Product details
Overview
LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a factory-preset, ±3°C accurate digital-output thermostat with fixed 115°C overtemperature shutdown trip point, open-drain active-low OS output, and programmable 2°C/10°C hysteresis via HYST pin. It integrates temperature sensor, reference, DAC, and comparator in a 5-pin SOT-23 package and supports microprocessor thermal shutdown and fan control applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB datasheet, LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB pinout, LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB application, or LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB equivalent, key selection factors include confirmed 115°C trip accuracy, 2.7–5.5 V supply range, 16 µA typical supply current, VTEMP analog output with −10.82 mV/°C slope, and HYST-controlled hysteresis configuration.
Technical Context
The LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB implements a precision analog temperature sensing front-end feeding an internal comparator with factory-trimmed trip threshold at 115°C. Its VTEMP pin outputs a voltage defined by VO = (−3.479 × 10⁻⁶ × (T − 30)²) + (−1.082 × 10⁻² × (T − 30)) + 1.8015 V, enabling post-assembly calibration and system-level temperature verification.
Digital output behavior is determined by factory programming: LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB is configured as OS (overtemperature shutdown), active-low, open-drain, requiring ≥10 kΩ pullup. Hysteresis is selected externally-HYST = GND yields 10°C, HYST = V+ yields 2°C-with no external components needed for basic operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Trip Point | 115°C fixed overtemperature shutdown threshold; die temperature must exceed this to assert OS low. |
| Accuracy | ±3°C over −55°C to +110°C ambient; includes sensor, reference, DAC, and comparator offset errors. |
| Hysteresis | 2°C (HYST = V+) or 10°C (HYST = GND); prevents output chatter near trip point by shifting comparator reference. |
| VTEMP Slope | −10.82 mV/°C; enables external ADC-based temperature readback with known polynomial equation. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; supports single-supply operation across battery-powered and industrial rails. |
| Supply Current | 16 µA typical, 40 µA max; ultra-low quiescent draw suitable for always-on thermal monitoring. |
| Digital Output | Open-drain, active-low OS; requires external pullup; sinks ≥1.2 mA at 0.4 V for reliable controller interrupt signaling. |
Pinout & Package
LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm, with thermal pad connected to GND (pin 2) for enhanced thermal coupling to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - HYST | Digital input | Selects hysteresis: logic high (V+) sets 2°C; logic low (GND) sets 10°C; <10 µA leakage ensures minimal loading. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground | Connected directly to die backside; primary thermal path to PCB; must be solidly tied to system ground. |
| 3 - VTEMP | Analog output | Temperature-proportional voltage output; weak drive (1 µA source / 40 µA sink); requires high-impedance ADC or series resistor for capacitive loads. |
| 4 - V+ | Power supply | 2.7–5.5 V input; requires 0.1 µF bypass capacitor close to pin; rejects noise up to 400 kHz square wave (1 Vp-p). |
| 5 - OS | Digital output | Open-drain, active-low overtemperature shutdown signal; asserts low when die temp ≥115°C; needs ≥10 kΩ pullup to V+ or controller rail. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-preset trip point | 115°C fixed threshold eliminates external component tuning and ensures repeatable thermal shutdown behavior. |
| VTEMP analog output | Enables after-assembly PCB testing and real-time temperature readback without adding discrete sensors. |
| Programmable hysteresis | 2°C or 10°C selection via single digital input allows optimization for fast-transient or noisy thermal environments. |
| No external components required | Self-contained sensing and decision circuitry reduces BOM count and layout complexity for compact thermal protection. |
| UL recognition | Meets UL 1459 requirements for end-equipment safety certification in industrial and consumer applications. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar thermostat applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM26CIM5-XPA/NOPB | Fixed 105°C trip point; identical pinout, output type, and hysteresis options. | Suitable for lower-temperature shutdown thresholds in power converters or battery packs. | Select when system thermal margin requires earlier intervention than 115°C. |
| LM26CIM5-VPA/NOPB | Fixed 95°C trip point; same SOT-23 package, VTEMP functionality, and supply range. | Preferred for microcontroller thermal throttling or fan start-up control in mid-range temperature envelopes. | Choose for applications needing tighter thermal headroom before critical failure. |
Compared with LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB, LM26CIM5-XPA/NOPB and LM26CIM5-VPA/NOPB offer lower trip points (105°C and 95°C) while preserving identical electrical interface, hysteresis control, and VTEMP diagnostics-enabling drop-in replacement with only trip point revalidation required.

FAQ
What is the exact trip temperature of LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB and how is it verified?
The LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB has a factory-preset overtemperature shutdown trip point of 115°C, confirmed in the Device Comparison Table of the SNIS115S datasheet. Trip accuracy is ±3°C over −55°C to +110°C ambient, including contributions from internal reference, DAC, comparator offset, and temperature sensitivity errors. This specification is guaranteed per TI's AOQL testing and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Does LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB require external components to operate as a thermostat?
No, LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB requires no external components for basic thermostat operation. Its internal temperature sensor, reference, DAC, and comparator are fully integrated. Only a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor on V+ and a ≥10 kΩ pullup resistor on the OS pin are recommended for robust performance. The HYST pin can be tied directly to GND or V+ to select hysteresis-no additional resistors are needed unless noise immunity is required.
How does the VTEMP pin function in LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB and what design precautions apply?
The VTEMP pin on LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB provides an analog voltage proportional to die temperature, defined by VO = (−3.479 × 10⁻⁶ × (T − 30)²) + (−1.082 × 10⁻² × (T − 30)) + 1.8015 V, with −10.82 mV/°C slope. It supports after-assembly testing and system-level temperature readback. Due to weak drive capability (1 µA source / 40 µA sink), avoid direct connection to low-impedance nodes; use a series resistor (e.g., 8.2 kΩ for 1 nF load) to prevent oscillation under capacitive loading.
Can LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB be used for undertemperature detection?
No, LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB is factory-programmed exclusively for overtemperature shutdown (OS) with active-low open-drain output. It does not support undertemperature (US) functionality. The Device Comparison Table confirms LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB is configured as "Active-Low, Open-Drain, OS output" with 115°C trip point. For undertemperature applications, consider LM26CIM5-BPB (−45°C US) or other US-configured variants.
What is the power supply rejection capability of LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB?
LM26CIM5-YPA/NOPB exhibits excellent power supply noise rejection: false triggering was not observed when injecting 400 kHz square wave (1 Vp-p), 2 kHz square wave (200 mVp-p), or 100 Hz–1 MHz sine wave (200 mVp-p) onto the V+ pin. Testing was performed with the device held 1°C below its 115°C trip point and output inactive, confirming robust operation in electrically noisy environments such as motor drives or switching power supplies.
