LM95213
2-Diode Input and Local Digital Temperature Sensor with
Two-Wire Interface and TCRIT Outputs
General Description
LM95213 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with a 2-wire
System Management Bus (SMBus) interface that can monitor
the temperature of two remote diodes as well as its own tem-
perature. The LM95213 can be used to very accurately mon-
itor the temperature of up to two external devices such as
microprocessors, graphics processors or diode-connected
2N3904s.
The LM95213 reports temperature in two different formats for
+127.875°C/–128°C range and 0°C/255°C range. The
LM95213 TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3 outputs are triggered
when any unmasked channel exceeds its corresponding pro-
grammable limit and can be used to shutdown the system, to
turn on the system fans or as a microcontroller interrupt func-
tion. The current status of the TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3
pins can be read back from the status registers. Mask regis-
ters are available for further control of the TCRIT outputs.
LM95213's remote temperature channels have pro-
grammable digital filters to minimize unwanted TCRIT events
when temperature spikes are encountered.
For optimum flexibility and accuracy each LM95213 channel
includes offset correction registers for targeting diodes other
than the 2N3904. A three level address pin allows connection
of up to 3 LM95213s to the same SMBus master. The
LM95213 includes power saving functions such as: pro-
grammable conversion rate, shutdown mode, and turn off of
unused channels.

1.0 Functional Description
LM95213 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with a 2-wire
System Management Bus (SMBus) interface that can monitor
the temperature of two remote diodes as well as its own tem-
perature. The LM95213 can be used to very accurately mon-
itor the temperature of up to two external devices such as
microprocessors, graphics processors or diode-connected
2N3904 transistor.
The LM95213 reports temperature in two different formats for
+127.875°C/–128°C range and 0°C/255°C range. The
LM95213 has a Sigma-Delta ADC (Analog-to-Digital Con-
verter) core which provides the first level of noise imunity. For
improved performance in a noisy environment the LM95213
includes programmable digital filters for Remote Diode 1 and
2 temperature readings. When the digital filters are invoked
the resolution for Remote Diode 1 and 2 readings increases
to 0.03125°C. For maximum flexibility and best accuracy the
LM95213 includes offset registers that allow calibration of
other diode types.
Diode fault detection circuitry in the LM95213 can detect the
absence or fault state of a remote diode: whether D+ is short-
ed to VDD, D- or ground, or whether D+ is floating.
The LM95213 TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3 active low out-
puts are triggered when any unmasked channel exceeds its
corresponding programmable limit and can be used to shut-
down the system, to turn on the system fans or as a micro-
controller interrupt function. The current status of the
TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3 pins can be read back from the
status registers via the SMBus interface. The remote chan-
nels have two separate limits each that control the TCRIT1
and TCRIT2 pins. The TCRIT3 pin shares the limits of the
TCRIT2 pin but allows for different masking options. All limits
have a shared programmable hysteresis register.
Remote Diode temperature channels have programmable
digital filters in order to avoid false triggering the TCRIT pins.
LM95213 has a three-level address pin to connect up to 3
devices to the same SMBus master. LM95213 also has pro-
grammable conversion rate register as well as a shutdown
mode for power savings. One round of conversions can be
triggered in shutdown mode by writing to the one-shot register
through the SMBus interface. LM95213 can be programmed
to turn off unused channels for more power savings.
The LM95213 register set has an 8-bit data structure and in-
cludes:

1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE
The LM95213 takes approximately 92 ms to convert the Local
Temperature, Remote Temperatures 1 and 2, and to update
all of its registers. These conversions for each thermal diode
are addressed in a round robin sequence. Only during the
conversion process the busy bit (D7) in Status register (02h)
is high. The conversion rate may be modified by the Conver-
sion Rate bits found in the Configuration Register (03h).
When the conversion rate is modified a delay is inserted be-
tween each round of conversions, the actual time for each
round remains at 92 ms (typical all channels enabled). The
time a round takes depends on the number of channels that
are on. Different conversion rates will cause the LM95213 to
draw different amounts of average supply current as shown
in Figure 1. This curve assumes all the channels are on. If
channels are turned off the average current will drop since the
round robin time will decrease and the shutdown time will in-
crease during each conversion interval.

1.2 POWER-ON-DEFAULT STATES

version.

