General Description
The G771 contains a precise digital thermometer, a
system-reset circuit, and a programmable thermal
shutdown signal.
The thermometer reports the temperature of 2 remote
sensors. The remote sensors are diode-connected
transistors typically a low-cost, easily mounted
2N3904 NPN type that replace conventional thermis-
tors or thermocouples. Remote accuracy is 鹵5擄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
TM
) 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 cor-
responding to 1擄C, in two鈥檚-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.
