Description

The MAX6695/MAX6696 are precise, dual-remote, andlocal digital temperature sensors. They accurately mea-sure the temperature of their own die and two remotediode-connected transistors, and report the tempera-ture in digital form on a 2-wire serial interface. Theremote diode is typically the emitter-base junction of acommon-collector PNP on aCPU, FPGA, GPU, or ASIC.

The 2-wire serial interface of MAX6696 accepts standard systemmanagement bus (SMBus^TM) commands such as WriteByte,Read Byte, Send Byte, and Receive Byte to readthe temperature data and program the alarm thresholdsand conversion rate. The MAX6695/MAX6696 can func-tion autonomously with a programmable conversionrate, which allows control of supply current and temper-ature update rate to match system needs. For conver-sion rates of 2Hz or less, the temperature isrepresented as 10 bits + sign with a resolution of+0.125. When the conversion rate is 4Hz, output datais 7 bits + sign with a resolution of +1. The MAX6695/MAX6696 also include an SMBus timeout feature to enhance system reliability.

Remote temperature sensing accuracy is ±1.5 be-tween +60 and +100 with no calibration needed.The MAX6695/MAX6696 measure temperatures from-40 to +125. In addition to the SMBus ALERT out-put, the MAX6695/MAX6696 feature two overtempera-ture limit indicators (OT 1 and OT 2), which are activeonly while the temperature is above the correspondingprogrammable temperature limits. The OT 1 and OT 2outputs are typically used for fan control, clock throt-tling, or system shutdown.

The MAX6695 has a fixed SMBus address. TheMAX6696 has nine different pin-selectable SMBusaddresses. The MAX6695 is available in a 10-pinMAX^®and the MAX6696 is available in a 16-pin QSOPpackage. Both operate throughout the -40 to +125temperature range.
