GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADT7411 1 combines a 10-bit temperature-to-digital
converter and a 10-bit 8-channel ADC in a 16-lead QSOP. This
includes a band gap temperature sensor and a 10-bit ADC to
monitor and digitize the temperature reading to a resolution of
0.25°C. The ADT7411 operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V
supply. The input voltage on the ADC channels has a range of
0 V to 2.25 V and the input bandwidth is dc. The reference for
the ADC channels is derived internally. The ADT7411 provides
two serial interface options: a 4-wire serial interface compatible
with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP interface standards,
and a 2-wire SMBus/I2C interface. It features a standby mode
that is controlled via the serial interface.
The ADT7411’s wide supply voltage range, low supply current,
and SPI-/I2C-compatible interface make it ideal for a variety of
applications, including PCs, office equipment, and domestic
appliances.

Description
Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel. Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to VDD.
Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel. Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to VDD.
No Connection.
SPI—Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When CS goes low, it
enables the input register and data is transferred in on the rising edges and out on the falling edges of the subsequent
serial clocks. It is recommended that this pin be tied high to VDD when operating the serial interface in I2C mode.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Part. Analog and digital ground.
Positive Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The supply should be decoupled to ground.
Positive Connection to External Temperature Sensor/Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel.
Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to 5 V.
Negative Connection to External Temperature Sensor/Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel.
Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to 5 V.
Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel. Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to VDD.
Overlimit Interrupt. The output polarity of this pin can be set to give an active low or active high interrupt when
temperature, VDD, or AIN limits are exceeded. Default is active low. Open-drain output needs a pull-up resistor.
DOUT—SPI Serial Data Output. Logic output. Data is clocked out of any register at this pin. Data is clocked out on the
falling edge of SCLK. Open-drain output needs a pull-up resistor.
ADD—I2C Serial Bus Address Selection Pin. Logic input. A low on this pin gives the Address 1001 000, while leaving it
floating gives the Address 1001 010 and setting it high gives the Address 1001 011. The I2C address set up by the
ADD pin is not latched by the device until after this address has been sent twice. On the eighth SCL cycle of the
second valid communication, the serial bus address is latched in. Any subsequent changes on this pin have no
effect on the I2C serial bus address.
SDA—I2C Serial Data Input. I2C serial data to be loaded into the part’s registers is provided on this input. An opendrain configuration needs a pull-up resistor.
DIN—SPI Serial Data Input. Serial data to be loaded into the part’s registers is provided on this input. Data is
clocked into a register on the rising edge of SCLK. An open-drain configuration needs a pull-up resistor.
Serial Clock Input. This is the clock input for the serial port. The serial clock is used to clock data out of any register
of the ADT7411 and to clock data into any register that can be written to. An open-drain configuration needs a pullup resistor.
Analog Input. Single-ended analog input channel. Input range is 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to VDD.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy
Relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL) is a measure of
the maximum deviation, in LSBs, from a straight line passing
through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. A typical
INL vs. code plot can be seen in Figure 10.
Total Unadjusted Error (TUE)
Total unadjusted error is a comprehensive specification that
includes the sum of the relative accuracy error, gain error, and
offset error under a specified set of conditions.
Offset Error
This is a measure of the offset error of the ADC. It can be
negative or positive. It is expressed in mV.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the span error of the ADC. It is the
deviation in slope of the actual ADC transfer characteristic
from the ideal expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Offset Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in offset error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in ppm of full-scale range/°C.
Gain Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in ppm of full-scale range/°C.
Long-Term Temperature Drift
This is a measure of the change in temperature error with the
passage of time. It is expressed in degrees Celsius. The concept
of long-term stability has been used for many years to describe
by what amount an IC’s parameter would shift during its
lifetime. This is a concept that has been typically applied to both
voltage references and monolithic temperature sensors.
Unfortunately, ICs cannot be evaluated at room temperature
(25°C) for 10 years or so to determine this shift. As a result,
manufacturers typically perform accelerated lifetime testing of
ICs by operating ICs at elevated temperatures (between 125°C
and 150°C) over a shorter period (typically between 500 hours
and 1,000 hours). Because of this operation, the lifetime of an
IC is significantly accelerated due to the increase in rates of
reaction within the semiconductor material.
DC Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
The power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is defined as the ratio
of the power in the ADC output at full-scale frequency f to the
power of a 100 mV sine wave applied to the VDD supply of
frequency fs.
PSRR (dB) = 10 log(Pf/Pfs)
where:
Pf is the power at frequency f in ADC output.
Pfs is the power at frequency fs coupled into the VDD supply.
Round Robin
This term describes the ADT7411 cycling through the available
measurement channels in sequence, taking a measurement on
each channel.

