Shutdown Mode
For power-sensitive applications, the DS75LX offers a low-power shutdown mode. The SD bit in the configuration
register controls shutdown mode. When SD is changed to 1, the conversion in progress is completed and the result
is stored in the temperature register after which the DS75LX goes into a low-power standby state. The O.S. output
is cleared if the thermostat is operating in interrupt mode, and O.S remains unchanged in comparator mode. The 2-
wire interface remains operational in shutdown mode, and writing a 0 to the SD bit returns the DS75LX to normal
operation.
OPERATION—THERMOSTAT
The DS75LX thermostat has two operating modes, comparator mode and interrupt mode, which activate and
deactivate the open-drain thermostat output (O.S.) based on user-programmable trip-points (T
DS75LX powers up with the thermostat in comparator mode with active-low O.S. polarity and with the
overtemperature trip-point (T
these power-up settings are compatible with the application, the DS75LX can be used as a stand-alone thermostat
(i.e., no 2-wire communication required). If interrupt mode operation, active-high O.S. polarity, or different T

In both operating modes, the user can program the thermostat fault tolerance, which sets how many consecutive
temperature readings (1, 2, 4, or 6) must fall outside of the thermostat limits before the thermostat output is
triggered. The fault tolerance is set by the F1 and F0 bits in the configuration register and at power-up the fault
tolerance is 1.

The active state of the O.S. output can be changed by the POL bit in the configuration register. The power-up
default is active low.
If the user does not wish to use the thermostat capabilities of the DS75LX, the O.S. output should be left floating.

Comparator Mode
When the thermostat is in comparator mode, O.S. can be programmed to operate with any amount of hysteresis.
The O.S. output becomes active when the measured temperature exceeds the T
times as defined by the F1 and F0 fault tolerance (FT) bits in the configuration register. O.S. then stays active until
the first time the temperature falls below the value stored in T

Interrupt Mode
In interrupt mode, the O.S. output first becomes active when the measured temperature exceeds the T
