Arduino Due and TMP175 sensor

Another sensor or module to cross our path, this time we will look at the TMP175 digital temperature sensors

The TMP175 devices is a digital temperature sensors ideal for NTC and PTC thermistor replacement. The device offers a typical accuracy of ±1°C without requiring calibration or external component signal conditioning. IC temperature sensors are highly linear and do not require complex calculations or look-up tables to derive the temperature. The on-chip 12-bit ADC offers resolutions down to 0.0625°C.

The TMP175  feature SMBus, Two-Wire, and I²C interface compatibility. The TMP175 device allows up to 27 devices on one bus. . The TMP175  feature an SMBus Alert function.

The TMP175 are ideal for extended temperature measurement in a variety of communication, computer, consumer, environmental, industrial, and instrumentation applications.
