Temperature Sensor IC

1. TSic 206/203/201/306/316/303/301

The TSic series of temperature sensor ICs are specically

designed as a low-power solution for temperature mea-

surement in building automation, medical/pharma tech-

nologies, industrial and mobile applications. The TSic pro-

vides a simple temperature measurement and achieves

outstanding accuracy combined with long term stability.

The TSic has a high precision bandgap reference with a

PTAT (proportional-to-absolute-temperature) output, a

low-power and high-precision ADC and an on-chip DSP

core with an EEPROM for the precisely calibrated output

signal. The TSic temperature sensor is fully calibrated,

meaning no further calibration effort is required by the

customer.

Extended long wires (> 10 m) will not inuence the accuracy. The TSic is available with digital (ZacWireTM, TSic x06),

analog (0 V to 1V, TSic x01) or ratiometric (10 % to 90 % V+, TSic x03) output signal. The low power consumption of

about 35 µA makes it suitable for many applications.

With an accuracy of ±0.3 K in a temperature range of 80 K (e.g. +10 °C to +90 °C), the TSic sensors are more ac-

curate than a class F0.3 (IEC60751) platinum sensor. The tolerances of the TSic and F 0.3 and F 0.15 platinum sensors

are compared in Figure 1. With a standard calibration, the TSic 30x is more accurate than a F 0.3 platinum sensor in

the range of +10 °C to +110 °C. The range can be shifted up or downwards to reach a high accuracy between e.g.

-30 °C to +50 °C.

The TSic series of temperature sensor ICs are

specically designed as a low-power solution

for temperature measurement in building auto-

mation, medical / pharma technologies, indust-

rial and mobile applications. The TSic provides a

simple temperature measurement and achieves

The TSic has a high precision bandgap reference

with a PTAT (proportional-to-absolute-tempera-

for the precisely calibrated output signal.

The TSic temperature sensor is fully calibrated, meaning no further calibration effort is required by the customer. With

an accuracy of ±0.1 K in a range of 40 K (e.g. +5 °C to +45 °C), the sensor is more accurate than a class F0.1 (IEC

60751) platinum sensor. Extended long wires (> 10 m) will not inuence the accuracy. The TSic is available with digital

(ZacWireTM, TSic 506F),analog (0 V to 1 V, TSic 501F) or ratiometric (10 % to 90 % V+, TSic 503F) output signal. The

low power consumption of about 35 µA makes it suitable for many applications.

5. ZACwireTM Digital Output

5.1 TSic ZACwireTM Communication Protocol

ZACwireTM is a single wire bi-directional communication protocol. The bit encoding is similar to Manchester in that

clocking information is embedded into the signal (falling edges of the signal happen at regular periods). This allows

the protocol to be largely insensitive to baud rate differences between the two ICs communicating. In end-user appli-

cations, the TSic will be transmitting temperature information, and another IC in the system (most likely a µController)

will be reading the temperature data over the ZACwireTM.

5.2 Temperature Transmission Packet from a TSic

The TSic transmits 1-byte packets. These packets consist of a start bit, 8 data bits, and a parity bit. The nominal baud

rate is 8 kHz (125 µsec bit window). The signal is normally high. When a transmission occurs, the start bit occurs rst

followed by the data bits (MSB rst, LSB last). The packet ends with an even parity bit.

LSB (0)

Parity (Even)

Figure 1.1 – ZACwireTM Transmission Packet

The TSic provides temperature data with 11-bit or 14-bit resolution, and obviously these 11 bits or 14-bit of infor-

mation cannot be conveyed in a single packet. A complete temperature transmission from the TSic consists of two

packets. The rst packet contains the most signicant 3 bits or 6 bits of temperature information, and the second

packet contains the least signicant 8 bits of temperature information. There is a single bit window of high signal

(stop bit) between the end of the rst transmission and the start of the second transmission.

5.3 Bit Encoding

The bit format is duty cycle encoded:

Start bit => 50 % duty cycle used to set up strobe time

Logic 1 => 75 % duty cycle

Logic 0 => 25 % duty cycle

Perhaps the best way to show the bit encoding is with an oscilloscope trace of a ZACwireTM transmission. The follo-

wing shows a single packet of 96 Hex being transmitted. Because 96 Hex is already even parity, the parity bit is zero.

