The MAX31875 has an enhanced LM75-compatible register set. The temperature data registers are compatible with most popular temperature sensors, which allow measurements up to about 125°C. An extended-range data format is available that allows the MAX31875 to produce temperature data up to 150°C. Temperature resolution values of 8, 9, 10, or 12 bits are selectable, with lower-resolution selections providing faster conversions and lower average supply currents. Conversion rates are also selectable. If desired, the MAX31875 may be operated in low-power shutdown mode, with “one-shot” conversions selected only when temperature data is needed.
