Product details
Overview
TMP275AQDGKRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive digital temperature sensor with ±0.75°C accuracy (−10°C to +85°C), 12-bit resolution, and I²C/SMBus interface - used for thermal protection in engine control units, battery management, and infotainment processors.
For engineers reviewing the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 datasheet, TMP275AQDGKRQ1 pinout, TMP275AQDGKRQ1 application, or TMP275AQDGKRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, automotive-grade thermal performance, register-level interface behavior, and validated alternatives for ECU, BCM, and ADAS thermal monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The TMP275AQDGKRQ1 integrates a ΔΣ ADC, on-chip diode temperature sensor, oscillator, and SMBus/I²C slave interface with programmable resolution (9–12 bits) and configurable alert modes (comparator or interrupt). It operates across −40°C to +125°C ambient with no external components required.
Its three address pins (A0–A2) support up to eight devices per bus; ALERT is open-drain with SMBus Alert protocol support; SDA/SCL include Schmitt triggers and spike suppression. Shutdown mode reduces current to 0.1 µA while retaining bus responsiveness.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital temperature sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TMP175AQDGKRQ1 | Same pinout, register map, and accuracy (±0.75°C), but lower max operating temperature (−40°C to +105°C) | Not qualified for full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 range; unsuitable for under-hood ECU use above +105°C | Select TMP175AQDGKRQ1 only when ambient temperature stays ≤+105°C and footprint reuse is critical |
| LM75BIMM/NOPB | Non-automotive grade; ±2°C accuracy (−25°C to +100°C); no AEC-Q100 qualification or SMBus Alert support | Lacks HBM/CDM ESD ratings and thermal range for automotive deployment; intended for industrial/commercial use | Use LM75BIMM/NOPB only in non-safety-critical, non-automotive systems where cost is prioritized over qualification |
Compared with TMP175AQDGKRQ1 and LM75BIMM/NOPB, the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 uniquely delivers full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance, SMBus Alert arbitration, and guaranteed ±0.75°C accuracy across −40°C to +125°C - making it the only drop-in option for production automotive ECUs requiring functional safety alignment.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TMP275AQDGKRQ1?
The TMP275AQDGKRQ1 is specified for −40°C to +125°C ambient operating temperature and qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards. Its absolute maximum junction temperature is 150°C, and storage temperature range is −60°C to +130°C - enabling reliable deployment in under-hood and powertrain control applications where thermal stress is extreme.
Does the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 require external components for basic operation?
No, the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 requires no external components for core temperature sensing functionality. Only two external pullup resistors on SDA and SCL lines (and optionally on ALERT) are needed for I²C/SMBus communication. A 0.01-µF supply bypass capacitor on V+ is recommended but not mandatory for stable operation within spec.
How does the ALERT pin function in comparator versus interrupt mode on the TMP275AQDGKRQ1?
In comparator mode (TM = 0), the ALERT pin remains asserted until temperature falls below TLOW after exceeding THIGH. In interrupt mode (TM = 1), ALERT activates on THIGH/TLOW breach and clears automatically upon reading the temperature register - enabling precise event capture without polling overhead in the TMP275AQDGKRQ1's firmware interface.
Can the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 be used on the same I²C bus as legacy LM75 devices?
Yes, the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 is pin- and register-compatible with the LM75, TMP75, TMP75B, and TMP175 families. It shares identical address mapping, pointer register structure, and temperature data format - allowing direct hardware and software substitution without PCB or firmware changes in existing LM75-based designs.
What is the conversion time for 12-bit resolution on the TMP275AQDGKRQ1?
At 12-bit resolution, the TMP275AQDGKRQ1 requires 220 ms (typical) to 300 ms (maximum) for a full temperature conversion. This timing is guaranteed across the full −40°C to +125°C operating range and 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply voltage, enabling deterministic thermal sampling intervals in real-time automotive control loops.
