This board can connect directly to the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit, providing a platform for code development and evaluation. The system designer will be able to use this design as an example of how to integrate a digital temperature sensor in their system.</p> <p>The TC77 is a serially accessible digital temperature sensor particularly suited for low cost and small formfactor applications. Temperature data is converted from the internal thermal sensing element and made available at anytime as a 13-bit two&rsquo;s compliment digital word. Communication with the TC77 is accomplished via a SPI and MICROWIRE compatible interface. It has a 12-bit plus sign temperature resolution of 0.0625&deg;C per Least Significant Bit (LSb).</p> <p>The TC77 offers a temperature accuracy of &plusmn;1.0&deg;C (max.) over the temperature range of 25&deg;C to 65&deg;C. When operating, the TC77 consumes only 250 &mu;A (typ.). The TC77&rsquo;s Configuration register can be used to activate the low power Shutdown mode, which has a current consumption of only 0.1 &mu;A (typ.). Small size, low cost and ease of use make the TC77 an ideal choice for implementing thermal management in a variety of systems.</p> <p><strong>Applications:</strong> Thermal Protection for Hard Disk Drives and Other PC Peripherals, PC Card Devices for Notebook Computers, Low Cost Thermostat Controls, Industrial Control, Office Equipment, Cellular Phones, Thermistor Replacement.</p> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Features</h3> <ul> <li>Available F/W routine transmits TC77 temperature data via SPI serial bus to a PIC microcontroller, as well as performs conversions to &deg;F and &deg;C.</li> <li>Standard 100-mill header for easy interface to PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit or custom application</li> <li>Small PCB layout</li> </ul> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Ships With</h3> <ul> <li>Demo Board</li> <li>User&rsquo;s Guide, Application Note, Datasheet</li> </ul> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Required Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-content"></div> </div> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Accessory Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-content"></div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Documents</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Data Sheet</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/20092B.pdf" target="_blank">TC77 Thermal Sensor (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Selection Guide</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/50001894D.pdf" target="_blank">Quick Guide to Microchip Development Tools (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">User Manual/Guide</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/51484b.pdf" target="_blank">TC77 Thermal Sensor PICtail Demo Board (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Downloads</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Applications Library</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-archive"></i> <a href="http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/00004R1%20Firmware.zip" target="_blank">TC77 Thermal Sensor PICtail Demo Board Firmware (zip)</a> </div> </div> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Schematics/Layout Files</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-archive"></i> <a href="http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/00004R1%20Gerbers.zip" target="_blank">TC77 Thermal Sensor PICtail Demo Board Gerbers (zip)</a> </div> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: sensing, microchip, TC77, temperature, pictail, thermal sensor, analog_demo_boards</div>
