INTRODUCTION
The ADM1022 Evaluation Board allows the ADM1022
microprocessor system hardware monitor IC to be easily
evaluated using a personal computer. Using both the
evaluation board and its accompanying software, the
ADM1022 can be interfaced to any personal computer
running Windows^TM 95 or Windows^TM 98, via the
computer’s parallel printer port, or via the computer’s
SMBus using the DIMM interface card provided.
The evaluation board allows all the input and output func-
tions of the ADM1022 to be exercised without the need
for external components. The software allows control and
monitoring of the ADM1022’s internal registers.
THE ADM1022
The following gives a brief description of the ADM1022.
More detailed device information can be found in the
datasheet for the device. The ADM1022 is a hardware
temperature monitor for personal computers and other
microprocessor systems which features a three-channel
digital thermometer and over-temperature alarm. It can
also control the speed of a cooling fan.
The device can measure local temperature using an on-
chip diode connected transistor, or can use low cost, small
signal transistors such as the 2N3904 or 2N3906 to mea-
sure the temperatures of 2 external microprocessors. The
measurement technique implemented, cancels the absolute
value of the transistor’s base emitter voltage, so that no
calibration is required.