1.3 SMBus INTERFACE
The LM95213 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the
SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBDAT line is bidirectional.
The LM95213 never drives the SMBCLK line and it does not
support clock stretching. According to SMBus specifications,
the LM95213 has a 7-bit slave address. Three SMBus device
address can be selected by connecting A0 (pin 6) to either
Low, Mid-Supply or High voltages. The LM95213 has the fol-
lowing SMBus slave address:

Mid-Supply 2Ah 010 1010
High 2Bh 010 1011
1.4 TEMPERATURE CONVERSION SEQUENCE
Each of the 3 temperature channels of LM95213 can be
turned OFF independent from each other via the Channel
Enable Register. Turning off unused channels will increase
the conversion speed in the fastest conversion speed mode.
If the slower conversion speed settings are used, disabling
unused channels will reduce the average power consumption
of LM95213.
1.5 DIGITAL FILTER
In order to suppress erroneous remote temperature readings
due to noise as well as increase the resolution of the temper-
ature, the LM95213 incorporates a digital filter for Remote 1
and 2 Temperature Channels. When a filter is enabled the
filtered readings are used for the TCRIT comparisons. There
are two possible digital filter settings that are enabled through
the Filter Setting Register at register address 0Fh. The filter
for each channel can be set according to the following table:
R1F[1:0] or R2F[1:0] Filter Setting
0 0 No Filter
0 1 Filter (equivalent to Level 2
filter of the LM86/LM89)

1.6 TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
Temperature data can only be read from the Local and Re-
mote Temperature value registers. The data format for all
temperature values is left justified 16-bit word available in two
8-bit registers. Unused bits will always report "0". All temper-
ature data is clamped and will not roll over when a tempera-
ture exceeds full-scale value.
Remote temperature data for all channels can be represented
by an 11-bit, two's complement word or unsigned binary word
with an LSb (Least Significant Bit) equal to 0.125°C.

1.7 SMBDAT OPEN-DRAIN OUTPUT
The SMBDAT output is an open-drain output and does not
have internal pull-ups. A “high” level will not be observed on
this pin until pull-up current is provided by some external
source, typically a pull-up resistor. Choice of resistor value
depends on many system factors but, in general, the pull-up
resistor should be as large as possible without effecting the
SMBus desired data rate. This will minimize any internal tem-
perature reading errors due to internal heating of the
LM95213. The maximum resistance of the pull-up to provide
a 2.1V high level, based on LM95213 specification for High
Level Output Current with the supply voltage at 3.0V, is 82
kΩ (5%) or 88.7 kΩ (1%).
1.8 TCRIT1, TCRIT2, AND TCRIT3 OUTPUTS
The LM95213's TCRIT pins are active-low open-drain outputs
and do not include internal pull-up resistors. A “high” level will
not be observed on these pins until pull-up current is provided
by some external source, typically a pull-up resistor. Choice
of resistor value depends on many system factors but, in gen-
eral, the pull-up resistor should be as large as possible without
effecting the performance of the device receiving the signal.
This will minimize any internal temperature reading errors due
to internal heating of the LM95213. The maximum resistance
of the pull-up to provide a 2.1V high level, based on LM95213
specification for High Level Output Current with the supply
voltage at 3.0V, is 82 kΩ (5%) or 88.7 kΩ (1%). The three
TCRIT pins can each sink 6 mA of current and still guarantee
a "Logic Low" output voltage of 0.4V. If all three pins are set
at maximum current this will cause a power dissipation of 7.2
mW. This power dissipation combined with a thermal resis-
tance of 77.8°C/W will cause the LM95213's junction temper-
ature to rise approximately 0.6°C and thus cause the Local
temperature reading to shift. This can only be cancelled out if
the environment that the LM95213 is enclosed in has stable
and controlled air flow over the LM95213, as airflow can
cause the thermal resistance to change dramatically.

