LM89-1CIMX/NOPB - Texas Instruments High-Performance Analog

LM89

±0.75˚C Accurate, Remote Diode and Local Digital

Temperature Sensor with Two-Wire Interface

General Description

The LM89 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with a

2-wire System Management Bus (SMBus) serial interface.

The LM89 accurately measures its own temperature as well

as the temperature of an external device, such as processor

thermal diode or diode-connected transistor such as the

2N3904. The temperature of any ASIC can be accurately

determined using the LM89 as long as a dedicated diode

(semiconductor junction) is available on the target die. The

LM89 remote sensor accuracy of ±0.75˚C is factory trimmed

for the series resistance and 1.0021 typical non-ideality fac-

tor of the Intel®Pentium™4 and the Mobile Pentium 4

Processor-M thermal diode. The LM89 has an Offset

requiring continuous software management. Contact

hardware.monitor.team@nsc.com to obtain the latest data for

new processors.

The LM89 and the LM89-1 have the same functions but

different SMBus slave addresses. This allows for one of

each to be on the bus at the same time.

Activation of the ALERT output occurs when any tempera-

ture goes outside a preprogrammed window set by the HIGH

and LOW temperature limit registers or exceeds the T_CRIT

temperature limit. Activation of the T_CRIT_A occurs when

any temperature exceeds the T_CRIT programmed limit.

The LM89 is pin and register compatible with the LM86,

LM90, Analog Devices ADM1032 and Maxim MAX6657/8.

the device beyond its rated operating conditions.

Note 2: When the input voltage (VI) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (VI<GND or VI>VDD), the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA.

Parasitic components and or ESD protection circuitry are shown in the figure below for the LM89’s pins. The nominal breakdown voltage of D3 is 6.5 V. Care should

be taken not to forward bias the parasitic diode, D1, present on pins: D+, D−. Doing so by more than 50 mV may corrupt a temperature measurements.

1.0 Functional Description

The LM89 temperature sensor incorporates a delta V

based temperature sensor using a Local or Remote diode

and a 10-bit plus sign ADC (Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital

Converter). The LM89 is compatible with the serial SMBus

version 2.0 two-wire interface. Digital comparators compare

the measured Local Temperature (LT) to the Local High

(LHS), Local Low (LLS) and Local T_CRIT (LCS) user-

programmable temperature limit registers. The measured

Remote Temperature (RT) is digitally compared to the Re-

mote High (RHS), Remote Low (RLS) and Remote T_CRIT

(RCS) user-programmable temperature limit registers. Acti-

vation of the ALERT output indicates that a comparison is

greater than the limit preset in a T_CRIT or HIGH limit

The T_CRIT_A output responds as a true comparator with

built in hysteresis. The hysteresis is set by the value placed

in the Hysteresis register (TH). Activation of T_CRIT_A oc-

curs when the temperature is above the T_CRIT setpoint.

T_CRIT_A remains activated until the temperature goes be-

low the setpoint calculated by T_CRIT − TH. The hysteresis

perature readings.

The LM89 may be placed in a low power consumption

(Shutdown) mode by setting the RUN/STOP bit found in the

Configuration register. In the Shutdown mode, the LM89’s

SMBus interface remains while all circuitry not required is

turned off.

The Local temperature reading and setpoint data registers

are 8-bits wide. The format of the 11-bit remote temperature

data is a 16-bit left justified word. Two 8-bit registers, high

and low bytes, are provided for each setpoint as well as the

temperature reading. Two offset registers (RTOLB and

RTOHB) can be used to compensate for non_ideality error,

discussed further in Section 4.1 DIODE NON-IDEALITY.

The remote temperature reading reported is adjusted by

subtracting from or adding to the actual temperature reading

the value placed in the offset registers.

1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE

The LM89 takes approximately 31.25 ms to convert the

Local Temperature (LT), Remote Temperature (RT), and to

update all of its registers. Only during the conversion pro-

cess the busy bit (D7) in the Status register (02h) is high.

These conversions are addressed in a round robin se-

quence. The conversion rate may be modified by the Con-

version Rate Register (04h). When the conversion rate is

modified a delay is inserted between conversions, the actual

conversion time remains at 31.25ms. Different conversion

rates will cause the LM89 to draw different amounts of

supply current as shown in Figure 2.

