PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
are available at the package pins so that the circuit can be  
recalibrated for the thermocouple types by the addition of two  
or three resistors. These terminals also allow more precise cali-  
bration for both thermocouple and thermometer applications.  
The AD594/AD595 is a complete instrumentation amplifier and  
thermocouple cold junction compensator on a monolithic chip.  
It combines an ice point reference with a precalibrated amplifier  
to produce a high level (10 mV/°C) output directly from a ther-  
mocouple signal. Pin-strapping options allow it to be used as a  
linear amplifier-compensator or as a switched output setpoint  
controller using either fixed or remote setpoint control. It can  
be used to amplify its compensation voltage directly, thereby  
converting it to a stand-alone Celsius transducer with a low  
impedance voltage output.  
The AD594/AD595 is available in two performance grades. The  
C and the A versions have calibration accuracies of ±1°C and  
±3°C, respectively. Both are designed to be used from 0°C to  
+50°C, and are available in 14-pin, hermetically sealed, side-  
brazed ceramic DIPs as well as low cost cerdip packages.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
The AD594/AD595 includes a thermocouple failure alarm that  
indicates if one or both thermocouple leads become open. The  
alarm output has a flexible format which includes TTL drive  
capability.  
1. The AD594/AD595 provides cold junction compensation,  
amplification, and an output buffer in a single IC package.  
2. Compensation, zero, and scale factor are all precalibrated by  
laser wafer trimming (LWT) of each IC chip.  
The AD594/AD595 can be powered from a single ended supply  
(including +5 V) and by including a negative supply, tempera-  
tures below 0°C can be measured. To minimize self-heating, an  
unloaded AD594/AD595 will typically operate with a total sup-  
ply current 160 µA, but is also capable of delivering in excess of  
±5 mA to a load.  
3. Flexible pinout provides for operation as a setpoint control-  
ler or a stand-alone temperature transducer calibrated in  
degrees Celsius.  
4. Operation at remote application sites is facilitated by low  
quiescent current and a wide supply voltage range +5 V to  
dual supplies spanning 30 V.  
The AD594 is precalibrated by laser wafer trimming to match  
the characteristic of type J (iron-constantan) thermocouples and  
the AD595 is laser trimmed for type K (chromel-alumel) inputs.  
The temperature transducer voltages and gain control resistors  
5. Differential input rejects common-mode noise voltage on the  
thermocouple leads.

NOTES  
1Calibrated for minimum error at +25°C using a thermocouple sensitivity of 51.7 µV/°C. Since a J type thermocouple deviates from this straight line approximation, the AD594 will normally  
read 3.1 mV when the measuring junction is at 0°C. The AD595 will similarly read 2.7 mV at 0°C.  
2Defined as the slope of the line connecting the AD594/AD595 errors measured at 0°C and 50°C ambient temperature.  
3Pin 8 shorted to Pin 9.  
4Current Sink Capability in single supply configuration is limited to current drawn to ground through a 50 kresistor at output voltages below 2.5 V.  
5–VS must not exceed –16.5 V.  
Specifications shown in boldface are tested on all production units at final electrical test. Results from those tests are used to calculate outgoing quality levels. All min and max specifications  
are guaranteed, although only those shown in boldface are tested on all production units.  
Specifications subject to change without notice.  
compensated signal, the following transfer functions should be  
used to determine the actual output voltages:  
AD594 output = (Type J Voltage + 16 µV) × 193.4  
AD595 output = (Type K Voltage + 11 µV) × 247.3 or conversely:  
Type J voltage = (AD594 output/193.4) – 16 µV  
INTERPRETING AD594/AD595 OUTPUT VOLTAGES  
To achieve a temperature proportional output of 10 mV/°C and  
accurately compensate for the reference junction over the rated  
operating range of the circuit, the AD594/AD595 is gain trimmed  
to match the transfer characteristic of J and K type thermocouples  
at 25°C. For a type J output in this temperature range the TC is  
51.70 µV/°C, while for a type K it is 40.44 µV/°C. The resulting  
gain for the AD594 is 193.4 (10 mV/°C divided by 51.7 µV/°C)  
and for the AD595 is 247.3 (10 mV/°C divided by 40.44 µV/°C).  
In addition, an absolute accuracy trim induces an input offset to  
the output amplifier characteristic of 16 µV for the AD594 and  
11 µV for the AD595. This offset arises because the AD594/  
AD595 is trimmed for a 250 mV output while applying a 25°C  
thermocouple input.  
Type K voltage = (AD595 output/247.3) – 11 µV  
Table I lists the ideal AD594/AD595 output voltages as a func-  
tion of Celsius temperature for type J and K ANSI standard  
thermocouples, with the package and reference junction at  
25°C. As is normally the case, these outputs are subject to cali-  
bration, gain and temperature sensitivity errors. Output values  
for intermediate temperatures can be interpolated, or calculated  
using the output equations and ANSI thermocouple voltage  
tables referred to zero degrees Celsius. Due to a slight variation  
Because a thermocouple output voltage is nonlinear with respect  
to temperature, and the AD594/AD595 linearly amplifies the  
in alloy content between ANSI type J and DIN FE-CUNI

