SparkFun High Precision Temperature Sensor - TMP117 (Qwiic)

The SparkFun Qwiic TMP117 breakout is a high precision temperature sensor that boasts an I²C interface. It provides temperature readings with a high precision of ±0.1°C across a temperature range of -20°C to +50°C without needing calibration. This sensor also has a maximum range from -55°C to 150°C. It is designed to be power-efficient, reducing the impact of self-heating on measurement accuracy. The Qwiic system makes it easy to connect to your system without the need for soldering, but 2.54mm-spaced pins are also available for those who prefer using a breadboard.

The SparkFun High Precision Temperature Sensor also features programmable temperature limits and a digital offset for system correction. It outperforms the TMP102 with its ability to read temperatures to a resolution of 0.0078°C with a 16-bit resolution, making it more precise and accurate up to 0.5°C.

This breakout is designed to be user-friendly. SparkFun has written an Arduino library to help you get started quickly and efficiently. It is part of the SparkFun Qwiic Connect System, an ecosystem of I²C sensors, actuators, shields, and cables designed to make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This system reduces the amount of required PCB space and prevents incorrect connections with its polarized connections.

The TMP117 High Precision Temperature Sensor can also be automatically detected, scanned, configured, and logged using the OpenLog Artemis datalogger system. This feature eliminates the need for programming, soldering, or setup.

The SparkFun High Precision TMP117 Hookup Guide is available to help you get started with this product.