ADT7411
THEORY OF OPERATION
After the power-up calibration routine, the ADT7411 goes into
idle mode. In this mode, the device is not performing any
measurements and is fully powered up.
To begin monitoring, write to the Control Configuration 1
register (Address 18h) and set Bit C0 = 1. The ADT7411 goes
into its power-up default measurement mode, which is round
robin. The device performs measurements in the following
channel sequence:
1. VDD channel
2. Internal temperature sensor channel
3. External temperature sensor channel (or AIN1 and AIN2 if
external diode is not set up)
The dual serial interface defaults to the I2C protocol on powerup. To select and lock in the SPI protocol, follow the selection
process as described in the Serial Interface Selection section.
The I2C protocol cannot be locked in, while the SPI protocol on
selection is automatically locked in. The interface can only be
switched back to I2C when the device is powered off and on.
When using I2C, the CS pin should be tied to either VDD or GND.
There are a number of different operating modes on the
ADT7411 devices and all of them can be controlled by the
configuration registers. These features consist of enabling and
disabling interrupts, polarity of the INT/INT pin, enabling and
disabling the averaging on the measurement channels, SMBus
timeout, and software reset.
4. AIN3
POWER-UP CALIBRATION
5. AIN4
It is recommended that no communication to the part is initiated
until approximately 5 ms after VDD has settled to within 10% of its
final value. It is generally accepted that most systems take a
maximum of 50 ms to power up. Power-up time is directly
related to the amount of decoupling on the voltage supply line.
6. AIN5
7. AIN6
8. AIN7
9. AIN8
Once it finishes taking measurements on the AIN8 channel, the
device immediately loops back to start taking measurements on
the VDD channel and repeats the same cycle as before. This loop
continues until the monitoring is stopped by resetting Bit C0 of
the Control Configuration 1 register to 0. It is also possible to
continue monitoring as well as switching to single-channel
mode by writing to the Control Configuration 2 register
(Address 19h) and setting Bit C4 = 1. Further explanations of
the single-channel and round robin measurement modes are
given in the Single-Channel Measurement and Round Robin
Measurement sections. All measurement channels have
averaging enabled on them at power-up. Averaging forces the
device to take an average of 16 readings before giving a final
measured result. To disable averaging and consequently
decrease the conversion time by a factor of 16, set C5 = 1 in
the Control Configuration 2 register.
There are eight single-ended analog input channels on the
ADT7411: AIN1 to AIN8. AIN1 and AIN2 are multiplexed with
the external temperature sensors D+ and D− terminals. Bits C1
and C2 of the Control Configuration 1 register (Address 18h)
are used to select between AIN1/2 and the external temperature
sensor. The input range on the analog input channels is
dependent on whether the ADC reference used is the internal
VREF or VDD. To meet linearity specifications, it is recommended
that the maximum VDD value is 5 V. Bit C4 of the Control
Configuration 3 register is used to select between the internal
reference and VDD as the analog inputs’ ADC reference.
During the 5 ms after VDD has settled, the part is performing a
calibration routine; any communication to the device interrupts
this routine and can cause erroneous temperature measurements.
If it is not possible to have VDD at its nominal value by the time
50 ms elapses or that communication to the device starts prior
to VDD settling, then it is recommended that a measurement be
taken on the VDD channel before a temperature measurement
is taken. The VDD measurement is used to calibrate out any
temperature measurement error due to different supply
voltage values.
CONVERSION SPEED
The internal oscillator circuit used by the ADC has the
capability to output two different clock frequencies. This means
that the ADC is capable of running at two different speeds when
doing a conversion on a measurement channel. Therefore, the
time taken to perform a conversion on a channel can be reduced
by setting C0 of the Control Configuration 3 register
(Address 1Ah). This increases the ADC clock speed from
1.4 Hz to 22 kHz. At the higher clock speed, the analog filters
on the D+ and D− input pins (external temperature sensor) are
switched off. This is why the power-up default setting is to have
the ADC working at the slow speed. The typical times for fast
and slow ADC speeds are given in Table 1.
The ADT7411 powers up with averaging on. This means every
channel is measured 16 times and internally averaged to reduce
noise. The conversion time can also be reduced by turning the
averaging off. This is done by setting Bit C5 of the Control
Configuration 2 register (Address 19h) to a 1.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

ANALOG INPUTS
A
The ADT7411 offers eight single-ended analog input channels.
The analog input range is from 0 V to 2.25 V or 0 V to VDD. To
maintain the linearity specification, it is recommended that the
maximum VDD value be set at 5 V. Selection between the two
input ranges is done by Bit C4 of the Control Configuration 3
register (Address 1Ah). Setting this bit to 0 sets up the analog
input ADC reference to be sourced from the internal voltage
reference of 2.25 V. Setting the bit to 1 sets up the ADC
reference to be sourced from VDD.

When the ADC eventually goes into conversion phase (see
Figure 22) SW2 opens and SW1 moves to Position B, causing
the comparator to become unbalanced. The control logic and
the DAC are used to add and subtract fixed amounts of charge
from the sampling capacitor to bring the comparator back into
a balanced condition. When the comparator is rebalanced, the
conversion is complete. The control logic generates the ADC
output code. Figure 24 shows the ADC transfer function for

To work out the voltage on any analog input channel, the
following method is used.
1 LSB = Reference (V)/1024
Convert the value read back from the AIN value register into
decimal.
AIN Voltage = AIN Value (d) × LSB Size
where d is the decimal.
Example:
Internal reference used. Therefore, VREF = 2.25 V.
AIN Value = 512d
1 LSB Size = 2.25 V/1024 = 2.197 × 10−3
The measured results from the AIN inputs are compared with
the AIN VHIGH (greater than comparison) and VLOW (less than or
equal to comparison) limits. An interrupt occurs if the AIN
inputs exceed or equal the limit registers. These voltage limits
are stored in on-chip registers. Note that the limit registers are
eight bits long while the AIN conversion result is 10 bits long.
If the voltage limits are not masked out, any out-of-limit
comparisons generate flags that are stored in the Interrupt
Status 1 register (Address 00h) and one or more out-of-limit
results will cause the INT/INT output to pull either high or
low, depending on the output polarity setting. It is good design
practice to mask out interrupts for channels that are of no
concern to the application. Figure 27 shows the interrupt
structure for the ADT7411. It shows a block diagram
representation of how the various measurement channels
affect the INT/INT pin.

Analog Input ESD Protection
Figure 26 shows the input structure that provides ESD protection on any of the analog input pins. The diode provides the
main ESD protection for the analog inputs. Care must be taken
that the analog input signal never drops below the GND rail by
more than 200 mV. If this happens, the diode becomes forward
biased and starts conducting current into the substrate. The
4 pF capacitor is the typical pin capacitance and the resistor is a
lumped component made up of the on resistance of the
multiplexer switch.
The ADT7411 contains an ADC with special input signal
conditioning to enable operation with external and on-chip
diode temperature sensors. When the ADT7411 is operating in
single-channel mode, the ADC continually processes the
measurement taken on one channel only. This channel is
preselected by Bit C0 to Bit C3 in the Control Configuration 2
register (Address 19h). When in round robin mode, the analog
input multiplexer sequentially selects the VDD input channel,
on-chip temperature sensor to measure its internal temperature,
the external temperature sensor, or an AIN channel, and then
the rest of the AIN channels. These signals are digitized by the
ADC and the results stored in the various value registers.
Rev. B | Page 15 of 36
ADT7411
The measured results from the temperature sensors are
compared with the internal and external THIGH and TLOW
limits. These temperature limits are stored in on-chip registers.
If the temperature limits are not masked out, any out-of-limit
comparisons generate flags that are stored in Interrupt Status 1
register. One or more out-of-limit results causes the INT/INT
output to pull either high or low, depending on the output
polarity setting.
Theoretically, the temperature measuring circuit can measure
temperatures from –128°C to +127°C with a resolution of
0.25°C. However, temperatures outside TA are outside the
guaranteed operating temperature range of the device.
Temperature measurement from –128°C to +127°C is
possible using an external sensor.
Temperature measurement is initiated by three methods. The
first method is applicable when the part is in single-channel
measurement mode. The temperature is measured 16 times and
internally averaged to reduce noise. In single-channel mode, the
part is continuously monitoring the selected channel, that is, as
soon as one measurement is taken, another one is started on the
same channel. The total time to measure a temperature channel
with the ADC operating at slow speed is typically 11.4 ms
(712 μs × 16) for the internal temperature sensor and 24.22 ms
(1.51 ms × 16) for the external temperature sensor. The new
temperature value is stored in two 8-bit registers and ready for
reading by the I2C or SPI interface. The user has the option
of disabling the averaging by setting Bit 5 in the Control
Configuration 2 register (Address 19h). The ADT7411
defaults on power-up with the averaging enabled.
The second method is applicable when the part is in round
robin measurement mode. The part measures both the internal
and external temperature sensors as it cycles through all possible
measurement channels. The two temperature channels are
measured each time the part runs a round robin sequence.
In round robin mode, the part is continuously measuring all
channels.
Temperature measurement is also initiated after every read
or write to the part when the part is in either single-channel
measurement mode or round robin measurement mode. Once
serial communication has started, any conversion in progress
is stopped and the ADC is reset. Conversion starts again
immediately after the serial communication has finished.
The temperature measurement proceeds normally as
previously described.