SINGLE AND DUAL SUPPLY CONNECTIONS  
The AD594/AD595 is a completely self-contained thermocouple  
conditioner. Using a single +5 V supply the interconnections  
shown in Figure 1 will provide a direct output from a type J  
thermocouple (AD594) or type K thermocouple (AD595) mea-  
suring from 0°C to +300°C.

Any convenient supply voltage from +5 V to +30 V may be  
used, with self-heating errors being minimized at lower supply  
levels. In the single supply configuration the +5 V supply con-  
nects to Pin 11 with the V– connection at Pin 7 strapped to  
power and signal common at Pin 4. The thermocouple wire in-  
puts connect to Pins 1 and 14 either directly from the measuring  
point or through intervening connections of similar thermo-  
couple wire type. When the alarm output at Pin 13 is not used it  
should be connected to common or –V. The precalibrated feed-  
back network at Pin 8 is tied to the output at Pin 9 to provide a  
10 mV/°C nominal temperature transfer characteristic.

Common-mode voltages on the thermocouple inputs must remain  
within the common-mode range of the AD594/AD595, with a  
return path provided for the bias currents. If the thermocouple  
is not remotely grounded, then the dotted line connections in

THERMOCOUPLE CONNECTIONS  
In normal operation the main amplifier output, at Pin 9, is con-  
nected to the feedback network, at Pin 8. Thermocouple signals  
applied to the floating input stage, at Pins 1 and 14, are ampli-  
fied by gain G of the differential amplifier and are then further  
amplified by gain A in the main amplifier. The output of the  
main amplifier is fed back to a second differential stage in an in-  
verting connection. The feedback signal is amplified by this  
stage and is also applied to the main amplifier input through a  
summing circuit. Because of the inversion, the amplifier causes  
the feedback to be driven to reduce this difference signal to a  
small value. The two differential amplifiers are made to match  
and have identical gains, G. As a result, the feedback signal that  
must be applied to the right-hand differential amplifier will pre-  
cisely match the thermocouple input signal when the difference  
signal has been reduced to zero. The feedback network is trim-  
med so that the effective gain to the output, at Pins 8 and 9, re-  
sults in a voltage of 10 mV/°C of thermocouple excitation.  
The isothermal terminating connections of a pair of thermo-  
couple wires forms an effective reference junction. This junction  
must be kept at the same temperature as the AD594/AD595 for  
the internal cold junction compensation to be effective.  
A method that provides for thermal equilibrium is the printed  
circuit board connection layout illustrated in Figure 3.

In addition to the feedback signal, a cold junction compensation  
voltage is applied to the right-hand differential amplifier. The  
compensation is a differential voltage proportional to the Celsius  
temperature of the AD594/AD595. This signal disturbs the dif-  
ferential input so that the amplifier output must adjust to restore  
the input to equal the applied thermocouple voltage.  
COMP

The compensation is applied through the gain scaling resistors  
so that its effect on the main output is also 10 mV/°C. As a  
result, the compensation voltage adds to the effect of the ther-  
mocouple voltage a signal directly proportional to the difference  
between 0°C and the AD594/AD595 temperature. If the thermo-  
couple reference junction is maintained at the AD594/AD595  
temperature, the output of the AD594/AD595 will correspond  
to the reading that would have been obtained from amplification  
of a signal from a thermocouple referenced to an ice bath.

Here the AD594/AD595 package temperature and circuit board  
are thermally contacted in the copper printed circuit board  
tracks under Pins 1 and 14. The reference junction is now com-  
posed of a copper-constantan (or copper-alumel) connection  
and copper-iron (or copper-chromel) connection, both of which  
are at the same temperature as the AD594/AD595.

