The AD590 is a 2-terminal integrated circuit temperature trans-ducer that produces an output current proportional to absolute temperature. For supply voltages between 4 V and 30 V, the device acts as a high impedance, constant current regulator passing 1 μA/K. Laser trimming of the chip’s thin-film resistors is used to calibrate the device to 298.2 μA output at 298.2 K (25°C).The AD590 should be used in any temperature-sensing application below 150°C in which conventional electrical temperature sensors are currently employed. The inherent low cost of a monolithic integrated circuit combined with the elimination of support circuitry makes the AD590 an attractive alternative for many temperature measurement situations. Linearization circuitry, precision voltage amplifiers, resistance measuring circuitry, and cold junction compensation are not needed in applying the AD590.In addition to temperature measurement, applications include temperature compensation or correction of discrete components, biasing proportional to absolute temperature, flow rate measurement, level detection of fluids and anemometry. The AD590 is available in die form, making it suitable for hybrid circuits and fast temperature measurements in protected environments.The AD590 is particularly useful in remote sensing applications. The device is insensitive to voltage drops over long lines due to its high impedance current output. Any well-insulated twisted pair is sufficient for operation at hundreds of feet from the receiving circuitry. The output characteristics also make the AD590 easy to multiplex: the current can be switched by a CMOS multiplexer, or the supply voltage can be switched by a logic gate output.PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS The AD590 is a calibrated, 2-terminal temperature sensor requiring only a dc voltage supply (4 V to 30 V). Costly transmitters, filters, lead wire compensation, and linearization circuits are all unnecessary in applying the device. State-of-the-art laser trimming at the wafer level in conjunction with extensive final testing ensures that AD590 units are easily interchangeable. Superior interface rejection occurs because the output is a current rather than a voltage. In addition, power requirements are low (1.5 mW @ 5 V @ 25°C). These features make the AD590 easy to apply as a remote sensor. The high output impedance (>10 MΩ) provides excellent rejection of supply voltage drift. For instance, changing the power supply from 5 V to 10 V results in only a 1 μA maximum current change, or 1°C equivalent error. The AD590 is electrically durable: it withstands a forward voltage of up to 44 V and a reverse voltage of 20 V. Therefore, supply irregularities or pin reversal does not damage the device.

Additional Details:

The AD590 is a 2-terminal integrated circuit temperature sensor that generates an output current directly proportional to absolute temperature. With supply voltages ranging from 4 V to 30 V, it functions as a high-impedance, constant-current source, delivering 1 μA per Kelvin. The chip's thin-film resistors are laser-trimmed to ensure a precise output of 298.2 μA at 298.2 K (25°C).

The AD590 is ideal for temperature-sensing applications below 150°C, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional electrical temperature sensors. Its monolithic design eliminates the need for additional support circuits like linearization, precision amplifiers, resistance measurement, or cold junction compensation.

Beyond temperature measurement, the AD590 is suitable for applications such as temperature compensation, biasing proportional to absolute temperature, flow rate measurement, fluid level detection, and anemometry. Available in die form, it is well-suited for hybrid circuits and rapid temperature measurement in protected environments.

The AD590 excels in remote sensing applications, thanks to its high-impedance current output, which minimizes the effect of voltage drops over long distances. A well-insulated twisted pair can transmit data over hundreds of feet to the receiving circuitry. Additionally, the AD590 is easy to multiplex, as its current can be switched using a CMOS multiplexer, or the supply voltage can be controlled by a logic gate output.