5.4 How to Read a Packet

When the falling edge of the start bit occurs, measure the time until the rising edge of the start bit. This time (Tstrobe)

is the strobe time. When the next falling edge occurs, wait for a time period equal to Tstrobe, and then sample the

ZACwireTM signal. The data present on the signal at this time is the bit being transmitted. Because every bit starts

with a falling edge, the sampling window is reset with every bit transmission. This means errors will not accrue for

bits downstream from the start bit, as it would with a protocol such as RS232. It is recommended, however, that the

sampling rate of the ZACwireTM signal when acquiring the start bit be at least 16x the nominal baud rate. Because the

nominal baud rate is 8 kHz, a 128 kHz sampling rate is recommended when acquiring Tstrobe.

5.5 How to Read a Packet using a µController

It is best to connect the ZACwireTM signal to a pin of the µController that is capable of causing an interrupt on a fal-

ling edge. When the falling edge of the start bit occurs, it causes the µController to branch to its ISR. The ISR enters

a counting loop incrementing a memory location (Tstrobe) until it sees a rise on the ZACwireTM signal. When Tstrobe has

been acquired, the ISR can simply wait for the next 9 falling edges (8-data, 1-parity). After each falling edge, it waits

for Tstrobe to expire and then sample the next bit.

The ZACwireTM line is driven by a strong CMOS push/pull driver. The parity bit is intended for use when the ZACwireTM

is driving long (> 2 m) interconnects to the µController in a noisy environment. For systems in which the “noise en-

vironment is more friendly”, the user can choose to have the µController ignore the parity bit. In the appendix of this

document is sample code for reading a TSic ZACwireTM transmission using a PIC16F627 µController.

5.6 How Often Does the TSic Transmit?

If the TSic is being read via an ISR, how often is it interrupting the µController with data? The update rate of the TSic

can be programmed to one of 4 different settings: 250 Hz, 10 Hz, 1 Hz, and 0.1 Hz. This is done during calibration

of the sensor on IST AG side. The standard update rate is 10 Hz (TSic 206, TSic 306, TSic 506) or 1 Hz (TSic 716). For

other update rates please contact IST AG. Servicing a temperature-read ISR requires about 2.7 ms. If the update rate

of the TSic is programmed to 250 Hz, then the µController spends about 66 % of its time reading the temperature

transmissions. If, however, the update rate is programmed to something more reasonable like 1 Hz, then the μCont-

roller spends about 0.27 % of its time reading the temperature transmissions.

5.7 Solutions if Real Time System Cannot Tolerate the TSic Interrupting the µController

Some real time systems cannot tolerate the TSic interrupting the µController. The µController must initiate the tempe-

rature read. This can be accomplished by using another pin of the µController to supply VDD to the TSic. The TSic will

transmit its rst temperature reading approximately 65-85 ms 1) (@RT) after power up. When the µController wants

to read the temperature, it rst powers the TSic using one of its port pins. It will receive a temperature transmission

approximately 65 ms to 85 ms later. If during that 85 ms, a higher priority interrupt occurs, the µController can simply

power down the TSic to ensure it will not cause an interrupt or be in the middle of a transmission when the high

priority ISR nishes. This method of powering the TSic has the additional benet of acting like a power down mode

and reducing the quiescent current from a nominal 45 µA to zero. The TSic is a mixed signal IC and provides best

performance with a clean VDD supply. Powering through a µController pin does subject it to the digital noise present

on the µController’s power supply. Therefore it is best to use a simple RC lter when powering the TSic with a µCon-

troller port pin. See the diagram below

1) This value is depending on the temperature. In lower temperatures this value can be lower too

5.8 Appendix A: An Example of PIC1 Assembly Code for Reading the ZACwireTM

In the following code example, it is assumed that the ZACwireTM pin is connected to the interrupt pin (PORTB, 0) of

the PIC and that the interrupt is congured for falling edge interruption.

This code should work for a PIC running between 2 MHz to12 MHz.
