Example Projects
The 10 mV reading should typically be within ± 200 µV of the actual value. The ADC gain error is the
main factor driving this error and PSoC 3 ADC with a maximum gain error of 0.2 percent keeps the
measurement inaccuracy to <100 µV.
5.3.2.4.3
RTD
RTD temperature is simulated with a potentiometer, similar to the testing for the tempsense project.
Following are the test results.
5.3.2.4.4
Diode
The diode is typically within ± 2°C. See the description in
Expected Performance and Test Results on
to understand more about the expected error and thermal considerations.

DS600 IC Temperature Sensor
The DS600 typically is within ± 0.5°C.
