MAX30208 Digital Temperature Sensor

Maxim Integrated's MAX30208 digital temperature sensor delivers clinical-grade temperature measurement accuracy (±0.1°C) with fast response-time to changes in temperature. It also meets the power and size demands of small, battery-powered applications such as smartwatches and medical patches. It simplifies the design of battery-powered, temperature-sensing wearable healthcare applications. Easier to use than competitive offerings, it measures temperature at the top of the device and does not suffer from thermal self-heating like other sensors. MAX30208 is compatible with up to four I²C addresses to enable multiple sensors on the same IC bus. The MAX30208 can be attached to either a PCB or a flex-printed circuit (FPC).
