Product details

10 mV/°C scale — the calibration constant

The output scales at 10 mV/°C, so 25°C reads 250 mV on the ADC input. The ±1.5°C accuracy at 25°C sets the system error floor — the rest comes from the ADC reference drift and the PCB trace resistance.

TO-46 metal can — hermetic seal matters

The TO-206AB / TO-46-3 metal can package is the differentiator here. Unlike the plastic TO-92 LM35, the hermetic TO-46 keeps moisture out, which matters in condensing environments, vacuum chambers, or any board that sees conformal-coat solvents.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to LM35DH?

The LM35CZ (TO-92 plastic package) is the same die in a different package, but it lacks the hermetic seal. For a drop-in TO-46 replacement, the LM35AH offers a wider temperature range (−55°C to 150°C) at a higher accuracy grade.
