THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADT7483A is a local and 2x remote temperature sensor
and over/under temperature alarm. When the ADT7483A is
operating normally, the on-board ADC operates in a free-
running mode. The analog input multiplexer alternately selects
either the on-chip temperature sensor or one of the remote
temperature sensors to measure its local temperature. The ADC
digitizes these signals, and the results are stored in the local,
Remote 1, and Remote 2 temperature value registers.
The local and remote measurement results are compared with
the corresponding high, low, and THERM temperature limits
stored in on-chip registers. Out-of-limit comparisons generate
flags that are stored in the status register. A result that exceeds
the high temperature limit, the low temperature limit, or a
remote diode open circuit causes the ALERT output to assert
low. Likewise, exceeding THERM temperature limits causes the
THERM output to assert low. The ALERT output can be
reprogrammed as a second THERM output.
The limit registers can be programmed, and the device
controlled and configured, via the serial SMBus. The contents
of any register can also be read back via the SMBus.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT METHOD
A simple method of measuring temperature is to exploit the
negative temperature coefficient of a diode, measuring the base-

standby mode.

null the effect of the absolute value of V
device to device. The technique used in the ADT7483A is to
measure the change in V
different currents.
Figure 15 shows the input signal conditioning used to measure
the output of a remote temperature sensor. This figure shows
the remote sensor as a substrate transistor, but it could equally
be a discrete transistor. If a discrete transistor is used, the
collector is not grounded and should be linked to the base. To
prevent ground noise interfering with the measurement, the
more negative terminal of the sensor is not referenced to ground
but is biased above ground by an internal diode at the D− input.
C1 can be optionally added as a noise filter (recommended
maximum value 1,000 pF).
To measure ΔV
switched among two related currents, I and N × I. The currents
through the temperature diode are switched between I and N × I,
giving ΔV
measurement.
The resulting ΔV
filter to remove noise and then to a chopper-stabilized
amplifier. This amplifies and rectifies the waveform to produce
a dc voltage proportional to ΔV
voltage and produces a temperature measurement. To reduce
the effects of noise, digital filtering is performed by averaging
the results of 16 measurement cycles for low conversion rates.
At rates of 16, 32, and 64 conversions/second, no digital
averaging takes place.
Signal conditioning and measurement of the local temperature
sensor is performed in the same manner.
