EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE MAX31730 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor General Description The MAX31730 temperature sensor monitors its own temperature and the temperatures of three external diodeconnected transistors. The operating supply voltage is from 3.0V to 3.6V. Resistance cancellation compensates for high series resistance in circuit-board traces and the external thermal diode, while beta compensation corrects for temperature-measurement errors due to low-beta sensing transistors. All temperature channels have programmable temperature thresholds. When the measured temperature of a channel crosses the respective threshold, a status bit is set in the thermal status registers and the open-drain THERM output asserts. A highest temperature register allows the master to obtain the temperature of the hottest channel. The 2-wire serial interface accepts SMBus protocols (write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte) for reading the temperature data and programming the temperature thresholds. Any one of eight available slave addresses can be selected using the address selection input (ADD), which can be connected to ground or connected to a grounded resistor. The MAX31730 supports 3.0V to 3.6V operation and is specified for a -40C to +125C operating temperature range. It is available in a 10-pin MAX(R) and a 12-pin, 3mm x 3mm TDFN package.

Communication with the device is achieved through the SMBus/I2C-compatible serial interface and over/undertemperature-detection output (THERM). The THERM output asserts if the software-programmed temperature thresholds are exceeded. THERM normally operates in comparator mode and can be connected to a fan, system shutdown, or other thermal-management circuitry. It can also operate in interrupt mode to serve as a SMBus alert interrupt. www.maximintegrated.com SDA ADD GND ADC Conversion Sequence The device starts the conversion sequence by measuring the temperature on remote channel 1, followed by remote channel 2, remote channel 3, and the local channel. The conversion result for each enabled channel is stored in the corresponding temperature data register. No conversion is performed on any remote channel that does not have a diode connected, whose DXP_ - DXN_ inputs are shorted together, or that has a short between DXP_ and VDD, DXP_ and GND, or DXN_ and VDD, or if the channel is not enabled in the Highest Temperature Enable register. See the Register 36h: Diode Fault Status section for additional details. Maxim Integrated 8 MAX31730 Series-Resistance Cancellation Some thermal diodes on high-power ICs have excessive series resistance that can cause temperature-measurement errors when used with conventional remote temperature sensors. External channels 1-3 of the device have a series-resistance cancellation feature that eliminates the effect of diode series resistance and interconnection resistance. The cancellation range is from 0 to 300. Series-resistance cancellation is always enabled. Low-Power Standby Mode Enter software-standby mode by setting the STOP bit to 1 in the Configuration register. Software-standby mode disables the ADC and reduces the supply current to approximately 2.5A. During software standby, data is retained in memory and the bus interface is active and listening for commands. If a START condition is recognized, activity on the bus causes the supply current to increase. If a standby command is received while a conversion is in progress, the conversion cycle is finished, then the device enters shutdown, and the temperature registers are updated. SMBus Digital Interface The device is SMBus 2.0 compatible and supports four standard SMBus protocols: write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte, as well as multibyte reads and writes (Figure 1). The shorter receive-byte protocol allows quicker transfers, provided that the correct register was previously selected by a read-byte instruction. Use caution with the shorter protocols in multimaster systems, since a second master could overwrite the register byte without informing the first master. Figure 2 is the SMBus write timing diagram and Figure 3 is the SMBus read timing diagram. www.maximintegrated.com 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor The write-byte format consists of the master transmitting the slave address, followed by the address for the target register, followed by the 8 bits of data to be written to the target register. To write multiple bytes to two or more contiguous registers, write a new byte after each ACK. The register address then increments after each byte is written. End the transaction with a STOP condition. The read-byte format consists of the master transmitting the slave address followed by the address for the register to be read. The master then begins a new transaction by sending the slave address again, after which the slave returns the data from the selected register. To read multiple bytes from two or more contiguous registers, continue reading after each ACK. The register address then increments after each byte is read. Conclude the overall transaction with a NACK and a STOP condition. When the first byte of a 2-byte temperature value is read, the device prevents updates of the second byte's contents until the second byte has been read. If the second byte has not been read within a SMBus timeout period (nominally 35ms), it is again allowed to update. The send-byte format can be used to transmit a register address without a transfer of data. It consists of the master transmitting the slave address followed by the address of the target register. The receive-byte format can be used to read data from a register that was previously selected. It consists of the master transmitting the slave address, after which the slave returns the data from the register that was previously selected. After this command completes, the address pointer does not increment.