1.2 THE ALERT OUTPUT

The LM89’s ALERT pin is an active-low open-drain output

that is triggered by a temperature conversion that is outside

the limits defined by the temperature setpoint registers. Re-

set of the ALERT output is dependent upon the selected

method of use. The LM89’s ALERT pin is versatile and will

accommodate three different methods of use to best serve

the system designer: as a temperature comparator, as a

temperature based interrupt flag, and as part of an SMBus

ALERT system. The three methods of use are further de-

scribed below. The ALERT and interrupt methods are differ-

ent only in how the user interacts with the LM89.

Each temperature reading (LT and RT) is associated with a

T_CRIT setpoint register (LCS, RCS), a HIGH setpoint reg-

ister (LHS and RHS) and a LOW setpoint register (LLS and

RLS). At the end of every temperature reading, a digital

comparison determines whether that reading is above its

HIGH or T_CRIT setpoint or below its LOW setpoint. If so,

the corresponding bit in the STATUS REGISTER is set. If the

ALERT mask bit is not high, any bit set in the STATUS

(D2), will cause the ALERT output to be pulled low. Any

temperature conversion that is out of the limits defined by the

temperature setpoint registers will trigger an ALERT. Addi-

tionally, the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register

must be cleared to trigger an ALERT in all modes.

1.2.1 ALERT Output as a Temperature Comparator

When the LM89 is implemented in a system in which it is not

serviced by an interrupt routine, the ALERT output could be

used as a temperature comparator. Under this method of

use, once the condition that triggered the ALERT to go low is

no longer present, the ALERT is de-asserted (Figure 3). For

example, if the ALERT output was activated by the compari-

son of LT >LHS, when this condition is no longer true the

ALERT will return HIGH. This mode allows operation without

software intervention, once all registers are configured dur-

ing set-up. In order for the ALERT to be used as a tempera-

ture comparator, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the

FILTER and ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must

be set high. This is not the power-on-default state.

1.0 Functional Description (Continued)

1.2.2 ALERT Output as an Interrupt

The LM89’s ALERT output can be implemented as a simple

interrupt signal when it is used to trigger an interrupt service

routine. In such systems it is undesirable for the interrupt flag

to repeatedly trigger during or before the interrupt service

routine has been completed. Under this method of operation,

during a read of the STATUS REGISTER the LM89 will set

the ALERT mask bit (D7 of the Configuration register) if any

bit in the STATUS REGISTER is set, with the exception of

Busy (D7) and OPEN (D2). This prevents further ALERT

triggering until the master has reset the ALERT mask bit, at

the end of the interrupt service routine. The STATUS REG-

ISTER bits are cleared only upon a read command from the

master (see Figure 4) and will be re-asserted at the end of

the next conversion if the triggering condition(s) persist(s). In

order for the ALERT to be used as a dedicated interrupt

signal, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and

ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set low.

This is the power-on-default state.

The following sequence describes the response of a system

that uses the ALERT output pin as a interrupt flag:

1. Master Senses ALERT low

2. Master reads the LM89 STATUS REGISTER to deter-

mine what caused the ALERT

3. LM89 clears STATUS REGISTER, resets the ALERT

HIGH and sets the ALERT mask bit (D7 in the Configu-

ration register).

4. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to

be triggered. The fan is started, setpoint limits are ad-

justed, etc.

5. Master resets the ALERT mask (D7 in the Configuration

1.2.3 ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT

When the ALERT output is connected to one or more ALERT

outputs of other SMBus compatible devices and to a master,

an SMBus alert line is created. Under this implementation,

the LM89’s ALERT should be operated using the ARA (Alert

Response Address) protocol. The SMBus 2.0 ARA protocol,

defined in the SMBus specification 2.0, is a procedure de-

signed to assist the master in resolving which part generated

an interrupt and service that interrupt while impeding system

operation as little as possible.

The SMBus alert line is connected to the open-drain ports of

all devices on the bus thereby AND’ing them together. The

ARA is a method by which with one command the SMBus

master may identify which part is pulling the SMBus alert line

LOW and prevent it from pulling it LOW again for the same

triggering condition. When an ARA command is received by

all devices on the bus, the devices pulling the SMBus alert

line LOW, first, send their address to the master and second,

release the SMBus alert line after recognizing a successful

transmission of their address.

