General Description
0.03125°C LSb remote temperature resolution with digital
LM95233 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with a 2-wire
filter enabled
System Management Bus (SMBus) interface that can monitor
the temperature of two remote diodes as well as its own tem-
+127.875°C/–128°C and 0°C/255°C remote ranges

Programmable digital filters and analog front end filter
perature. The LM95233 can be used to very accurately mon-
itor the temperature of up to two external devices such as
microprocessors, graphics processors or diode-connected
2N3904s. The LM95233's TruTherm™ BJT beta compensa-
tion technology allows sensing of 90nm or 65nm process
thermal diodes accurately.
Remote diode fault detection, model selection and offset
correction
Mask and status register support

3 programmable TCRIT outputs with programmable
shared hysteresis
The LM95233 reports temperature in two different formats for
+127.875°C/–128°C range and 0°C/255°C range. The
LM95233 TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3 outputs are triggered
when any unmasked channel exceeds its corresponding pro-
grammable limit and can be used to shutdown the system, to
turn on the system fans or as a microcontroller interrupt func-
tion. The current status of the TCRIT1, TCRIT2 and TCRIT3
pins can be read back from the status registers. Mask regis-
ters are available for further control of the TCRIT outputs.
LM95233's remote temperature channels have pro-
grammable digital filters to minimize unwanted TCRIT events
when temperature spikes are encountered.
Programmable conversion rate and shutdown mode one-
shot conversion control
SMBus 2.0 compatible interface, supports TIMEOUT

For optimum flexibility and accuracy each LM95233 channel
includes, registers for sub-micron process or 2N3904 diode
model selection as well as offset correction. A three level ad-
dress pin allows connection of up to 3 LM95233s to the same
SMBus master. The LM95233 includes power saving func-
tions such as: programmable conversion rate, shutdown
mode, and turn off of unused channels.
