Product details
Overview
TMP708AIDBVR from Texas Instruments is a resistor-programmable temperature switch in SOT-23 (DBV) package, featuring ±0.5°C typical threshold accuracy, 40 μA typical quiescent current, and pin-selectable 10°C/30°C hysteresis - used for overtemperature protection in microprocessor-based systems.
For engineers reviewing the TMP708AIDBVR datasheet, TMP708AIDBVR pinout, TMP708AIDBVR application, or TMP708AIDBVR equivalent, key selection criteria include external RSET-based trip-point programming (0°C to 125°C), open-drain active-low output compatibility with 2.7 V–5.5 V supply rails, and hysteresis configuration via HYST pin logic level.
Technical Context
The TMP708AIDBVR integrates dual temperature-dependent voltage references (one positive tempco, one negative tempco) and a comparator to determine trip point when their voltages intersect. The SET pin accepts an external 1% resistor to set threshold across 0°C–125°C range.
Hysteresis is controlled digitally via the HYST pin: logic high (VCC) selects 10°C hysteresis; logic low (GND) selects 30°C. The OT pin delivers open-drain, active-low output with 5 mA sink capability at 0.3 V, enabling direct interface with microprocessor reset or interrupt inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Threshold Accuracy | ±0.5°C typical, ±3°C max (60°C–100°C): enables precise thermal trip without calibration. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V: supports direct connection to common logic rails including 3.3 V and 5 V systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 40 μA typical: minimizes power impact in battery-backed or always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Hysteresis Options | 10°C (HYST = VCC) or 30°C (HYST = GND): prevents output oscillation near trip point without external components. |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low OT pin: allows wired-OR configuration and flexible pull-up voltage selection. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C: suitable for industrial, automotive, and server environments with wide ambient swings. |
| Package | SOT-23 (DBV), 5-pin, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm: compact footprint compatible with high-density PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (DBV) package: 5-pin, surface-mount, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body size, 1.45 mm max height, moisture sensitivity level 2 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – SET | Analog input | Connects external 1% resistor to GND to program trip temperature (0°C–125°C); sets positive tempco reference voltage. |
| 2 – GND | Analog ground | Reference node for internal circuitry and RSET; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 3 – OT | Digital output | Open-drain, active-low output; sinks up to 5 mA at 0.3 V; requires external pull-up to VCC or logic rail. |
| 4 – HYST | Digital input | Selects hysteresis: tie to VCC for 10°C, tie to GND for 30°C; floating or intermediate voltages cause malfunction. |
| 5 – VCC | Analog power | 2.7 V–5.5 V supply input; requires 0.1 µF bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin per layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Resistor-programmable threshold | Single 1% external resistor (RSET) sets trip point from 0°C to 125°C - eliminates need for trimming or digital configuration. |
| Pin-selectable hysteresis | Hardware-selectable 10°C or 30°C hysteresis via HYST pin logic level - no firmware or external timing components required. |
| Low-power operation | 40 μA typical supply current enables use in energy-sensitive applications such as portable equipment and always-on thermal monitors. |
| Robust output interface | Open-drain OT output supports mixed-voltage systems and simplifies integration with microprocessor reset/interrupt inputs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar temperature switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TMP275AIDBVR | Digitally programmable (I²C), ±0.5°C accuracy, 10-bit resolution, 1.7 V–5.5 V supply - requires MCU interface and firmware support. | Used where adjustable thresholds or logging capability is needed; not suitable for standalone hardware trip applications. | Select TMP275AIDBVR only if digital configurability and temperature readback are required; TMP708AIDBVR remains optimal for fixed, resistor-set hardware protection. |
| TMP1075NQDGKRQ1 | Automotive-grade (AEC-Q100), ±0.5°C accuracy, 1.8 V–5.5 V, I²C interface - qualified for under-hood use but lacks resistor-programmable simplicity. | Targeted at automotive infotainment or ADAS modules requiring qualification and digital bus integration. | Choose TMP1075NQDGKRQ1 for AEC-Q100-compliant designs needing I²C telemetry; TMP708AIDBVR offers lower BOM count and zero-firmware thermal cutoff. |
Compared with TMP275AIDBVR and TMP1075NQDGKRQ1, the TMP708AIDBVR delivers faster, deterministic overtemperature response without MCU dependency or communication overhead - ideal for safety-critical hardware reset paths where simplicity and reliability outweigh configurability.

FAQ
What is the recommended external resistor tolerance for accurate trip-point setting on the TMP708AIDBVR?
The TMP708AIDBVR datasheet specifies use of a 1% tolerance resistor between SET and GND to achieve the stated ±0.5°C typical threshold accuracy. Using a 5% resistor introduces additional error that may exceed the ±3°C maximum specification over 60°C–100°C, especially at extreme trip points. For production designs targeting tight thermal margins, 0.5% or 0.1% resistors further improve repeatability but are not required for nominal operation.
Can the TMP708AIDBVR operate reliably at VCC = 2.7 V while maintaining full accuracy specifications?
Yes, the TMP708AIDBVR is fully specified from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, including all electrical characteristics: ±0.5°C typical threshold accuracy, 40 μA typical quiescent current, and proper hysteresis behavior remain valid at minimum supply. The device also guarantees reset operation down to VCC = 0.8 V, ensuring fail-safe behavior during brownout conditions - a key feature confirmed in the datasheet's "Reset Operation Specified at VCC = 0.8 V" bullet.
How does hysteresis selection affect the actual trip and release temperatures of the TMP708AIDBVR?
Hysteresis defines the temperature difference between trip (assertion) and release (deassertion) points. With HYST = VCC, the TMP708AIDBVR trips at the programmed threshold (e.g., 85°C) and releases at 75°C (10°C below). With HYST = GND, it trips at 85°C and releases at 55°C (30°C below). This gap prevents output chatter near threshold and is implemented internally via bias adjustment of the positive tempco reference - no external components are needed.
Is the TMP708AIDBVR pin-compatible with other devices in the TMP708 family, such as TMP708AIDBVT?
Yes, all TMP708 variants including TMP708AIDBVR and TMP708AIDBVT share identical SOT-23 (DBV) 5-pin package, pinout, and functional behavior. The suffix differences indicate tape-and-reel packaging (DBVR = 3000-piece reel) versus cut-tape (DBVT), not electrical or mechanical variation. Layouts designed for TMP708AIDBVR can accept any DBV-packaged TMP708 without modification.
What is the maximum recommended pull-up resistor value for the OT pin of the TMP708AIDBVR?
The TMP708AIDBVR OT pin supports pull-up resistors up to 470 kΩ while maintaining guaranteed 5 mA sink capability at 0.3 V. However, higher values increase rise time and noise susceptibility. For most applications, 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended: 10 kΩ ensures fast edge transitions for microprocessor reset inputs, while 100 kΩ balances power savings and noise immunity. Values above 220 kΩ should be validated for timing margin in high-speed or noisy environments.
