Datasheet STS21 Temperature Sensor IC Fully calibrated Digital output, I2C interface Low power consumption Excellent long term stability DFN type package - reflow solderable Product Summary STS21, the new temperature sensor of Sensirion is about to set new standards in terms of size and intelligence: Embedded in a reflow solderable Dual Flat No leads (DFN) package of 3 x 3mm foot print and 1.1mm height it provides calibrated, linearized signals in digital, I2C format. Using the same CMOSens(R) technology as Sensirions successful and industry proven SHT2x humidity and temperature sensors, the STS21 offers superior performance and reliability. The 0.2C temperature specification allows for implementation of the STS21 in applications with high demands on temperature accuracy. Dimensions Every sensor is individually calibrated and tested. Lot identification is printed on the sensor and an electronic identification code is stored on the chip - which can be read out by command. Furthermore, the resolution of STS21 can be changed by command (11bit up to 14bit), low battery can be detected and a checksum helps to improve communication reliability. With made improvements and the miniaturization of the sensor the performance-to-price ratio has been improved - and eventually, any device should benefit from the cutting edge energy saving operation mode. Sensor Chip 3.0 STS21 features a generation 4C CMOSens(R) chip. Besides the band gap temperature sensor, the chip contains an amplifier, A/D converter, OTP memory and a digital processing unit. 2.0 typ 1.4 typ 3.0 STS21 D0AC4 0.3 typ 0.8 typ Material Contents 1.1 2.2 0.2 0.3 NC VDD SCL 0.75 0.4 Bottom View While the sensor itself is made of Silicon the sensors housing consists of a plated Cu lead-frame and green epoxy-based mold compound.

Inward corners may be rounded to match the I/O pad shape. The I/O land width should match the DFN-package I/O-pads width 1:1 and the land for the die pad should match 1:1 with the DFN package - see Figure 5. 20 40 60 80 100 120 Temperature (C) Figure 3 Typical dependency of supply current (sleep mode) versus temperature at VDD = 3.0V. Please note that the variance of these data can be above 25% of displayed value. 20 18 16 The solder mask6 design for the land pattern preferably is of type Non-Solder Mask Defined (NSMD) with solder mask openings larger than metal pads. For NSMD pads, the solder mask opening should be about 120m to 150m larger than the pad size, providing a 60m to 75m design clearance between the copper pad and solder mask. Rounded portions of package pads should have a matching rounded solder mask-opening shape to minimize the risk of solder bridging. For the actual pad dimensions, each pad on the PCB should have its own solder mask opening with a web of solder mask between adjacent pads. 0.4 14 0.3 12 0.7 10 0.2 0 Supply Current IDD (nA) 2.1 Soldering Instructions The DFN's die pad (centre pad) and perimeter I/O pads are fabricated from a planar copper lead-frame by overmolding leaving the die pad and I/O pads exposed for mechanical and electrical connection. Both the I/O pads and die pad should be soldered to the PCB. In order to prevent oxidation and optimize soldering, the bottom side of the sensor pads is plated with Ni/Pd/Au. 0.4 Supply Current IDD (A) 1.1 Electrical Specification Current consumption as given in Table 1 is dependent on temperature and supply voltage VDD.