SMBus/I2C Read Timing Diagram Alert Response Address (ARA) The SMBus alert response interrupt pointer provides quick fault identification for simple slave devices that lack the complex logic necessary to be a bus master. Upon receiving an interrupt signal, the host master can broadcast a receive-byte transmission to the alert response slave address (19h). Then, any slave device that generated an interrupt attempts to identify itself by putting its own address on the bus. The alert response can activate several different slave devices simultaneously, similar to the I2C general call. If more than one slave attempts to respond, bus arbitration rules apply, and the device with the lower address code wins. The losing device does not generate an acknowledgment and continues to hold the THERM pin low until cleared (the conditions for clearing an alert vary depending on the type of slave device). Successful completion of the alert response protocol clears the output latch. If the condition that caused the alert still www.maximintegrated.com exists, the device reasserts the interrupt at the end of the next conversion. The device responds to the ARA only when in interrupt mode. Interrupt Mode Thermal interrupts occur when the local or remote temperature reading crosses a user-programmable high thermal limit or a low thermal limit. The THERM interrupt output signal can be cleared by reading the status register associated with the fault or by successfully responding to an ARA transmission by the master. In both cases, the thermal fault is cleared but is reasserted at the end of the next conversion if the fault condition still exists. The interrupt does not halt automatic conversions. The THERM output is open drain so that multiple devices can share a common interrupt line. All thermal interrupts can be masked using the THERM Mask register. Interrupt mode can be selected by writing bit 4 in the Configuration register to a 0. Maxim Integrated 11 MAX31730 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor Comparator Mode Selecting comparator mode in the Configuration register causes the THERM output to assert based on a temperature measurement exceeding a trip threshold value, just as in interrupt mode. However, in comparator mode, the output deasserts automatically when the temperature crosses the threshold back into the acceptable range. A 2C hysteresis is applied in comparator mode, so clearing the THERM output in this mode requires the temperature to be 2C less than the high thermal limit and 2C greater than the low thermal limit. Temperature Register Format Temperature data is stored in the temperature, limit, and reference temperature registers. The temperature data format is 12 bits, two's complement, and the register is read out in 2 bytes: an upper byte and a lower byte. Bits D[15:0] contain the temperature data, with the LSB representing 0.0625C and the MSB representing the sign bit (see Table 1). The MSB is transmitted first. In addition to the normal two's-complement temperature data format, the device offers an optional extended data format that allows temperatures equal to or greater than +127.9375C to be read. In the extended format (selected by bit 1 of the Configuration register, 13h), the measured temperature is the value in the temperature register plus 64C, as shown in Table 2. Note: when the extended format is selected, all limit and reference temperature registers must be written in this format. They are not automatically translated by toggling the extended format bit.

Channels not selected are skipped during the temperature-conversion cycle and diode fault detection is not performed on them. If a channel is deselected while a thermal or diode fault is indicated in the corresponding fault register, the fault bit(s) remain asserted until the register contents are read, and then do not reassert until the channel is again enabled and a fault detected. Highest Temperature Registers The Highest Temperature registers (10h and 11h) work with the Reference Temperature registers' (40h through 47h) value for each temperature channel. The Reference Temperature registers can effectively serve as an offset temperature margin, or their contents can simply be set to zero. After each temperature conversion, the Reference Temperature value is subtracted from the measured temperature for the corresponding channel (e.g., remote 2 temperature minus remote 2 reference temperature), and the result is compared to the most recent results for the other channels. The highest of all these values is loaded into the Reference Temperature register. Highest Temperature Enable Register The Highest Temperature Enable register selects the temperature channels from which the contents of the Highest Temperature register are obtained (see Table 4).

Access to these registers is provided through the I2C/SMBus-compatible interface. Alarms are masked at power-up. If a threshold is crossed, a bit is set in the Thermal Status registers (40h through 47h) to indicate the thermal fault. The THERM pin is also asserted unless the channel is masked using the THERM Mask register. Configuration Register The Configuration register (Table 5) has several functions. Bit 7 (MSB) is used to put the device either in softwarestandby mode (stop) or continuous-conversion mode. In standby mode, the ADC is shut down and the supply current reduced. The bus remains active. Bit 6 resets all registers to their POR conditions and then clears itself. Bit 5 disables the bus timeout function. Bit 4 selects whether the THERM output functions as an interrupt or as a comparator. Bits 2 and 3 enable the fault queue, which sets the number of consecutive thermal faults required before asserting the thermal status bits and the THERM output. Bit 1 selects the extended range temperature data format (Table 2), which allows reading temperature values of 127.9375C or greater. When set to 1, bit 0 begins a single conversion on all enabled temperature channels. This oneshot function can be enabled only when in stop mode. Table 5.

