Device Overview
Texas Instruments LM35CAZ/NOPB is an analog temperature sensor in the TO-92 package. The CA orderable grade should be preserved when comparing accuracy-grade alternatives.
Selection-Critical Data
| Parameter | Confirmed Data | Engineering Relevance |
|---|---|---|
| Sensor type | Analog temperature sensor | Must match the required sensing architecture and analog-output interface. |
| Supply range | 4 to 30 V | Defines compatibility with the available supply rail. |
| Supply current | Less than 60 uA | Affects power budget and helps limit sensor self-heating. |
| Grade | CA orderable grade | Accuracy grade must be preserved when evaluating substitutes. |
| Package | TO-92 | Defines mechanical mounting, pinout and footprint compatibility. |
For TO-92 LM35 sensor sourcing, compare LM35DZ/NOPB (0°C to +100°C specified operating temperature) against this LM35CAZ/NOPB (−40°C to +110°C). The exact grade and temperature limits matter even when both ordering options use a TO-92 package; verify accuracy requirements separately.
