Electronics Power Supply / Management crystal power SensorMICRO CRYSTAL RV-3032-C7 Temperature Sensor Module offers on-chip 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) providing a temperature resolution of 0.0625°C with an ultra-low current consumption of 160nA and I2C interface. The high-performance ultra-compact module features a custom IC with embedded temperature sensor, RTC functions and integrated quartz crystal resonator, sets new standards in low power, small size, and unique power management capabilities. Device is suitable for applications requiring always-on temperature monitoring, limits crossing detection and timekeeping functions, with compliance to stringent clock accuracy over time. Its wide temperature operating range (-40 to +105°C), and long battery life are particularly necessary when monitoring cold chains.