comparison and status register logic. Figure 5 describes a

If enabled, local temperature is compared to the user pro-
grammable Local Tcrit Limit Register (Default Value = 85°C).
The result of this comparison is stored in Status Register 2,
Status Register 3 and Status Register 4 (see Figure 4).The
comparison result can trigger TCRIT1 pin, TCRIT2 pin or
TCRIT3 pin depending on the settings in the TCRIT1 Mask,
TCRIT2 Mask and TCRIT3 Mask Registers (see Figure 5).
The comparison result can also be read back from the Status
Register 2, Status Register 3 and Status Register 4.
If enabled, remote temperature 1 is compared to the user
programmable Remote 1 Tcrit-1 Limit Register (Default Value
110°C) and Remote 1 Tcrit-2 Limit Register (Default Value =
85°C). The result of this comparison is stored in Status Reg-
ister 2, Status Register 3 and Status Register 4 (see Figure
4). The comparison result can trigger TCRIT1 pin, TCRIT2 pin
or TCRIT3 pin depending on the settings in the TCRIT1 Mask,
TCRIT2 Mask and TRCIT3 Mask Registers (see Figure 5).
The comparison result can also be read back from the Status
Register 2, Status Register 3 and Status Register 4. The re-
mote temperature 2 operates in a similar manner to remote
temperature 1 using its associated user programmable limit
registers: Remote 2 Tcrit-1 Limit Register (Default Value 110°
C) and Remote 2 Tcrit-2 Limit Register (Default Value = 85°
C).

FIGURE 6. TCRIT response diagram (masking options not included)
The TCRIT response diagram of Figure 6 shows the local
temperature interaction with the Tcrit limit and hysteresis val-
ue. As can be seen in the diagram when the local temperature
exceeds the Tcrit limit register value the LTn Status bit is set
and the T_CRITn output(s) is/are activated. The Status bit(s)
and outputs are not deactivated until the temperature goes
below the value calculated by subtracting the Common Hys-
teresis value programmed from the limit. This diagram mainly
shows an example function of the hysteresis and is not meant
to show complete function of the possible settings and options
of all the TCRIT outputs and limit values.
1.10 DIODE FAULT DETECTION
The LM95213 is equipped with operational circuitry designed
to detect fault conditions concerning the remote diodes. In the
event that the D+ pin is detected as shorted to GND, D−,
VDD or D+ is floating, the Remote Temperature reading
is –128.000 °C if signed format is selected and 0 °C if un-
signed format is selected. In addition, the appropriate status
register bits RD1M or RD2M (D1 or D0) are set.
1.11 COMMUNICATING WITH THE LM95213
The data registers in the LM95213 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 LM95213 falls into one of three types
of user accessibility:
1. Read only
2. Write only
3. Write/Read same address
A Write to the LM95213 will always include the address byte
and the command byte. A write to any register requires one
data byte.
Reading the LM95213 can take place either of two ways:
1. If the location latched in the Command Register is correct
(most of the time it is expected that the Command
Register will point to one of the Read Temperature
Registers because that will be the data most frequently
read from the LM95213), 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 LM95213 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 LM95213 95 ms (typical, all channels en-
abled) to measure the temperature of the remote diodes and
internal diode. When retrieving all 11 bits from a previous re-
mote diode temperature measurement, the master must in-
sure that all 11 bits are from the same temperature
conversion. This may be achieved by reading the MSB reg-
ister first. The LSB will be locked after the MSB is read. The
LSB will be unlocked after being read. If the user reads MSBs
consecutively, each time the MSB is read, the LSB associated
with that temperature will be locked in and override the pre-
vious LSB value locked-in.

FIGURE 7. SMBus Timing Diagrams
1.12 SERIAL INTERFACE RESET
In the event that the SMBus Master is RESET while the
LM95213 is transmitting on the SMBDAT line, the LM95213
must be returned to a known state in the communication pro-
tocol. This may be done in one of two ways:
1. When SMBDAT is LOW, the LM95213 SMBus state
machine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBDAT
or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35ms (tTIMEOUT).
Note that according to SMBus specification 2.0 all
devices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK or
SMBDAT lines are held low for 25-35ms. Therefore, to
www.national.com 16
LM95213
insure a timeout of all devices on the bus the SMBCLK
or SMBDAT lines must be held low for at least 35ms.
2. When SMBDAT is HIGH, have the master initiate an
SMBus start. The LM95213 will respond properly to an
SMBus start condition at any point during the
communication. After the start the LM95213 will expect
an SMBus Address address byte.
1.13 ONE-SHOT CONVERSION
The One-Shot register is used to initiate a round of conver-
sions and comparisons when the device is in standby mode,
after which the device returns to standby. This is not a data
register and it is the write operation that causes the one-shot
conversion. The data written to this address is irrelevant and
is not stored. A zero will always be read from this register. All
the channels that are enabled in the Channel Enable Register
will be converted once and the TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and
TCRIT3 pins will reflect the comparison results based on this
round of conversion results of the channels that are not
masked.
2.0 LM95213 Registers
Command register selects which registers will be read from or written to. Data for this register should be transmitted during the
Command Byte of the SMBus write communication.