The ADT7411 also has the capability of monitoring its own
power supply. The part measures the voltage on its VDD pin to a
resolution of 10 bits. The resulting value is stored in two 8-bit
registers, with the 2 LSBs stored in register Address 03h and the
8 MSBs stored in register Address 06h. This allows the user to
have the option of just doing a 1-byte read if 10-bit resolution is
not important. The measured result is compared with the VHIGH
and VLOW limits. If the VDD interrupt is not masked out then any
out-of-limit comparison generates a flag in the Interrupt Status 2
register, and one or more out-of-limit results causes the
INT/INT output to pull either high or low, depending on the
output polarity setting.
The ADT7411 has an on-chip 1.125 V band gap reference that
is gained up by a switched capacitor amplifier to give an output
of 2.25 V. The amplifier is powered up for the duration of the
device monitoring phase and is powered down once monitoring
is disabled. This saves on current consumption. The internal
reference is used as the reference for the ADC.
Measuring the voltage on the VDD pin is regarded as monitoring
a channel along with the internal, external, and AIN channels.
The user can select the VDD channel for single-channel
measurement by setting Bit C4 = 1 and by setting Bit C0 to
Bit C2 to all 0s in the Control Configuration 2 register.
When measuring the VDD value, the reference for the ADC is
sourced from the internal reference. Table 5 shows the data
format. As the maximum VDD voltage measurable is 7 V,
internal scaling is performed on the VDD voltage to match the
2.25 V internal reference value. The following is an example of
how the transfer function works.
1 LSB = ADC Reference/210 = 2.25/1024 = 2.197 mV
Scale Factor = Full Scale VCC/ADC Reference = 7/2.25 = 3.11

= 5/(3.11 × 2.197 mV)

Upon power-up, the ADT7411 goes into round robin mode but
monitoring is disabled. Setting Bit C0 of the Configuration 1
register to 1 enables conversions. It sequences through all
available channels, taking a measurement from each in the
following order: VDD, internal temperature sensor, external
temperature sensor/(AIN1 and AIN2), AIN3, AIN4, AIN5,
AIN6, AIN7, and AIN8. Pin 7 and Pin 8 can be configured as
either external temperature sensor pins or standalone analog
input pins. Once conversion is completed on the AIN8 channel,
the device loops around for another measurement cycle.
This method of taking a measurement on all the channels in
one cycle is called round robin. Setting Bit 4 of the Control
Configuration 2 register (Address 19h) disables the round robin
mode and in turn sets up the single-channel mode. The singlechannel mode is where only one channel, for example, the
internal temperature sensor, is measured in each conversion cycle.
The time taken to monitor all channels will normally not be of
interest, as the most recently measured value can be read at any
time. For applications where the round robin time is important,
typical times at 25°C are given in Table 1.

Single-Channel Measurement
Setting Bit C4 of the Control Configuration 2 register enables
the single-channel mode and allows the ADT7411 to focus on
one channel only. A channel is selected by writing to Bit C0 to
Bit C3 in the Control Configuration 2 register. For example,
to select the VDD channel for monitoring, write to the Control
Configuration 2 register and set C4 to 1 (if not done so already),
then write all 0s to Bit C0 to Bit C3. All subsequent conversions
are done on the VDD channel only. To change the channel selection
to the internal temperature channel, write to the Control
Configuration 2 register and set C0 = 1. When measuring in
single-channel mode, conversions on the channel selected occur
directly after each other. Any communication to the ADT7411
stops the conversions, but they are restarted once the read or
write operation is completed.

