NE1617A
Temperature monitor for microprocessor systems
Rev. 04 — 30 July 2009
Product data sheet
1. General description
The NE1617A is an accurate two-channel temperature monitor. It measures the
temperature of itself and the temperature of a remote sensor. The remote sensor is a
diode connected transistor. This can be in the form of either a discrete NPN/PNP, such as
the 2N3904/2N3906, or a diode connected PNP built into another die, such as is done on
some Intel microprocessors.
The temperature of both the remote and local sensors is stored in a register that can be
read via a 2-wire SMBus. The temperatures are updated at a rate that is programmable
via the SMBus (the average supply current is dependent upon the update rate—the faster
the rate, the higher the current).
In addition to the normal operation, which is to update the temperature at the programmed
rate, there is a one-shot mode that will force a temperature update.
There is also an alarm that senses either an overtemperature or undertemperature
condition. The trip points for this alarm are also programmable.
The device can have 1 of 9 addresses (determined by 2 address pins), so there can be up
to 9 of the NE1617A on the SMBus.
It can also be put in standby mode (in order to save power). This can be done either with
software (over the SMBus) or with hardware (using the STBY pin).

Temperature monitor for microprocessor systems
7. Functional description
The NE1617A contains an integrating A-to-D converter, an analog multiplexer, a status
register, digital data registers, SMBus interface, associated control logic and a local
temperature sensor or channel (refer to Figure 1 “Block diagram of NE1617A”). The
remote diode-type sensor or channel should be connected to the D+ and D− pins properly.
Temperature measurements or conversions are either automatically and periodically
activated when the device is in free-running mode (both STBY pin = HIGH, and the
configuration register bit 6 = LOW) or generated by one-shot command. The free-running
period is selected by changing the programmable data of the conversion rate register, as
described in Section 8.3.4. For each conversion, the multiplexer switches current sources
through the remote and local temperature sensors over a period of time, about 60 ms, and
the voltages across the diode-type sensors are sensed and converted into the
temperature data by the A-to-D converter. The resulting temperature data is then stored in
the temperature registers, in 8-bit two's complement word format and automatically
compared with the limits which have been programmed in the temperature limit registers.
Results of the comparison are reflected accordingly by the flags stored in the status
register, an out-of-limit condition will set the ALERT output pin to its LOW state. Because
both channels are automatically measured for each conversion, the results are updated
for both channels at the end of every successful conversion.
7.1 Remote diode selection
The method of the temperature measurement is based on the change of the diode VBE at
two different operating current levels given by:
KT
∆V BE = -------- × LN ( N )
q
(1)
where:
∆VBE = change in base emitter voltage drop at two current levels
K = Boltzman’s constant
T = absolute temperature in ° Kelvin
q = charge on the electron
LN = natural logarithm
N = ratio of the two currents
The NE1617A forces two well-controlled current sources of about 10 µA and 100 µA and
measures the remote diode VBE. The sensed voltage between two pins D+ and D− is
limited between 0.25 V and 0.95 V. The external diode must be selected to meet this
voltage range at these two current levels. The diode-connected PNP transistor provided
on the microprocessor is typically used, or the discrete diode-connected transistor
2N3904 or 2N3906 is recommended as an alternative.
Even though the NE1617A integrating A-to-D converter has a good noise performance,
using the average of 10 measurement cycles, high frequency noise filtering between D+
and D− should be considered. An external capacitor of 2200 pF typical (but not higher

