MAX6511/MAX6512/MAX6513是业界首枚利用远端二极管感测温度的热敏开关。这些完全集成的器件通过一只外接的、连接为二极管形式的晶体管测量温度。作为温度敏感元件的晶体管可以是一只分立的小信号晶体管,或者也可以是另外一片 IC,例如微处理器内部集成的晶体管。 The MAX6511 / MAX6512 / MAX6513 are the industry’s first thermal switches that sense temperature using remote diodes. These fully integrated devices measure temperature through an external, diode-connected transistor. The transistor as a temperature sensitive element can be a separate small signal transistor, or it can be another piece of IC, such as a microprocessor integrated inside the transistor.