The SMBus 1.1 and 2.0 specification state that in response

to an ARA (Alert Response Address) “after acknowledging

the slave address the device must disengage its SMBALERT

pulldown”. Furthermore, “if the host still sees SMBALERT

low when the message transfer is complete, it knows to read

the ARA again”. This SMBus “disengaging of SMBALERT”

requirement prevents locking up the SMBus alert line. Com-

petitive parts may address this “disengaging of SMBALERT”

requirement differently than the LM89 or not at all. SMBus

systems that implement the ARA protocol as suggested for

the LM89 will be fully compatible with all competitive parts.

The LM89 fulfills “disengaging of SMBALERT” by setting the

ALERT mask bit (bit D7 in the Configuration register, at

address 09h) after successfully sending out its address in

response to an ARA and releasing the ALERT output pin.

Once the ALERT mask bit is activated, the ALERT output pin

will be disabled until enabled by software. In order to enable

the ALERT the master must read the STATUS REGISTER,

at address 02h, during the interrupt service routine and then

reset the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register to 0 at

the end of the interrupt service routine.

The following sequence describes the ARA response proto-

col.

1. Master Senses SMBus alert line low

2. Master sends a START followed by the Alert Response

Address (ARA) with a Read Command.

3. Alerting Device(s) send ACK.

4. Alerting Device(s) send their Address. While transmitting

their address, alerting devices sense whether their ad-

dress has been transmitted correctly. (The LM89 will

reset its ALERT output and set the ALERT mask bit once

its complete address has been transmitted successfully.)

5. Master/slave NoACK

6. Master sends STOP

7. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to

be triggered. The STATUS REGISTER is read and fan

The ARA, 000 1100, is a general call address. No device

should ever be assigned this address.

Bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and ALERT

CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set low in order for

the LM89 to respond to the ARA command.

The ALERT output can be disabled by setting the ALERT

mask bit, D7, of the Configuration register. The power-on-

default is to have the ALERT mask bit and the ALERT

configure bit low.

1.3 T_CRIT_A OUTPUT and T_CRIT LIMIT

T_CRIT_A is activated when any temperature reading is

greater than the limit preset in the critical temperature set-

point register (T_CRIT), as shown in Figure 6. The Status

alarm. A bit in the Status Register is set high to indicate

which temperature reading exceeded the T_CRIT setpoint

temperature and caused the alarm, see Section 2.3.

Local and remote temperature diodes are sampled in se-

quence by the A/D converter. The T_CRIT_A output and the

Status Register flags are updated after every Local and

Remote temperature conversion. T_CRT_A follows the state

of the comparison, it is reset when the temperature falls

below the setpoint RCS-TH. The Status Register flags are

reset only after the Status Register is read and if a tempera-

ture conversion(s) is/are below the T_CRIT setpoint, as

shown in Figure 6.

1.4 POWER-ON-DEFAULT STATES

LM89 always powers up to these known default states. The

LM89 remains in these states until after the first conversion.

1. Command Register set to 00h

2. Local Temperature set to 0˚C

3. Remote Diode Temperature set to 0˚C until the end of

the first conversion.

4. Status Register set to 00h.

5. Configuration register set to 00h; ALERT enabled, Re-

mote T_CRIT alarm enabled and Local T_CRIT alarm

enabled

6. 85˚C Local T_CRIT temperature setpoint

7. 110˚C Remote T_CRIT temperature setpoint

8. 70˚C Local and Remote HIGH temperature setpoints

9. 0˚C Local and Remote LOW temperature setpoints

10. Filter and Alert Configure Register set to 00h; filter dis-

abled, ALERT output set as an SMBus ALERT

11. Conversion Rate Register set to 8h; conversion rate set

to 16 conv./sec.

1.5 SMBus INTERFACE

The LM89 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the

SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBData line is bi-

directional. The LM89 never drives the SMBCLK line and it

does not support clock stretching. According to SMBus

specifications, the LM89 has a 7-bit slave address. All bits A6

through A0 are internally programmed and can not be

changed by software or hardware. The LM89 and LM89-1

versions have the following SMBus slave addresses:

Version A6 A5 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0

LM89 1 0 0 1 1 0 0

LM89-1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1

1.6 TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT

Temperature data can only be read from the Local and

Remote Temperature registers; the setpoint registers

(T_CRIT, LOW, HIGH) are read/write.