LM95213
3.0 Applications Hints
The LM95213 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 cir-
cuit board lands and traces soldered to the LM95213'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 LM95213 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 con-
tribute to the die temperature much more strongly than will the
air temperature.
To measure temperature external to the LM95213's die, in-
corporates remote diode sensing technology. This diode can
be located on the die of a target IC, allowing measurement of
the IC's temperature, independent of the LM95213's temper-
ature. A discrete diode can also be used to sense the tem-
perature of external objects or ambient air. Remember that a
discrete diode's temperature will be affected, and often dom-
inated, by the temperature of its leads. Most silicon diodes do
not lend themselves well to this application. It is recommend-
ed that an MMBT3904 transistor base emitter junction be
used with the collector tied to the base.
The LM95213 can measure a diode-connected transistor
such as the MMBT3904 or the thermal diode found in an AMD
processor or FPGA. The LM95213 has been optimized to
measure the remote thermal diode integrated in a typical
MMBT3904 transistor. The offset register can be used to cal-
ibrate for other thermal diodes easily. The LM9513 deos not
include TruTherm technology that allows sensing of sub-
micron geometry process thermal diodes. For this applicaiton
the LM95233 would be better suitted.
The LM95233 has been specifically optimized to measure the
remote thermal diode integrated in a typical Intel processor
on 65nm or 90 nm process or an MMBT3904 transistor. Using
the Remote Diode Model Select register found in the
LM95233 any of the two remote inputs can be optimized for
a typical Intel processor on 65nm or 90nm process or an
MMBT3904.
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 re-
lationship holds for variables VBE, T and IF:
(1)
where:
q = 1.6×10−19 Coulombs (the electron charge),
T = Absolute Temperature in Kelvin
k = 1.38×10−23 joules/K (Boltzmann's constant),
η is the non-ideality factor of the process the diode is
manufactured on,
IS = Saturation Current and is process dependent,
If = Forward Current through the base-emitter junction
VBE = Base-Emitter Voltage drop
In the active region, the -1 term is negligible and may be elim-
inated, yielding the following equation
(2)
In Equation 2, η and IS are dependant upon the process that
was used in the fabrication of the particular diode. By forcing
two currents with a very controlled ratio(IF2 / IF1) and measur-
ing the resulting voltage difference, it is possible to eliminate
the IS term. Solving for the forward voltage difference yields
the relationship:
(3)
Solving Equation 3 for temperature yields:
(4)
Equation 4 holds true when a diode connected transistor such
as the MMBT3904 is used. When this “diode” equation is ap-
plied to an integrated diode such as a processor transistor
with its collector tied to GND as shown in Figure 8 it will yield
a wide non-ideality spread. This wide non-ideality spread is
not due to true process variation but due to the fact that
Equation 4 is an approximation.
National invented TruTherm beta cancellation technology us-
es the transistor equation, Equation 5, which is a more accu-
rate representation of the topology of the thermal diode found
in some sub-micron FPGAs or processors.

FIGURE 8. Thermal Diode Current Paths
TruTherm technology can be found in the LM95233 two chan-
nel remote diode sensor that is pin and register compatible
with the LM95213. The LM95213 does ot support this tech-
nology.
3.1.2 Calculating Total System Accuracy
The voltage seen by the LM95213 also includes the IFRS volt-
age 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 ΔVBE is
proportional to both η and T, the variations in η cannot 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 for
Intel processor on 65 nm process, Intel specifies a +4.06%/
−0.897% variation in η from part to part when the processor
diode is measured by a circuit that assumes diode equation,
Equation 4, as true. As an example, assume a temperature
sensor has an accuracy specification of ±1.0°C at a temper-
ature of 80°C (353 Kelvin) and the processor diode has a non-
ideality variation of +1.19%/−0.27%. The resulting system
accuracy of the processor temperature being sensed will be:
TACC = + 1.0°C + (+4.06% of 353 K) = +15.3 °C
and
TACC = - 1.0°C + (−0.89% of 353 K) = −4.1 °C
The next error term to be discussed is that due to the series
resistance of the thermal diode and printed circuit board
traces. The thermal diode series resistance is specified on
most processor data sheets. For Intel processors in 65 nm
process, this is specified at 4.52 typical. The LM95213 ac-
commodates the typical series resistance of Intel Processor
on 65 nm process. The error that is not accounted for is the
spread of the processor's series resistance, that is 2.79 to
6.24 or ±1.73. The equation to calculate the temperature
error due to series resistance (TER) for the LM95213 is simply:
(6)
Solving Equation 6 for RPCB equal to ±1.73 results in the
additional error due to the spread in the series resistance of
±1.07°C. The spread in error cannot be canceled out, as it
would require measuring each individual thermal diode de-
vice. This is quite difficult and impractical in a large volume
production environment.
Equation 6 can also be used to calculate the additional error
caused by series resistance on the printed circuit board. Since
the variation of the PCB series resistance is minimal, the bulk
of the error term is always positive and can simply be can-
celled out by subtracting it from the output readings of the
LM95213.

