The AD592 is a two terminal monolithic integrated circuit tem-
perature transducer that provides an output current propor-
tional to absolute temperature. For a wide range of supply
voltages the transducer acts as a high impedance temperature
dependent current source of 1
µA/K.
Improved design and laser
wafer trimming of the IC’s thin film resistors allows the AD592
to achieve absolute accuracy levels and nonlinearity errors previ-
ously unattainable at a comparable price.
The AD592 can be employed in applications between –25°C
and +105°C where conventional temperature sensors (i.e., ther-
mistor, RTD, thermocouple, diode) are currently being used.
The inherent low cost of a monolithic integrated circuit in a
plastic package, combined with a low total parts count in any
given application, make the AD592 the most cost effective tem-
perature transducer currently available. Expensive linearization
circuitry, precision voltage references, bridge components, resis-
tance measuring circuitry and cold junction compensation are
not required with the AD592.
Typical application areas include: appliance temperature sens-
ing, automotive temperature measurement and control, HVAC
(heating/ventilating/air conditioning) system monitoring, indus-
trial temperature control, thermocouple cold junction compen-
sation, board-level electronics temperature diagnostics,
temperature readout options in instrumentation, and tempera-
ture correction circuitry for precision electronics. Particularly
useful in remote sensing applications, the AD592 is immune to
voltage drops and voltage noise over long lines due to its high
impedance current output. AD592s can easily be multiplexed;
the signal current can be switched by a CMOS multiplexer or
the supply voltage can be enabled with a tri-state logic gate.
The AD592 is available in three performance grades: the
AD592AN, AD592BN and AD592CN. All devices are pack-
aged in a plastic TO-92 case rated from –45°C to +125°C. Per-
formance is specified from –25°C to +105°C. AD592 chips are
also available, contact the factory for details.
1. With a single supply (4 V to 30 V) the AD592 offers
0.5°C temperature measurement accuracy.
2. A wide operating temperature range (–25°C to +105°C)
and highly linear output make the AD592 an ideal sub-
stitute for older, more limited sensor technologies (i.e.,
thermistors, RTDs, diodes, thermocouples).
3. The AD592 is electrically rugged; supply irregularities
and variations or reverse voltages up to 20 V will not
damage the device.
4. Because the AD592 is a temperature dependent current
source, it is immune to voltage noise pickup and IR
drops in the signal leads when used remotely.
5. The high output impedance of the AD592 provides
greater than 0.5°C/V rejection of supply voltage drift and
ripple.
6. Laser wafer trimming and temperature testing insures
that AD592 units are easily interchangeable.
7. Initial system accuracy will not degrade significantly over
time. The AD592 has proven long term performance
and repeatability advantages inherent in integrated cir-
cuit design and construction.

THEORY OF OPERATION
TOTAL ERROR –

C
The AD592 uses a fundamental property of silicon transistors
to realize its temperature proportional output. If two identical
transistors are operated at a constant ratio of collector current
densities, r, then the difference in base-emitter voltages will be
(kT/q)(ln r). Since both k, Boltzman’s constant and q, the
charge of an electron are constant, the resulting voltage is
directly Proportional To Absolute Temperature (PTAT). In the
AD592 this difference voltage is converted to a PTAT current
by low temperature coefficient thin film resistors. This PTAT
current is then used to force the total output current to be pro-
portional to degrees Kelvin. The result is a current source with
an output equal to a scale factor times the temperature (K) of
the sensor. A typical V-I plot of the circuit at +25°C and the
temperature extremes is shown in Figure 1.
resistor. Note that the maximum error at room temperature,
over the commercial IC temperature range, or an extended
range including the boiling point of water, can be directly read
from the specifications table. All three error limits are a combi-
nation of initial error, scale factor variation and nonlinearity de-
viation from the ideal 1
µA/K
output. Figure 2 graphically
depicts the guaranteed limits of accuracy for an AD592CN.

Factory trimming of the scale factor to 1
µA/K
is accomplished
at the wafer level by adjusting the AD592’s temperature reading
so it corresponds to the actual temperature. During laser trim-
ming the IC is at a temperature within a few degrees of 25°C
and is powered by a 5 V supply. The device is then packaged
and automatically temperature tested to specification.
FACTORS AFFECTING AD592 SYSTEM PRECISION
The AD592 has a highly linear output in comparison to older
technology sensors (i.e., thermistors, RTDs and thermo-
couples), thus a nonlinearity error specification is separated
from the absolute accuracy given over temperature. As a maxi-
mum deviation from a best-fit straight line this specification rep-
resents the only error which cannot be trimmed out. Figure 3 is
a plot of typical AD592CN nonlinearity over the full rated tem-
perature range.

The accuracy limits given on the Specifications page for the
AD592 make it easy to apply in a variety of diverse applications.
To calculate a total error budget in a given system it is impor-
tant to correctly interpret the accuracy specifications, non-
linearity errors, the response of the circuit to supply voltage
variations and the effect of the surrounding thermal environ-
ment. As with other electronic designs external component se-
lection will have a major effect on accuracy.

TRIMMING FOR HIGHER ACCURACY
Three primary limits of error are given for the AD592 such that
the correct grade for any given application can easily be chosen
for the overall level of accuracy required. They are the calibra-
tion accuracy at +25°C, and the error over temperature from
0°C to +70°C and –25°C to +105°C. These specifications cor-
respond to the actual error the user would see if the current out-
put of an AD592 were converted to a voltage with a precision

ture trim. Figure 4 shows how to adjust the AD592’s scale fac-
