PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ADM1021A is a two-channel digital thermometer and
undertemperature/overtemperature alarm, intended for use in
personal computers and other systems requiring thermal monitoring and management. The device can measure the temperature
of a microprocessor using a diode-connected PNP transistor, which
may be provided on-chip in the case of the Pentium® III or similar
processors, or can be a low-cost discrete NPN/PNP device such
as the 2N3904/2N3906. A novel measurement technique cancels
out the absolute value of the transistor’s base emitter voltage, so
that no calibration is required. The second measurement channel
measures the output of an on-chip temperature sensor, to monitor
the temperature of the device and its environment.
The ADM1021A communicates over a two-wire serial interface
compatible with SMBus standards. Undertemperature and
overtemperature limits can be programmed into the devices over
the serial bus, and an ALERT output signals when the on-chip
or remote temperature is out of range. This output can be used
as an interrupt, or as an SMBus alert.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM1021A contains a two-channel A-to-D converter with
special input-signal conditioning to enable operation with remote and
on-chip diode temperature sensors. When the ADM1021A is operating normally, the A-to-D converter operates in a free-running mode.
The analog input multiplexer alternately selects either the on-chip
temperature sensor to measure its local temperature, or the remote
temperature sensor. These signals are digitized by the ADC and
the results stored in the Local and Remote Temperature Value
Registers as 8-bit, twos complement words.
The measurement results are compared with local and remote,
high and low temperature limits, stored in four on-chip registers.
Out-of-limit comparisons generate flags that are stored in the
status register, and one or more out-of-limit results will cause
the ALERT output to pull low.
The limit registers can be programmed, and the device controlled and configured, via the serial System Management Bus.
The contents of any register can also be read back via the SMBus.
Control and configuration functions consist of:
•
Switching the device between normal operation and standby
mode.
•
•
Masking or enabling the ALERT output.

TPC 10. Response to Thermal Shock
On initial power-up, the remote and local temperature values
default to –128°C. Since the device normally powers up converting,
a measurement of local and remote temperature is made and these
values are then stored before a comparison with the stored limits
is made. However, if the part is powered up in standby mode
(STBY pin pulled low), no new values are written to the register
before a comparison is made. As a result, both RLOW and LLOW
are tripped in the Status Register, thus generating an ALERT output. This may be cleared in one of two ways:
1. Change both the local and remote lower limits to –128°C
and read the status register (which in turn clears the ALERT
output).
2. Take the part out of standby and read the status register
(which in turn clears the ALERT output). This will work only
if the measured values are within the limit values.
MEASUREMENT METHOD
A simple method of measuring temperature is to exploit the
negative temperature coefficient of a diode, or the base-emitter
voltage of a transistor, operated at constant current. Unfortunately, this technique requires calibration to null out the effect
of the absolute value of VBE, which varies from device to device.
Selecting the conversion rate.

