GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADT7312 is a ±1°C accurate digital temperature sensor
that operates over a very wide temperature range of −55°C to
+175°C and is available in die form only. It contains an internal
band gap reference, a temperature sensor, and a 16-bit analogto-digital converter (ADC) to monitor and digitize the temperature to a resolution of 0.0078°C. The default ADC resolution
is 13 bits (0.0625°C). The ADC resolution can be changed to
16 bits (0.0078°C) using the serial interface.
The ADT7312 is guaranteed to operate over supply voltages
from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. At 3.6 V operation, the average supply
current is typically 245 μA. The ADT7312 has a shutdown
mode that powers down the device, resulting in a typical
shutdown current of 2.5 μA at 3.6 V. The ADT7312 is rated
for operation over the −55°C to +175°C temperature range.
The CT pin is an open-drain output that becomes active when
the temperature exceeds a programmable critical temperature
limit. The default critical temperature limit is 147°C. The INT
pin is also an open-drain output that becomes active when the
temperature exceeds a programmable limit. The INT pin and
the CT pin can operate in either comparator or interrupt mode.

THEORY OF OPERATION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ADT7312 is a ±1°C accurate digital temperature sensor
that uses a 16-bit ADC to monitor and digitize the temperature
to a resolution of 0.0078°C. By default, the ADC resolution is
set to 13 bits (0.0625°C).
An internal temperature sensor generates a voltage proportional
to absolute temperature; this voltage is compared to an internal
voltage reference and input into a precision digital modulator.
The internal temperature sensor has high accuracy and linearity
over the entire rated temperature range without the need for
correction or calibration by the user.
The sensor output is digitized by a sigma-delta (Σ-∆) modulator, also known as a charge balance type ADC. This type of
converter uses time domain oversampling and a high accuracy
comparator to deliver 16 bits of resolution in an extremely
compact circuit.
CONVERTER ARCHITECTURE
The Σ-∆ modulator consists of an input sampler, a summing
network, an integrator, a comparator, and a 1-bit digital-toanalog converter (DAC). This architecture creates a negative
feedback loop and minimizes the integrator output by changing
the duty cycle of the comparator output in response to input
voltage changes. The comparator samples the output of the
integrator at a much higher rate than the input sampling frequency. This oversampling spreads the quantization noise over
a much wider band than that of the input signal, improving
overall noise performance and increasing accuracy.
The modulated output of the comparator is encoded using
a circuit technique that results in SPI temperature data.
The ADT7312 can be configured to operate in any one of the
following operating modes:
• Normal mode (continuous conversion mode)
• One-shot mode
• 1 SPS mode
• Shutdown mode
NORMAL MODE (CONTINUOUS CONVERSION
MODE)
In normal mode (default power-on mode), the ADT7312 runs
an automatic conversion sequence. During this automatic conversion sequence, a conversion typically takes 240 ms to complete.
The ADT7312 is continuously converting: as soon as one temperature conversion is completed, another temperature conversion
begins. Each temperature conversion result is stored in the
temperature value register (Register Address 0x02) and is available through the SPI interface. In continuous conversion mode,
the read operation provides the most recent converted result.
On power-up, the first conversion is a fast conversion, taking
typically 6 ms. If the temperature exceeds 147°C, the CT pin is
asserted low. If the temperature exceeds 64°C, the INT pin is
asserted low. Fast conversion temperature accuracy is typically
within ±5°C.
The conversion clock for the part is generated internally. No
external clock is required except when reading from and
writing to the serial port.
The measured temperature value is compared with a critical
temperature limit (stored in the 16-bit T
a high temperature limit (stored in the 16-bit T
register), and a low temperature limit (stored in the 16-bit T
setpoint register). If the measured value exceeds the T

ONE-SHOT MODE
When one-shot mode is enabled, the ADT7312 immediately
completes a conversion and then goes into shutdown mode.
The one-shot mode is useful when one of the circuit design
priorities is to reduce power consumption.
To enable one-shot mode, set Bits[6:5] of the configuration register (Register Address 0x01) to 01. After writing to the operation
mode bits (Bits[6:5]), wait at least 240 ms before reading back the
temperature from the temperature value register (see Figure 11).
This delay ensures that the ADT7312 has adequate time to power
up and complete a conversion.
To obtain an updated temperature conversion, reset Bits[6:5]
of the configuration register to 01.
CT and INT Operation in One-Shot Mode
Figure 12 illustrates the operation of the CT pin in one-shot
mode when the T
overtemperature limit is exceeded. Note
CRIT
that in interrupt mode, a read from any register resets the CT
and INT pins. (For more information about interrupt mode and
comparator mode, see the Undertemperature and Overtemperature
Detection section.)

temperature falls below the T

When using one-shot mode, ensure that the refresh rate is
appropriate to the application being used.

