Max\Min Temp and the Max\Min Temp Flag
The TMP103 sensor has a built-in flag to indicate when a device is measuring temperatures above or
below a set range. This flag can be useful to notify the user when ambient temperatures go beyond a
desired range. The TMP103 sensor maximum measurable values are from –40°C to +125°C. When a
temperature violates the max or min temp flag, the respective temp toggles on and remains on until the
temperatures return to the designated range. The TMP103A is shown signaling a flag by violating the max
temperature in

setting can be changed individually by clicking the checkbox beneath the thermometer. If the user desires
to change all of these settings at once, simply toggle the
To Fahren
button in the bottom right-hand corner
of the software display. See
