Product details
Overview
TMP708AIDBVT from Texas Instruments is a resistor-programmable temperature switch in SOT-23 package, functioning as an overtemperature protection device with open-drain active-low output, ±0.5°C typical threshold accuracy (60°C–100°C), 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply range, and pin-selectable 10°C/30°C hysteresis - used for thermal monitoring in microprocessor-based systems.
For engineers reviewing the TMP708AIDBVT datasheet, TMP708AIDBVT pinout, TMP708AIDBVT application, or TMP708AIDBVT equivalent, key selection factors include external RSET-based trip-point programming, low 40 μA quiescent current, HYST pin logic configuration, and compatibility with standard 5-pin SOT-23 PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The TMP708AIDBVT integrates dual temperature-dependent voltage references (one positive tempco, one negative tempco) and a comparator to determine trip point; the SET pin accepts a 1% external resistor (RSET) that sets the threshold from 0°C to 125°C via analog voltage division.
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 capable of sinking up to 12 mA at 0.3 V, compatible with standard microprocessor reset or interrupt inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports direct connection to common logic rails without LDO regulation. |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±0.5°C typical, ±3°C max (60°C–100°C) - enables precise thermal trip points for CPU/GPU thermal throttling. |
| Quiescent Current | 40 μA typical - minimizes system standby 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 - allows wired-OR configuration and flexible pull-up to any logic rail (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V). |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - rated for industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
| Package | SOT-23 (DBV), 5-pin, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm - surface-mount compatible with automated assembly and space-constrained PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (DBV) 5-pin plastic package, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body size, 1.45 mm maximum height, JEDEC MO-178 compliant; designed for reflow soldering with MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SET | Analog input | Connects external 1% resistor to GND to set temperature trip point (0°C–125°C); determines reference voltage ratio. |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground | Device substrate reference; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane for thermal and noise stability. |
| 3 - OT | Digital output | Open-drain, active-low output; sinks up to 12 mA; requires external pull-up for logic-level interface with microprocessors. |
| 4 - HYST | Digital input | Selects hysteresis: VCC = 10°C, GND = 30°C; floating state causes malfunction - must be hard-wired. |
| 5 - VCC | Analog power | 2.7 V–5.5 V supply input; requires 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Resistor-programmable threshold | Single 1% external RSET sets trip point across full 0°C–125°C range - eliminates need for trimming or calibration ICs. |
| Low-power operation | 40 μA typical supply current - enables continuous monitoring in energy-sensitive applications like portable SSDs or fanless edge devices. |
| Dual hysteresis selection | PIN-controlled 10°C/30°C hysteresis - avoids external RC networks while ensuring stable switching behavior near threshold. |
| Microprocessor-compatible output | Open-drain OT pin with 12 mA sink capability - directly interfaces with reset/interrupt inputs on ARM Cortex, x86, or RISC-V SoCs. |
| Robust thermal design | Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 217.9°C/W - die temperature tracks package temperature closely when mounted with thermal vias. |
Applications
| Laptop CPU Thermal Protection | Industrial PLC Overtemperature Monitoring |
|---|---|
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dedicated thermal guard IC connected to SoC's thermal diode output, asserting OT signal to PMIC to reduce core voltage/frequency. Use Value: Supports 125°C max operating temperature and 30°C hysteresis mode - prevents repeated cycling during slow thermal decay in sealed enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar temperature switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM75BIMM/NOPB | I²C digital output, fixed 75°C threshold, no external RSET, higher 250 μA supply current | Requires MCU firmware support; unsuitable for standalone reset generation | Choose when system already uses I²C bus and needs multi-sensor daisy-chaining. |
| MAX6505UTP+T | Fixed 125°C threshold, no hysteresis selection, 1.7 V–5.5 V supply, 12 μA quiescent current | Lacks programmability and configurable hysteresis - limited to single-point overtemperature cutoff | Choose only for cost-sensitive designs where fixed trip point suffices and ultra-low power is mandatory. |
Compared with LM75BIMM/NOPB and MAX6505UTP+T, the TMP708AIDBVT uniquely combines resistor-based trip-point flexibility, pin-selectable hysteresis, and microamp-level quiescent current - making it optimal for embedded systems requiring hardware-level thermal control without processor dependency.

FAQ
What is the recommended RSET value for a 75°C trip point on the TMP708AIDBVT?
The TMP708AIDBVT uses the quadratic equation RSET (kΩ) = 0.0012T² – 0.9308T + 96.147, where T = 75°C. Solving yields ~29.7 kΩ; a 1% standard value of 29.4 kΩ is recommended. The datasheet Figure 2 confirms this aligns with measured trip accuracy within ±0.5°C typical tolerance. Always verify final trip point with thermal chamber testing due to board-level thermal gradients.
Can the TMP708AIDBVT operate reliably at 125°C junction temperature?
Yes - the TMP708AIDBVT is fully specified from –40°C to +125°C ambient, with absolute maximum junction temperature rated at 150°C. Its 217.9°C/W θJA and 40 μA quiescent current ensure minimal self-heating; at 125°C ambient and 5.5 V supply, die temperature remains within safe limits even with moderate PCB copper area.
Is the TMP708AIDBVT pin-compatible with other SOT-23 temperature switches like the TMP275?
No - the TMP708AIDBVT has unique pin mapping (SET/GND/OT/HYST/VCC) incompatible with I²C-based devices such as the TMP275 (SDA/SCL/ALERT/VCC/GND). Substitution would require PCB layout revision and firmware changes; only direct TI-recommended alternatives like TMP708AIDBVR share identical pinout and functionality.
How does hysteresis selection affect the untrip temperature of the TMP708AIDBVT?
When configured for 10°C hysteresis (HYST = VCC), the TMP708AIDBVT untrips at trip temperature minus 10°C; for 30°C hysteresis (HYST = GND), untrip occurs at trip temperature minus 30°C. For example, with a 85°C trip and 30°C hysteresis, OT returns high only after temperature falls to 55°C - preventing chatter during slow cooldown in enclosed enclosures.
Does the TMP708AIDBVT require a bypass capacitor on the VCC pin?
Yes - a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor must be placed as close as possible to the VCC pin. This suppresses supply noise that could cause false trips; the datasheet explicitly states noise on VCC results in trip-point error. Use X7R dielectric with low ESR, and avoid shared vias with other ICs to maintain local decoupling integrity.
