General Purpose Temperature Monitoring
The TCN75A product comes with user-programmable
registers that provide flexibility for temperature-sensing
applications. The register settings allow user-selectable, 0.5°C to 0.0625°C temperature measurement
resolution, configuration of the power-saving Shutdown
and One-shot (single conversion on command while in
Shutdown) modes and the specification of both
temperature alert output and hysteresis limits. When
the temperature changes beyond the specified limits,
the TCN75A outputs an alert signal. The user has the
option of setting the alert output signal polarity as an
active-low or active-high comparator output for thermostat operation, or as temperature event interrupt output
for microprocessor-based systems.
This sensor has an industry standard 2-wire, I2C™
compatible serial interface, allowing up to eight devices
to be controlled in a single serial bus. These features
make the TCN75A ideal for low-cost, sophisticated
multi-zone temperature-monitoring applications.

SERIAL COMMUNICATION
4.1.1
4.1
2-Wire SMBus/Standard Mode
I2C™ Protocol-Compatible
Interface
Data transfers are initiated by a Start condition
(START), followed by a 7-bit device address and a
read/write bit. An Acknowledge (ACK) from the slave
confirms the reception of each byte. Each access must
be terminated by a Stop condition (STOP).
The TCN75A serial clock input (SCL) and the
bidirectional serial data line (SDA) form a 2-wire
bidirectional SMBus/Standard mode I2C compatible
communication port (refer to the Digital Input/output
Pin Characteristics Table and Serial Interface Timing Specifications (Note 1) Table).
The following bus protocol has been defined:
TABLE 4-1:
TCN75A SERIAL BUS
PROTOCOL DESCRIPTIONS
Term
Description
Master
The device that controls the serial bus,
typically a microcontroller.
Slave
The device addressed by the master,
such as the TCN75A.
Transmitter Device sending data to the bus.
Receiver
Device receiving data from the bus.
START
A unique signal from master to initiate
serial interface with a slave.
STOP
A unique signal from the master to
terminate serial interface from a slave.
Read/Write A read or write to the TCN75A
registers.
ACK
A receiver Acknowledges (ACK) the
reception of each byte by polling the
bus.
NAK
A receiver Not-Acknowledges (NAK) or
releases the bus to show End-of-Data
(EOD).
Busy
Communication is not possible
because the bus is in use.
Not Busy
The bus is in the idle state, both SDA
and SCL remain high.
Data Valid
SDA must remain stable before SCL
becomes high in order for a data bit to
be considered valid. During normal
data transfers, SDA only changes state
while SCL is low.
DS21935C-page 8
DATA TRANSFER
Repeated communication is initiated after tB-FREE.
This device does not support sequential register read/
write. Each register needs to be addressed using the
Register Pointer.
This device supports the Receive Protocol. The
register can be specified using the pointer for the initial
read. Each repeated read or receive begins with a Start
condition and address byte. The TCN75A retains the
previously selected register. Therefore, it outputs data
from the previously-specified register (repeated pointer
specification is not necessary).
4.1.2
MASTER/SLAVE
The bus is controlled by a master device (typically a
microcontroller) that controls the bus access and
generates the Start and Stop conditions. The TCN75A
is a slave device and does not control other devices in
the bus. Both master and slave devices can operate as
either transmitter or receiver. However, the master
device determines which mode is activated.
4.1.3
START/STOP CONDITION
A high-to-low transition of the SDA line (while SCL is
high) is the Start condition. All data transfers must be
preceded by a Start condition from the master. If a Start
condition is generated during data transfer, the
TCN75A resets and accepts the new Start condition.
A low-to-high transition of the SDA line (while SCL is
high) signifies a Stop condition. If a Stop condition is
introduced during data transmission, the TCN75A
releases the bus. All data transfers are ended by a Stop
condition from the master.
4.1.4
ADDRESS BYTE
Following the Start condition, the host must transmit an
8-bit address byte to the TCN75A. The address for the
TCN75A Temperature Sensor is ‘1001,A2,A1,A0’ in
binary, where the A2, A1 and A0 bits are set externally
by connecting the corresponding pins to VDD ‘1’ or
GND ‘0’. The 7-bit address transmitted in the serial bit
stream must match the selected address for the
TCN75A to respond with an ACK. Bit 8 in the address
byte is a read/write bit. Setting this bit to ‘1’ commands
a read operation, while ‘0’ commands a write operation
(see Figure 4-1).

