Description:
The TMP36 Temperature Sensor IC – Pack of 5 provides a simple, accurate, and low-power solution for analog temperature measurement. Manufactured by Analog Devices, the TMP36 is a precision sensor with a voltage output that is linearly proportional to temperature in Celsius, making it straightforward to interface with ADC-enabled microcontrollers. It operates without the need for external calibration and is capable of measuring temperatures from -40°C to +125°C with a typical accuracy of ±1°C at 25°C.
Housed in a compact TO-92 package, the TMP36 is ideal for breadboard prototyping and through-hole PCB applications. Requiring only a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply, the sensor consumes less than 50 µA of current during operation, which makes it ideal for battery-powered and portable systems. With its simple 3-pin configuration and no requirement for external components, this 5-pack is perfect for temperature logging, environmental monitoring, and educational projects.
