GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex Plainview PCS5035 contains "Five Monolithic" precision current sources designed for
thermistor current monitor and resistive sensor applications. The precision current source
(80µA ±2µA)/Comparator inputs are compared to an external reference of 0VDC to 3VDC. A precision internal
2.0VDC reference is provided if an external reference is not available. See Figure 1.
The comparator outputs of two (2) PCS5035 can be wired or’ed to provide 10 sensors inputs. Current source
output/comparator inputs of two or more units can be tied together to provide more sensor current. A logic
"high" of 3.4VDC maximum on the enable pin turns on the current source/comparators. Any unused current
source output/comparator inputs can be left open circuit without affecting other I/O’s.

One primary application for the Aeroflex PCS5035, as shown in Figure 3 below, would be to monitor the
temperature of different electronic bay areas in a Satellite, and report when any bay area has exceeded a
maximum temperature limit.
Thermistors with defined temperature characteristics are used as the sensors, and by providing a constant
stable current to the external Thermistor (Temp T1 to Temp T5), an accurate analog voltage of a specified
temperature trip point can be established. The comparator voltage reference input can be tailored to set the
trip point for the characteristic of the particular thermistor sensor used. The on-board precision 2V reference
can be used directly for voltages of 2 volts or less, or can be scaled with an external operational amplifier to
provide a voltage between 2 volts and the maximum input of 3.1V. Various temperature trip points could be
accomplished by using thermistors with different temperature characteristics.

Another application for the Aeroflex PCS5035 device is to provide precision excitation sources and
threshold detection for five temperature sensors. The temperature sensors are typically thermistors, but can
also be RTDs or silicon diodes. Since these devices have negative temperature coefficients, the device
resistance is inversely related to the temperature. A typical application is shown below. The PCS5035
contains five independent current sources, internally trimmed to 80 uA (+ 2µA) each. The PCS5035 also
contains an internal precision bandgap voltage reference, set to 2.000 Volts (+ 0.010Volts). Five complete
temperature monitor circuits can be obtained by connecting external thermistors as shown below. The
threshold is reached when the temperature of the thermistor produces a resistance of exactly 25K
(2.00V/80uA). If the temperature is low, the sensor voltage is greater than 2.000 Volts and the comparator
output is high; when the temperature is high, the comparator output goes low. The comparator output
configurations are open-collector, with internal 10K pullup resistors. This allows the comparator outputs to
be wire-ORed.
To set the thresholds at other temperatures, several options are available: Other thermistor types may be
selected; shunt resistors may be used to adjust the sensor response; an external reference voltage may be
used.

When more "Temperature Sensing" inputs are needed two PCS5035 hybrids can be used as shown below
in Figure 4.
The outputs of the two PCS5035 hybrids can be wired together to produce a wired “OR” function. Each bank
of 5 inputs can then be separately controlled by its associated Enable input.
One application of this multiple input arrangement could be circuit board temperature monitoring using the
temperature characteristics of a PN (diode) junction. With a constant current to the diode sensor the diode
voltage can be a calibrated function of temperature. Diodes can be placed on or near vital electronic
components to monitor their case temperatures so that they can be shut down before a catastrophic
temperature failure occurs.
