19-2545; Rev 4; 6/08 Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms The MAX6648/MAX6692 are precise, two-channel digital temperature sensors. They accurately measure the temperature of their own die and a remote PN junction, and report the temperature in digital form using a 2-wire serial interface. The remote PN junction is typically the emitter-base junction of a common-collector PNP on a CPU, FPGA, or ASIC. The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard System Management Bus (SMBus)™ write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte commands to read the temperature data and to program the alarm thresholds. To enhance system reliability, the MAX6648/MAX6692 include an SMBus timeout. A fault queue prevents the ALERT and OVERT outputs from setting until a fault has been detected one, two, or three consecutive times (programmable). The MAX6648/MAX6692 provide two system alarms: ALERT and OVERT. ALERT asserts when any of four temperature conditions are violated: local overtemperature, remote overtemperature, local undertemperature, or remote undertemperature. OVERT asserts when the temperature rises above the value in either of the two OVERT limit registers. The OVERT output can be used to activate a cooling fan, or to trigger a system shutdown. Measurements can be done autonomously, with the conversion rate programmed by the user, or in a singleshot mode. The adjustable conversion rate allows the user to optimize supply current and temperature update rate to match system needs. Remote accuracy is ±0.8°C maximum error between +25°C and +125°C with no calibration needed. The MAX6648/MAX6692 operate from -55°C to +125°C, and measure temperatures between 0°C and +125°C. The MAX6648 is available in an 8-pin µMAX® package, and the MAX6692 is available in 8-pin µMAX and SO packages.

See the ALERT Interrupts section. 6 ALERT 7 SDA SMBus Serial-Data Input/Output, Open Drain 8 SCLK SMBus Serial-Clock Input Detailed Description The MAX6648/MAX6692 are temperature sensors designed to work in conjunction with a microprocessor or other intelligence in thermostatic, process-control, or monitoring applications. Communication with the MAX6648/MAX6692 occurs through the SMBus-compatible serial interface and dedicated alert pins. ALERT asserts if the measured local or remote temperature is greater than the software-programmed ALERT high limit or less than the ALERT low limit. ALERT also asserts if the remote-sensing diode pins are shorted or unconnected. The overtemperature alarm, OVERT, asserts if the software-programmed OVERT limit is exceeded. OVERT can be connected to fans, a system shutdown, a clock throttle control, or other thermalmanagement circuitry. The MAX6648/MAX6692 convert temperatures to digital data either at a programmed rate or in single conversions. Temperature data is represented as 10 bits plus sign, with the LSB equal to 0.125°C. The “main” temperature data registers (at addresses 00h and 01h) are 8-bit registers that represent the data as 7 bits with the final MSB indicating the diode fault status (Table 1). The remaining 3 bits of temperature data are available in the “extended” registers at addresses 11h and 10h (Table 2). ADC and Multiplexer The averaging ADC integrates over a 60ms period (each channel, typically), with excellent noise rejection. The multiplexer automatically steers bias currents through the remote and local diodes. The ADC and associated circuitry measure each diode’s forward voltage and compute the temperature based on this voltage. Both channels are automatically converted once the conversion process has started, either in free-running or single-shot mode. If one of the two channels is not used, the device still performs both measurements, and the user can ignore the results of the unused chan- Table 1.