1 SPS MODE
In 1 SPS mode, the part performs one measurement per second.
A conversion takes only 60 ms, and the part remains in the idle
state for the remaining 940 ms period. To enable 1 SPS mode, set
Bits[6:5] of the configuration register (Register Address 0x01)
to 10.
SHUTDOWN MODE
The ADT7312 can be placed in shutdown mode by setting Bits[6:5]
of the configuration register (Register Address 0x01) to 11. The
ADT7312 can be taken out of shutdown mode by setting Bits[6:5]
to 00 in the configuration register. The ADT7312 typically takes
1 ms (with a 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor) to come out of shutdown
mode. The conversion result from the last conversion prior to
shutdown can still be read from the ADT7312 even when it is
in shutdown mode.
When the part is taken out of shutdown mode, the internal clock
is restarted and a conversion is initiated.
FAULT QUEUE
Bits[1:0] of the configuration register (Register Address 0x01)
are used to configure the fault queue. Up to four faults are provided to prevent false tripping of the INT and CT pins when
the ADT7312 is used in a noisy temperature environment. The
number of faults set in the queue must occur consecutively to
set the INT and CT outputs.
For example, if the fault queue is set to four, four consecutive
temperature conversion results must exceed a temperature
limit before the INT or CT pin is activated. If two consecutive
temperature conversions exceed a temperature limit but the
third conversion does not exceed a limit, the fault count is reset
to zero.

TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
One LSB of the ADC corresponds to 0.0078°C in 16-bit mode.
The ADC can theoretically measure a temperature range of
255°C, but the ADT7312 is guaranteed to measure a low value
temperature limit of −55°C to a high value temperature limit of
+175°C. The temperature measurement result is stored in the
16-bit temperature value register (Register Address 0x02). It is
compared with the high temperature limits stored in the T
setpoint register and the T
setpoint register. The temperature

measurement result is also compared with the low temperature
limit stored in the T
setpoint register.
LOW
Temperature data in the temperature value register, the T
setpoint register, the T

HIGH
LOW
register is represented by a 13-bit, twos complement word. The
MSB is the temperature sign bit. When the part is powered up, the
three LSBs, Bits[2:0], are not part of the temperature conversion
result, but are flag bits for T
CRIT
, T

, and T
. Tabl e 6 shows
LOW
the 13-bit temperature data format without Bits[2:0].
The number of bits in the temperature data-word can be
extended to 16 bits, twos complement, by setting Bit 7 of the
configuration register (Register Address 0x01) to 1. When using
a 16-bit temperature data value, Bits[2:0] are the LSBs of the
temperature value. The default power-on configuration is a
13-bit temperature data value.
Reading back the temperature from the temperature value
register requires a 2-byte read. Designers who use a 9-bit temperature data format can still use the ADT7312 by ignoring the
four LSBs of the 13-bit temperature value. These four LSBs are

SERIAL INTERFACE
Figure 13. Typical SPI Interface Connection
The ADT7312 has a 4-wire serial peripheral interface (SPI).
The interface has a data input pin (DIN) for writing data to the
device, a data output pin (DOUT) for reading data back from
the device, and a data clock pin (SCLK) for clocking data into
and out of the device. A chip select pin (
the ADT7312.
CS
is required for correct operation of the serial
CS
) enables or disables
interface. Data is clocked out of the ADT7312 on the falling
edge of SCLK; data is clocked into the device on the rising edge
of SCLK.
SPI COMMAND BYTE
All data transactions on the bus begin with the master taking
CS
from high to low and sending out the command byte. The
command byte indicates to the ADT7312 whether the transaction
is a read or a write and provides the address of the register for
the data transfer. Tabl e 16 shows the command byte.

Bit C7, Bit C2, Bit C1, and Bit C0 of the command byte must all
be set to 0 to successfully begin a bus transaction. The SPI interface does not work correctly if a 1 is written to any of these bits.
Bit C6 is the read/write bit: 1 indicates a read, and 0 indicates
a write.
Bits[C5:C3] contain the target register address. One register can
be read from or written to per bus transaction.

SCLK
WRITING DATA
Data is written to the ADT7312 in 8 bits or 16 bits, depending
on the addressed register. The first byte written to the device is
the command byte, with the read/write bit set to 0. The master
then supplies the 8-bit or 16-bit input data on the DIN line.
The ADT7312 clocks the data into the register addressed in the
command byte on the rising edge of SCLK. The master ends the
write transaction by pulling
CS
CS
high.
Figure 14 shows a write to an 8-bit register, and Figure 15 shows
a write to a 16-bit register.
The master must begin a new write transaction on the bus, for
every register write. Only one register is written to per bus
transaction.

