Remote/Local Temperature Sensor with Dual-
Alarm Outputs and SMBus Serial Interface
________________General Description
The MAX1619 is a precise digital thermometer that reports
the temperature of both a remote sensor and its own
package. The remote sensor is a diode-connected transis-
tor—typically a low-cost, easily mounted 2N3904 NPN
type—that replaces conventional thermistors or thermo-
couples. Remote accuracy is ±3°C for multiple transistor
manufacturers, with no calibration needed. The remote
channel can also measure the die temperature of other
ICs, such as microprocessors, that contain an on-chip,
diode-connected transistor.
The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard System
Management Bus (SMBus®) Write Byte, Read Byte, Send
Byte, and Receive Byte commands to program the alarm
thresholds and to read temperature data. The data format
is 7 bits plus sign, with each bit corresponding to 1°C, in
two’s complement format. Measurements can be done
automatically and autonomously, with the conversion rate
programmed by the user or programmed to operate in a
single-shot mode. The adjustable rate allows the user to
control the supply-current drain.
The MAX1619 is nearly identical to the popular MAX1617A,
with the additional feature of an overtemperature alarm out-
put (OVERT) that responds to the remote temperature; this
is optimal for fan control.