If the remote-diode channel is unused, connect DXP to DXN rather than leaving the pins open. The DXN input is biased to one VBE above ground by an internal diode to prepare the ADC inputs for a differential measurement. The worst-case DXP-DXN differential input voltage range is 0.25V to 0.95V. Excess resistance in series with the remote diode causes +0.5°C (typ) error per ohm. A/D Conversion Sequence A conversion sequence consists of a local temperature measurement and a remote temperature measurement. Each time a conversion begins, whether initiated automatically in the free-running autonomous mode (RUN = 0) or by writing a one-shot command, both channels are converted, and the results of both measurements are available after the end of a conversion. A BUSY status bit in the status byte indicates that the device is performing a new conversion. The results of the previous conversion are always available, even if the ADC is busy. Low-Power Standby Mode Standby mode reduces the supply current to less than 10µA by disabling the ADC and timing circuitry. Enter standby mode by setting the RUN bit to 1 in the configuration byte register (Table 6). All data is retained in memory, and the SMBus interface is active and listening for SMBus commands. Standby mode is not a shutdown mode. With activity on the SMBus, the device draws more supply current (see Typical Operating Characteristics). In standby mode, the MAX6648/MAX6692 can be forced to perform A/D conversions through the one-shot command, regardless of the RUN bit status. If a standby command is received while a conversion is in progress, the conversion cycle is truncated, and the data from that conversion is not latched into a temperature register. The previous data is not changed and remains available. Supply-current drain during the 125ms conversion period is 500µA (typ). Slowing down the conversion rate reduces the average supply current (see Typical Operating Characteristics). Between conversions, the conversion rate timer consumes about 25µA of supply current. In standby mode, supply current drops to about 3µA. SMBus Digital Interface From a software perspective, the MAX6648/MAX6692 appear as a set of byte-wide registers that contain temperature data, alarm threshold values, and control bits. A standard SMBus-compatible 2-wire serial interface is used to read temperature data and write control bits and alarm threshold data. These devices respond to the same SMBus slave address for access to all functions. 6 The MAX6648/MAX6692 employ four standard SMBus protocols: write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte (Figures 1, 2, and 3). The shorter receive byte protocol allows quicker transfers, provided that the correct data register was previously selected by a read byte instruction. Use caution when using the shorter protocols in multimaster systems, as a second master could overwrite the command byte without informing the first master. Temperature data can be read from the read internal temperature (00h) and read external temperature (01h) registers. The temperature data format for these registers is 7 bits plus 1 bit, indicating the diode fault status for each channel, with the LSB representing 1°C (Table 1). The MSB is transmitted first. An additional 3 bits can be read from the read external extended temperature register (10h), which extends the data to 10 bits plus sign and the resolution to 0.125°C per LSB (Table 2). An additional 3 bits can be read from the read internal extended temperature register (11h), which extends the data to 10 bits (plus 1 bit indicating the diode fault status) and the resolution to 0.125°C per LSB (Table 2). When a conversion is complete, the main temperature register and the extended temperature register are updated simultaneously. Ensure that no conversions are completed between reading the main register and the extended register, so that both registers contain the result of the same conversion. To ensure valid extended data, read extended resolution temperature data using one of the following approaches: 1) Put the MAX6648/MAX6692 into standby mode by setting bit 6 of the configuration register to 1. Initiate a one-shot conversion using command byte 0Fh. When this conversion is complete, read the contents of the temperature data registers. Table 2.

If the BUSY bit indicates that a conversion is in progress, wait until the conversion is complete (BUSY bit set to zero) before reading the temperature data. Following a conversion completion, immediately read the contents of the temperature data registers. If no conversion is in progress, the data can be read within a few microseconds, which is a sufficiently short period of time to ensure that a new conversion cannot be completed until after the data has been read. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 7 MAX6648/MAX6692 Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms A B tLOW C D E F G tHIGH H I J K L M SMBCLK SMBDATA tSU:STA tHD:STA tSU:STO tSU:DAT A = START CONDITION B = MSB OF ADDRESS CLOCKED INTO SLAVE C = LSB OF ADDRESS CLOCKED INTO SLAVE D = R/W BIT CLOCKED INTO SLAVE E = SLAVE PULLS SMBDATA LINE LOW F = ACKNOWLEDGE BIT CLOCKED INTO MASTER G = MSB OF DATA CLOCKED INTO SLAVE H = LSB OF DATA CLOCKED INTO SLAVE tBUF I = MASTER PULLS DATA LINE LOW J = ACKNOWLEDGE CLOCKED INTO SLAVE K = ACKNOWLEDGE CLOCK PULSE L = STOP CONDITION M = NEW START CONDITION Figure 3. SMBus Read Timing Diagram Alarm Threshold Registers Four registers store ALERT threshold values—one hightemperature (THIGH) and one low-temperature (TLOW) register each for the local and remote channels. If either measured temperature equals or exceeds the corresponding ALERT threshold value, the ALERT interrupt asserts. The power-on-reset (POR) state of both ALERT THIGH registers is full scale (0101 0101, or +85°C). The POR state of both TLOW registers is 0000 0000, or 0°C. Two additional registers store remote and local alarm threshold data corresponding to the OVERT output. The values stored in these registers are high-temperature thresholds. If either of the measured temperatures equals or exceeds the corresponding alarm threshold value, an OVERT output asserts. The POR state of the OVERT threshold is 0110 1110 or +110°C for the MAX6648, and 0101 0101 or +85°C for the MAX6692. Diode Fault Alarm A continuity fault detector at DXP detects an open circuit between DXP and DXN, or a DXP short to VCC, GND, or DXN. If an open or short circuit exists, the external temperature register is loaded with 1000 0000. If the fault is an open-circuit fault bit 2 (OPEN) of the status byte, it is set to 1 and the ALERT condition is activated at the end of the conversion. Immediately after POR, the status register indicates that no fault is present. If a fault is present upon power-up, the fault is not indicated until the end of the first conversion. ALERT Interrupts The ALERT interrupt occurs when the internal or external temperature reading exceeds a high- or low-temperature limit (user programmed) or when the remote diode is disconnected (for continuity fault detection). 