than 3300 pF) connected between D+ and D− is recommended. Capacitance higher than
3300 pF will introduce measurement error due to the rise time of the switched current
source.
7.2 No calibration is required
As mentioned in Section 7.1, the NE1617A uses two well-controlled current sources of
10 : 1 ratio to measure the forward voltage of the diode (VBE). This technique eliminates
the diode saturation current (a heavily process and temperature dependent variable), and
results in the forward voltage being proportional to absolute temperature.
7.3 Address logic
The address pins of the NE1617A can be forced into one of three levels: LOW (GND),
HIGH (VDD), or ‘not connected’ (n.c.). Because the NE1617A samples and latches the
address pins at the starting of every conversion, it is suggested that those address pins
should be hard-wired to the logic applied, so that the logic is consistently existed at the
address pins. During the address sensing period, the device forces a current at each
address pin and compares the voltage developed across the external connection with the
predefined threshold voltage in order to define the logic level. If an external resistor is
used for the connection of the address, then its value should be less than 2 kΩ to prevent
the error in logic detection from happening. Resistors of 1 kΩ are recommended.
8. Temperature monitor with SMBus serial interface
8.1 Serial bus interface
The device can be connected to a standard 2-wire serial interface System Management
Bus (SMBus) as a slave device under the control of a master device, using two device
terminals SCLK and SDATA. The operation of the device to the bus is described with
details in the following sections.
8.2 Slave address
The device address is defined by the logical connections applied to the device pins ADD0
and ADD1. A list of selectable addresses are shown in Table 3. The device address can
be set to any one of those nine combinations and more than one device can reside on the
same bus without address conflict. Note that the state of the device address pins is
sampled and latched not only at power-up step, but also at starting point of every
conversion.

8.3 Registers
The device contains more than 9 registers. They are used to store the data of device
set-up and operation results. Depending on the bus communication (either read or write
operations), each register may be called by different names because each register may
have different sub-addresses or commands for read and write operations. For example,
the configuration register is called as WC for write mode and as RC for read mode.
Table 4 shows the names, commands and functions of all registers as well as the register
POR states.
Remark: Attempting to write to a read-command or read from a write-command will
produce an invalid result. The reserved registers are used for factory test purposes and
should not be written.

8.3.1 Low power standby modes
Upon POR, the device is reset to its normal free-running auto-conversion operation mode.
The device can be put into standby mode by either using hardware control (connect the
STBY pin to LOW for hardware standby mode) or using software control (set bit 6 of the
configuration register to HIGH for software standby mode). When the device is put in
either one of the standby modes, the supply current is reduced to less than 10 µA if there
is no SMBus activity, all data in the device registers are retained and the SMBus interface
is still alive to bus communication. However, there is a difference in the device ADC
conversion operation between hardware standby and software standby modes. In
hardware standby mode, the device conversion is inhibited and the one-shot command
does not initiate a conversion. In software standby mode, the one-shot command will
initiate a conversion for both internal and external channels.
If a hardware standby command is received when the device is in normal mode and a
conversion is in progress, the conversion cycle will stop and data in reading temperature
registers will not be updated.
8.3.2 Configuration register
The configuration register is used to mask the Alert interrupt and/or to put the device in
software standby mode. Only two bits of this register (bit 6 and bit 7) are used as listed in
Table 5. Bit 7 is used to mask the device ALERT output from Alert interruption when this
bit is set to logic 1, and bit 6 is used to activate the standby software mode when this bit is
set to logic 1.
This register can be written or read using the commands of registers named WC and RC
accordingly. Upon Power-On Reset (POR), both bits are reset to zero.

8.3.3 External and internal temperature registers
Results of temperature measurements after every ADC conversion are stored in two
registers: Internal Temp register (RIT) for internal or local diode temperature, and External
Temp register (RET) for external or remote diode temperature. These registers can be
only read over the SMBus. The reading temperature data is in 2's complement binary form
consisting of 7-bit data and 1-bit sign (MSB), with each data count represents 1 °C, and
the MSB bit is transmitted first over the serial bus. The contents of those two registers are
updated upon completion of each ADC conversion. Table 6 shows some values of the
temperature and data.

8.3.4 Conversion rate register
The conversion rate register is used to store programmable conversion data, which
defines the time interval between conversions in standard free-running auto-convert
mode. Table 7 shows all applicable data and rates for the device. Only three LSB bits of
the register are used and other bits are reserved for future use. This register can be
written to and read back over the SMBus using commands of the registers named WCR
and RCR, respectively. The POR default conversion data is 02h (0.25 Hz).
Notice that the average supply current, as well as the device power consumption, is
increased with the conversion rate.

