Product details
Overview
LMT89DCKT from Texas Instruments is a precision analog-output CMOS temperature sensor with SC70-5 package, operating from +2.4 V to +5.5 V supply and delivering ±1.5°C accuracy at 30°C across −55°C to 130°C (at V+ ≥ 2.7 V). Its parabolic transfer function VO = (−3.88×10⁻⁶×T²) + (−1.15×10⁻²×T) + 1.8639 V enables high-fidelity thermal monitoring in battery-powered MCU ADC interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LMT89DCKT datasheet, LMT89DCKT pinout, LMT89DCKT application, or LMT89DCKT equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated SC70-5 terminal mapping, confirmed thermal error behavior across supply voltage ranges, and two field-tested alternative sensors for centigrade sensing in industrial and automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The LMT89DCKT integrates a forward-biased base-emitter junction as its sensing element, buffered by a Class-A amplifier with low-impedance analog output (160 Ω max, sourcing up to 16 µA). Its transfer function is intentionally parabolic-enabling ±1.5°C typical accuracy at 30°C and predictable curvature error across full range.
Supply voltage directly governs operational temperature extremes: at 2.4 V, range contracts to −30°C to 130°C; at 2.7–5.5 V, full −55°C to 130°C is supported. Quiescent current remains below 10 µA (4.5–10 µA measured), limiting self-heating to <0.02°C in still air-eliminating need for external shutdown circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2.4 V to +5.5 V - supports direct Li-ion cell and 3.3 V/5 V logic rails without regulation |
| Temperature Range | −55°C to +130°C (at V+ ≥ 2.7 V); −30°C to +130°C (at V+ = 2.4 V) - voltage-gated thermal coverage |
| Accuracy | ±1.5°C at 30°C (parabolic fit); ±2.5°C at range extremes - calibrated curvature enables high-fidelity linearization |
| Output Impedance | 160 Ω max - drives standard MCU ADC inputs without buffer; stable under ≤300 pF capacitive load |
| Quiescent Current | 4.5–10 µA - enables always-on thermal monitoring in ultra-low-power systems (e.g., battery-backed modules) |
| Sensitivity | −11.77 mV/°C average slope (−30°C to +100°C) - provides >1.5 V output swing over 100°C span for 12-bit ADC resolution |
| Shutdown Current | 0.02 µA at V+ ≤ 0.8 V - intrinsic low-power operation eliminates need for external enable control |
Pinout & Package
SC70-5 (DCK) package: 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed die attach paddle connected to Pin 2 (GND) for optimal thermal conduction to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - NC | No-connect | Must be left floating or grounded; no signal routing permitted - prevents parasitic coupling into sensitive analog core |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference & thermal path | Die attach paddle connection; must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal stability and noise immunity |
| 3 - VO | Analog output | Parabolic voltage output (1.8639 V at 0°C); low-impedance source for direct ADC interface without buffering |
| 4 - V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.4–5.5 V; voltage level determines operational temperature range and line regulation performance |
| 5 - GND | Signal ground | Dedicated analog ground return; must be routed separately from power ground to minimize noise injection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Predictable parabolic transfer function | Enables software linearization with <±0.4% non-linearity (−20°C to +80°C) and ±1.0°C variance from curve |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | <10 µA operation allows direct connection to GPIO outputs or battery cells without regulator or switch |
| Voltage-dependent temperature range | Full −55°C to +130°C enabled at ≥2.7 V; −30°C to +130°C at 2.4 V - simplifies design for multi-rail systems |
| Robust capacitive load drive | Stable with ≤300 pF loads; no decoupling required - reduces BOM count in space-constrained layouts |
| Intrinsic shutdown capability | Self-heating <0.02°C in still air eliminates need for external enable logic or power gating circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog-output temperature sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMT84DCKT | Lower supply range (1.8–5.5 V); ±2.7°C max error at extremes; same SC70-5 package and pinout | Better suited for 1.8 V logic domains; reduced accuracy limits use in high-precision industrial calibration | Select when operating below 2.4 V or when ±2.7°C error is acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer applications |
| LM60QIM3X/NOPB | Wider temp range (−40°C to +125°C); linear output (−6.25 mV/°C); 125 µA quiescent current; SOT-23-3 | Higher power draw precludes battery-only operation; simpler linear math but lower resolution over wide spans | Choose for automotive AEC-Q200 compliance and simplified firmware where 125 µA supply current is tolerable |
Compared with LMT89DCKT, LMT84DCKT offers lower-voltage compatibility at the expense of accuracy, while LM60QIM3X/NOPB provides AEC-Q200 qualification and linear output-but requires 12× more supply current and sacrifices parabolic fidelity for ease of implementation.

FAQ
What is the functional status of LMT89DCKT per Texas Instruments?
LMT89DCKT is marked as Obsolete in TI's official packaging addendum (dated 31-Oct-2025), with no active production or large-reel ordering. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory with full traceability and supports continued use in existing designs through lifecycle coordination and last-time-buy planning for LMT89DCKT.
Can LMT89DCKT operate from a single 3.7 V Li-ion cell?
Yes, LMT89DCKT operates across +2.4 V to +5.5 V, making it fully compatible with nominal 3.7 V Li-ion cells across their discharge curve (≈4.2 V down to ≈2.8 V). At 2.8 V, the device retains full −55°C to +130°C range, ensuring uninterrupted thermal monitoring in portable LMT89DCKT-based systems.
How does supply voltage affect LMT89DCKT's temperature range?
LMT89DCKT's minimum operating temperature shifts with supply voltage: at 2.4 V, range is −30°C to +130°C; at 2.7–5.5 V, full −55°C to +130°C is supported. This voltage-gated behavior is inherent to the LMT89DCKT's internal biasing and must be accounted for in system-level thermal specification.
What is the maximum capacitive load LMT89DCKT can drive without compensation?
LMT89DCKT drives up to 300 pF capacitively loaded outputs without external compensation or series resistance, per TI's Figure 2 test configuration. Its 160 Ω max output impedance and Class-A output stage ensure stability-making LMT89DCKT ideal for direct connection to long traces or unbuffered ADC inputs.
Is LMT89DCKT pin-compatible with other SC70-5 temperature sensors?
LMT89DCKT uses a unique 5-pin SC70 layout with NC on Pin 1 and dual GND pins (Pins 2 and 5), differing from standard 3-pin SC70 analog sensors (e.g., LM60). Direct replacement requires PCB redesign; however, LMT84DCKT shares identical pinout and package, enabling drop-in substitution where accuracy requirements allow.