8 The ALERT interrupt output signal is latched and can be cleared only by either reading the status register or by successfully responding to an alert response address. In both cases, the alert is cleared only if the fault condition no longer exists. Asserting ALERT does not halt automatic conversion. The ALERT output pin is open drain, allowing multiple devices to share a common interrupt line. The MAX6648/MAX6692 respond to the SMBus alert response address, an interrupt pointer return-address feature (see the Alert Response Address section). Prior to taking corrective action, always check to ensure that an interrupt is valid by reading the current temperature. Fault Queue Register In some systems, it may be desirable to ignore a single temperature measurement that falls outside the ALERT limits. Bits 2 and 3 of the fault queue register (address 22h) determine the number of consecutive temperature faults necessary to set ALERT (see Tables 3 and 4). Alert Response Address The SMBus alert response interrupt pointer provides quick fault identification for simple slave devices that lack the complex, expensive logic needed to be a bus master. Upon receiving an ALERT interrupt signal, the host master can broadcast a receive byte transmission to the alert response slave address (0001 100). Following such a broadcast, any slave device that generated an interrupt attempts to identify itself by putting its own address on the bus. The alert response can activate several different slave devices simultaneously, similar to the I2C general call. If more than one slave attempts to respond, bus arbitration rules apply, and the device with the lower address code wins. The losing device does not generate an _______________________________________________________________________________________ Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms BIT 7 6 to 3 NAME RFU RFU POR STATE FUNCTION 1 Reserved.

Always write zero to this bit. acknowledge and continues to hold the ALERT line low until cleared. (The conditions for clearing an ALERT vary, depending on the type of slave device). Successful completion of the read alert response protocol clears the interrupt latch, provided the condition that caused the alert no longer exists. OVERT Overtemperature Alarm/Warning Outputs OVERT asserts when the temperature rises to a value stored in one of the OVERT limit registers (19h, 20h). It deasserts when the temperature drops below the stored limit, minus hysteresis. OVERT can be used to activate a cooling fan, send a warning, invoke clock throttling, or trigger a system shutdown to prevent component damage. Command Byte Functions The 8-bit command byte register (Table 5) is the master index that points to the various other registers within the MAX6648/MAX6692. The register’s POR state is 0000 0000, so a receive byte transmission (a protocol that lacks the command byte) that occurs immediately after POR, returns the current local temperature data. The MAX6648/MAX6692 incorporate collision avoidance so that completely asynchronous operation is allowed between SMBus operations and temperature conversions. One-Shot The one-shot command immediately forces a new conversion cycle to begin. If the one-shot command is received while the MAX6648/MAX6692 are in standby mode (RUN bit = 1), a new conversion begins, after which the device returns to standby mode. If a one-shot Table 4. Fault Queue Length Bit Definition FQ1 FQ0 FAULT QUEUE LENGTH (SAMPLES) 0 0 1 0 1 2 1 1 3 1 0 — conversion is in progress when a one-shot command is received, the command is ignored. If a one-shot command is received in autonomous mode (RUN bit = 0) between conversions, a new conversion begins, the conversion rate timer is reset, and the next automatic conversion takes place after a full delay elapses. Configuration Byte Functions The configuration byte register (Table 6) is a read-write register with several functions. Bit 7 is used to mask (disable) interrupts. Bit 6 puts the MAX6648/MAX6692 into standby mode (STOP) or autonomous (RUN) mode. Status Byte Functions The status byte register (Table 7) indicates which (if any) temperature thresholds have been exceeded. This byte also indicates whether the ADC is converting and whether there is an open-circuit fault detected in the external sense junction. After POR, the normal state of all flag bits is zero, assuming no alarm conditions are present. The status byte is cleared by any successful read of the status byte, after a conversion is complete and the fault no longer exists. Note that the ALERT interrupt latch is not automatically cleared when the status flag bit indicating the ALERT is cleared. The fault condition must be eliminated before the ALERT output can be cleared. When autoconverting, if the THIGH and TLOW limits are close together, it is possible for both high-temp and low-temp status bits to be set, depending on the amount of time between status read operations (especially when converting at the fastest rate). In these circumstances, it is best not to rely on the status bits to indicate reversals in long-term temperature changes. Instead use a current temperature reading to establish the trend direction. Conversion Rate Byte The conversion rate register (Table 8) programs the time interval between conversions in free-running autonomous mode (RUN = 0). This variable rate control can be used to reduce the supply current in portableequipment applications. The conversion rate byte’s POR state is 07h or 4Hz.