Values in mm. Die pad (centre pad) may be left floating or be connected to ground, NC pads shall be left floating. The outer dotted line represents the outer dimension of the DFN package. For solder paste printing a laser-cut, stainless steel stencil with electro-polished trapezoidal walls and with 0.125mm stencil thickness is recommended. For the I/O pads the stencil apertures should be 0.1mm longer than PCB pads and positioned with 0.1mm offset away from the centre of 5 The land pattern is understood to be the metal layer on the PCB, onto which the DFN pads are soldered to. 6 The solder mask is understood to be the insulating layer on top of the PCB covering the connecting lines. www.sensirion.com Version 2 - December 2011 3/12 Datasheet STS21 the package. The die pad aperture should cover about 70 - 90% of the pad area - say up to 1.4mm x 2.3mm centered on the thermal land area. It can also be split in two openings. Due to the low mounted height of the DFN, "no clean" type 3 solder paste7 is recommended as well as Nitrogen purge during reflow. Temperature TP Furthermore, there are self-heating effects in case the measurement frequency is too high. To keep self heating below 0.1C, STS21 should not be active for more than 10% of the time - e.g. maximum two measurements per second at 14bit accuracy shall be made. tP TL tL TS (max) preheating critical zone Figure 7 Top view of example of mounted STS21 with slits milled into PCB to minimize heat transfer. Time Figure 6 Soldering profile according to JEDEC standard. TP <= 260C and tP < 30sec for Pb-free assembly. TL < 220C and tL < 150sec. Ramp-up/down speeds shall be < 5C/sec. It is important to note that the diced edge or side faces of the I/O pads may oxidise over time, therefore a solder fillet may or may not form. Hence there is no guarantee for solder joint fillet heights of any kind. For soldering STS21, standard reflow soldering ovens may be used. The sensor is qualified to withstand soldering profile according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 with peak temperatures at 260C during up to 30sec for Pb-free assembly in IR/Convection reflow ovens (see Figure 6). For manual soldering contact time must be limited to 5 seconds at up to 350C. 2.2 Storage Conditions and Handling Instructions Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is 1, according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. At the same time, it is recommended to further process the sensors within 1 year after date of delivery. During storage, temperature shall be in the range of 10C - 50C. 2.3 Temperature Effects If the sensor shares a PCB with electronic components that produce heat it should be mounted in a way that prevents heat transfer or keeps it as low as possible. Measures to reduce heat transfer can be ventilation, reduction of copper layers between the sensor and the rest of the PCB or milling a slit into the PCB around the sensor - see Figure 7. 7 Solder types are related to the solder particle size in the paste: Type 3 covers the size range of 25 - 45 m (powder type 42). www.sensirion.com 2.4 Light The STS21 is not light sensitive. Prolonged direct exposure to sunshine or strong UV radiation may age the sensor. 2.5 Wiring Considerations and Signal Integrity Carrying the SCL and SDA signal parallel and in close proximity (e.g. in wires) for more than 10cm may result in cross talk and loss of communication. This may be resolved by routing VDD and/or VSS between the two SDA signals and/or using shielded cables. Furthermore, slowing down SCL frequency will possibly improve signal integrity. Power supply pins (VDD, VSS) must be decoupled with a 100nF capacitor - see next Section. 3 Interface Specifications Pin Name Comment 1 SDA Serial Data, bidirectional 4 2 VSS Ground 5 5 VDD Supply Voltage 6 SCL Serial Clock, bidirectional 6 3,4 NC Not Connected 3 2 1 Table 2 STS21 pin assignment, NC remain floating (top view) 3.1 Power Pins (VDD, VSS) The supply voltage of STS21 must be in the range of 2.1 - 3.6V, recommended supply voltage is 3.0V. Power supply pins Supply Voltage (VDD) and Ground (VSS) must be decoupled with a 100nF capacitor, that shall be placed as close to the sensor as possible - see Figure 8. 3.2 Serial clock (SCL) SCL is used to synchronize the communication between microcontroller (MCU) and the sensor. Since the interface Version 2 - December 2011 4/12 Datasheet STS21 consists of fully static logic there is no minimum SCL frequency. 3.3 Serial SDA (SDA) The SDA pin is used to transfer data in and out of the sensor. For sending a command to the sensor, SDA is valid on the rising edge of SCL and must remain stable while SCL is high. After the falling edge of SCL the SDA value may be changed. For safe communication SDA shall be valid tSU and tHD before the rising and after the falling edge of SCL, respectively - see Figure 9. For reading data from the sensor, SDA is valid tVD after SCL has gone low and remains valid until the next falling edge of SCL.

To avoid signal contention the micro-controller unit (MCU) must only drive SDA and SCL low. External pull-up resistors (e.g. 10k), are required to pull the signal high. For the choice of resistor size please take bus capacity requirements into account (compare Table 5). It should be noted that pull-up resistors may be included in I/O circuits of MCUs.