ADT7411
Temperature Measurement Method
Internal Temperature Measurement
environment, C1 is provided as a noise filter. See the Layout
Considerations section for more information on C1.
The ADT7411 contains an on-chip, band gap temperature
sensor whose output is digitized by the on-chip ADC. The
temperature data is stored in the internal temperature value
register. As both positive and negative temperatures can be
measured, the temperature data is stored in twos complement
format, as shown in Table 6. The thermal characteristics of the
measurement sensor could change and therefore an offset is
added to the measured value to enable the transfer function to
match the thermal characteristics. This offset is added before
the temperature data is stored. The offset value used is stored in
the internal temperature offset register.
To measure ΔVBE, the sensor is switched between operating
currents of I, and N × I. The resulting waveform is passed
through a low-pass filter to remove noise, then to a chopperstabilized amplifier that performs the functions of amplification
and rectification of the waveform to produce a dc voltage
proportional to ΔVBE. This voltage is measured by the ADC
to give a temperature output in 10-bit twos complement
format. To further reduce the effects of noise, digital filtering is
performed by averaging the results of 16 measurement cycles.
External Temperature Measurement
Digital boards can be electrically noisy environments, and care
must be taken to protect the analog inputs from noise, particularly
when measuring the very small voltages from a remote diode
sensor. The following precautions should be taken:
The ADT7411 can measure the temperature of one external
diode sensor or diode-connected transistor.
The forward voltage of a diode or diode-connected transistor,
operated at a constant current, exhibits a negative temperature
coefficient of about −2 mV/°C. Unfortunately, the absolute
value of VBE varies from device to device, and individual
calibration is required to null this out, so the technique is
unsuitable for mass production.
The technique used in the ADT7411 is to measure the change
in VBE when the device is operated at two different currents.
Layout Considerations
1.
Place the ADT7411 as close as possible to the remote
sensing diode. Provided that the worst noise sources, such
as clock generators, data/address buses, and CRTs, are
avoided, this distance can be 4 inches to 8 inches.
2.
Route the D+ and D− tracks close together, in parallel,
with grounded guard tracks on each side. Provide a ground
plane under the tracks if possible.
3.
Use wide tracks to minimize inductance and reduce noise
pickup. A 10 mil track minimum width and spacing is
recommended (see Figure 28).
This is given by

Figure 23 shows the input signal conditioning used to measure
the output of an external temperature sensor. This figure shows
the external sensor as a substrate transistor, provided for
temperature monitoring on some microprocessors, but it
could equally well be a discrete transistor.
Figure 28. Arrangement of Signal Tracks
4.
If a discrete transistor is used, the collector is not grounded and
should be linked to the base. If a PNP transistor is used, the
base is connected to the D− input and the emitter to the D+
input. If an NPN transistor is used, the emitter is connected to
the D− input and the base to the D+ input. A 2N3906 is
recommended as the external transistor.
To prevent ground noise from 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. As the sensor is operating in a noisy
Rev. B | Page 18 of 36
Try to minimize the number of copper/solder joints, which
can cause thermocouple effects. Where copper/solder
joints are used, make sure that they are in both the D+ and
D− path and at the same temperature.
Thermocouple effects should not be a major problem as
1°C corresponds to about 240 μV, and thermocouple
voltages are about 3 μV/°C of temperature difference.
Unless there are two thermocouples with a big temperature
differential between them, thermocouple voltages should
be much less than 200 mV.
ADT7411
Interrupts
Place 0.1 μF bypass and 2200 pF input filter capacitors
close to the ADT7411.
6.
If the distance to the remote sensor is more than 8 inches,
the use of twisted-pair cable is recommended. This works
up to about 6 feet to 12 feet.
7.
For long distances (up to 100 feet) use shielded twistedpair cable, such as Belden #8451 microphone cable.
Connect the twisted pair to D+ and D− and the shield to
GND close to the ADT7411. Leave the remote end of the
shield unconnected to avoid ground loops.
Because the measurement technique uses switched current
sources, excessive cable and/or filter capacitance can affect the
measurement. When using long cables, the filter capacitor can
be reduced or removed.
Cable resistance can also introduce errors. A series resistance of
1 Ω introduces about 0.5°C error.
Temperature Value Format
One LSB of the ADC corresponds to 0.25°C. The ADC can
theoretically measure a temperature span of 255°C. The internal
temperature sensor is guaranteed to a low value limit of −40°C.
It is possible to measure the full temperature span using the
external temperature sensor. The temperature data format is
shown in Table 6.
The result of the internal or external temperature measurements is
stored as twos complement format in the temperature value
registers and is compared with limits programmed into the
internal or external high and low registers.

