PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ADM1021A
1
is a two-channel digital thermometer and
undertemperature/overtemperature alarm, intended for use
in personal computers and other systems requiring thermal
monitoring and management. The device can measure the
temperature of a microprocessor using a diode-connected
PNP transistor, which can be provided on-chip with the
Pentium® III or similar processors, or can be a low cost discrete
NPN/PNP device, such as the 2N3904/2N3906. A novel
measurement technique cancels out the absolute value of the
transistors base emitter voltage so that no calibration is
required. The second measurement channel measures the
output of an on-chip temperature sensor to monitor the
temperature of the device and its environment.
The ADM1021A communicates over a two-wire serial interface
compatible with SMBus standards. Undertemperature and
overtemperature limits can be programmed into the device over
the serial bus, and an
ALERT
output signals when the on-chip
or remote temperature is out of range. This output can be used
as an interrupt or as an SMBus alert.