Figure 2. Input Signal Conditioning
for the ADM1021. The main reason for this is to improve
the noise immunity of the part.
The technique used in the ADM1021A is to measure the change
in VBE when the device is operated at two different currents.
2. As a result of the greater Remote Sensor Source Current the
operating current of the ADM1021A is higher than that of
the ADM1021, typically 205 mA versus 160 mA.
This is given by:
∆VBE = KT/q × ln(N)
where:
3. The temperature measurement range of the ADM1021A is
0°C to 127°C, compared with –128°C to +127°C for the
ADM1021. As a result, the ADM1021 should be used if
negative temperature measurement is required.
K is Boltzmann’s constant,
q is charge on the electron (1.6 × 10–19 coulombs),
T is absolute temperature in kelvins,
4. The power-on reset values of the remote and local temperature values are –128°C in the ADM1021A as compared with
0°C in the ADM1021. As the part is powered up converting
(except when the part is in standby mode, i.e., Pin 15 is
pulled low) the part will measure the actual values of remote
and local temperature and write these to the registers.
N is ratio of the two currents.
Figure 2 shows the input signal conditioning used to measure the
output of an external temperature sensor. This figure shows the
external sensor as a substrate transistor, provided for temperature monitoring on some microprocessors, but it could equally
well be a discrete transistor. If a discrete transistor is used, the
collector will not be grounded and should be linked to the base.
To prevent ground noise interfering with the measurement, the
more negative terminal of the sensor is not referenced to ground,
but is biased above ground by an internal diode at the D– input.
If the sensor is operating in a noisy environment, C1 may optionally
be added as a noise filter. Its value is typically 2200 pF, but should
be no more than 3000 pF. See the section on layout considerations
for more information on C1.
5. The four MSBs of the Revision Register may be used to
identify the part. The ADM1021 Revision Register reads
0xh and the ADM1021A reads 3xh.
6. The power-on default value of the Address Pointer Register
is undefined in the ADM1021A and is equal to 00h in the
ADM1021. As a result, a value must be written to the Address
Pointer Register before a read is done in the ADM1021A.
The ADM1021 is capable of reading back local temperature
without writing to the Address Pointer Register as it defaulted
to the local temperature measurement register at power-up.
To measure ∆VBE, the sensor is switched between operating currents
of I and N × I. The resulting waveform is passed through a 65 kHz
low-pass filter to remove noise, then to a chopper-stabilized amplifier that performs the functions of amplification and rectification of
the waveform to produce a dc voltage proportional to ∆VBE. This
voltage is measured by the ADC to give a temperature output in
8-bit twos complement format. To reduce the effects of noise
further, digital filtering is performed by averaging the results of
16 measurement cycles.
7. Setting the mask bit (Bit 7 Config Reg) on the ADM1021A
will mask current and future ALERTs. On the ADM1021
the mask bit will only mask future ALERTs. Any current
ALERT will have to be cleared using an ARA.
TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
One LSB of the ADC corresponds to 1°C, so the ADC can theoretically measure from –128°C to +127°C, although the device
does not measure temperatures below 0°C so the actual range is
0°C to 127°C. The temperature data format is shown in Table I.
Signal conditioning and measurement of the internal temperature sensor is performed in a similar manner.
The results of the local and remote temperature measurements
are stored in the local and remote temperature value registers,
and are compared with limits programmed into the local and
remote high and low limit registers.
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ADM1021 AND THE
ADM1021A
Although the ADM1021A is pin-for-pin compatible with the
ADM1021, there are some differences between the two devices.
Below is a summary of these differences and reasons for the changes.
1. The ADM1021A forces a larger current through the remote
temperature sensing diode, typically 205 µA versus 90 µA

REGISTERS
The ADM1021A contains nine registers that are used to store
the results of remote and local temperature measurements,
high and low temperature limits, and to configure and control
the device. A description of these registers follows, and further
details are given in Tables II to IV. It should be noted that the
ADM1021A’s registers are dual port, and have different addresses
for read and write operations. Attempting to write to a read address,
or to read from a write address, will produce an invalid result.
Register addresses above 0Fh are reserved for future use or used
for factory test purposes and should not be written to.
Address Pointer Register
The Address Pointer Register itself does not have, nor does it
require, an address, as it is the register to which the first data
byte of every write operation is written automatically. This data
byte is an address pointer that sets up one of the other registers
for the second byte of the write operation, or for a subsequent
read operation.
Value Registers
The ADM1021A has two registers to store the results of local
and remote temperature measurements. These registers are
written to by the ADC and can only be read over the SMBus.
Status Register
Bit 7 of the Status Register indicates when it is high that the
ADC is busy converting. Bits 5 to 3 are flags that indicate the
results of the limit comparisons.
If the local and/or remote temperature measurement is above the
corresponding high temperature limit or below the corresponding
low temperature limit, then one or more of these flags will be set.
Bit 2 is a flag that is set if the remote temperature sensor is opencircuit. These five flags are NOR’d together, so that if any of them
is high, the ALERT interrupt latch will be set and the ALERT
output will go low. Reading the Status Register will clear the five
flag bits, provided the error conditions that caused the flags to be
set have gone away. While a limit comparator is tripped due to a
value register containing an out-of-limit measurement, or the sensor is open-circuit, the corresponding flag bit cannot be reset. A
flag bit can only be reset if the corresponding value register contains an in-limit measurement, or the sensor is good.

