Product details
Overview
LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a factory-preset, ±3°C accurate undertemperature shutdown thermostat in SOT-23-5 package with active-high push-pull digital output, 0°C trip point (TUS), and programmable 2°C/10°C hysteresis via HYST pin. It integrates temperature sensor, reference, DAC, and comparator for standalone thermal protection in battery-powered systems and industrial controls.
For engineers reviewing the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB datasheet, LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB pinout, LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB application, or LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include trip point accuracy (±3°C), VTEMP analog output slope (−10.82 mV/°C), supply current (16 µA typical), hysteresis configuration (HYST = V+ → 2°C), and push-pull output drive capability (0.8×V+ min high-level voltage).
Technical Context
The LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB implements an internal NTC temperature sensor with polynomial VTEMP output equation: VTEMP = (−3.479×10⁻⁶×(T−30)²) + (−1.082×10⁻²×(T−30)) + 1.8015 V. Its comparator compares this against a DAC-set reference to trigger US (undertemperature shutdown) at 0°C.
Pin 5 is factory-programmed as active-high push-pull US output - it drives HIGH when die temperature falls below 0°C and LOW when temperature rises above (0°C + THYST). Hysteresis is selected digitally: HYST = V+ yields 2°C, HYST = GND yields 10°C - preventing output oscillation near threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Trip Point | 0°C undertemperature shutdown (TUS), factory-preset, ±3°C accuracy over −55°C to +110°C |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull US output - no external pullup required; drives ≥0.8×V+ at 500 µA source |
| Hysteresis | Selectable 2°C (HYST = V+) or 10°C (HYST = GND); prevents chatter during slow temperature transitions |
| VTEMP Output | Analog voltage proportional to die temperature; −10.82 mV/°C slope; enables post-assembly calibration and system-level temperature monitoring |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; 16 µA typical quiescent current - suitable for always-on battery monitoring |
| Package | SOT-23-5 (DBV), 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body; GND pin (Pin 2) thermally connected to die backside for accurate lead-temperature coupling |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package with exposed thermal pad not electrically connected; Pin 2 (GND) provides primary thermal path from die to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - HYST | Digital input | Hysteresis select: logic HIGH (V+) → 2°C; logic LOW (GND) → 10°C; input leakage <10 µA |
| 2 - GND | Power ground | Die backside connected directly to lead frame; primary thermal conduction path to PCB |
| 3 - VTEMP | Analog output | Temperature-proportional voltage; weak drive (1 µA source / 40 µA sink); requires high-Z ADC or series resistor for capacitive loads |
| 4 - V+ | Power supply | 2.7–5.5 V input; bypass with 0.1 µF capacitor; excellent noise rejection (200 mVp-p up to 1 MHz) |

FAQ
What is the exact trip point and hysteresis behavior of the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB?
The LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB is factory-programmed for 0°C undertemperature shutdown (TUS). Its hysteresis is user-selectable: connecting HYST to V+ sets THYST = 2°C, so US goes HIGH at 0°C and returns LOW only when temperature rises above +2°C; connecting HYST to GND sets THYST = 10°C, so US returns LOW only above +10°C. This behavior is confirmed in TI's SNIS115S datasheet Section 7.5 and Figure 5.
Does the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB require external components to operate?
No, the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB operates autonomously with only a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor on V+. It contains an integrated temperature sensor, voltage reference, DAC, comparator, and push-pull output driver. No external resistors, thermistors, or op-amps are needed - verified in the "No External Components Required" feature (Section 1) and Typical Application schematics (Figures 10–13) of the LM26 datasheet.
How is the VTEMP pin used in system-level testing for the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB?
The VTEMP pin enables after-assembly PCB testing of the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB by allowing direct voltage injection to force US output state changes. For example, grounding VTEMP while monitoring US verifies comparator and output stage functionality without thermal cycling. This procedure is documented in Section 8.4.1 of the SNIS115S datasheet and supports production test efficiency and field-repair validation.
What is the supply current consumption of the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB across temperature and voltage?
The LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB draws 16 µA typical and 40 µA maximum supply current over the full operating range (−55°C to +125°C) and supply voltage (2.7 V to 5.5 V), per Electrical Characteristics Table 7.5 in SNIS115S. This ultra-low quiescent current enables multi-year battery life in always-on cold-monitoring applications such as remote environmental sensors.
Can the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB be used for overtemperature detection?
No - the LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB is factory-configured exclusively for undertemperature shutdown (US) at 0°C. It does not support overtemperature (OS) functionality. Other variants like LM26CIM5-TPA (85°C OS) or LM26CIM5-RPA (65°C OS) provide overtemperature detection, but LM26CIM5-HHD/NOPB's output logic, trip point, and internal DAC setting are permanently fixed for US operation as specified in the Device Comparison Table (Section 5) of SNIS115S.
