The ADT7420 is a high accuracy digital temperature sensor
offering breakthrough performance over a wide industrial range,
housed in a 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP package. It contains an internal
band gap reference, a temperature sensor, and a 16-bit ADC to
monitor and digitize the temperature to 0.0078°C resolution.
The ADC resolution, by default, is set to 13 bits (0.0625°C).
The ADC resolution is a user programmable mode that can be
changed through the serial interface.
The ADT7420 is guaranteed to operate over supply voltages from
2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operating at 3.3 V, the average supply current is typically 210 μA. The ADT7420 has a shutdown mode that powers
down the device and offers a shutdown current of typically 2.0 μA
at 3.3 V. The ADT7420 is rated for operation over the −40°C to
+150°C temperature range.
Pin A0 and Pin A1 are available for address selection, giving the
ADT7420 four possible I2C addresses. The CT pin is an opendrain output that becomes active when the temperature exceeds
a programmable critical temperature limit. The INT pin is also
an open-drain output that becomes active when the temperature exceeds a programmable limit. The INT pin and CT pin
can operate in comparator and interrupt event modes.

THEORY OF OPERATION
CIRCUIT INFORMATION
NORMAL MODE
The ADT7420 is a high accuracy digital temperature sensor that
uses a 16-bit ADC to monitor and digitize the temperature to
0.0078°C of resolution. The ADC resolution, by default, is set to
13 bits (0.0625°C). An internal temperature sensor generates a
voltage proportional to absolute temperature, which is compared to an internal voltage reference and input into a precision
digital modulator.
In normal mode (default power-up mode) the ADT7420 runs
an automatic conversion sequence. During this automatic conversion sequence, a conversion typically takes 240 ms to complete
and the ADT7420 is continuously converting. This means that
as soon as one temperature conversion is completed, another
temperature conversion begins. Each temperature conversion
result is stored in the temperature value registers and is available
through the I2C interface. In continuous conversion mode, the
read operation provides the most recent converted result.
The internal temperature sensor has high accuracy and linearity
over the entire rated temperature range without needing correction or calibration by the user.
The sensor output is digitized by a sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) modulator,
also known as the charge balance type analog-to-digital converter. This type of converter utilizes time-domain oversampling
and a high accuracy comparator to deliver 16 bits of resolution
in an extremely compact circuit.
CONVERTER DETAILS
The Σ-Δ modulator consists of an input sampler, a summing
network, an integrator, a comparator, and a 1-bit DAC. This
architecture creates a negative feedback loop and minimizes the
integrator output by changing the duty cycle of the comparator
output in response to input voltage changes. The comparator
samples the output of the integrator at a much higher rate than
the input sampling frequency. This oversampling spreads the
quantization noise over a much wider band than that of the
input signal, improving overall noise performance and
increasing accuracy.
The measured temperature value is compared with a critical
temperature limit (stored in the 16-bit TCRIT setpoint read/write
register), a high temperature limit (stored in the 16-bit THIGH setpoint read/write register), and a low temperature limit (stored
in the 16-bit TLOW setpoint read/write register). If the measured
value exceeds these limits, the INT pin is activated; and if it exceeds
the TCRIT limit, the CT pin is activated. The INT and CT pins are
programmable for polarity via the configuration register, and the
INT and CT pins are also programmable for interrupt mode via
the configuration register.
Setting Bit 6 to 0 and Bit 5 to 1 of the configuration register
(Register Address 0x03) enables the one-shot mode. When
this mode is enabled, the ADT7420 immediately completes
a conversion and then goes into shutdown mode.

AND VPTAT
Wait for a minimum of 240 ms after writing to the operation
mode bits before reading back the temperature from the temperature value register. This time ensures that the ADT7420
has time to power up and complete a conversion.

The conversion clock for the part is generated internally.
No external clock is required except when reading from
and writing to the serial port.
ONE-SHOT MODE
Σ-∆ MODULATOR
CLOCK
GENERATOR
On power-up, the first conversion is a fast conversion, taking
typically 6 ms. If the temperature exceeds 147°C, the CT pin
asserts low. If the temperature exceeds 64°C, the INT pin asserts
low. Fast conversion temperature accuracy is typically within ±5°C.
To obtain an updated temperature conversion, reset Bit 6 to 0
and Bit 5 to 1 in the configuration register (0x03).
The one-shot mode is useful when one of the circuit design
priorities is to reduce power consumption.

