MAX6618
PECI-to-I2C Translator
General Description
The MAX6618 PECI(1.0)-to-I2C translator provides an
efficient, low-cost solution for PECI(1.0)-to-SMBus/I2C
protocol conversion. The PECI(1.0)-compliant host
reads temperature data directly from up to four
PECI(1.0)-enabled CPUs. This translator will only com-
municate with CPUs that support PECI 1.0.
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.