Remote temperature data is represented by an 11-bit, two’s

complement word with an LSB (Least Significant Bit) equal

to 0.125˚C. The data format is a left justified 16-bit word

1.7 OPEN-DRAIN OUTPUTS

The SMBData, ALERT and T_CRIT_A outputs are open-

drain outputs and do not have internal pull-ups. A “high” level

will not be observed on these pins until pull-up current is

provided by some external source, typically a pull-up resis-

tor. Choice of resistor value depends on many system fac-

tors but, in general, the pull-up resistor should be as large as

possible. This will minimize any internal temperature reading

errors due to internal heating of the LM89. The maximum

resistance of the pull-up to provide a 2.1V high level, based

on LM89 specification for High Level Output Current with the

supply voltage at 3.0V, is 82kΩ(5%) or 88.7kΩ(1%).

1.8 DIODE FAULT DETECTION

The LM89 is equipped with operational circuitry designed to

detect fault conditions concerning the remote diode. In the

event that the D+ pin is detected as shorted to V

floating, the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register

is loaded with +127˚C, the Remote Temperature Low Byte

(RTLB) register is loaded with 0, and the OPEN bit (D2) in

the status register is set. As a result, if the Remote T_CRIT

setpoint register (RCS) is set to a value less than +127˚C the

ALERT and T_Crit output pins will be pulled low, if the Alert

Mask and T_Crit Mask are disabled. If the Remote HIGH

Setpoint High Byte Register (RHSHB) is set to a value less

than +127˚C then ALERT will be pulled low, if the Alert Mask

is disabled. The OPEN bit itself will not trigger and ALERT.

In the event that the D+ pin is shorted to ground or D−, the

Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register is loaded

with −128˚C (1000 0000) and the OPEN bit (D2) in the status

is beyond it’s operational limits, this temperature reading

represents this shorted fault condition. If the value in the

Remote Low Setpoint High Byte Register (RLSHB) is more

than −128˚C and the Alert Mask is disabled, ALERT will be

pulled low.

Remote diode temperature sensors that have been previ-

ously released and are competitive with the LM89 output a

code of 0˚C if the external diode is short-circuited. This

change is an improvement that allows a reading of 0˚C to be

truly interpreted as a genuine 0˚C reading and not a fault

condition.

1.9 COMMUNICATING WITH THE LM89

The data registers in the LM89 are selected by the Com-

mand Register. At power-up the Command Register is set to

“00”, the location for the Read Local Temperature Register.

The Command Register latches the last location it was set

to. Each data register in the LM89 falls into one of four types

of user accessibility:

1. Read only

2. Write only

3. Read/Write same address

4. Read/Write different address

AWrite to the LM89 will always include the address byte and

the command byte. A write to any register requires one data

byte.

Reading the LM89 can take place either of two ways:

1. If the location latched in the Command Register is cor-

rect (most of the time it is expected that the Command

isters because that will be the data most frequently read

from the LM89), then the read can simply consist of an

address byte, followed by retrieving the data byte.

2. If the Command Register needs to be set, then an

address byte, command byte, repeat start, and another

address byte will accomplish a read.

The data byte has the most significant bit first. At the end of

a read, the LM89 can accept either acknowledge or No

Acknowledge from the Master (No Acknowledge is typically

used as a signal for the slave that the Master has read its

last byte). It takes the LM89 31.25ms to measure the tem-

perature of the remote diode and internal diode. When re-

trieving all 10 bits from a previous remote diode temperature

measurement, the master must insure that all 10 bits are

from the same temperature conversion. This may be

achieved by using one-shot mode or by setting the conver-

sion rate and monitoring the busy bit such that no conversion

occurs in between reading the MSB and LSB of the last

temperature conversion.

1.0 Functional Description (Continued) 1.9.1 SMBus Timing Diagrams

1.10 SERIAL INTERFACE RESET

In the event that the SMBus Master is RESET while the

LM89 is transmitting on the SMBData line, the LM89 must be

returned to a known state in the communication protocol.

