High Precision Temperature Sensor - TMP117 (Qwiic)

The TMP117AIDRVT is an ultra-precise temperature sensor with an I2C interface. It offers high precision temperature readings of +/- 0.1°C from -20°C to +50°C without calibration, and has a maximum range of -55°C to 150°C. With very low power consumption, it reduces the impact of self-heating on measurement accuracy. It operates on a voltage from 1.8V to 5.5V. This sensor comes with programmable temperature limits and digital offset for system correction. It's medical grade, meeting ASTM E1112 and ISO 80601-2-56 with NIST traceability. Compared to the TMP102, the TMP117 is more precise with a 16-bit resolution of .0078°C. SparkFun has an Arduino library to help you start quickly. You can download it via the Arduino library manager by searching 'SparkFun TMP117' or get the GitHub repo as a .zip file. This is a Qwiic compatible board, just plug and play, no soldering or voltage regulation needed. SparkX products are not regularly produced, so grab them fast! Note that these are experimental products, tested but without guarantees and no live technical support. Visit SparkFun's forum for help.

Using the TMP117 temperature sensor is easy. First, if you're using an Arduino, you can quickly get started by downloading the SparkFun TMP117 library through the Arduino library manager or from the GitHub repo. Once the library is installed, you're ready to go. This is a Qwiic compatible board, so you just plug it in - no need to worry about soldering, figuring out SDA or SCL, or voltage regulation. When it comes to the sensor's temperature measurement, it gives you accurate readings in a wide range from -20°C to +50°C without calibration. Just keep in mind that the sensor has a maximum range of -55°C to 150°C. As for maintenance, since it has low power consumption, there's not much to worry about. But be careful not to expose it to extreme conditions outside its specified range. Also, remember that this is an experimental SparkX product. It's been tested, but there are no guarantees.
