TTJ Temperature sensor

One of the implemented features for fleet management devices is 1-Wire data protocol, which enables connection of temperature sensors. It is a perfect accessory for temperature monitoring.

TTJ IS A SOLUTION FOR FLEET MANAGEMENT TRACKER IN FOLLOWING CASES:

1. Thermostatic controls – maintain temperature near a desired set point.
2. Thermally sensitive system – receive alerts when temperature enters or leaves pre-defined value.
3. Consumer products – be assured that goods which you are delivering will maintain high quality.
   
   

Description
The TTJ Temperature sensor provides 9-bit Celsius temperature measurements and has an alarm function with nonvolatile user-programmable upper and lower trigger points. The TTJ communicates over a 1-Wire bus that by definition requires only one data line (and ground) for communication with a central microprocessor. It has an operating temperature range of –55°C to +125°C and is accurate to ±0,5°C over the range of –10°C to +85°C. In addition, the TTJ can derive power directly from the data line (“parasite power”), eliminating the need for an external power supply. Each TTJ has a unique 64-bit serial code, which allows multiple TTJ sensors to function on the same 1-Wire bus. Thus, it is simple to use one microprocessor to control many TTJs distributed over a large area. Applications that can benefit from this feature include HVAC environmental controls, temperature monitoring systems inside buildings, equipment, or machinery, and process monitoring and control systems.