8.3.5 Temperature limit registers
The device has four registers to be used for storing programmable temperature limits,
including the high limit and the low limit for each channel of the external and internal
diodes. Data of the temperature register (RIT and RET) for each channel are compared
with the contents of the temperature limit registers of the same channel, resulting in alarm
conditions. If measured temperature either equals or exceeds the corresponding
temperature limits, an Alert interrupt is asserted and the corresponding flag bit in the
status register is set. The temperature limit registers can be written to and read back using

commands of registers named WIHL, WILL, WEHL, WELL, RIHL, RILL, REHL, RELL,
accordingly. The POR default values are +127 °C (0111 1111) for the HIGH limit and
−55 °C (1100 1001) for the LOW limit.
8.3.6 One-shot command
The one-shot command is not actually a data register as such and a write operation to it
will initiate an ADC conversion. The send byte format of the SMBus, as described later,
with the use of OSHT command (0Fh), is used for this writing operation. In normal
free-running-conversion operation mode of the device, a one-shot command immediately
forces a new conversion cycle to begin. However, if a conversion is in progress when a
one-shot command is received, the command is ignored. In software standby mode the
one-shot command generates a single conversion and comparison cycle and then puts
the device back in its standby mode after the conversion. In hardware standby mode, the
one shot is inhibited.
8.3.7 Status register
The content of the status register reflects condition status resulting from all of these
activities: comparisons between temperature measurements and temperature limits, the
status of ADC conversion, and the hardware condition of the connection of external diode
to the device. Bit assignments and bit functions of this register are listed in Table 8. This
register can only be read using the command of register named RS. Upon POR, the
status of all flag bits are reset to zero. The status byte is cleared by any successful read of
the status register unless the fault condition persists.
Notice that any one of the fault conditions, except the conversion busy, also introduces an
Alert interrupt to the SMBus that will be described in Section 8.3.8. Also, whenever a
one-shot command is executed, the status byte should be read after the conversion is
completed, which is about 170 ms after the one-shot command is sent.

8.3.8 Alert interrupt
The ALERT output is used to signal Alert interruption from the device to the SMBus and is
active LOW. Because this output is an open-drain output, a pull-up resistor (10 kΩ typical)
to VDD is required, and slave devices can share a common interrupt line on the same
SMBus. An Alert interrupt is asserted by the device whenever any one of the fault
conditions, as described in Section 8.3.7 “Status register”, occurs: measured temperature
equals or exceeds corresponding temp limits, the remote diode is physically disconnected
from the device pins. Alert interrupt signal is latched and can only be cleared by reading

the Alert Response byte from the Alert Response Address, which is a special slave
address to the SMBus. The ALERT output cannot be reset by reading the device status
register.
The device was designed to accommodate the Alert interrupt detection capability of the
SMBus.1 Basically, the SMBus provides Alert response interrupt pointers in order to
identify the slave device which has caused the Alert interrupt. The 7-bit Alert response
slave address is 0001 100 and the Alert response byte reflects the slave address of the
device which has caused Alert interrupt. Bit assignments of the Alert response byte are
listed in Table 9. The ALERT output will be reset to HIGH state upon reading the Alert
response slave address unless the fault condition persists.

8.4 Power-up default condition
Upon power-up reset (power is switched off-on), the NE1617A goes into this default
condition:
• Interrupt latch is cleared, the ALERT output is pulled HIGH by the external pull-up
resistor.
• The auto-conversion rate is at 0.25 Hz; conversion rate data is 02h.
• Temperature limits for both channels are +127 °C for high limit, and −55 °C for low
limit.
• Command pointer register is set to ‘00’ for quickly reading the RIT.
8.5 Fault detection
The NE1617A has a fault detector to the diode connection. The connection is checked
when a conversion is initiated and the proper flags are set if the fault condition has
occurred.