The measured results from the internal temperature sensor,
external temperature sensor, VDD pin, and AIN inputs are
compared with their THIGH/VHIGH (greater than comparison)
and TLOW/VLOW (less than or equal to comparison) limits. An
interrupt occurs if the measurement exceeds or equals the limit
registers. These limits are stored in on-chip registers. Note that
the limit registers are eight bits long while the conversion results
are 10 bits long. If the limits are not masked out, then any outof-limit comparisons generate flags that are stored in the
Interrupt Status 1 register (Address 00h) and the Interrupt
Status 2 register (Address 01h). One or more out-of limit results
causes the INT/INT output to pull either high or low depending
on the output polarity setting. It is good design practice to mask
out interrupts for channels that are of no concern to the
application.
Figure 27 shows the interrupt structure for the ADT7411.
It gives a block diagram representation of how the various
measurement channels affect the INT/INT pin.
ADT7411 REGISTERS
The ADT7411 contains registers that are used to store the
results of external and internal temperature measurements, VDD
value measurements, analog input measurements, high and low
temperature limits, supply voltage and analog input limits,
configure multipurpose pins, and generally control the device.
See Table 7 for a detailed description of these registers.
The register map is divided into registers of 8 bits. Each register
has its own individual address but some consist of data that is
linked with other registers. These registers hold the 10-bit
conversion results of measurements taken on the temperature,
VDD, and AIN channels. For example, the MSBs of the VDD
measurement are stored in Register Address 06h while the two
LSBs are stored in Register Address 03h. The link involved
between these types of registers is that when the LSB register is
read first, the MSB registers associated with that LSB register
are locked out to prevent any updates. To unlock these MSB
registers the user has only to read any one of them, which has
the effect of unlocking all previously locked out MSB registers.
Therefore, for the example given above, if Register 03h is read
first, MSB Register 06h and Register 07h would be locked out to
prevent any updates to them. If Register 06h is read this register,
then Register 07h would be subsequently unlocked.

If an MSB register is read first, its corresponding LSB register is
not locked out, thus leaving the user with the option of just
reading back 8 bits (MSB) of a 10-bit conversion result. Reading
an MSB register first does not lock out other MSB registers, and
likewise reading an LSB register first does not lock out other
LSB registers.

This register contains the offset value for the internal
temperature channel. A twos complement number can be
written to this register, which is then added to the measured
result before it is stored or compared to limits. In this way, a
sort of one-point calibration can be done whereby the whole
transfer function of the channel can be moved up or down.
From a software point of view, this may be a very simple
method to vary the characteristics of the measurement channel
if the thermal characteristics change. Because it is an 8-bit
register, the temperature resolution is 1°C.

There are two serial interfaces that can be used on this part: I C
and SPI. The device powers up with the serial interface in I2C
mode, but it is not locked into this mode. To stay in I2C mode, it
is recommended that the user tie the CS line to either VCC or
GND. It is not possible to lock the I2C mode, but it is possible to
select and lock the SPI mode.
To select and lock the interface into the SPI mode, a number of
pulses must be sent down the CS (Pin 4) line. The following
section describes how this is done.
Once the SPI communication protocol is locked in, it cannot be
unlocked while the device is still powered up. Bit D0 of the SPI
Lock Status register (Address 7Fh) is set to 1 when a successful
SPI interface lock is accomplished. To reset the serial interface,
the user must power down the part and power up again. A
software reset does not reset the serial interface.
Serial Interface Selection
The CS line controls the selection between I2C and SPI.
Figure 33 shows the selection process necessary to lock the SPI
interface mode.
To communicate to the ADT7411 using the SPI protocol, send
three pulses down the CS line, as shown in Figure 33. On the
third rising edge (marked as C in Figure 33), the part selects
and locks the SPI interface. Communication to the device is
now limited to the SPI protocol.
As per most SPI standards, the CS line must be low during
every SPI communication to the ADT7411, and high at all other
times. Typical examples of how to connect the dual interface as
I2C or SPI are shown in Figure 31 and Figure 32.
ADT7411
VDD
Figure 32. Typical SPI Interface Connection
The following sections describe in detail how to use the I2C and
SPI protocols associated with the ADT7411.
I2C Serial Interface
Like all I2C compatible devices, the ADT7411 has a 7-bit serial
address. The four MSBs of this address for the ADT7411 are set
to 1001. The three LSBs are set by Pin 11, ADD. The ADD pin
can be configured three ways to give three different address
options: low, floating, and high. Setting the ADD pin low gives a
serial bus address of 1001 000, leaving it floating gives the
Address 1001 010, and setting it high gives the Address 1001
011. The recommended pull-up resistor value is 10 kΩ.
There is an enable/disable bit for the SMBus timeout. When this
is enabled, the SMBus times out after 25 ms of no activity. To
enable it, set Bit 6 of the Control Configuration 2 register. The
power-up default is with the SMBus timeout disabled.
The ADT7411 supports SMBus packet error checking (PEC)
and its use is optional. It is triggered by supplying the extra
clocks for the PEC byte. The PEC is calculated using CRC-8.
The frame clock sequence (FCS) conforms to CRC-8 by the
polynomial
C (x) = x8 + x2 + x1 +1
Consult the SMBus specification for more information.
The serial bus protocol operates as follows:

The master initiates a 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 follows. 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 an R/W bit, which
determines the direction of the data transfer, that is,
whether data is written to or read from the slave device.
ADT7411
The peripheral whose address corresponds 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 now
remain idle while the selected device waits for data to be
read from or written to it. If the R/W bit is 0, the master
writes to the slave device. If the R/W bit is 1, the master
reads from the slave device.
2.
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 because a low-to-high
transition when the clock is high can be interpreted as a
stop signal.
3.
When all data bytes are 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 No Acknowledge. The master then takes the data
line low during the low period before the 10th clock pulse,
and then high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop
condition.
Any number of bytes of data can be transferred over the
serial bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix
read and write in one operation. This is because the type of
operation is determined at the beginning and cannot
subsequently be changed without starting a new operation.
The I2C address set up by the ADD pin is not latched by
the device until after this address is sent twice. On the
eighth SCL cycle of the second valid communication, the
serial bus address is latched in. This is the SCL cycle
directly after the device has seen its own I2C serial bus
address. Any subsequent changes on this pin will have no
effect on the I2C serial bus address.
Writing to the ADT7411
Depending on the register being written to, there are two
different writes for the ADT7411. It is not possible to do a block
write to this part, that is, no I2C auto-increment.
Writing to the Address Pointer Register for a Subsequent
Read
To read data from a particular register, the address pointer
register must contain the address of that register. If it does not,
the correct address must be written to the address pointer
register by performing a single-byte write operation, as shown
in Figure 34. The write operation consists of the serial bus
address followed by the address pointer byte. No data is written
to any of the data registers. A read operation is then performed
to read the register.
Writing Data to a Register
All registers are 8-bit registers so only one byte of data can be
written to each register. Writing a single byte of data to one of
these read/write registers consists of 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
(see Figure 35). To write to a different register, another START
or repeated START is required. If more than one byte of data is
sent in one communication operation, the addressed register is
repeatedly loaded until the last data byte is sent.
Reading Data from the ADT7411
Reading data from the ADT7411 is done in a one-byte
operation. Reading back the contents of a register is shown in
Figure 36. The register address was previously set up by a
single-byte write operation to the Address Pointer register. To
read from another register, write to the Address Pointer register
again to set up the relevant register address. Therefore, block
reads are not possible, that is, no I2C auto-increment.
SPI Serial Interface
The SPI serial interface of the ADT7411 consists of four wires:
CS, SCLK, DIN, and DOUT. The CS is used to select the device
when more than one device is connected to the serial clock and
data lines. The CS is also used to distinguish between any two
separate serial communications (see Figure 41 for a graphical
explanation). The SCLK is used to clock data in and out of the
part. The DIN line is used to write to the registers, and the
DOUT line is used to read data back from the registers. The
recommended pull-up resistor value is between 500 Ω and
820 Ω. Strong pull-ups are needed when serial clock speeds that
are close to the maximum limit are used or when the SPI
interface lines are experiencing large capacitive loading. Larger
resistor values can be used for pull-up resistors when the serial
clock speed is reduced.

ADT7411
The part operates in a slave mode and requires an externally
applied serial clock to the SCLK input. The serial interface is
designed to allow the part to be interfaced to systems that
provide a serial clock that is synchronized to the serial data.
Multiple data reads are possible in SPI interface mode as the
address pointer register is auto-incremental. The address
pointer register auto-increments from 00h to 3Fh and loops
back to start over again at 00h when it reaches 3Fh.
There are two types of serial operation: a read and a write.
Command words are used to distinguish between a read and a
write operation. These command words are given in Table 60.
Address auto-incrementing is possible in SPI mode.

