7-Channel Precision Temperature Monitor
General Description
Features
♦ Six Thermal-Diode Inputs
♦ Local Temperature Sensor
The MAX6689 precision multichannel temperature sen-
sor monitors its own temperature and the temperatures
of up to six external diode-connected transistors. All
temperature channels have programmable alert thresh-
olds. Channels 1, 4, 5, and 6 also have programmable
overtemperature thresholds. When the measured tem-
perature of a channel exceeds the respective thresh-
old, a status bit is set in one of the status registers. Two
open-drain outputs, OVERT and ALERT, assert corre-
sponding to these bits in the status register.
♦ 1°C Remote Temperature Accuracy (+60°C to +100°C)
♦ Temperature Monitoring Begins at POR for Fail-
Safe System Protection
♦ ALERT and OVERT Outputs for Interrupts,
Throttling, and Shutdown
♦ STBY Input for Hardware Standby Mode
♦ Small, 20-Pin QSOP and TSSOP Packages
♦ 2-Wire SMBus Interface
The 2-wire serial interface supports the standard system
management bus (SMBus™) protocols: write byte, read
byte, send byte, and receive byte for reading the tem-
perature data and programming the alarm thresholds.
