Evaluation Kit for the MAX31730 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor
Manufactured By:Maxim Integrated
Part Number:MAX31730UEVKIT
The MAX31730 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides the hardware and software graphical user interface (GUI) necessary to evaluate the MAX31730 3-channel remote temperature sensor in a µMAX® or TDFN package. The EV kit includes a MAX31730 installed, as well as three external diode-connected transistors and a USB-to-SMBus/I2C interface.
The MAX31730 temperature sensor monitors its own temperature and the temperatures of three external diode-connected transistors. The operating supply voltage is from 3.0V to 3.6V. Resistance cancellation compensates for high series resistance in circuit-board traces and the external thermal diode, while beta compensation corrects for temperature-measurement errors due to low-beta sensing transistors.
Applications:
- Communications Equipment
- CPU, FPGA, and ASIC Die Temperature Monitoring