Effect of Ideality Factor The accuracy of the remote temperature measurements depends on the ideality factor (n) of the remote “diode” ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 MAX6648/MAX6692 Table 7. Status Register Bit Assignments (02h) MAX6648/MAX6692 Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms (actually a transistor). The MAX6648/MAX6692 (not the MAX6648Y/MAX6692Y) are optimized for n = 1.008, which is the typical value for the Intel® Pentium® III and the AMD Athlon MP model 6. If a sense transistor with a different ideality factor is used, the output data is different. Fortunately, the difference is predictable. Assume a remote-diode sensor designed for a nominal ideality factor nNOMINAL is used to measure the temperature of a diode with a different ideality factor n1. The measured temperature TM can be corrected using: ⎛ ⎞ n1 TM = TACTUAL ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ nNOMINAL ⎠ where temperature is measured in Kelvin. As mentioned above, the nominal ideality factor of the MAX6648/MAX6692 is 1.008. As an example, assume you want to use the MAX6648/MAX6692 with a CPU that has an ideality factor of 1.002. If the diode has no series resistance, the measured data is related to the real temperature as follows: ⎛n ⎞ ⎛ 1.008 ⎞ TACTUAL = TM ⎜ NOMINAL ⎟ = TM ⎜ ⎟ = TM (1.00599) ⎝ 1.002 ⎠ n1 ⎝ ⎠ resistance of 3Ω. The series resistance contributes an offset of: 3Ω × 0.453 °C = 1.36°C Ω The effects of the ideality factor and series resistance are additive. If the diode has an ideality factor of 1.002 and series resistance of 3Ω, the total offset can be calculated by adding error due to series resistance with error due to ideality factor: 1.36°C - 2.13°C = -0.77°C for a diode temperature of +85°C. In this example, the effect of the series resistance and the ideality factor partially cancel each other. For best accuracy, the discrete transistor should be a small-signal device with its collector and base connected together. Table 9 lists examples of discrete transistors that are appropriate for use with the MAX6648/ MAX6692. Table 9. Remote-Sensor Transistor Manufacturers MANUFACTURER For a real temperature of +85°C (358.15 K), the measured temperature is +82.91°C (356.02 K), which is an error of -2.13°C. Effect of Series Resistance Series resistance in a sense diode contributes additional errors. For nominal diode currents of 10µA and 100µA, change in the measured voltage is: ΔVM = RS (100μA − 10μA) = 90μA × RS Since 1°C corresponds to 198.6µV, series resistance contributes a temperature offset of: 90 μV Ω = 0.453 °C μV Ω 198.6 °C Assume that the diode being measured has a series Central Semiconductor (USA) Rohm Semiconductor (USA) MODEL NO. CMPT3904 SST3904 Samsung (Korea) KST3904-TF Siemens (Germany) SMBT3904 Note: Transistors must be diode connected (base shorted to collector). The transistor must be a small-signal type with a relatively high forward voltage; otherwise, the A/D input voltage range can be violated. The forward voltage at the highest expected temperature must be greater than 0.25V at 10µA, and at the lowest expected temperature, the forward voltage must be less than 0.95V at 100µA. Large power transistors must not be used. Also, ensure that the base resistance is less than 100Ω. Tight specifications for forward current gain (50 < ß <150, for example) indicate that the manufacturer has good process controls and that the devices have consistent VBE characteristics.

