Note 1: All parameters are tested at T

= +25°C. Specifications over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 2: Guaranteed by design; not production tested.
Note 3: A master device must provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (referred to V

of the SCL signal) to bridge
the undefined region of SCL’s falling edge.

Note 6: Input filters on the SDA and SCL inputs suppress noise spikes less than 50ns.
Note 7: The MAX6621 must drive a more restrictive time to allow for quantized sampling errors by a client yet still attain the mini-
mum time less than 500μs. t
BIT
limits apply equally to t

and t
BIT-M
.
Note 8: The minimum and maximum bit times are relative to t
BIT
defined in the timing negotiation pulse.
Note 9: Extended trace lengths can appear as additional nodes.
Note 10: The client may deassert its low idle drive prior to the falling edge of the first bit of the message by using the rising edge to
detect a message start. However, the time delay must be sufficient to qualify the rising edge as a true message rather than
a noise spike.
Note 11: The message stop is defined by two consecutive periods when the bus has no rising edge. Tolerance around this time is
based on the t
BIT-M
error budget.
Note 12: t
SETUP
is not additive with t
STOP
. Rather, these times may overlap.

Configuration
The MAX6621 has four configuration registers (Table 1).
CONFIG0 is the main configuration register that enables
the PECI sockets, I
2
C bus timeout, PEC, alert activation,
and polling delay. CONFIG1 sets the number of retries,
CONFIG2 sets the temperature offset, and CONFIG3
controls the temperature averaging. You can write to
the configuration registers to set the configuration or
read from the configuration registers to get the current
settings.
Detailed Description
The MAX6621 obtains temperature data from an inter-
nal temperature sensor in PECI-compliant hosts. Up to
four PECI hosts can be connected to the PECI I/O inter-
face. The MAX6621 handles all the PECI transmissions
and uses a 2-wire, I
2
C-compatible serial interface to
communicate with the PECI host.