For further information regarding timing, please refer to http://www.standardics.nxp.com/support/i2c/. 5 Communication with Sensor STS21 communicates with I2C protocol. For information on I2C beyond the information in the following Sections please refer to the following website: http://www.standardics.nxp.com/support/i2c/. Please note that all sensors are set to the same I2C address, as defined in Section 5.3. 8 Furthermore, please note, that Sensirion provides an exemplary sample code for SHT21 sensors on its home page - compare www.sensirion.com/SHT21. This sample code can be used for STS21 sensors with minor adjustments (I2C address, no RH measurement). 5.1 Start Up Sensor As a first step, the sensor is powered up to the chosen supply voltage VDD (between 2.1V and 3.6V). After power-up, the sensor needs at most 15ms, while SCL is high, for reaching idle state, i.e. to be ready accepting commands from the master (MCU). Current consumption during start up is 350A maximum. Whenever the sensor is powered up, but not performing a measurement or communicating, it is automatically in sleep mode (idle state). 5.2 Start / Stop Sequence Each transmission sequence begins with Start condition (S) and ends with Stop condition (P) as displayed in Figure 10 and Figure 11. 8 For sensors with alternative I2C address please contact Sensirion via info@sensirion.com. www.sensirion.com 70% SCL 30% 70% SDA 30% Figure 10 Transmission Start condition (S) - a high to low transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The Start condition is a unique state on the bus created by the master, indicating to the slaves the beginning of a transmission sequence (bus is considered busy after a Start). 70% SCL 30% 70% SDA 30% Figure 11 Transmission Stop condition (P) - a low to high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The Stop condition is a unique state on the bus created by the master, indicating to the slaves the end of a transmission sequence (bus is considered free after a Stop). 5.3 Sending a Command After sending the Start condition, the subsequent I2C header consists of the 7-bit I2C device address 1001010 and an SDA direction bit (Read R: 1, Write W: 0). The sensor indicates the proper reception of a byte by pulling the SDA pin low (ACK bit) after the falling edge of the 8th SCL clock. After the issue of a measurement command, the MCU must wait for the measurement to complete. The basic commands are summarized in Table 6. Hold master or no hold master modes are explained in the next Section.

In the first case the SCL line is blocked (controlled by sensor) during measurement process while in the latter case the SCL line remains open for other communication while the sensor is processing the measurement. No hold master mode allows for processing other I2C communication tasks on a bus while the sensor is measuring. A communication sequence of the two modes is displayed in Figure 12 and Figure 13, respectively.

Bit 45 may be changed to NACK followed by Stop condition (P) to omit checksum transmission. In no hold master mode, the MCU has to poll for the termination of the internal processing of the sensor. This is done by sending a Start condition followed by the I2C header (10010101) as shown in Figure 13. If the internal processing is finished, the sensor acknowledges the poll of the MCU and data can be read by the MCU. If the measurement processing is not finished the sensor answers no ACK bit and the Start condition plus header byte must be issued once more. For both modes, since the maximum resolution of a measurement is 14 bit, the two least significant bits (LSBs, bits 43 and 44) are used for transmitting status information. Bit 1 of the two LSBs indicates the measurement type (0: temperature). Bit 0 is currently not assigned. In the examples given in Figure 12 and Figure 13 the sensor output is ST = 0110001101010000. For the calculation of physical values Status Bits must be set to 0 - see Chapter 6. The maximum duration for measurements depends on the type of measurement and resolution chosen - values are displayed in Table 7. Maximum values shall be chosen for the communication planning of the MCU.

Upon reception of this command, the sensor system reinitializes and starts operation according to the default settings - with the exception of the heater bit in the user register (see Sect. 5.6).

Still, any sequence with adjacent Start condition may alternatively be closed with a Stop condition. ACK In the hold master mode, the STS21 pulls down the SCL line while measuring to force the master into a wait state. By releasing the SCL line the sensor indicates that internal processing is terminated and that transmission may be continued.

Thereafter, the full User Register string is composed of respective default values of reserved bits and the remainder of accessible bits optionally with default or non-default values. Figure 15 Read and write register sequence - grey blocks are controlled by STS21. In this example, the resolution is set to 12bit. 6 Conversion of Signal Output Default resolution is set to 14 bit temperature reading. Measured data are transferred in two byte packages, i.e. in frames of 8 bit length where the most significant bit (MSB) is transferred first (left aligned). Each byte is followed by an acknowledge bit. The two status bits, the last bits of LSB, must be set to 0 before calculating physical values. In the example of Figure 12 and Figure 13, the transferred 16 bit temperature data is 0110001101010000 = 25424. 6.1 Temperature Conversion The temperature T is calculated by inserting temperature signal output ST into the following formula (result in C), no matter which resolution is chosen: T 46.85 175.72 ST 216 7 Environmental Stability The SHT2x sensor series were tested based on AECQ100 Rev.