Write Operation
Figure 37 shows the timing diagram for a write operation to the
ADT7411. Data is clocked into the registers on the rising edge
of SCLK. When the CS line is high, the DIN and DOUT lines
are in three-state mode. Only when the CS goes from a high to a
low does the part accept any data on the DIN line. In SPI mode,
the address pointer register is capable of auto-incrementing to
the next register in the register map without having to load the
address pointer register each time. In Figure 37, the register
address portion of the diagram gives the first register that is
written to. Subsequent data bytes are written into sequential
writable registers. Therefore, after each data byte is written into
a register, the address pointer register auto-increments its value
to the next available register. The address pointer register autoincrements from 00h to 3Fh and then loops back to start over
again at 00h.
Read Operation
Figure 38 to Figure 40 show the timing diagrams of correct read
operations. To read back from a register, first write to the
address pointer register with the address to be read from. This
operation is shown in Figure 38. Figure 39 shows the procedure
for reading back a single byte of data. The read command is first
sent to the part during the first eight clock cycles. As the read
command is being sent, irrelevant data is output onto the
DOUT line. During the following eight clock cycles the data
contained in the register selected by the address pointer register
is output onto the DOUT line. Data is output onto the DOUT
line on the falling edge of SCLK. Figure 40 shows the procedure
when reading data from two sequential registers.
The ADT7411 INT/INT output is an interrupt line for devices
that want to trade their ability to master for an extra pin. The
ADT7411 is a slave-only device and uses the SMBus/SPI
INT/INT to signal the host device that it wants to talk. The
SMBus/SPI INT/INT on the ADT7411 is used as an over/under
limit indicator.
The INT/INT pin has an open-drain configuration that allows the
outputs of several devices to be wired-AND together when the
INT/INT pin is active low. Use C6 of the Control Configuration 1
register to set the active polarity of the INT/INT output. The
power-up default is active low. The INT/INT output can be
disabled or enabled by setting C5 of the Control Configuration 1
register to 1 or 0, respectively.
The INT/INT output becomes active when either the internal
temperature value, the external temperature value, VDD value, or
any of the AIN input values exceed the values in their
corresponding THIGH/VHIGH or TLOW/VLOW registers. The
INT/INT output goes inactive again when a conversion result is
the measured value back within the trip limits and when the
status register associated with the out-of-limit event is read. The
two interrupt status registers show which event caused the
INT/INT pin to go active.
The INT/INT output requires an external pull-up resistor. This
can be connected to a voltage different from VDD, provided the
maximum voltage rating of the INT/INT output pin is not
exceeded. The value of the pull-up resistor depends on the
application but should be large enough to avoid excessive sink
currents at the INT/INT output, which can heat the chip and
affect the temperature reading.
SMBus Alert Response
The INT/INT pin behaves the same way as an SMBus alert pin
when the SMBus/I2C interface is selected. It is an open-drain
output and requires a pull-up to VDD. Several INT/INT outputs
can be wire-AND together so that the common line goes low if
one or more of the INT/INT outputs goes low. The polarity of
the INT/INT pin must be set for active low for a number of
outputs to be wire-AND together.

The INT/INT output can operate as an SMBALERT function.
Slave devices on the SMBus can normally not signal to the
master that they want to talk, but the SMBALERT function
allows them to do so. SMBALERT is used in conjunction with
the SMBus general call address.
3.
The device whose INT/INT output is low responds to the
alert response address and the master reads its device
address. As the device address is seven bits long, an LSB of
1 is added. The address of the device is now known and it
can be interrogated in the usual way.
One or more INT/INT outputs can be connected to a common
SMBALERT line connected to the master. When the
SMBALERT line is pulled low by one of the devices, the
procedure shown in Figure 42 occurs.
4.
If more than one device’s INT/INT output is low, the one
with the lowest device address has priority, in accordance
with normal SMBus specifications.
5.
Once the ADT7411 responds to the alert response address,
it resets its INT/INT output, provided that the condition
that caused the out-of-limit event no longer exists and the
status register associated with the out-of-limit event is read.
If the SMBALERT line remains low, the master sends the
ARA again. It continues to do this until all devices whose
SMBALERT outputs were low have responded.