NOTES
1
Writing to address 0F causes the ADM1021A to perform a single measurement. It is not a data register as such and it does not matter what data is written to it.
2
These registers are reserved for future versions of the device.
REV. D

ADM1021A
The ALERT interrupt latch is not reset by reading the Status
Register, but will be reset when the ALERT output has been
serviced by the master reading the device address, provided the
error condition has gone away and the Status Register flag bits
have been reset.
One-Shot Register
The one-shot register is used to initiate a single conversion and
comparison cycle when the ADM1021A is in standby mode,
after which the device returns to standby. This is not a data
register as such and it is the write operation that causes the oneshot conversion. The data written to this address is irrelevant and
is not stored.
Configuration Register
Two bits of the configuration register are used. If Bit 6 is 0, which
is the power-on default, the device is in operating mode with the
ADC converting. If Bit 6 is set to 1, the device is in standby
mode and the ADC does not convert. Standby mode can also
be selected by taking the STBY pin low. In standby mode the values stored in the Remote and Local Temperature Registers remain
at the value they were when the part was placed in standby.
SERIAL BUS INTERFACE
Control of the ADM1021A is carried out via the serial bus. The
ADM1021A is connected to this bus as a slave device, under the
control of a master device. Note that the SMBus and SCL pins
are three-stated when the ADM1021A is powered down and will
not pull down the SMBus.
Bit 7 of the configuration register is used to mask the ALERT output. If Bit 7 is 0, which is the power-on default, the ALERT output
is enabled. If Bit 7 is set to 1, the ALERT output is disabled.
ADDRESS PINS
In general, every SMBus device has a 7-bit device address (except
for some devices that have extended, 10-bit addresses). When
the master device sends a device address over the bus, the slave
device with that address will respond. The ADM1021A has two
address pins, ADD0 and ADD1, to allow selection of the device
address, so that several ADM1021As can be used on the same
bus, and/or to avoid conflict with other devices. Although only
two address pins are provided, these are three-state, and can be
grounded, left unconnected, or tied to VDD, so that a total of
nine different addresses are possible, as shown in Table VI.

It should be noted that the state of the address pins is only sampled
at power-up, so changing them after power-up will have no effect.
Conversion Rate Register
The lowest three bits of this register are used to program the conversion rate by dividing the ADC clock by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,
or 128, to give conversion times from 125 ms (Code 07h) to 16
seconds (Code 00h). This register can be written to and read back
over the SMBus. The higher five bits of this register are unused
and must be set to zero. Use of slower conversion times greatly
reduces the device power consumption, as shown in Table V.

The serial bus protocol operates as follows:
1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a START
condition, defined as a high-to-low transition on the serial
data line SDATA, while the serial clock line SCLK remains
high. This indicates that an address/data stream will follow.
All slave peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to
the START condition and shift in the next eight bits, consisting
of a 7-bit address (MSB first) plus an R/W bit, which determines the direction of the data transfer, i.e., whether data
will be written to or read from the slave device.
Limit Registers
The ADM1021A has four limit registers to store local and remote,
high and low temperature limits. These registers can be written
to and read back over the SMBus. The high limit registers
perform a > comparison while the low limit registers perform a
< comparison. For example, if the high limit register is programmed as a limit of 80°C, measuring 81°C will result in an
alarm condition. Even though the temperature measurement
range is from 0ⴗ to 127°C, it is possible to program the limit
register with negative values. This is for backwards-compatibility
with the ADM1021.
The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the data line low during the low
period before the ninth clock pulse, known as the Acknowledge Bit. All other devices on the bus now remain idle while
the selected device waits for data to be read from or written
to it. If the R/W bit is a 0, the master will write to the slave
device. If the R/W bit is a 1, the master will read from the
slave device.
–8–
REV. D
ADM1021A
Any number of bytes of data may be transferred over the serial
bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix read and write
in one operation, because the type of operation is determined at
the beginning and cannot subsequently be changed without
starting a new operation.
2. Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock
pulses, eight bits of data followed by an Acknowledge Bit
from the slave device. Transitions on the data line must occur
during the low period of the clock signal and remain stable
during the high period, as a low-to-high transition when the
clock is high may be interpreted as a stop signal. The number
of data bytes that can be transmitted over the serial bus in a
single read or write operation is limited only by what the
master and slave devices can handle.
In the case of the ADM1021A, write operations contain either
one or two bytes, while read operations contain one byte.
To write data to one of the device data registers or read data
from it, the Address Pointer Register must be set so that the
correct data register is addressed, data can then be written into
that register or read from it. The first byte of a write operation
always contains a valid address that is stored in the Address
Pointer Register. If data is to be written to the device, the write
operation contains a second data byte that is written to the register selected by the address pointer register.
3. When all data bytes have been read or written, stop conditions
are established. In write mode, the master will pull the data line
high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop condition. In
read mode, the master device will override the acknowledge bit
by pulling the data line high during the low period before the
ninth clock pulse. This is known as No Acknowledge. The
master will then take the data line low during the low period
before the 10th clock pulse, then high during the 10th clock
pulse to assert a stop condition.

