Digital temperature sensor in a through-hole DIP
The DS1631+ from Analog Devices is a digital local temperature sensor that communicates over an I²C bus and delivers 11-bit resolution. It is housed in an 8-pin PDIP package for through-hole mounting, making it a natural fit for breadboard prototyping, legacy PCB layouts, or applications where socketed installation is preferred over surface-mount. Key features include programmable temperature limits with an output switch, programmable resolution, a one-shot conversion mode for single-read operations, and a standby mode to reduce supply current between measurements. Accuracy is rated at ±0.5°C typical and ±2°C maximum over the full -55°C to 125°C operating range, which covers industrial, automotive under-hood, and outdoor telecom enclosure environments.
Sourcing and lifecycle — active, no obsolescence concern
The DS1631+ carries an Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. There is no end-of-life notice or last-time-buy window to track. For BOM planning, this part can be specified into new designs without a near-term requalification risk.
