PECI-to-I2C Translator
General Description
The MAX6618 PECI-to-I2C translator provides an effi-
cient, low-cost solution for PECI-to-SMBusTM/I2C proto-
col conversion. The PECI-compliant host reads
temperature data directly from up to four PECI-enabled
CPUs.
The I2C 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 MAX6618 is designed to operate from a +3.0V to
+3.6V supply voltage and ambient temperature range
of -20°C to +120°C.