DATA VALID
After the Start condition, each bit of data in
transmission needs to be settled for a time specified by
tSU-DATA before SCL toggles from low-to-high (see
“Sensor And EEPROM Serial Interface Timing
Specifications” on Page 4).
© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc.
ACKNOWLEDGE (ACK)
Each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to
generate an ACK bit after the reception of each byte.
The master device must generate an extra clock pulse
for ACK to be recognized.
The acknowledging device pulls down the SDA line for
tSU-DATA before the low-to-high transition of SCL from
the master. SDA also needs to remain pulled down for
tH-DATA after a high-to-low transition of SCL.
During read, the master must signal an End-of-Data
(EOD) to the slave by not generating an ACK bit (NAK)
once the last bit has been clocked out of the slave. In
this case, the slave will leave the data line released to
enable the master to generate the Stop condition.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TCN75A temperature sensor consists of a bandgap type temperature sensor, a ΣΔ Analog-to-Digital
Converter (ADC), user-programmable registers and a
2-wire I2C protocol-compatible serial interface.
5.1
The TCN75A uses the difference in the base-emitter
voltage of a transistor while its collector current is
changed from IC1 to IC2. With this method, the ΔVBE
depends only on the ratio of the two currents and the
ambient temperature, as shown in Equation 5-1.

ΣΔ Analog-to-Digital Converter
A Sigma-Delta ADC is used to convert ΔVBE to a digital
word that corresponds to the transistor temperature.
The converter has an adjustable resolution from 0.5°C
(at 30 ms conversion time) to 0.0625°C (at 240 ms
conversion time). Thus, it allows the user to make tradeoffs between resolution and conversion time. Refer to
Section 5.3.2 “Sensor Configuration Register
(CONFIG)” and Section 5.3.4.7 “ΣΔ ADC Resolution”
for details.

5.3
Registers
Resolution
The TCN75A has four registers that are user-accessible. These registers are specified as the Ambient
Temperature (TA) register, the Temperature Limit-set
(TSET) register, the Temperature Hysteresis (THYST)
register and device Configuration (CONFIG) register.
One-Shot
Shutdown
Fault Queue
The Ambient Temperature register is a read-only
register and is used to access the ambient temperature
data. The data from the ADC is loaded in parallel in the
register. The Temperature Limit-set and Temperature
Hysteresis registers are read/write registers that
provide user-programmable temperature limits. If the
ambient temperature drifts beyond the programmed
limits, the TCN75A outputs an alert signal using the
ALERT pin (refer to Section 5.3.4.3 “ALERT Output
Configuration”). The device Configuration register
provides access for the user to configure the TCN75A’s
various features. These registers are described in
further detail in the following sections.

Register
The registers are accessed by sending register
pointers to the TCN75A using the serial interface. This
is an 8-bit pointer. However, the two Least Significant
bits (LSbs) are used as pointers and all other bits need
to be cleared <0>. This device has additional registers
that are reserved for test and calibration. If these
registers are accessed, the device may not perform
according to the specification. The pointer description
is shown below.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
REGISTER (TA)
The TCN75A has a 16-bit read-only Ambient
Temperature register that contains 9-bit to 12-bit
temperature data. (0.5°C to 0.0625°C resolutions,
respecively). This data is formatted in two’s
complement. The bit assignments, as well as the
corresponding resolution, is shown in the register
assignment below.
conversion in the background. The decimal code to
ambient temperature conversion is shown in
Equation 5-2:
EQUATION 5-2:
T A = Code × 2
Where:
TA = Ambient Temperature (°C)
The refresh rate of this register depends on the
selected ADC resolution. It takes 30 ms (typ.) for 9-bit
data and 240 ms (typ.) for 12-bit data. Since this
register is double-buffered, the user can read the
register while the TCN75A performs Analog-to-Digital