This may be done in one of two ways:

1. When SMBData is LOW, the LM89 SMBus state ma-

chine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBData

or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35ms (t

TIMEOUT

Note that according to SMBus specification 2.0 all de-

vices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK or SMB-

Data lines are held low for 25-35ms. Therefore, to insure

a timeout of all devices on the bus the SMBCLK or

SMBData lines must be held low for at least 35ms.

2. When SMBData is HIGH, have the master initiate an

SMBus start. The LM89 will respond properly to an

SMBus start condition at any point during the communi-

cation. After the start the LM89 will expect an SMBus

Address address byte.

1.11 DIGITAL FILTER

In order to suppress erroneous remote temperature readings

due to noise, the LM89 incorporates a user-configured digital

filter. The filter is accessed in the FILTER and ALERT CON-

1.12 FAULT QUEUE

In order to suppress erroneous ALERT or T_CRIT triggering

the LM89 incorporates a Fault Queue. The Fault Queue acts

to insure a remote temperature measurement is genuinely

beyond a HIGH, LOW or T_CRIT setpoint by not triggering

until three consecutive out of limit measurements have been

made, see Figure 10. The fault queue defaults off upon

power-up and may be activated by setting bit D0 in the

Configuration register (09h) to “1”.

1.13 ONE-SHOT REGISTER

The One-Shot register is used to initiate a single conversion

and comparison cycle when the device is in standby mode,

after which the device returns to standby. This is not a data

conversion. The data written to this address is irrelevant and

is not stored. A zero will always be read from this register.

3.0 Applications Hints

The LM89 can be applied easily in the same way as other

integrated-circuit temperature sensors, and its remote diode

sensing capability allows it to be used in new ways as well.

It can be soldered to a printed circuit board, and because the

path of best thermal conductivity is between the die and the

pins, its temperature will effectively be that of the printed

circuit board lands and traces soldered to the LM89’s pins.

This presumes that the ambient air temperature is almost the

same as the surface temperature of the printed circuit board;

if the air temperature is much higher or lower than the

surface temperature, the actual temperature of the LM89 die

will be at an intermediate temperature between the surface

and air temperatures. Again, the primary thermal conduction

path is through the leads, so the circuit board temperature

will contribute to the die temperature much more strongly

than will the air temperature.

To measure temperature external to the LM89’s die, use a

remote diode. This diode can be located on the die of a

target IC, allowing measurement of the IC’s temperature,

independent of the LM89’s temperature. The LM89 has been

LM89

3.0 Applications Hints (Continued)

optimized to measure the remote thermal diode of a 0.13

micron Pentium 4 or a Mobile Pentium 4 Processor-M pro-

cessor. A discrete diode can also be used to sense the

temperature of external objects or ambient air. Remember

that a discrete diode’s temperature will be affected, and often

dominated, by the temperature of its leads.

Most silicon diodes do not lend themselves well to this

application. It is recommended that a 2N3904 transistor

base emitter junction be used with the collector tied to the

base.

3.1 DIODE NON-IDEALITY

3.1.1 Diode Non-Ideality Factor Effect on Accuracy

When a transistor is connected as a diode, the following

relationship holds for variables V

, T and I

where:

•q = 1.6x10

−19

Coulombs (the electron charge),

•T = Absolute Temperature in Kelvin

•k = 1.38x10

−23

joules/K (Boltzmann’s constant),

•ηis the non-ideality factor of the process the diode is

manufactured on,

•I

= Saturation Current and is process dependent,

•I

= Forward Current through the base emitter junction

•V

= Base Emitter Voltage drop

In the active region, the -1 term is negligible and may be

eliminated, yielding the following equation

In the above equation, ηand I

are dependant upon the

process that was used in the fabrication of the particular

diode. By forcing two currents with a very controlled ratio (N)

and measuring the resulting voltage difference, it is possible

to eliminate the I

term. Solving for the forward voltage

difference yields the relationship:

The voltage seen by the LM89 also includes the I

voltage

drop of the series resistance. The non-ideality factor, η,is

the only other parameter not accounted for and depends on

the diode that is used for measurement. Since ∆V

proportional to both ηand T, the variations in ηcannot be

distinguished from variations in temperature. Since the non-

ideality factor is not controlled by the temperature sensor, it

will directly add to the inaccuracy of the sensor. For the

Pentium 4 and Mobile Pentium Processor-M Intel specifies a

±0.1% variation in ηfrom part to part. As an example,

assume a temperature sensor has an accuracy specification

of ±1˚C at room temperature of 25 ˚C and the process used

to manufacture the diode has a non-ideality variation of

±0.1%. The resulting accuracy of the temperature sensor at

room temperature will be:

ACC

=±1˚C+(

±0.1% of 298 ˚K) = ±1.4 ˚C

The additional inaccuracy in the temperature measurement

caused by η, can be eliminated if each temperature sensor is

calibrated with the remote diode that it will be paired with.