AD594/AD595  
The AD594/AD595 also includes an input open circuit detector  
that switches on an alarm transistor. This transistor is actually a  
current-limited output buffer, but can be used up to the limit as  
a switch transistor for either pull-up or pull-down operation of  
external alarms.  
this terminal can be produced with a resistor between –C and  
–T to balance an increase in +T, or a resistor from –T to COM  
to offset a decrease in +T.  
If the compensation is adjusted substantially to accommodate a  
different thermocouple type, its effect on the final output volt-  
age will increase or decrease in proportion. To restore the  
nominal output to 10 mV/°C the gain may be adjusted to match  
the new compensation and thermocouple input characteristics.  
When reducing the compensation the resistance between –T  
and COM automatically increases the gain to within 0.5% of the  
correct value. If a smaller gain is required, however, the nominal  
47 kinternal feedback resistor can be paralleled or replaced  
with an external resistor.  
The ice point compensation network has voltages available with  
positive and negative temperature coefficients. These voltages  
may be used with external resistors to modify the ice point com-  
pensation and recalibrate the AD594/AD595 as described in the  
next column.  
The feedback resistor is separately pinned out so that its value  
can be padded with a series resistor, or replaced with an external  
resistor between Pins 5 and 9. External availability of the feedback  
resistor allows gain to be adjusted, and also permits the AD594/  
AD595 to operate in a switching mode for setpoint operation.  
Fine calibration adjustments will require temperature response  
measurements of individual devices to assure accuracy. Major  
reconfigurations for other thermocouple types can be achieved  
without seriously compromising initial calibration accuracy, so  
long as the procedure is done at a fixed temperature using the  
factory calibration as a reference. It should be noted that inter-  
mediate recalibration conditions may require the use of a  
negative supply.  
CAUTIONS:  
The temperature compensation terminals (+C and –C) at Pins 2  
and 6 are provided to supply small calibration currents only. The  
AD594/AD595 may be permanently damaged if they are  
grounded or connected to a low impedance.  
The AD594/AD595 is internally frequency compensated for feed-  
back ratios (corresponding to normal signal gain) of 75 or more.  
If a lower gain is desired, additional frequency compensation  
should be added in the form of a 300 pF capacitor from Pin 10  
to the output at Pin 9. As shown in Figure 5 an additional 0.01 µF  
capacitor between Pins 10 and 11 is recommended.  
EXAMPLE: TYPE E RECALIBRATION—AD594/AD595  
Both the AD594 and AD595 can be configured to condition the  
output of a type E (chromel-constantan) thermocouple. Tem-  
perature characteristics of type E thermocouples differ less from  
type J, than from type K, therefore the AD594 is preferred for  
recalibration.  
While maintaining the device at a constant temperature follow  
the recalibration steps given here. First, measure the device  
temperature by tying both inputs to common (or a selected  
common-mode potential) and connecting FB to VO. The AD594  
is now in the stand alone Celsius thermometer mode. For this  
example assume the ambient is 24°C and the initial output VO  
is 240 mV. Check the output at VO to verify that it corresponds  
to the temperature of the device.

RECALIBRATION PRINCIPLES AND LIMITATIONS  
The ice point compensation network of the AD594/AD595  
produces a differential signal which is zero at 0°C and corre-  
sponds to the output of an ice referenced thermocouple at the  
temperature of the chip. The positive TC output of the circuit is  
proportional to Kelvin temperature and appears as a voltage at  
+T. It is possible to decrease this signal by loading it with a  
resistor from +T to COM, or increase it with a pull-up resistor  
from +T to the larger positive TC voltage at +C. Note that  
adjustments to +T should be made by measuring the voltage which  
tracks it at –T. To avoid destabilizing the feedback amplifier the  
measuring instrument should be isolated by a few thousand  
ohms in series with the lead connected to –T.  
Next, measure the voltage –T at Pin 5 with a high impedance  
DVM (capacitance should be isolated by a few thousand ohms  
of resistance at the measured terminals). At 24°C the –T voltage  
will be about 8.3 mV. To adjust the compensation of an AD594  
to a type E thermocouple a resistor, R1, should be connected  
between +T and +C, Pins 2 and 3, to raise the voltage at –T by  
the ratio of thermocouple sensitivities. The ratio for converting a  
type J device to a type E characteristic is:  
r (AD594) =(60.9 µV/°C)/(51.7 µV/°C)= 1.18  
Thus, multiply the initial voltage measured at –T by r and ex-  
perimentally determine the R1 value required to raise –T to that  
level. For the example the new –T voltage should be about 9.8 mV.  
The resistance value should be approximately 1.8 k.

The zero differential point must now be shifted back to 0°C.  
This is accomplished by multiplying the original output voltage  
VO by r and adjusting the measured output voltage to this value  
by experimentally adding a resistor, R2, between –C and –T,  
Pins 5 and 6. The target output value in this case should be  
about 283 mV. The resistance value of R2 should be approxi-  
mately 240 k.

tive input of the feedback amplifier, the –T pin. A current into  
Finally, the gain must be recalibrated such that the output VO  
indicates the device’s temperature once again. Do this by adding  
a third resistor, R3, between FB and –T, Pins 8 and 5. VO should  
now be back to the initial 240 mV reading. The resistance value

of R3 should be approximately 280 k. The final connection  
diagram is shown in Figure 7. An approximate verification of  
the effectiveness of recalibration is to measure the differential  
gain to the output. For type E it should be 164.2.  
THERMAL ENVIRONMENT EFFECTS  
The inherent low power dissipation of the AD594/AD595 and  
the low thermal resistance of the package make self-heating  
errors almost negligible. For example, in still air the chip to am-  
bient thermal resistance is about 80°C/watt (for the D package).  
At the nominal dissipation of 800 µW the self-heating in free air  
is less than 0.065°C. Submerged in fluorinert liquid (unstirred)  
the thermal resistance is about 40°C/watt, resulting in a self-  
heating error of about 0.032°C.