ADT7420
CT and INT Operation in One-Shot Mode
See Figure 12 for more information on one-shot CT pin
operation for TCRIT overtemperature events when one of the
limits is exceeded. Note that in interrupt mode, a read from
any register resets the INT and CT pins.
For the INT pin in the comparator mode, if the temperature drops
below the THIGH – THYST value or goes above the TLOW + THYST
value, a write to the operation mode bits (Bit 5 and Bit 6 of the
configuration register, Register Address 0x03) resets the INT pin.
For the CT pin in the comparator mode, if the temperature
drops below the TCRIT – THYST value, a write to the operation
mode bits (Bit 6 = 0 and Bit 5 = 1 of the configuration register,
Register Address 0x03) resets the CT pin (see Figure 12).
Note that when using one-shot mode, ensure that the refresh
rate is appropriate to the application being used.
1 SPS MODE
In this mode, the part performs one measurement per second.
A conversion takes only 60 ms typically, and it remains in
the idle state for the remaining 940 ms period. This mode is
enabled by writing 1 to Bit 6 and 0 to Bit 5 of the configuration
register (Register Address 0x03).
SHUTDOWN
The ADT7420 can be placed in shutdown mode by writing 1
to Bit 6 and 1 to Bit 5 of the configuration register (Register
Address 0x03), in which case the entire IC is shut down and
no further conversions are initiated until the ADT7420 is
taken out of shutdown mode. The ADT7420 can be taken
out of shutdown mode by writing 0 to Bit 6 and 0 to Bit 5 in
the configuration register (Register Address 0x03). The
ADT7420 typically takes 1 ms (with a 0.1 µF decoupling
capacitor) to come out of shutdown mode. The conversion
result from the last conversion prior to shutdown can still be
read from the ADT7420 even when it is in shutdown mode.
When the part is taken out of shutdown mode, the internal
clock is started and a conversion is initiated.
FAULT QUEUE
Bit 0 and Bit 1 of the configuration register (Register Address
0x03) are used to set up a fault queue. The queue can facilitate up
to four fault events to prevent false tripping of the INT and CT pins
when the ADT7420 is used in a noisy temperature environment.
The number of faults set in the queue must occur consecutively
to set the INT and CT outputs. For example, if the number of
faults set in the queue is four, then four consecutive temperature
conversions must occur with each result exceeding a temperature
limit in any of the limit registers before the INT and CT pins are
activated. If two consecutive temperature conversions exceed a
temperature limit and the third conversion does not, the fault
count is reset back to zero.

TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
TEMPERATURE CONVERSION FORMULAS
One LSB of the ADC corresponds to 0.0625°C in 13-bit mode
or 0.0078°C in 16-bit mode. The ADC can theoretically measure a
temperature range of 255°C, but the ADT7420 is guaranteed to
measure a low value temperature limit of −40°C to a high value
temperature limit of +150°C. The temperature measurement
result is stored in the 16-bit temperature value register and is
compared with the high temperature limits stored in the TCRIT
setpoint register and the THIGH setpoint register. It is also compared with the low temperature limit stored in the TLOW setpoint
register.
16-Bit Temperature Data Format
Positive Temperature = ADC Code (dec)/128
Temperature data in the temperature value register, the TCRIT
setpoint register, the THIGH setpoint register, and the TLOW setpoint
register are represented by a 13-bit twos complement word. The
MSB is the temperature sign bit. The three LSBs, Bit 0 to Bit 2, on
power-up, are not part of the temperature conversion result and
are flag bits for TCRIT, THIGH, and TLOW. Table 5 shows the 13-bit
temperature data format without Bit 0 to Bit 2.
The number of bits in the temperature data-word can be extended
to 16 bits, twos complement, by setting Bit 7 to 1 in the configuration register (Register Address 0x03). When using a 16-bit
temperature data value, Bit 0 to Bit 2 are not used as flag bits
and are, instead, the LSB bits of the temperature value. The poweron default setting has a 13-bit temperature data value.
Reading back the temperature from the temperature value register
requires a 2-byte read. Designers that use a 9-bit temperature
data format can still use the ADT7420 by ignoring the last four
LSBs of the 13-bit temperature value. These four LSBs are Bit 6
to Bit 3 in Table 5.

All registers are eight bits wide. The temperature value registers,
the status register, and the ID register are read-only. The software
reset is a write-only register. On power-up, the address pointer
register is loaded with 0x00 and points to the temperature value

TEMPERATURE VALUE REGISTERS
The temperature value consists of two bytes, one most significant byte and one least significant byte. These values can be
read in two separate 1-byte reads or in a single 2-byte read. For a
2-byte read, only the address of the most significant byte must be
loaded into the address pointer register. After the most significant byte is read, the address pointer is auto-incremented so that
the least significant byte can read within the same transaction.
Bit 0 to Bit 2 are event alarm flags for TLOW, THIGH, and TCRIT. When
the ADC is configured to convert the temperature to a 16-bit
digital value, then Bit 0 to Bit 2 are no longer used as flag bits
and are instead used as the LSBs for the extended digital value.