ONE SHOT can only be enabled in stop mode. www.maximintegrated.com Maxim Integrated 14 MAX31730 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor THERM Mask Register The THERM Mask register functions are described in Table 6. Bits [3:0] are used to mask the THERM pin output. Bit 0 masks assertion of THERM due to the local channel thermal faults and the remaining bits mask the remote thermal faults. The power-up state of this register is 0000 0000 (00h). Status Register Functions The status registers indicate temperature or diode fault status. The Thermal High Status register indicates whether a measured local or remote temperature has exceeded the associated threshold limit set in the associated Thermal High Status register. The Thermal Low Status register indicates whether the measured temperature has fallen below the threshold limit set in the Thermal Low Status register for the local or remotesensing diodes. The Diode Fault Status register indicates whether there is a diode fault (open or short) in any of the remote-sensing channels. Bits in the Thermal Status registers are cleared by a successful read, but set again after the next conversion unless the fault is corrected, either by a change in the measured temperature or by a change in the threshold temperature. When in comparator mode, reading the status registers has no effect on the THERM output state; the state depends on the current temperature, threshold, and mask values. Similarly, bits in the Diode Fault Status register are cleared by a successful read, but set again after the next conversion if the fault is still in effect. In interrupt mode, the THERM output follows the status bits for all unmasked channels. Once the THERM output is asserted while in interrupt mode, it can be deasserted either by reading the thermal status register or by successfully responding to an ARA. In both cases, the THERM pin is cleared even if the fault condition remains in effect, but the THERM output reasserts at the end of the next conversion if the fault condition is still present.

A diode fault does not cause THERM to assert and does not allow an overtemperature or undertemperature event to be detected for the affected channel. A bit in the Diode Fault Status register (36h) corresponding to the channel is set to 1 and the temperature data for the channel is stored as 0C (0000h in normal format). A period of approximately 3ms at the beginning of each channel's temperature conversion cycle is dedicated to diode fault detection. Once a diode fault is detected, the temperature conversion for that channel is abandoned and fault detection/temperature conversion begins on the next channel in the conversion sequence. See the Register 36h: Diode Fault Status section. Effect of Ideality Factor The accuracy of the remote temperature measurements depend on the ideality factor (n) of the remote "diode" (actually a diode-connected transistor). The default value for the MAX31730 is n = 1.008 (channels 1-3). A thermal diode on the substrate of an external IC is normally a PNP, with the base and emitter brought out and the collector grounded. DXP_ must be connected to the anode (emitter) and DXN_ must be connected to the cathode (base) of this PNP. If a sense transistor with an ideality factor other than 1.008 is used, the output data will be different from the data obtained with the optimum ideality factor. If necessary, a different ideality factor value can be chosen using the Custom Ideality Factor register (Table 9). The Custom Ideality Enable register (Table 10) allows each channel to have the default ideality of 1.008 or the value selected in the Custom Ideality Factor register. Note that any change in the ideality selections occur on subsequent conversions; current temperature register values do not change until a new conversion has completed. Table 9.

Note: it applies only to PNP transistors with their collectors grounded and their bases and emitters connected to DXN_ and DXP_, respectively (see Figure 4). Select the remote channels for which beta compensation are active using the Beta Compensation Enable register (Table 11). Note that any changes to this register do not change the results currently in the temperature registers or temperature conversion in progress; changes affect subsequent conversion results. Before beginning a temperature measurement with beta compensation enabled, the device first measures the beta of the target transistor, and then adjusts the drive current level to produce accurate collector current ratios. The beta value registers (Table 12) for the three remote channels contain the minimum beta values for the corresponding transistors. If a target transistor has a beta less than 0.09, temperature measurement does not work reliably and a temperature measurement is not initiated for that transistor. The diode fault bit is set for the corresponding channel and the temperature registers updated with 0000h. If an attempt at temperature measurement is desired for that remote channel, set the associated Beta Compensation Enable bit to 0. Note that if beta compensation is enabled, the DXP DXN Figure 4. PNP Configuration for use with Beta Compensation. series resistance in the diode path must be minimized as the series resistance cancellation circuitry will interfere with the beta compensation. Noise Filter In noisy environments, it can be useful to average the results of multiple temperature conversion results. Use the Filter Enable register (Table 13) to average the previous four conversions to determine the value stored in the temperature registers. Even when enabled, averaging occurs when performing a one-shot conversion sequence (selected by bit 0 in the Configuration register), so caution should be exercised when long delays occur between oneshot conversions. Note that filtering begins after enabling the filter; the current register contents do not change. Table 11.

