G788 Global Mixed-mode Technology ±1°C Remote and Local Temperature Sensor with SMBus Serial Interface Features General Description The G788 is a precise digital thermometer that reports the temperature of both a remote sensor and its own package. The remote sensor is a diode-connected transistor typically a low-cost, easily mounted 2N3904 NPN type that replace conventional thermistors or thermocouples. Remote accuracy is ±1°C with no calibration needed. It also has a build-in noise filtering function in remote sensor measuring the diode temperature. The remote channel can also measure the die temperature of other ICs, such as microprocessors, that contain an on-chip, diode-connected transistor. Two Channels: Measures Both Remote and Local Temperatures No Calibration Required Built-in Noise-Buster for Remote Sensor SMBus 2-Wire Serial Interface Programmable Under/Overtemperature Alarms Supports SMBus Alert Response Accuracy: ±1°C (-10°C to +80°C, remote) ±3°C (-40°C to +125°C, local) 320µA (typ) Average Supply Current During Conversion +3V to +3.6V Supply Range MSOP-8 Package Remote Temperature Measurment up to 160°C by using offset shifting method (see “Measure Remote Temperature Higher Than 127°C” section) The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard System Management Bus (SMBus) Write Byte, Read Byte, Send Byte, and Receive Byte commands to program the alarm thresholds and to read temperature data. The data format is 11bits plus sign, with each bit corresponding to 0.125°C, in two’s-complement format. Measurements can be done automatically and autonomously, with the conversion rate programmed by the user or programmed to operate in a single-shot mode. The adjustable rate allows the user to control the supply current drain. Applications Desktop and Notebook Computers Smart Battery Packs LAN Servers Industrial Controllers Central Office Telecom Equipment Test and Measurement Multi-Chip Modules The G788 and G788-1 have the same functions but different SMBus slave addresses. This allows for one of each to be on the bus at the same time. . Ordering Information ORDER NUMBER MARKING TEMP.