STATUS REGISTER
CONFIGURATION REGISTER
This 8-bit read-only register reflects the status of the overtemperature and undertemperature interrupts that can cause the CT and
INT pins to go active. It also reflects the status of a temperature
conversion operation. The interrupt flags in this register are
reset by a read operation to the status register and/or when the
temperature value returns within the temperature limits, including
hysteresis. The RDY bit is reset after a read from the temperature
value register. In one-shot and 1 SPS modes, the RDY bit is reset
after a write to the operation mode bits.
This 8-bit read/write register stores various configuration modes
for the ADT7420, including shutdown, overtemperature and
undertemperature interrupts, one-shot, continuous conversion,
interrupt pins polarity, and overtemperature fault queues.

Description
These two bits set the number of undertemperature/overtemperature faults that can occur before setting the
INT and CT pins. This helps to avoid false triggering due to temperature noise.
00 = 1 fault (default).
01 = 2 faults.
10 = 3 faults.
11 = 4 faults.
This bit selects the output polarity of the CT pin.
0 = active low.
1 = active high.
This bit selects the output polarity of the INT pin.
0 = active low.
1 = active high.
This bit selects between comparator mode and interrupt mode.
0 = interrupt mode
1 = comparator mode
These two bits set the operational mode for the ADT7420.
00 = continuous conversion (default). When one conversion is finished, the ADT7420 starts another.
01 = one shot. Conversion time is typically 240 ms.
10 = 1 SPS mode. Conversion time is typically 60 ms. This operational mode reduces the average current
consumption.
11 = shutdown. All circuitry except interface circuitry is powered down.
This bit sets up the resolution of the ADC when converting.
0 = 13-bit resolution. Sign bit + 12 bits gives a temperature resolution of 0.0625°C.
1 = 16-bit resolution. Sign bit + 15 bits gives a temperature resolution of 0.0078°C.

ADT7420
THIGH SETPOINT REGISTERS
The THIGH setpoint MSB and THIGH setpoint LSB registers store
the overtemperature limit value. An overtemperature event
occurs when the temperature value stored in the temperature
value register exceeds the value stored in this register. The INT
pin is activated if an overtemperature event occurs. The temperature is stored in twos complement format with the MSB being
the temperature sign bit.
When reading from this register, the eight most significant bits
(Bit 15 to Bit 8) are read first from Register Address 0x04 and
then the eight least significant bits (Bit 7 to Bit 0) are read from
Register Address 0x05 (THIGH setpoint LSB). Only Register
Address 0x04 (THIGH setpoint MSB) needs to be loaded into
the address pointer register because the address pointer autoincrements to Register Address 0x05 (THIGH setpoint LSB).
The default setting for the THIGH setpoint is 64°C.
TLOW SETPOINT REGISTERS
The TLOW setpoint MSB and TLOW setpoint LSB registers store
the undertemperature limit value. An undertemperature event
occurs when the temperature value stored in the temperature
value register is less than the value stored in this register. The
INT pin is activated if an undertemperature event occurs. The
temperature is stored in twos complement format with the MSB
being the temperature sign bit.
When reading from this register, the eight most significant bits
(Bit 15 to Bit 8) are read first from Register Address 0x06 and
then the eight least significant bits (Bit 7 to Bit 0) are read from
Register Address 0x07. Only Register Address 0x06 (TLOW setpoint
MSB) needs to be loaded into the address pointer register because
the address pointer auto-increments to Register Address 0x07
(TLOW setpoint LSB).
The default setting for the TLOW setpoint is 10°C.
TCRIT SETPOINT REGISTERS
The TCRIT setpoint MSB and TCRIT setpoint LSB registers store
the critical overtemperature limit value. A critical overtemperature event occurs when the temperature value stored in the
temperature value register exceeds the value stored in this
register. The CT pin is activated if a critical overtemperature
event occurs. The temperature is stored in twos complement
format with the MSB being the temperature sign bit.
When reading from this register, the eight most significant bits
(Bit 15 to Bit 8) are read first from Register Address 0x08 (TCRIT
setpoint MSB) and then the eight least significant bits (Bit 7 to
Bit 0) are read from Register Address 0x09 (TCRIT setpoint LSB).
Only Register Address 0x08 (TCRIT setpoint MSB) needs to be
loaded into the address pointer register because the address pointer
auto-increments to Register Address 0x09 (TCRIT setpoint LSB).
The default setting for the TCRIT limit is 147°C.