Note that during this procedure it is crucial to maintain the

Figure 9. Setpoint Controller  
The thermocouple is used to sense the unknown temperature  
and provide a thermal EMF to the input of the AD594/AD595.  
The signal is cold junction compensated, amplified to 10 mV/°C  
and compared to an external setpoint voltage applied by the  
user to the feedback at Pin 8. Table I lists the correspondence  
between setpoint voltage and temperature, accounting for the  
nonlinearity of the measurement thermocouple. If the setpoint  
temperature range is within the operating range (–55°C to  
+125°C) of the AD594/AD595, the chip can be used as the  
transducer for the circuit by shorting the inputs together and  
utilizing the nominal calibration of 10 mV/°C. This is the centi-  
grade thermometer configuration as shown in Figure 13.  
USING TYPE T THERMOCOUPLES WITH THE AD595  
Because of the similarity of thermal EMFs in the 0°C to +50°C  
range between type K and type T thermocouples, the AD595  
can be directly used with both types of inputs. Within this ambi-  
ent temperature range the AD595 should exhibit no more than  
an additional 0.2°C output calibration error when used with  
type T inputs. The error arises because the ice point compensa-  
tor is trimmed to type K characteristics at 25°C. To calculate  
the AD595 output values over the recommended –200°C to  
+350°C range for type T thermocouples, simply use the ANSI  
thermocouple voltages referred to 0°C and the output equation  
given on page 2 for the AD595. Because of the relatively large  
nonlinearities associated with type T thermocouples the output  
will deviate widely from the nominal 10 mV/°C. However, cold  
junction compensation over the rated 0°C to +50°C ambient  
will remain accurate.  
In operation if the setpoint voltage is above the voltage corre-  
sponding to the temperature being measured the output swings  
low to approximately zero volts. Conversely, when the tempera-  
ture rises above the setpoint voltage the output switches to  
the positive limit of about 4 volts with a +5 V supply. Figure  
9 shows the setpoint comparator configuration complete with a  
heater element driver circuit being controlled by the AD594/  
AD595 toggled output. Hysteresis can be introduced by inject-  
ing a current into the positive input of the feedback amplifier  
when the output is toggled high. With an AD594 about 200 nA  
into the +T terminal provides 1°C of hysteresis. When using a  
single 5 V supply with an AD594, a 20 Mresistor from VO to  
+T will supply the 200 nA of current when the output is forced  
high (about 4 V). To widen the hysteresis band decrease the  
resistance connected from VO to +T.  
STABILITY OVER TEMPERATURE  
Each AD594/AD595 is tested for error over temperature with  
the measuring thermocouple at 0°C. The combined effects of  
cold junction compensation error, amplifier offset drift and gain  
error determine the stability of the AD594/AD595 output over  
the rated ambient temperature range. Figure 8 shows an AD594/  
AD595 drift error envelope. The slope of this figure has units  
of °C/°C.

ALARM CIRCUIT  
The alarm can be used with both single and dual supplies. It  
can be operated above or below ground. The collector and emit-  
ter of the output transistor can be used in any normal switch  
configuration. As an example a negative referenced load can be  
driven from –ALM as shown in Figure 12.  
In all applications of the AD594/AD595 the –ALM connection,  
Pin 13, should be constrained so that it is not more positive  
than (V+) – 4 V. This can be most easily achieved by connect-  
ing Pin 13 to either common at Pin 4 or V– at Pin 7. For most  
applications that use the alarm signal, Pin 13 will be grounded  
and the signal will be taken from +ALM on Pin 12. A typical  
application is shown in Figure 10.

Pin 12 to go high. If one or both of the thermocouple leads are  
interrupted, the +ALM pin will be driven low. As shown in Fig-

conditions can be automatically avoided. A +IN to common

but may be omitted since the alarm output transistor is current  
limited at about 20 mA. The transistor, however, will operate in  
a high dissipation mode and the temperature of the circuit will  
rise well above ambient. Note that the cold junction compensa-  
tion will be affected whenever the alarm circuit is activated. The  
time required for the chip to return to ambient temperature will

of the measurement system, but it is carefully measured by some  
type of absolute thermometer. A measurement of the thermo-

temperature. Usual practice, however, is to use a convenient

Since the compensation is at the reference junction temperature,  
it is often convenient to form the reference “junction” by connect-

result.
