Temperature Sensor - TMP36

Temperature Sensor - TMP36

156 units will be available shortly.

Express post shipping available (product is on backorder)

This is the same temperature sensor that is included in our SparkFun Inventor’s Kit. The TMP36 is a low voltage, precision centigrade temperature sensor. It provides a voltage output that is linearly proportional to the Celsius temperature. It also doesn’t require any external calibration to provide typical accuracies of ±1°C at +25°C and ±2°C over the −40°C to +125°C temperature range. We like it because it’s so easy to use: Just give the device a ground and 2.7 to 5.5 VDC and read the voltage on the Vout pin. The output voltage can be converted to temperature easily using the scale factor of 10 mV/°C.

Features:

  • Voltage Input: 2.7 V to 5.5 VDC
  • 10 mV/°C scale factor
  • ±2°C accuracy over temperature
  • ±0.5°C linearity
  • Operating Range: −40°C to +125°C

Temperature Sensor - TMP36

I am currently playing around with Arduino and noticed the TMP36 sensor is used to make an analog thermometer.
Jaycar used to have a shop in my town but they recently closed down which makes it inconvenient to purchase small quantities of electronic components.
I googled TMP36 and up came Little Bird, the price seemed great so I ordered a few and they arrived very promptly. I would not hesitate to use them again.
