LM35 sensor characteristics

As a sensor that has the ability to convert temperature into voltage, the LM35 has several special characteristics, namely:


  • It has temperature sensitivity, with a linear scale factor between voltage and temperature of 10 mVolt/ºC, so it can be calibrated directly in Celsius.
  • Has a calibration accuracy of 0.5ºC at a temperature of 25ºC.
  • Has a maximum operating temperature range between -55 ºC to +150 ºC.
  • Works on a voltage of 4 to 30 volts.
  • It has a low current of less than 60µA.
  • Has a low self-heating (low-heating) which is less than 0.1ºC in still air.
  • It has a low output impedance of 0.1 W for a 1 mA load.
  • It has a nonlinearity of only about ±¼ºC.
By studying the characteristics of this LM35 sensor, then you can find out when and for what this sensor will be used or added in a circuit.
