Product details

12-bit digital temp sensor with I²C bus

The MCP9804-E/MC is a local digital temperature sensor from Microchip Technology, outputting temperature data over an I²C/SMBus interface with 12-bit resolution — that's 0.0625°C per LSB, fine enough to catch a 5°C overtemperature trip before the silicon hits the wall.

Supply range and interface flexibility

Built-in features include an output switch, programmable limit registers, programmable resolution, and a shutdown mode — the shutdown mode drops quiescent current to near zero for battery-powered gear that only needs temperature readings on demand.

Active production and compliance

Product status is Active with a current lifecycle stage — no end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy pressure. RoHS3 compliant (no exemptions), which simplifies EU and UKCA market entry. No stock-holding claim — confirm quantity and lead time per your BOM line.

Frequently asked questions

What is the accuracy of the MCP9804-E/MC?

The ±0.25°C figure is the one that matters for precision thermal monitoring — the ±1°C is the guaranteed worst-case corner.

What package does the MCP9804-E/MC come in?

It ships in an 8-VFDFN exposed pad package (supplier device package 8-DFN, 2x3 mm).
