MAX6674ISA+

General Description
The MAX6674 cold-junction-compensation thermocou-
ple-to-digital converter performs cold-junction compen-
sation and digitizes the signal from a type-K
thermocouple. The data is output in a 10-bit resolution,
SPI™-compatible, read-only format.
This converter resolves temperatures to 0.125°C, allows
readings as high as +128°C, and exhibits thermocouple
accuracy of ±2°C for temperatures ranging from 0°C to
+125°C.
The MAX6674 is available in a small, 8-pin SO package.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