Discrete Remote Diodes When the remote-sensing diode is a discrete transistor, its collector and base must be connected together; PNP or npn discrete transistors can be used. Table 16 lists examples of discrete transistors that are appropriate for use with this device. The transistor must be a small-signal type with a relatively high forward voltage; otherwise, the A/D input voltage range can be violated. The forward voltage at the highest expected temperature must be greater than 0.25V at 10A; at the lowest expected temperature, the forward voltage must be less than 0.95V at 100A. Large power transistors must not be used. Also, ensure that the base resistance is less than 100. Tight specifications for forward-current gain (e.g., 50 < < 150) indicate that the manufacturer has good process controls and that the devices have consistent VBE characteristics. Manufacturers of discrete transistors do not normally specify or guarantee ideality factor. This normally is not a problem since good-quality discrete transistors tend to have ideality factors that fall within a relatively narrow range. Variations in remote temperature readings of less than 2C with a variety of discrete transistors have been observed. However, it is good design practice to verify good consistency of temperature readings with several discrete transistors from any supplier under consideration. Unused Diode Channels If one or more of the remote-diode channels is not needed, disconnect the DXP_ and DXN_ inputs for that channel, or connect the DXP_ to the corresponding DXN_. The status register indicates a diode "fault" for this channel and the channel is ignored during the temperature-measurement sequence. It is also good practice to mask any unused channels immediately upon power-up by setting the appropriate bits in the THERM Mask register. This prevents unused channels from causing THERM to assert. www.maximintegrated.com 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor Table 16.

The leads provide a good thermal path between the PCB traces and the die. As with all IC temperature sensors, thermal conductivity between the die and the ambient air is poor by comparison, making air-temperature measurements impractical. Since the thermal mass of the PCB is far greater than that of the device, the device follows temperature changes on the PCB with little or no perceivable delay. When measuring the temperature of a CPU, or other IC with an on-chip sense junction, thermal mass has virtually no effect; the measured temperature of the junction tracks the actual temperature within a conversion cycle. When measuring temperature with discrete remote transistors, the best thermal-response times are obtained with transistors in small packages (i.e., SOT23 or SC70). Take care to account for thermal gradients between the heat source and the sensor, and ensure that stray air currents across the sensor package do not interfere with measurement accuracy. Self-heating does not significantly affect measurement accuracy. Remote-sensor self-heating due to the diode current source is negligible. Maxim Integrated 45 MAX31730 3-Channel Remote Temperature Sensor ADC Noise Filtering The integrating ADC has good noise rejection for lowfrequency signals, such as power-supply hum. In environments with significant high-frequency EMI, connect an external 100pF capacitor between DXP_ and DXN_. Larger capacitor values can be used for added filtering; however, this can introduce errors due to the rise time of the switched current source. Noise can be minimized with careful PCB layout, as discussed in the PCB Layout section. Slave Address Slave addresses can be selected by connecting ADD, as shown in Table 17. PCB Layout Follow the guidelines below to reduce the measurement error when measuring remote temperature: 1) Place the device as close as possible to the thermal diode. In noisy environments, such as a computer motherboard, this distance is typically 10cm to 20cm. This length can be increased if the worst noise sources are avoided. Noise sources include displays, clock generators, memory buses, and PCI buses. 2) Do not route the DXP_ and DXN_ traces across fast digital signals, which can easily introduce +30C error, even with good filtering. 3) Route the DXP_ and DXN_ traces in parallel and in close proximity to each other. Each parallel pair of traces should go to a thermal diode. Route these traces away from any higher voltage traces, such as +12VDC. Leakage currents from PCB contamination must be dealt with carefully since a 20M leakage path from DXP_ to ground causes approximately +1C error. If high-voltage traces are unavoidable, connect guard traces to GND on either side of the DXP_ - DXN_ traces (Figure 5). 4) Route through as few vias and crossunders as possible to minimize copper/solder thermocouple effects. Use wide traces when possible (5-mil to 10-mil traces are typical). Twisted-Pair and Shielded Cables Use a twisted-pair cable to connect the remote sensor for remote-sensor distances longer than 20cm or in very noisy environments. Twisted-pair cable lengths can be between 2m and 4m before noise introduces excessive errors. For longer distances, the best solution is a shielded twisted pair, such as those used for audio microphones. For example, Belden No. 8451 works well for distances up to 100ft in a noisy environment. At the device, connect the twisted-pair cables to DXP_ and DXN_ and the shielded cable to GND. Leave the shielded cable unconnected at the remote sensor. For very long cable runs, the cable's parasitic capacitance often provides noise filtering; therefore, the 100pF capacitor can often be removed, or reduced in value. Table 17.
