Temperature Switch Solutions


Temperature switches, also known as logic output temperature sensors, simplify designs that require over- and under-temperature detection with their flexible factory-set trip points and pin-selectable hysteresis. Our broad range of temperature switches is an excellent option for a number of applications including motor drives, Radio Frequency (RF) power amplifiers, power supplies and more.

  • Achieve autonomous temperature protection with selectable thresholds and hysteresis options with our portfolio of temperature switches
  • Choose a device that fits your programmability needs in space-saving small packages
  • Meet stringent design requirements with our qualified device temperature grade options in industrial and automotive Grade 1 offerings
