Typical Application (continued)

8.2.3 Application Curve

Figure 14 shows the step response of the TMP100 and TMP101 devices to a submersion in an oil bath of 100ºC

from room temperature (27ºC). The time constant, or the time for the output to reach 63% of the input step, is

0.9 s. The time-constant result depends on the PCB that the TMP100 and TMP101 devices are mounted. For

this test, the TMP100 and TMP101 devices are soldered to a two-layer PCB that measures 0.375 inch × 0.437

inch.