8.6 SMBus interface
The device can communicate over a standard 2-wire serial interface System Management
Bus (SMBus) using the device pins SCLK and SDATA. The device employs four standard
SMBus protocols: write byte, read byte, send byte and receive byte. Data formats of those
protocols are shown in Figure 3 with following notifications:
• The SMBus master initiates data transfer by establishing a START condition (S) and
terminates data transfer by generating a STOP condition (P).
• Data is sent over the serial bus in sequence of 9 clock pulses according to each 8-bit
data byte followed by 1-bit status of the device acknowledgement.
•
•
•
•
The 7-bit slave address is equivalent to the selected address of the device.
The command byte is equivalent to the selected command of the device register.
The ‘send byte’ format is often used for the one-shot conversion command.
The ‘receive byte’ format is used for quicker transfer data from a device reading
register that was previously selected by a read byte format.

Typical application circuit
9.1 How do D+, D− work?
The NE1617A forces two well-controlled current sources of about 10 µA and 100 µA
measures the remote diode VBE. The diode-controlled PNP transistor provided on the
microprocessor is typically used, or the discrete diode-connected transistor 2N3904 or
2N3906. Please refer to Section 7.1 “Remote diode selection”.
9.2 What is the difference using diode and transistor?
Traditional 2-pin diode has different characteristic and has fairly high series resistance that
will not work with the NE1617A. The NE1617A works with diode connected transistor,
which has lower series resistance. Furthermore, the non-ideality factor is different for
different diode-connected transistors because of process differences. Therefore, in order
to achieve the specified accuracy, you must use either 2N3904 or 2N3906 discrete
diode-connected transistor.
9.3 How is error reduced when necessary to use a wire instead of the
PCB trace?
A shielded twisted pair cable is recommended (see Figure 16). The NE1617A guarantees
temperature error of ±3 °C and ±5 °C from 0 °C to 100 °C and from 0 °C to 120 °C,
respectively, on the remote diode. If higher accuracy is needed, use the newer SA56004,
which has a temp error of ±1 °C on the remote diode.

The value of VDD below which the internal A/D converter is disabled. This is designed to be a minimum of 200 mV above the power-on
reset. During the time that it is disabled, the temperature that is in the ‘read temperature registers’ will remain at the value that it was
before the ADC was disabled. This is done to eliminate the possibility of reading unexpected false temperatures due to the A/D
converter not working correctly due to low voltage. In case of power-up (rising VDD), the reading that is stored in the ‘read temperature
registers’ will be the default value of 0 °C. As soon as VDD has risen to the value of UVLO, the ADC will function correctly and normal
temperatures will be read.

Due to the bias current, any pull-up/pull-down resistors should be ≤ 2 kΩ.

+66.7 °C, the ADC may report +66 °C, +67 °C or +68 °C (due to the quantization error plus the −0.5 °C offset used for rounding up) and
still be within the guaranteed ±1 °C error limits for the +60 °C to +100 °C temperature range.

13. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
13.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
13.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
13.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:
• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities

13.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 14) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 15 and 16

times.

14. Mounting
14.1 Printed-circuit board layout consideration
Because the NE1617A is used to measure a very small voltage in the range of microvolts
from the remote sensor, care must be taken to minimize noise induced at the sensor
inputs, especially in the computer motherboard noisy environment. The following
precautions should be considered:
• Place the NE1617A as close as possible to the remote sensor. It can be from 4 inches
to 8 inches, as long as the worst noise sources such as clock generator, data and
address buses, CRTs are avoided.
• Route the D+ and D− lines in parallel and close together with ground guards enclosed
(refer to Figure 15).
• Leakage currents due to printed-circuit board contamination could affect the
temperature accuracy and must be considered. Error can be introduced by the
leakage current as shown on the characteristics curve Figure 6 “Temperature error
versus printed-circuit board leakage resistance”.
• Use wide tracks to reduce inductance and noise pickup that may be introduced by
narrow ones. The width of 10 mil and space of 10 mil are recommended.
• Place a bypass capacitor of 0.1 µF close to the VDD pin and an input filter capacitor of
2200 pF close to the D+ and D− pins.
• If the remote sensor is operating in a noisy environment and located several feet away
from the NE1617A, a shielded twisted pair cable is recommended. Make sure the
shield of the cable is connected to the NE1617A ground pin (GND), and leave the
shield at the remote end unconnected. Shield connecting to ground of both ends
