General Description
The MAX6621 PECI-to-I
2
C translator provides an effi-
cient, low-cost solution for PECI-to-SMBus
TM
/I
2
C proto-
col conversion. The PECI-compliant host reads
temperature data directly from up to four PECI-enabled
CPUs. Interrupts are generated when the measured
temperature exceeds the high-temperature limit and
causes ALERT to assert. The RESET input allows the
host to reset the I
2
C bus in the event of a communica-
tion error.
The I
2
C interface provides an independent serial com-
munication channel to communicate synchronously with
peripheral devices in a multiple master or multiple slave
system. This interface allows a maximum serial-data
rate of 400kbps.
The MAX6621 is designed to operate from a +3.0V to
+3.6V supply voltage and ambient temperature range
of -20°C to +120°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