THYST SETPOINT REGISTER
ID REGISTER
This 8-bit read/write register stores the temperature hysteresis
value for the THIGH, TLOW, and TCRIT temperature limits. The
temperature hysteresis value is stored in straight binary format
using four LSBs. Increments are possible in steps of 1°C from
0°C to 15°C. The value in this register is subtracted from the
THIGH and TCRIT values and added to the TLOW value to implement hysteresis.
This 8-bit read-only register stores the manufacture ID in Bit 3

and is under the control of a master device.

Figure 13 shows a typical I2C interface connection.
SERIAL BUS ADDRESS
Like most I2C-compatible devices, the ADT7420 has a 7-bit
serial address. The five MSBs of this address for the ADT7420
are hardwired internally to 10010. Pin A1 and Pin A0 set the
two LSBs. These pins can be configured two ways, low and
high, to give four different address options. Table 20 shows
the different bus address options available. The recommended
pull-up resistor value on the SDA and SCL lines is 10 kΩ.

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, SDA, while the serial clock line, SCL, remains
high. This indicates that an address/data stream is going
to 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 a read/
write (R/W) bit. The R/W bit determines whether data is
written to, or read from, the slave device.
The peripheral with the address corresponding 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 then
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
writes to the slave device. If the R/W bit is a 1, the master
reads from the slave device.
Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock
pulses, eight bits of data followed by an acknowledge bit
from the receiver of data. 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, which can be interpreted as a stop signal.
When all data bytes have been read or written, stop conditions are established. In write mode, the master pulls the
data line high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop
condition. In read mode, the master device pulls the data
line high during the low period before the ninth clock
pulse. This is known as a no acknowledge. The master
takes 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.
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.

ADT7420
Data Sheet
For the THIGH setpoint, TLOW setpoint, and TCRIT setpoint
registers, it is possible to write to both the MSB and the LSB
registers in the same write transaction. Writing two bytes of
data to these registers requires the serial bus address, the data
register address of the MSB register written to the address
pointer register, followed by the two data bytes written to
the selected data register. This is shown in Figure 15.
WRITING DATA
It is possible to write either a single byte of data or two bytes to
the ADT7420, depending on which registers are to be written.
Writing a single byte of data requires the serial bus address, the
data register address written to the address pointer register,
followed by the data byte written to the selected data register.
This is shown in Figure 14.
If more than the required number of data bytes is written to a
register, the register ignores these extra data bytes. To write to
a different register, a start or repeated start is required.

the register that is going to be read from. In the case of reading
back from the 2-byte registers, the address pointer automatically
increments from the MSB register address to the LSB register
address.
READING DATA
Reading data from the ADT7420 is done in a single data byte
operation for the configuration register, the status register,
the THYST setpoint register, and the ID register. A two data byte
read operation is needed for the temperature value register,
THIGH setpoint register, TLOW setpoint register, and the TCRIT
setpoint register. Reading back the contents of an 8-bit register
similar to the configuration register is shown in Figure 16.
Reading back the contents of the temperature value register
is shown in Figure 17.
To read from another register, execute another write to the
address pointer register to set up the relevant register address.
Thus, block reads are not possible, that is, there is no I2C address
pointer auto-increment except when reading back from a 16-bit
register. If the address pointer register has previously been set
up with the address of the register that is going to receive a read
command, there is no need to repeat a write operation to set up
the register address again.
Reading back from any register first requires a single-byte write
operation to the address pointer register to set up the address of

RESET
GENERAL CALL
To reset the ADT7420 without having to reset the entire I C bus,
an explicit reset command is provided. This uses a particular
address pointer word as a command word to reset the part and
upload all default settings. The ADT7420 does not respond to
(does not acknowledge) I2C bus commands while the default
values upload for approximately 200 µs. Use the following
sequence to perform a reset:
2
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Write to the ADT7420 using the appropriate address.
Get acknowledge.
Set the register address to 0x2F.
Get acknowledge.
Apply stop condition.
Wait 200 µs for the part to reset its registers to the default
power-up settings.
When a master issues a slave address consisting of seven 0s with
the eighth bit (R/W bit) set to 0, this is known as the general call
address. The general call address is for addressing every device
connected to the I2C bus. The ADT7420 acknowledges this
address and reads in the following data byte.
If the second byte is 0x06, the ADT7420 is reset, completely
uploading all default values. The ADT7420 does not respond
to the I2C bus commands (do not acknowledge) while the
default values upload for approximately 200 µs.
The ADT7420 does not acknowledge any other general call
commands.

