TMP421

Hi sirs,

   My customer would like to know how measure -64C ~ +191C on TMP421. On data sheet, page 11

    "This configuration allows measurement of temperatures as low as –64°C, and as high as +191°C". 

  if I change bit 2 ( Range) in Configuration Register 1 to high from low, the temp. range is -55 ~+150C only. so what should I change to get -64C measurement?

  • Dear Alan - 

    Thanks for posting, as indicated on page 11 of that datasheet - The device can be set to measure over an extended temperature range by changing bit 2 (RANGE) of Configuration Register 1 from low to high, and referring to Table 1, Extended Binary section.
