Remote Trip Point Temperature Sensor with Overtemperature Shutdown

NCT65
Remote Trip Point
Temperature Sensor with
Overtemperature Shutdown
Description
http://onsemi.com
The NCT65 is a low power temperature monitor housed in an
MSOP8 package. It monitors the temperature of a remote thermal
diode. The resulting temperature is then compared with fixed THERM
limits (70C and 85C) and if the resulting temperature is greater than
these limits, the open-drain THERM1 and THERM2 pins are asserted.
To prevent constant assertion and deassertion of the THERM outputs
the NCT65 has 5C of hysteresis.
The NCT65 supply range is 2.8 V to 3.6 V and features low supply
current making it suitable for portable applications.

Theory of Operation
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 an optional filter can be added. Its value
should be no more than 1,000 pF. See the Layout
Considerations section for more information on C1.
To measure DVBE, the operating current through the
sensor is switched among three related currents.
N1  I and N2  I are different multiples of the current, I.
The currents through the temperature diode are switched
between I and N1  I, giving DVBE1; and then between I and
N2  I, giving DVBE2. The temperature is then calculated
using the two DVBE measurements. This method also
cancels the effect of any series resistance on the temperature
measurement. The resulting waveform is passed through a
65 kHz low-pass filter to remove noise, and then to a
chopper-stabilized amplifier that performs the functions of
amplification and rectification of the waveform to produce
a dc voltage proportional to DVBE. This voltage is input into
two comparators with a reference voltage. If the voltage
exceeds the reference voltage then the THERM output
asserts low.
The NCT65 is a remote trip point temperature sensor for
use in a vide variety of applications from smart phones to
embedded systems. The remote temperature is measured by
the NCT65 and then compared with a fixed limit set by the
internal device reference. The limit for the THERM1 pin is
70C and the limit for the THERM2 pin is 85C. If either the
remote temperature exceeds the defined limits the open
drain THERM pins are asserted low. Each THERM pin self
clears when the temperature drops 5C below the THERM
limit. This is to prevent THERM jitter, where the
temperature hovers around the THERM limit.

Noise Filtering
For temperature sensors operating in noisy environments,
the industry standard practice was to place a capacitor across
the D+ and D− pins to help combat the effects of noise.
However, large capacitances affect the accuracy of the
temperature measurement, leading to a recommended
maximum capacitor value of 1,000 pF. Although this
capacitor reduces the noise, it does not eliminate it, making
it difficult to use the sensor in a very noisy environment.
The NCT65 has a major advantage over other devices
when it comes to eliminating the effects of noise on the
external sensor. The series resistance cancellation feature
allows a filter to be constructed between the external
temperature sensor and the part. The effect of any filter
resistance seen in series with the remote sensor is
automatically cancelled from the temperature result.
The construction of a filter allows the NCT65 and the
remote temperature sensor to operate in noisy environments.
The figure below shows a low-pass R-C-R filter, where
R = 100 W and C = 1 nF. This filtering reduces both
common-mode and differential noise.

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.
The technique used in the NCT65 is to measure the change
in VBE when the device is operated at three different
currents.
This is given by:
DV BE + (n f) kT
q
In(N)
(eq. 1)
Where:
k is Boltzmann’s constant (1.38  10–23).
q is the charge on the electron (1.6  10–19 Coulombs).
T is the absolute temperature in Kelvins.
N is the ratio of the two currents.
nf is the ideality factor of the thermal diode.

Remote Sensing Diode
capacitor across D+ and D− close to the NCT65. This
capacitance can effect the temperature measurement, so
ensure that any capacitance seen at D+ and D− is, at
maximum, 1,000 pF. This maximum value includes the
filter capacitance, plus any cable or stray capacitance
between the pins and the sensor diode.
The NCT65 is designed to work with substrate transistors
built into processors or with discrete transistors. Substrate
transistors are generally PNP types with the collector
connected to the substrate. Discrete types are either PNP or
NPN transistors connected as diodes (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+.

Layout Considerations
Digital boards can be electrically noisy environments, and
the NCT65 is measuring very small voltages from the
remote sensor, so care must be taken to minimize noise
induced at the sensor inputs. Take the following precautions:
 Place the NCT65 as close as possible to the remote
sensing diode. Provided that the worst noise sources,
that is, clock generators, data/address busses etc., are
avoided, this distance can be 4 to 8 inches.
 Route the D+ and D− tracks close together, in parallel,
with grounded guard tracks on each side. To minimize
inductance and reduce noise pickup, a 5 mil track width
and spacing is recommended. Provide a ground plane
under the tracks, if possible.
 Place a 0.1 mF bypass capacitor close to the VDD pin. In
extremely noisy environments, place an input filter

Application Circuit
The figure below shows a typical application circuit for
the NCT65, using an embedded transistor on a GPU to
measure the temperature. The THERM1 pin can be used to
alert the system and throttle the GPU. The THERM2 pin can
be used to shutdown the system if necessary. Both pins
require pullup resistors to VDD or an alternative supply (up
to 3.6 V).
