ams? temperature sensors deliver accuracy and low power consumption in a wafer level package

The AS621x temperature sensors allow ams’ customers to integrate the 1.5mm2 Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP) into their designs. The device includes  industry-standard serial interface with eight I²C addresses and a factory-calibrated sensor, meaning that the AS621x can be used in applications ranging from industrial process control solutions, Internet-of-Things applications such as cold-chain monitoring, medical data acquisition through to battery-powered mobile and wearable devices. 

The AS621x family of temperature sensors comes in three accuracy versions: ±0.2°C for the AS6212; ±0.4°C for the AS6214; and ±0.8°C for the AS6218. The sensors allow the integration of the temperature sensor into a system. 

The AS621x temperature sensor family is now available in production volumes. Unit pricing starts at EUR 0.62 in order quantities of 1,000. An evaluation board is available.