3.1.2 Compensating for Diode Non-Ideality

In order to compensate for the errors introduced by non-

ideality, the temperature sensor is calibrated for a particular

processor. National Semiconductor temperature sensors are

always calibrated to the typical non-ideality of a given pro-

cessor type. The LM89 is calibrated for the non-ideality of a

0.13 micron, Mobile Pentium 4, 1.0021. When a temperature

sensor calibrated for a particular processor type is used with

a different processor type or a given processor type has a

non-ideality that strays from the typical, errors are intro-

duced.

Temperature errors associated with non-ideality may be re-

duced in a specific temperature range of concern through

use of the offset registers (11h and 12h).

Please send an email to hardware.monitor.team@nsc.com

requesting further information on our recommended setting

of the offset register for different processor types.

3.2 PCB LAYOUT for MINIMIZING NOISE

In a noisy environment, such as a processor mother board,

layout considerations are very critical. Noise induced on

traces running between the remote temperature diode sen-

sor and the LM89 can cause temperature conversion errors.

Keep in mind that the signal level the LM89 is trying to

measure is in microvolts. The following guidelines should be

followed:

1. V

should be bypassed with a 0.1µF capacitor in par-

allel with 100pF. The 100pF capacitor should be placed

as close as possible to the power supply pin. A bulk

capacitance of approximately 10µF needs to be in the

near vicinity of the LM89.

2. A 2.2nF diode bypass capacitor is required to filter high

frequency noise. Place the 2.2nF capacitor as close as

possible to the LM89’s D+ and D− pins. Make sure the

traces to the 2.2nF capacitor are matched.

3. Ideally, the LM89 should be placed within 10cm of the

Processor diode pins with the traces being as straight,

short and identical as possible. Trace resistance of 1Ω

can cause as much as 1˚C of error. This error can be

compensated by using the Remote Temperature Offset

Registers, since the value placed in these registers will

automatically be subtracted from or added to the remote

temperature reading.

4. Diode traces should be surrounded by a GND guard ring

to either side, above and below if possible. This GND

guard should not be between the D+ and D− lines. In the

event that noise does couple to the diode lines it would

be ideal if it is coupled common mode. That is equally to

the D+ and D− lines.

5. Avoid routing diode traces in close proximity to power

supply switching or filtering inductors.

6. Avoid running diode traces close to or parallel to high

speed digital and bus lines. Diode traces should be kept

at least 2cm apart from the high speed digital traces.

7. If it is necessary to cross high speed digital traces, the

diode traces and the high speed digital traces should

cross at a 90 degree angle.

8. The ideal place to connect the LM89’s GND pin is as

close as possible to the Processors GND associated

with the sense diode.

9. Leakage current between D+ and GND should be kept

to a minimum. One nano-ampere of leakage can cause

as much as 1˚C of error in the diode temperature read-

ing. Keeping the printed circuit board as clean as pos-

sible will minimize leakage current.

Noise coupling into the digital lines greater than 400mVp-p

(typical hysteresis) and undershoot less than 500mV below

GND, may prevent successful SMBus communication with

the LM89. SMBus no acknowledge is the most common

symptom, causing unnecessary traffic on the bus. Although

the SMBus maximum frequency of communication is rather

low (100kHz max), care still needs to be taken to ensure

proper termination within a system with multiple parts on the

bus and long printed circuit board traces. An RC lowpass

filter with a 3db corner frequency of about 40MHz is included

on the LM89’s SMBCLK input. Additional resistance can be

added in series with the SMBData and SMBCLK lines to

further help filter noise and ringing. Minimize noise coupling

by keeping digital traces out of switching power supply areas

as well as ensuring that digital lines containing high speed

data communications cross at right angles to the SMBData

and SMBCLK lines.