3.1.3 Compensating for Different Non-Ideality
In order to compensate for the errors introduced by non-ide-
ality, the temperature sensor is calibrated for a particular
www.national.com 30
LM95213
processor. National Semiconductor temperature sensors are
always calibrated to the typical non-ideality and series resis-
tance of a given processor type. The LM95213 is calibrated
for non-ideality factor and series resistance values supporting
the MMBT3904 transistor without the requirement for addi-
tional trims. When a temperature sensor calibrated for a
particular processor type is used with a different processor
type, additional errors are introduced.
Temperature errors associated with non-ideality of different
processor types may be reduced in a specific temperature
range of concern through use of software calibration. Typical
Non-ideality specification differences cause a gain variation
of the transfer function, therefore the center of the tempera-
ture range of interest should be the target temperature for
calibration purposes. The following equation can be used to
calculate the temperature correction factor (TCF) required to
compensate for a target non-ideality differing from that sup-
ported by the LM95213.
(7)
where
ηS = LM95213 non-ideality for accuracy specification
ηPROCESSOR = Processor thermal diode typical non-ideality
TCR = center of the temperature range of interest in °C
The correction factor should be directly added to the temper-
ature reading produced by the LM95213. For example when
using the LM95213 to measure a AMD Athlon processor, with
a typical non-ideality of 1.008, for a temperature range of 60
°C to 100 °C the correction factor would calculate to:
(8)
Therefore, 1.75°C should be subtracted from the temperature
readings of the LM95213 to compensate for the differing typ-
ical non-ideality target.
3.2 PCB LAYOUT FOR MINIMIZING NOISE
30013817
FIGURE 9. Ideal Diode Trace Layout
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 sensor
and the LM95213 can cause temperature conversion errors.
Keep in mind that the signal level the LM95213 is trying to
measure is in microvolts. The following guidelines should be
followed:
1. VDD should be bypassed with a 0.1 µF capacitor in
parallel with 100 pF. The 100 pF capacitor should be
placed as close as possible to the power supply pin. A
bulk capacitance of approximately 10 µF needs to be in
the near vicinity of the LM95213.
2. A 100 pF diode bypass capacitor is recommended to filter
high frequency noise but may not be necessary. Make
sure the traces to the 100 pF capacitor are matched.
Place the filter capacitors close to the LM95213 pins.
3. Ideally, the LM95213 should be placed within 10 cm 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 0.62°C of error. This error
can be compensated by using simple software offset
compensation.
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 2 cm 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 LM95213's GND pin is as
close as possible to the Processors GND associated with
the sense diode.
9. Leakage current between D+ and GND and between D+
and D− should be kept to a minimum. Thirteen nano-
amperes of leakage can cause as much as 0.2°C of error
in the diode temperature reading. Keeping the printed
circuit board as clean as possible will minimize leakage
current.
Noise coupling into the digital lines greater than 400 mVp-p
(typical hysteresis) and undershoot less than 500 mV below
GND, may prevent successful SMBus communication with
the LM95213. SMBus no acknowledge is the most common
symptom, causing unnecessary traffic on the bus. Although
the SMBus maximum frequency of communication is rather
low (100 kHz 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 3 dB corner frequency of about 40 MHz is included on
the LM95213's SMBCLK input. Additional resistance can be
added in series with the SMBDAT and SMBCLK lines to fur-
ther 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 SMBDAT and
SMBCLK lines.
