When using resistive heaters, stability can only be consistently achieved when specified temperatures are 10°C or more
above ambient.
2
The sensor bias source has a compliance up to (V
DD_WTC
– 2.0 V). In normal operation this limits the sensor voltage range
to (0.25 V to V
DD_WTC
– 2.0 V). While voltages up to ±0.5 V outside this range on the EXT T SET pin will not damage the unit,
the controller will not provide proper control under these conditions.
3
This specification is only valid for Product Revision C. The model revision can be found by looking at the serial number on
the cover, the third character indicates revision (for example, a Revision C model might have the serial number 00
C
1722003).
Revisions A and B of the LDTCxx20 were 0 to 2.5 V for this specification.
NOTE: Operation at V
S
> 5 V or V
DD_FL
> 5 V requires evaluation of the SOA curves and current limit settings. Damage to
the LDTC will occur if it is operated outside the Safe Operating Area (SOA). See our online SOA calculator for:
