This low-voltage (1.7V to 3.7V) digital thermometer
and thermostat provides 9, 10, 11, or 12-bit digital
temperature readings over a -55°C to +125°C range
with ±2°C accuracy over a -25°C to +100°C range. At
power-up, the DS75LX defaults to 9-bit resolution for
software compatibility with the LM75. Communication
with the DS75LX is achieved through a simple 2-wire
serial interface. Three tri-state address pins allow up
to 27 DS75LX devices to operate on the same 2-wire
bus, which greatly simplifies distributed temperature-sensing
applications.
The DS75LX thermostat has a dedicated open-drain
output (O.S.) and programmable fault tolerance,
which allow the user to define the number of
consecutive error conditions that must occur before
O.S. is activated. There are two thermostatic
operating modes that control thermostat operation
based on user-defined trip-points (TOS and THYST).
