7. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
7.1 General Description
The W83L771W/G provides one remote temperature sensor input which could be connected to
remote thermistors, 2N3904 transistors, or CPU/GPU thermal diode, and one local on die thermal
sensor to detect ambient temperature. The measured temperature is digitally compared with the value
stored in the programmable High/Low limit Registers and T_CRIT registers. Any out-of-limit value
could be detected by monitoring Status Register (SR). W83L771W/G also supports SMBusTM 2.0
ALARM protocol and TIMEOUT.
The data format of remote temperature is 10 bit plus sign combined with two 8 bits wide SMBusTM
access interface. The real temperature equals the measured temperature plus or minus offset value.
Offset value could be set in offset registers. The date format of the offset registers is also the same as
the data format of remote temperature.
7.2 Access Interface
W83L771W/G provides SMBus serial interface to read/write internal registers, and the SMBus address
for read and write is 10011001b and 10011000b, respectively.
The first serial bus access timing is shown as follows:
