Product details
Overview
LM57FSPWRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 0 Extended automotive temperature switch and analog sensor IC with resistor-programmable trip point (−50°C to +160°C), ±2.3°C trip accuracy, ±1.3°C VTEMP analog output accuracy, 5°C hysteresis, and dual digital outputs (push-pull TOVER, open-drain TOVER) for overtemperature protection in engine control units.
For engineers reviewing the LM57FSPWRQ1 datasheet, LM57FSPWRQ1 pinout, LM57FSPWRQ1 application, or LM57FSPWRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, TSSOP-8 package details, resistor-programmable thermal threshold configuration, and automotive-grade reliability data required for safety-critical thermal monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The LM57FSPWRQ1 integrates a precision analog temperature sensor with class AB VTEMP output, internal DAC-based reference generation, and dual-comparator architecture. Its trip point is set by two external 1% resistors connected to SENSE1/SENSE2, enabling 256 discrete thresholds without resistor tolerance error contribution.
It features four programmable VTEMP gain slopes (J2 to J5, −5.166 to −12.924 mV/°C), each mapped to specific temperature ranges, with full-range analog validity and built-in 5°C thermal hysteresis to prevent output oscillation during threshold transitions.

Pinout & Package
TSSOP-8 (PW) package, 3.00 mm × 6.40 mm body size, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Power ground reference | Primary return path for analog and digital circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| SENSE1 / SENSE2 | Resistor divider input | Set trip temperature via external 1% resistor pair; determines both TTRIP and VTEMP gain slope (J2–J5) |
| VDD | Positive supply input | Accepts 2.4–5.5 V; powers internal bandgap, DAC, comparator, and output drivers |
| TRIP TEST | Digital test enable input | Active-high pin for in-system functional verification: asserts outputs and places VTRIP on VTEMP for threshold calibration |
| TOVER | Digital overtemp output | Push-pull active-high signal; drives directly into MCU interrupt or status pin without pull-up |
| TOVER | Digital overtemp output | Open-drain active-low signal; enables wired-OR fault bus with other sensors or controllers |
| VTEMP | Analog temperature output | Class AB voltage proportional to die temperature; slope programmable (−5.166 to −12.924 mV/°C); valid across full −50°C to +160°C range |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Resistor-programmable trip point | 256 discrete thresholds from −50°C to +160°C using only two 1% external resistors - eliminates need for trimming or calibration |
| Latching function | TOVER output latches when tied to TRIP-TEST; cleared only by forcing TRIP-TEST low - enables persistent fault capture in unattended systems |
| In-system TRIP-TEST verification | Driving TRIP-TEST high forces outputs active and places VTRIP on VTEMP - allows real-time validation of comparator and output functionality post-assembly |
| Short-circuit protected outputs | Both TOVER and TOVER outputs include current limiting - prevents damage during wiring faults or ESD events in harsh automotive environments |
| Low self-heating | 24–29 µA quiescent current at 150–160°C - keeps measurement error below 0.02°C, critical for precision thermal monitoring |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar temperature switch and analog sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM57TSPWRQ1 | Same TSSOP-8 package and Grade 0 Extended rating, but factory-set 10°C hysteresis instead of 5°C | Suitable where wider thermal margin is needed before recovery, e.g., high-inertia systems with slow cooldown | Select LM57TSPWRQ1 only if 10°C hysteresis is explicitly required; otherwise LM57FSPWRQ1 provides tighter control |
| LM57FEPWRQ1 | Identical functionality and 5°C hysteresis, but rated for −50°C to +150°C (Standard Grade 0), not +160°C extended | Applicable in non-extended-temperature zones such as cabin electronics or infotainment ECUs | Choose LM57FEPWRQ1 for cost-sensitive designs where 160°C operation is unnecessary |
Compared with LM57TSPWRQ1 and LM57FEPWRQ1, the LM57FSPWRQ1 uniquely combines 5°C hysteresis, −50°C to +160°C operation, and AEC-Q100 Grade 0 Extended qualification - making it the only option for high-reliability engine bay thermal supervision requiring precise, chatter-free shutdown at extreme temperatures.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature specification for LM57FSPWRQ1?
The LM57FSPWRQ1 is qualified for continuous operation from −50°C to +160°C per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 Extended requirements, with validated 170°C excursions during high-temperature operational life testing. This exceeds standard Grade 0 (−40°C to +150°C) and supports placement in demanding engine bay locations where ambient temperatures exceed 125°C.
How is the trip temperature programmed on LM57FSPWRQ1?
The trip temperature of LM57FSPWRQ1 is programmed using two external 1% resistors connected between SENSE1 and SENSE2 pins. Their ratio selects one of 256 possible trip points across −50°C to +160°C. The LM57FSPWRQ1's internal logic decodes the resistance ratio and configures both the trip threshold and corresponding VTEMP gain slope (J2–J5) without resistor tolerance error contribution.
Does LM57FSPWRQ1 support in-system functional testing?
Yes, LM57FSPWRQ1 supports in-system functional testing via the TRIP-TEST pin. Driving TRIP-TEST high asserts both TOVER and TOVER outputs and places the trip-reference voltage (VTRIP) on the VTEMP pin. This allows a host MCU to verify comparator response and output driver functionality after board assembly without requiring external thermal stimulus.
What are the key differences between LM57FSPWRQ1 and LM57TSPWRQ1?
The LM57FSPWRQ1 and LM57TSPWRQ1 share identical package, Grade 0 Extended rating (−50°C to +160°C), and resistor-programmable architecture, but differ in factory-set hysteresis: LM57FSPWRQ1 has 5°C hysteresis, while LM57TSPWRQ1 has 10°C. This makes LM57FSPWRQ1 preferable for applications requiring tighter thermal control and faster recovery after overtemperature events.
Is LM57FSPWRQ1 compatible with 3.3 V microcontrollers?
Yes, LM57FSPWRQ1 operates from 2.4 V to 5.5 V and is fully compatible with 3.3 V microcontrollers. Its TOVER output is push-pull with VOH ≥ VDD − 0.45 V (≥2.85 V at VDD = 3.3 V), and TOVER is open-drain with VOL ≤ 0.45 V - both meeting standard 3.3 V logic thresholds. Input thresholds (VIH ≥ VDD − 0.5 V, VIL ≤ 0.5 V) also ensure robust interface with 3.3 V GPIOs.