TEMPERATURE HYSTERESIS
REGISTER (THYST)
The TCN75A has a 16-bit read/write Temperature
Hysteresis register that contains a 9-bit data in two’s
compliment format. This register is used to set a
hysteresis for the TSET limit. Therefore, the data
represents a minimum temperature limit. If the ambient
temperature drifts below the specified limit, the
TCN75A asserts an alert output (refer to
Section 5.3.4.3 “ALERT Output Configuration”).
This register uses the nine Most Significant bits (MSbs)
and all other bits are don’t cares.
The power-up default value of THYST register is 75°C,

TCN75A
5.3.4.1
5.3.4.3
Shutdown Mode
The Shutdown mode disables all power-consuming
activities (including temperature sampling operations)
while leaving the serial interface active. The device
consumes 2 μA (max.) in this mode. It remains in this
mode until the Configuration register is updated to
enable continuous conversion or until power is
recycled.
In Shutdown mode, the CONFIG, TA, TSET and THYST
registers can be read or written to; however, the serial
bus activity will increase the shutdown current.
5.3.4.2
One-Shot Mode
The TCN75A can also be used in a One-shot mode that
can be selected using bit 7 of the CONFIG register. The
One-shot mode performs a single temperature
measurement and returns to Shutdown mode. This
mode is especially useful for low-power applications
where temperature is measured upon command from a
controller. For example, a 9-bit TA in One-shot mode
consumes 200 μA (typ.) for 30 ms and 0.1 μA (typ.)
during shutdown.
To access this feature, the device needs to initially be
in Shutdown mode. This is done by sending a byte to
the CONFIG register with bit 0 set <1> and bit 7 cleared
<0>. Once the device is in Shutdown mode, the
CONFIG register needs to be written to again, with bit
0 and bit 7 set <1>. This begins the single conversion
cycle of tCONV, 30ms for 9-bit data. Once the
conversion is completed, TA is updated and bit 7 of
CONFIG becomes cleared <0> by the TCN75A.

ALERT Output Configuration
The ALERT output can be configured as either a
comparator output or as Interrupt Output mode using
bit 1 of CONFIG. The polarity can also be specified as
an active-high or active-low using bit 2 of CONFIG.
The following sections describe each output mode,
while Figure 5-6 gives a graphical description.
5.3.4.4
Comparator Mode
In Comparator mode, the ALERT output is asserted
when TA is greater than TSET. The pin remains active
until TA is lower than THYST. The Comparator mode is
useful for thermostat-type applications, such as turning
on a cooling fan or triggering a system shutdown when
the temperature exceeds a safe operating range.
In Comparator mode, if the device enters the Shutdown
mode with asserted ALERT output, the output remains
active during shutdown. The device must be operating
in continuous conversion, with TA below THYST, for the
ALERT output to be deasserted.
5.3.4.5
Interrupt Mode
In Interrupt mode, the ALERT output is asserted when TA
is greater than TSET. However, the output is deasserted
when the user performs a read from any register. This
mode is designed for interrupt-driven, microcontrollerbased systems. The microcontroller receiving the interrupt will have to acknowledge the interrupt by reading
any register from the TCN75A. This will clear the interrupt
and the ALERT pin will become deasserted. When TA
drifts below THYST, the TCN75A outputs another interrupt
and the controller needs to read a register to deassert the
ALERT output. Shutting down the device will also reset,
or deassert, the ALERT output.