ADM1021A
This is illustrated in Figure 3. The device address is sent over
the bus followed by R/W set to 0. This is followed by two data
bytes. The first data byte is the address of the internal data register to be written to, which is stored in the Address Pointer
Register. The second data byte is the data to be written to the
internal data register.
When reading data from a register there are two possibilities:
1. If the ADM1021A’s Address Pointer Register value is unknown
or not the desired value, it is first necessary to set it to the
correct value before data can be read from the desired data
register. This is done by performing a write to the ADM1021A
as before, but only the data byte containing the register read
address is sent, as data is not to be written to the register.
This is shown in Figure 4.
A read operation is then performed consisting of the serial
bus address, R/W bit set to 1, followed by the data byte read
from the data register. This is shown in Figure 5.
2. If the Address Pointer Register is known to be already at the
desired address, data can be read from the corresponding data
register without first writing to the Address Pointer Register,
so Figure 4 can be omitted.
2. Master initiates a read operation and sends the Alert Response
Address (ARA = 0001 100). This is a general call address
that must not be used as a specific device address.
3. The device whose ALERT output is low responds to the Alert
Response Address and the master reads its device address. The
address of the device is now known and it can be interrogated
in the usual way.
4. If more than one device’s ALERT output is low, the one with
the lowest device address will have priority, in accordance with
normal SMBus arbitration.
5. Once the ADM1021A has responded to the Alert Response
Address, it will reset its ALERT output, provided that the
error condition that caused the ALERT no longer exists. If
the SMBALERT line remains low, the master will send the
ARA again, and so on until all devices whose ALERT outputs
were low have responded.
LOW POWER STANDBY MODES
NOTES
1. Although it is possible to read a data byte from a data register
without first writing to the Address Pointer Register, if the
Address Pointer Register is already at the correct value, it is
not possible to write data to a register without writing to the
Address Pointer Register, because the first data byte of a
write is always written to the Address Pointer Register.
2. Remember that the ADM1021A registers have different
addresses for read and write operations. The write address
of a register must be written to the Address Pointer if data
is to be written to that register, but it is not possible to read
data from that address. The read address of a register must
be written to the Address Pointer before data can be read
from that register.
ALERT OUTPUT
The ALERT output goes low whenever an out-of-limit measurement is detected, or if the remote temperature sensor is
open-circuit. It is an open-drain and requires a 10 kΩ pull-up to
VDD. Several ALERT outputs can be wire-ANDed together, so
that the common line will go low if one or more of the ALERT
outputs goes low.
The ALERT output can be used as an interrupt signal to a processor, or it may be used as an SMBALERT. Slave devices on
the SMBus can normally not signal to the master that they want
to talk, but the SMBALERT function allows them to do so.
One or more ALERT outputs are connected to a common
SMBALERT line connected to the master. When the SMBALERT
line is pulled low by one of the devices, the following procedure
occurs as illustrated in Figure 6.
The ADM1021A can be put into a low power standby mode
using hardware or software, that is, by taking the STBY input
low, or by setting Bit 6 of the Configuration Register. When
STBY is high, or Bit 6 is low, the ADM1021A operates normally.
When STBY is pulled low or Bit 6 is high, the ADC is inhibited,
so any conversion in progress is terminated without writing the
result to the corresponding value register.
The SMBus is still enabled. Power consumption in the standby
mode is reduced to less than 10 µA if there is no SMBus activity,
or 100 µA if there are clock and data signals on the bus.
These two modes are similar but not identical. When STBY is
low, conversions are completely inhibited. When Bit 6 is set but
STBY is high, a one-shot conversion of both channels can be initiated by writing XXh to the One-Shot Register (address 0Fh).
SENSOR FAULT DETECTION
The ADM1021A has a fault detector at the D+ input that detects
if the external sensor diode is open-circuit. This is a simple
voltage comparator that trips if the voltage at D+ exceeds
VCC – 1 V (typical). The output of this comparator is checked
when a conversion is initiated, and sets Bit 2 of the Status Register
if a fault is detected.
If the remote sensor voltage falls below the normal measuring