Parasitic series resistance can be higher, which increases the measured temperature value. Beta may ______________________________________________________________________________________ Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms ADC Noise Filtering The integrating ADC used has good noise rejection for low-frequency signals such as 60Hz/120Hz power-supply hum. In noisy environments, high-frequency noise reduction is needed for high-accuracy remote measurements. The noise can be reduced with careful PCB layout and proper external noise filtering. High-frequency EMI is best filtered at DXP and DXN with an external 2200pF capacitor. Larger capacitor values can be used for added filtering, but do not exceed 3300pF because larger values can introduce errors due to the rise time of the switched current source. PCB Layout Follow these guidelines to reduce the measurement error of the temperature sensors: 1) Place the MAX6648/MAX6692 as close as is practical to the remote diode. In noisy environments, such as a computer motherboard, this distance can be 4in to 8in (typ). This length can be increased if the worst noise sources are avoided. Noise sources include CRTs, clock generators, memory buses, and ISA/PCI buses. 2) Do not route the DXP-DXN lines next to the deflection coils of a CRT. Also, do not route the traces across fast digital signals, which can easily introduce 30°C error, even with good filtering. 3) Route the DXP and DXN traces in parallel and in close proximity to each other, away from any higher voltage traces, such as 12V DC. Leakage currents from PCB contamination must be dealt with carefully since a 20MΩ leakage path from DXP to ground causes about 1°C error. If high-voltage traces are unavoidable, connect guard traces to GND on either side of the DXP-DXN traces (Figure 4). 4) Route through as few vias and crossunders as possible to minimize copper/solder thermocouple effects. 5) When introducing a thermocouple, make sure that both the DXP and the DXN paths have matching thermocouples. A copper-solder thermocouple GND 10MILS 10MILS DXP MINIMUM 10MILS DXN 10MILS GND Figure 4. Recommended DXP-DXN PC Traces exhibits 3µV/°C, and takes about 200µV of voltage error at DXP-DXN to cause a 1°C measurement error. Adding a few thermocouples causes a negligible error. 6) Use wide traces. Narrow traces are more inductive and tend to pick up radiated noise. The 10mil widths and spacing recommended in Figure 4 are not absolutely necessary, as they offer only a minor improvement in leakage and noise over narrow traces. Use wider traces when practical. 7) Add a 200Ω resistor in series with VCC for best noise filtering (see Typical Operating Circuit ). 8) Copper cannot be used as an EMI shield; only ferrous materials such as steel work well. Placing a copper ground plane between the DXP-DXN traces and traces carrying high-frequency noise signals does not help reduce EMI. Twisted-Pair and Shielded Cables Use a twisted-pair cable to connect the remote sensor for remote-sensor distance longer than 8in, or in very noisy environments. Twisted-pair cable lengths can be between 6ft and 12ft before noise introduces excessive errors. For longer distances, the best solution is a shielded twisted pair like that used for audio microphones. For example, Belden 8451 works well for distances up to 100ft in a noisy environment. At the device, connect the twisted pair to DXP and DXN and the shield to GND. Leave the shield unconnected at the remote sensor. For very long cable runs, the cable’s parasitic capacitance often provides noise filtering, so the 2200pF capacitor can often be removed or reduced in value. Cable resistance also affects remote-sensor accuracy. For every 1Ω of series resistance, the error is approximately 0.5°C. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 13 MAX6648/MAX6692 be low enough to alter the effective ideality factor. Good results can be obtained if the process is consistent and well behaved. For example, the curve shown in the Remote Temperature Error vs. 45nm Remote Diode Temperature graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics section shows the temperature measurement error of the MAX6648/MAX6692 when used with a typical 45nm CPU thermal diode. Note that the error is effectively a simple +4°C offset.

The leads provide a good thermal path between the PCB traces and the die. Thermal conductivity between the die and the ambient air is poor by comparison, making air temperature measurements impractical. Because the thermal mass of the PCB is far greater than that of the MAX6648/MAX6692, the devices follow temperature changes on the PCB with little or no perceivable delay. When measuring the temperature of a CPU or other IC with an on-chip sense junction, thermal mass has virtually no effect; the measured temperature of the junction tracks the actual temperature within a conversion cycle. When measuring temperature with discrete remote sensors, smaller packages, such as SOT23s, yield the best thermal response times. Take care to account for thermal gradients between the heat source and the sensor, 14 and ensure that stray air currents across the sensor package do not interfere with measurement accuracy. Self-heating does not significantly affect measurement accuracy. Remote-sensor self-heating due to the diode current source is negligible. For the local diode, the worst-case error occurs when autoconverting at the fastest rate and simultaneously sinking maximum current at the ALERT output. For example, with VCC = 5.0V, at a 4Hz conversion rate and with ALERT sinking 1mA, the typical power dissipation is: 5.0V x 500µA + 0.4V x 1mA = 2.9mW θJ-A for the 8-pin µMAX package is about +221°C/W, so assuming no copper PCB heat sinking, the resulting temperature rise is: ΔT = 2.9mW x (+221°C/W) = +0.6409°C Even under nearly worst-case conditions, it is difficult to introduce a significant self-heating error. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Precision SMBus-Compatible Remote/Local Temperature Sensors with Overtemperature Alarms Chip Information PROCESS: BiCMOS TOP VIEW VCC 1 8 DXP 2 7 SDA DXN 3 6 ALERT OVERT 4 5 GND MAX6648 MAX6692 μMAX/SO* *SO PACKAGE AVAILABLE FOR MAX6692 ONLY.
