Temperature register
The Temperature register is a two-byte (16-bit) “Read only” register (see
page
register in two’s complement format, and the contents of this register are updated each time
the T-to-D conversion is finished.
The user can read data from the Temperature register at any time. When a T-to-D
conversion is completed, the new data is loaded into a comparator buffer to evaluate fault
conditions, and will update the Temperature register if a read cycle is not ongoing. The
STLM75 is continuously evaluating fault conditions regardless of READ or WRITE activity
on the bus. If a READ is ongoing, the previous temperature will be read. The readable
temperature will be updated upon the completion of the next T-to-D conversion that is not
masked by a read cycle.
All unused bits following the digital temperature will be zero. The MSB position of the
Temperature register always contains the sign bit for the digital temperature, and Bit14
contains the temperature MSB. All bits in the Temperature register default to zero at power-
up.

These are comparable formats to the LM75.

The T
programmable upper trip-point temperature for the thermal alarm in two’s complement
format (see
0000 0000).
The format of the T
position contains the sign bit for the digital temperature and Bit14 contains the temperature
MSB.
For 9-bit conversions, the trip-point temperature is defined by the 9 MSBs of the T
register, and all remaining bits are “Don’t cares”.