INT AND CT OUTPUTS
Comparator Mode
The INT and CT pins are open-drain outputs, and both pins
require a 10 kΩ pull-up resistor to VDD. The ADT7420 must
be fully powered up to VDD before reading INT and CT data.
In comparator mode, the INT pin returns to its inactive status
when the temperature drops below the THIGH − THYST limit or
rises above the TLOW + THYST limit.
UNDERTEMPERATURE AND OVERTEMPERATURE
DETECTION
Putting the ADT7420 into shutdown mode does not reset the
INT state in comparator mode.
The INT and CT pins have two undertemperature/overtemperature modes: comparator mode and interrupt mode. The interrupt
mode is the default power-up overtemperature mode. The INT
output pin becomes active when the temperature is greater than
the temperature stored in the THIGH setpoint register or less than
the temperature stored in the TLOW setpoint register. How this
pin reacts after this event depends on the overtemperature mode
selected.
Interrupt Mode
In interrupt mode, the INT pin goes inactive when any ADT7420
register is read. Once the INT pin is reset, it goes active again
only when the temperature is greater than the temperature stored
in the THIGH setpoint register or less than the temperature stored
in the TLOW setpoint register.
Placing the ADT7420 into shutdown mode resets the INT pin
in the interrupt mode.
Figure 18 illustrates the comparator and interrupt modes for
events exceeding the THIGH limit with both pin polarity settings.
Figure 19 illustrates the comparator and interrupt modes for
events exceeding the TLOW limit with both pin polarity settings.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
THERMAL RESPONSE TIME
POWERING FROM A SWITCHING REGULATOR
Thermal response is a function of the thermal mass of the
temperature sensor, but it is also heavily influenced by the mass
of the object the IC is mounted to. For example, a large PCB
containing large amounts of copper tracking can act as a large
heat sink and slow the thermal response. For a faster thermal
response, it is recommended to mount the sensor on as small a
PCB as possible.
Precision analog devices, such as the ADT7420 require a wellfiltered power source. If the ADT7420 is powered from a
switching regulator, noise may be generated above 50 kHz that
may affect the temperature accuracy specifications. To prevent
this, an RC filter should be used between the power supply and
ADT7420 VDD. The value of the components used should be
carefully considered to ensure that the peak value of the supply
noise is less than 1 mV. The RC filter should be mounted as far
away as possible from the ADT7420 to ensure that the thermal
mass is kept as low as possible.
Figure 10 shows the typical response time of less than two
seconds to reach 63.2% of its temperature span. The temperature value is read back as a 16-bit value through the digital
interface. The response time includes all delays incurred on
chip during signal processing.
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
SUPPLY DECOUPLING
The ADT7420 must have a decoupling capacitor connected
between VDD and GND; otherwise, incorrect temperature
readings will be obtained. A 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor such as
a high frequency ceramic type must be used and mounted as
close as possible to the VDD pin of the ADT7420.
If possible, the ADT7420 should be powered directly from the
system power supply. This arrangement, shown in Figure 20,
isolates the analog section from the logic-switching transients.
Even if a separate power supply trace is not available, generous
supply bypassing reduces supply-line induced errors. Local
supply bypassing consisting of a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is
critical for the temperature accuracy specifications to be
achieved.
0.1µF
For air or surface temperature measurements, take care to
isolate the package, leads, and exposed pad from ambient air
temperature. Use of a thermally conductive adhesive can help
to achieve a more accurate surface temperature measurement.
QUICK GUIDE TO MEASURING TEMPERATURE
The following is a quick guide for measuring temperature in
continuous conversion mode (default power-up mode). Execute
each step sequentially.
ADT7420
POWER
SUPPLY
1.
After powering up the ADT7420, verify the setup by
reading the device ID (Register Address 0x0B). It should
read 0xCB.
2.
After consistent consecutive readings are obtained from
Step 1, proceed to read the configuration register (0x03),
TCRIT (0x08, 0x09), THIGH (0x04, 0x05), and TLOW (0x06,
0x07) registers. Compare to the specified defaults in Table 6.
If all the readings match, the interface is operational.
3.
Write to the configuration register to set the ADT7420 to
the desired configuration.
4.
Read the temperature value MSB register, followed by
the temperature value LSB register. Both registers should
produce a valid temperature measurement.

LOGIC
CIRCUITS
The ADT7420 accurately measures and converts the temperature at the surface of its own semiconductor chip. Thermal
paths run through the leads, the exposed pad, as well as the
plastic package. When the ADT7420 is used to measure the
temperature of a nearby heat source, the thermal impedance
between the heat source and the ADT7420 must be considered
because this impacts the accuracy and thermal response of the
measurement.
