APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Temperature Thresholds
The threshold voltages at VT1 and VT2 can be set with
the 1.8V reference voltage (V
REF
) and a resistive divider
as shown in Figure 5.
The following design procedure can be used to size the
resistive divider.
1. Calculate Threshold Voltages:
VT1 = T1• 4

VT2 = T2 • 4

where η
ACT
denotes the actual ideality factor if an ex ternal
sensor is used and T1 and T2 are the desired threshold
temperatures in degrees Kelvin.
2. Choose R
TA
to obtain the desired VT1 threshold for
a desired current through the resistive divider
(I

):