range, for example due to the diode being short-circuited, the
ADC will output –128°C (1000 0000). Since the normal operating temperature range of the device only extends down to 0°C,
this output code will never be seen in normal operation, so it
can be interpreted as a fault condition.
In this respect, the ADM1021A differs from and improves upon
competitive devices that output zero if the external sensor goes
short-circuit. These devices can misinterpret a genuine 0°C
measurement as a fault condition.
If the external diode channel is not being used and is shorted
out, the resulting ALERT may be cleared by writing 80h (–128°C)
to the low limit register.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
FACTORS AFFECTING ACCURACY
Remote Sensing Diode
Digital boards can be electrically noisy environments, and because
the ADM1021A is measuring very small voltages from the
remote sensor, care must be taken to minimize noise induced at
the sensor inputs. The following precautions should be taken:
The ADM1021A is designed to work with substrate transistors
built into processors, or with discrete transistors. Substrate
transistors will generally be PNP types with the collector connected
to the substrate. Discrete types can be either PNP or NPN,
connected as a diode (base shorted to collector). If an NPN
transistor is used, the collector and base are connected to D+ and
the emitter to D–. If a PNP transistor is used, the collector and
base are connected to D– and the emitter to D+.
The user has no choice in the case of substrate transistors, but if
a discrete transistor is used, the best accuracy will be obtained
by choosing devices according to the following criteria:
1. Base-emitter voltage greater than 0.25 V at 6 µA, at the highest operating temperature.
2. Base-emitter voltage less than 0.95 V at 100 µA, at the lowest
operating temperature.
1. Place the ADM1021A as close as possible to the remote
sensing diode. Provided that the worst noise sources such as
clock generators, data/address buses, and CRTs are avoided,
this distance can be four to eight inches.
2. Route the D+ and D– tracks close together, in parallel, with
grounded guard tracks on each side. Provide a ground plane
under the tracks if possible.
3. Use wide tracks to minimize inductance and reduce noise pickup.
10 mil track minimum width and spacing is recommended.
4. Try to minimize the number of copper/solder joints, which
can cause thermocouple effects. Where copper/solder joints
are used, make sure that they are in both the D+ and D– paths
and at the same temperature.
3. Base resistance less than 100 Ω.
Thermocouple effects should not be a major problem as 1°C
corresponds to about 240 µV, and thermocouple voltages are
about 3 µV/°C of temperature difference. Unless there are
two thermocouples with a big temperature differential between
them, thermocouple voltages should be much less than 240 µV.
4. Small variation in hFE (say 50 to 150), which indicates tight
control of VBE characteristics.
Transistors such as 2N3904, 2N3906, or equivalents in SOT-23
package are suitable devices to use.
Thermal Inertia and Self-Heating
Accuracy depends on the temperature of the remote-sensing
diode and/or the internal temperature sensor being at the same
temperature as that being measured, and a number of factors
can affect this. Ideally, the sensor should be in good thermal contact with the part of the system being measured, for example the
processor. If it is not, the thermal inertia caused by the mass of
the sensor will cause a lag in the response of the sensor to a temperature change. In the case of the remote sensor this should not
be a problem, as it will be either a substrate transistor in the processor or a small package device such as SOT-23 placed in close
proximity to it.
The on-chip sensor, however, will often be remote from the
processor and will only be monitoring the general ambient temperature around the package. The thermal time constant of the
QSOP-16 package is about 10 seconds.
In practice, the package will have electrical, and hence thermal,
connection to the printed circuit board, so the temperature rise
due to self-heating will be negligible.

ADM1021A
The SCLK and SDATA pins of the ADM1021A can be interfaced directly to the SMBus of an I/O chip. Figure 9 shows how
the ADM1021A might be integrated into a system using this
type of I/O controller.
7. For really long distances (up to 100 feet), use shielded twisted
pair such as Belden #8451 microphone cable. Connect the
twisted pair to D+ and D– and the shield to GND close to
the ADM1021A. Leave the remote end of the shield unconnected to avoid ground loops.
Because the measurement technique uses switched current sources,
excessive cable and/or filter capacitance can affect the measurement. When using long cables, the filter capacitor may be
reduced or removed.
