Dual Channel Temperature Sensor
and Overtemperature Alarm
ADT7482
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADT74821 is a three-channel digital thermometer and
undertemperature/overtemperature alarm for PCs and thermal
management systems. It can measure the temperature in two
remote locations, such as in the remote thermal diode in a CPU
or GPU, or using a discrete diode connected transistor. This
device also measures its own ambient temperature.
1 local and 2 remote temperature sensors
0.25°C resolution/1°C accuracy on remote channels
1°C resolution/1°C accuracy on local channel
Automatically cancels up to 1.5 kΩ (typ) of resistance in
series with the remote sensors
Extended, switchable temperature measurement range 0°C
to +127°C (default) or −55°C to +150°C
One feature of the ADT7482 is series resistance cancellation
where up to 1.5 kΩ (typical) of resistance in series with each of
the temperature monitoring diodes can be automatically
cancelled from the temperature result, allowing noise filtering.
The temperature of the remote thermal diodes and ambient
temperature can be measured accurate to 1°C. The tempera-
ture measurement range, which defaults to 0°C to 127°C, can be
switched to a wider measurement range of from −55°C to +150°C.