5.3.4.6
5.4
Fault Queue
The fault queue feature can be used as a filter to lessen
the probability of spurious activation of the ALERT pin.
TA must remain above TSET for the consecutive number of conversion cycles selected using the Fault
Queue bits. Bit 3 and bit 4 of CONFIG can be used to
select up to six fault queue cycles. For example, if six
fault queues are selected, TA must be greater than
TSET for six consecutive conversions before ALERT is
asserted as a comparator or an interrupt output.
This queue setting also applies for THYST. If six fault
queues are selected, TA must remain below THYST for
six consecutive conversions before ALERT is deasserted (Comparator mode) or before another interrupt
is asserted (Interrupt mode).
5.3.4.7
Summary of Power-up Condition
The TCN75A has an internal Power-on Reset (POR)
circuit. If the power supply voltage VDD glitches down
to the 1.7V (typ.) threshold, the device resets the
registers to the power-up default settings.
Table 5-2 shows the power-up default summary.

ΣΔ ADC Resolution
The TCN75A provides access to select the ADC
resolution from 9-bit to 12-bit (0.5°C to 0.0625°C
resolution) using bit 6 and bit 5 of the CONFIG register.
The user can gain better insight into the trends and
characteristics of the ambient temperature by using a
finer resolution. Increasing the resolution also reduces
the quantization error. Figure 2-3 shows accuracy
versus resolution.
Table 5-1 shows the TA register conversion time for the
corresponding resolution.

At power-up, the TCN75A has an inherent 2 ms (typ.)

reduces register corruption due to unsettled power.
After power-up, it takes tCONV for the TCN75A to
update the TA register with valid temperature data.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
6.1
Connecting to the Serial Bus
The SDA and SCL serial interface are open-drain pins
that require pull-up resistors. This configuration is
shown in Figure 6-1.
VDD
R
R
TCN75A
SDA
SCL
PIC®
MCU
The ALERT output can be wire-ORed with a number of
other open-drain devices. In such applications, the
output needs to be programmed as an active-low
output. Most systems will require pull-up resistors for
this configuration.
6.3
The TCN75A does not require any additional components besides the master controller in order to measure
temperature. However, it is recommended that a
decoupling capacitor of 0.1 μF to 1 μF be used
between the VDD and GND pins. A high-frequency
ceramic capacitor is recommended. It is necessary for
the capacitor to be located as close as possible to the
power pins in order to provide effective noise
protection.
6.4
FIGURE 6-1:
Interface.
Pull-up Resistors On Serial
The TCN75A is designed to meet 0.4V (max.) voltage
drop at 3 mA of current. This allows the TCN75A to
drive lower values of pull-up resistors and higher bus
capacitance. In this application, all devices on the bus
must meet the same pull-down current requirements.
6.2
Typical Application
Microchip provides several microcontroller product
lines with Master Synchronous Serial Port Modules
(MSSP) that include the I2C interface mode. This
module implements all master and slave functions and
simplifies the firmware development overhead.
Figure 6-2 shows a typical application using the
PIC16F737 as a master to control other Microchip
slave products, such as EEPROM, fan speed
controllers and the TCN75A temperature sensor
connected to the bus.
Layout Considerations
Thermal Considerations
The TCN75A measures temperature by monitoring the
voltage of a diode located in the die. A low-impedance
thermal path between the die and the Printed Circuit
Board (PCB) is provided by the pins. Therefore, the
TCN75A effectively monitors the temperature of the
PCB. However, the thermal path for the ambient air is
not as efficient because the plastic device package
functions as a thermal insulator.
A potential for self-heating errors can exist if the
TCN75A SDA and SCL communication lines are
heavily loaded with pull-ups. Typically, the self-heating
error is negligible because of the relatively small
current consumption of the TCN75A. However, in order
to maximize the temperature accuracy, the SDA and
SCL pins need to be lightly loaded.