READING DATA
A read transaction begins when the master writes the command
byte to the ADT7312 with the read/write bit set to 1. The master
then supplies 8 or 16 clock pulses, depending on the addressed
register, and the ADT7312 clocks data out of the addressed register on the DOUT line. Data is clocked out on the first falling
edge of SCLK following the command byte. The master ends
the read transaction by pulling
CS
high.
Figure 16 shows a read from an 8-bit register, and Figure 17
shows a read from a 16-bit register.
INTERFACING TO DSPs OR MICROCONTROLLERS
The ADT7312 can operate with CS used as a frame synchronization signal. This setup is useful for DSP interfaces. In this case,
the first bit (MSB) is effectively clocked out by

can continue to run between data transfers, provided that the

CS
because CS
can be tied to ground, and the serial interface operated in a
3-wire mode. DIN, DOUT, and SCLK are used to communicate
with the ADT7312 in this mode.
For microcontroller interfaces, it is recommended that SCLK
idle high between data transfers.
RESETTING THE SERIAL INTERFACE
The serial interface can be reset by writing a series of 1s on the
DIN input. If a Logic 1 is written to the ADT7312 DIN line for
at least 32 serial clock cycles, the serial interface is reset. This
ensures that the interface can be reset to a known state if the
connection is lost due to a software error or a glitch in the system.
A reset returns the serial interface to the state in which it waits
for a write to one of the registers in the ADT7312. This operation
resets the contents of all registers to their power-on default values.
Following a reset, the user should allow a delay of 500 μs before
addressing the serial interface.

temperature. Figure 20 shows the redundant critical generator
assuming control when the temperature reaches 180°C by activating the CT output; this circuit does not deactivate the CT
output until the temperature reaches 138°C. The redundant critical

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
THERMAL RESPONSE TIME
Thermal response is a function of the thermal mass of the
temperature sensor, but it is also heavily influenced by the
mass of the object that the IC is mounted to. For example, a
large PCB containing large amounts of copper tracking can
act as a large heat sink and slow the thermal response. For a
faster thermal response, it is recommended that the sensor
be mounted on a PCB that is as small as possible.
SUPPLY DECOUPLING
The ADT7312 must have a decoupling capacitor connected
between V
and GND; otherwise, incorrect temperature read-

ings are obtained. A 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor, such as a high
frequency ceramic type, must be used and mounted as close as
possible to the V
pads of the ADT7312.
DD
If possible, the ADT7312 should be powered directly from the
system power supply (see Figure 21). This arrangement isolates
the analog section from the logic-switching transients. Even if
a separate power supply trace is not available, generous supply
bypassing reduces supply line induced errors. Local supply
bypassing consisting of a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is critical for
the temperature accuracy specifications to be achieved.
Figure 21. Use of Separate Traces to Reduce Power Supply Noise
POWERING FROM A SWITCHING REGULATOR
Precision analog devices such as the ADT7312 require a wellfiltered power source. If the ADT7312 is powered from a
switching regulator, noise can be generated above 50 kHz that
may affect the temperature accuracy specifications. To prevent
this, an RC filter should be used between the power supply and
the ADT7312 V
be carefully considered to ensure that the peak value of the supply
noise is less than 1 m V. The RC filter should be mounted as far
away as possible from the ADT7312 to ensure that the thermal
mass is kept as low as possible.

DD
TEMPERATURE MONITORING
The ADT7312 is ideal for monitoring the thermal environment
of high temperature automotive applications. The ADT7312
measures and converts the temperature at the surface of its own
semiconductor chip.
When the ADT7312 is used to measure the temperature of a
nearby heat source, the thermal impedance between the heat
source and the ADT7312 must be considered. When the thermal
impedance is determined, the temperature of the heat source
can be inferred from the ADT7312 output. Most of the heat
transferred from the heat source to the thermal sensor on the
ADT7312 die is routed via the copper traces, the bond pads,
and GND.
Therefore, to measure the temperature of a heat source, it is
recommended that the thermal resistance between the GND
pads of the ADT7312 and the GND of the heat source be
reduced as much as possible.
QUICK GUIDE TO MEASURING TEMPERATURE
To measure temperature in continuous conversion mode
(default power-on mode), follow these steps.
1. After power-up, reset the serial interface (load 32
consecutive 1s on DIN). This step ensures that all
internal circuitry is correctly initialized.
2. Verify the setup by reading the device ID (Register
Address 0x03). It should read 0xC3.
3. After consistent consecutive readings are obtained from
the device ID register, read the following registers:
• Configuration register (Register Address 0x01)
• T
• T
• T
4. Compare the values in these registers to the default values
listed in Ta b l e 7 . If all the readings match Tab l e 7, the
interface is operational.
5. Write to the configuration register (Register Address 0x01)
to set the ADT7312 to the desired configuration. Read the
temperature value register (Register Address 0x02). It
should produce a valid temperature measurement.
