GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7414/AD7415 is a complete temperature monitoring
system in 6-lead and 5-lead SOT-23 packages. It contains a
band gap temperature sensor and a 10-bit ADC to monitor and
digitize the temperature reading to a resolution of 0.25°C.
The AD7414/AD7415 provides a 2-wire serial interface that is
compatible with SMBus and I
2
C interfaces. The part comes in
four versions: the AD7414/AD7415-0, AD7414/AD7415-1,
AD7414-2, and AD7414-3. The AD7414/AD7415-0 and
AD7414/AD7415-1 versions provide a choice of three different
SMBus addresses for each version. All four AD7414 versions
give the possibility of eight different I
AD7415 versions allow up to six I
2
C addresses while the two
2
C addresses to be used.
The AD7414/AD7415’s 2.7 V supply voltage, low supply
current, serial interface, and small package size make it ideal for
a variety of applications, including personal computers, office
equipment, cellular phones, and domestic appliances.
In the AD7414, on-chip registers can be programmed with high
and low temperature limits, and an open-drain overtemperature
indicator output (ALERT) becomes active when a programmed limit
is exceeded. A configuration register allows programming of the
state of the ALERT output (active high or active low). This
output can be used as an interrupt or as an SMBus alert.

These current values can be used to determine average power consumption at different one-shot conversion rates. Average power consumption at the automatic conversion rate
of 1.25 kHz is 940 µW.
5
This peak supply current is required for 29 µs (the conversion time plus power-up time) out of every 800 µs (the conversion rate).
6
These current values are derived by not issuing a stop condition at the end of a write or read, thus preventing the part from going into a conversion.
7
The current is derived assuming a 400 kHz serial clock being active continuously.
8
On power-up, the initial input current, IIN, on the AS pin is typically 50 µA.

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
The AD7414/AD7415 is a standalone digital temperature sensor.
The on-chip temperature sensor allows an accurate measurement
of the ambient device temperature to be made. The 10-bit A/D
converter converts the temperature measured into a twos complement format for storage in the temperature register. The A/D
converter is made up of a conventional successive-approximation
converter based around a capacitor DAC. The serial interface is
2
C and SMBus compatible. The AD7414/AD7415 requires a
I
2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply. The temperature sensor has a
working measurement range of –40°C to +125°C.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Temperature measurement is initiated by a couple of methods.
The first uses an internal clock countdown of 800 ms, and a
conversion is performed. The internal oscillator is the only circuit
that is powered up between conversions, and once it times out,
every 800 ms, a wake-up signal is sent to power up the rest of
the circuitry. A monostable is activated at the beginning of the
wake-up signal to ensure that sufficient time is given to the powerup process. The monostable typically takes 4 µs to time out. It
then takes typically 25 µs for each conversion to be completed.
The new temperature value is loaded into the temperature value
register and ready for reading by the I
2
C interface.
A temperature measurement is also initiated every time the
one-shot method is used. This method requires the user to
write to the one-shot bit in the configuration register when a
temperature measurement is needed. Setting the one-shot bit
to a 1 will start a temperature conversion directly after the
write operation. The track-and-hold goes into hold approximately 4 µs (monostable timeout) after the STOP condition
and a conversion is then initiated. Typically 25 µs later, the
conversion is complete and the temperature value register is
loaded with a new temperature value.
The measurement modes are compared with a high temperature
limit, stored in an 8-bit read/write register. This is applicable only
to the AD7414 since the AD7415 does not have an ALERT pin
and subsequently does not have an overtemperature monitoring
function. If the measurement is greater than the high limit, the
ALERT pin is activated (if it has already been enabled in the
configuration register). There are two ways to deactivate the
ALERT pin again: when the alert reset bit in the configuration
register is set to a 1 by a write operation, and when the temperature measured is less than the value in the T
register. This
LOW
ALERT pin is compatible with the SMBus SMBALERT
option.
Configuration functions consist of
• Switching between normal operation and full power-down
• Enabling or disabling the SCL and SDA filters
• Enabling or disabling the ALERT function
• Setting ALERT pin polarity

MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUE
A common method of measuring temperature is to exploit the
negative temperature coefficient of a diode, or the base-emitter
voltage of a transistor, operated at constant current. Unfortunately, this technique requires calibration to null the effect of
the absolute value of V
, which varies from device to device.
BE
The technique used in the AD7414/AD7415 is to measure the
change in V
when the device is operated at two different currents.
BE
This is given by
∆VKTqnN
=×
BE

()
where:
K is Boltzmann’s constant.
q is the charge on the electron (1.6 × 10
–19
Coulombs).
T is the absolute temperature in Kelvins.
N is the ratio of the two currents.
Figure 3. Temperature Measurement Technique
Figure 3 shows the method the AD7414/AD7415 uses to measure
the ambient device temperature. To measure ∆V
, the sensor
BE
(substrate transistor) is switched between operating currents of
I and N×I. The resulting waveform is passed through a chopperstabilized amplifier that performs the functions of amplification
and rectification of the waveform to produce a dc voltage proportional to ∆V
. This voltage is measured by the ADC to give a
BE
temperature output in 10-bit twos complement format.

TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
The temperature resolution of the ADC is 0.25°C, which
corresponds to 1 LSB of the ADC. The ADC can theoretically
measure a temperature span of 255°C; the practical lowest
value is limited to –40°C due to the device maximum ratings.
The A grade can measure a temperature range of –40°C to
+125°C. (Temperature data format is shown in Table II.)
The AD7414 has five internal registers as shown in Figure 4.
Four are data registers and one is an address pointer register.

Each data register has an address pointed to by the address

ADDRESS POINTER REGISTER
The address pointer register is an 8-bit register that stores an
address that points to one of the four data registers of the
AD7414 and one of the two data registers of the AD7415. The
first byte of every serial write operation to the AD7414/AD7415
is the address of one of the data registers, which is stored in the
address pointer register, and selects the data register to which
subsequent data bytes are written. Only the 2 LSBs of this register are used to select a data register.

CONFIGURATION REGISTER (ADDRESS 01H)
The configuration register is an 8-bit read/write register that is
used to set the operating modes of the AD7414/AD7415. In the
AD7414, six of the MSBs are used (D7 to D2) to set the operating
modes (see Table VII). D0 and D1 are used for factory settings
and must have zeros written to them during normal operation.

D5Disable ALERT if = 1.
D4ALERT is active low if D4 = 0,

D3Reset the ALERT pin if set to 1. The next temperature
conversion will have the ability to activate the ALERT
function. The bit status is not stored; thus this bit will
be 0 if read.

In the AD7415, only three of the bits are used (D7, D6, and

If the AD7414/AD7415 is in power-down mode (D7 = 1), a
temperature conversion can still be initiated by the one-shot
operation. This involves a write operation to the configuration
register and setting the one-shot bit to a 1 (D2 = 1), which will
cause the AD7414/AD7415 to power up, perform a single
conversion, and power down again. This is a very power
efficient mode.

TEMPERATURE VALUE REGISTER (ADDRESS 00H)
The temperature value register is a 10-bit read-only register
that stores the temperature reading from the ADC in twos
complement format. Two reads are necessary to read data
from this register. Table X shows the contents of the first byte
to be read, while Table XI and Table XII show the contents of
the second byte to be read from AD7414 and AD7415, respectively. In Table XI, D3 to D5 of the second byte are used as
flag bits and are obtained from other internal registers. They
function as follows:
ALERT_Flag:The state of this bit is the same as that of the
ALERT pin.
T
_Flag:This flag is set to a 1 when the temperature
HIGH
measured goes above the T
HIGH
limit. It is
reset when the second temperature byte
(Table XI) is read. If the temperature is still
greater than the T
limit after the read
HIGH
operation, the flag will be set again.
T
_Flag:This flag is set to a 1 when the temperature
LOW
measured goes below the T
limit. It is
LOW
reset when the second temperature byte
(Table XI) is read. If the temperature is still
less than the T
limit after the read operation,
LOW
the flag will be set again.
The full theoretical span of the ADC is 255°C, but in practice
the temperature measurement range is limited to the operating
range of the device, –40°C to +125°C for A grade.

HIGH
register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the
upper limit that will activate the ALERT output. Therefore, if
the value in the temperature value register is greater than the
value in the T
register, the ALERT pin is activated (that is,
HIGH
if ALERT is enabled in the configuration register). Since it is an
8-bit register, the temperature resolution is 1°C.

AD7414/AD7415 SERIAL INTERFACE
Control of the AD7414/AD7415 is carried out via the I2Ccompatible serial bus. The AD7414/AD7415 is connected to
this bus as a slave device, under the control of a master device,
e.g., the processor.
SERIAL BUS ADDRESS
Like all I2C-compatible devices, the AD7414/AD7415 has a 7-bit
serial address. The four MSBs of this address for the AD7414/
AD7415 are set to 1001. The AD7414/AD7415 comes in four
versions: AD7414/AD7415-0, AD7414/AD7415-1, AD7414-2,
and AD7414-3. The first two versions have three different I
2
C
addresses available, which are selected by either tying the AS
pin to GND, to V
, or letting the pin float (see Table I). By
DD
giving different addresses for the four versions, up to eight
AD7414s or six AD7415s can be connected to a single serial
bus, or the addresses can be set to avoid conflicts with other
devices on the bus.
The serial bus protocol operates as follows:
1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a START
condition, defined as a high to low transition on the serial
data line SDA, while the serial clock line SCL remains high.
This indicates that an address/data stream will follow. All
slave peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to the
START condition and shift in the next eight bits, consisting
of a 7-bit address (MSB first) plus an R/W bit, which determines the direction of the data transfer, i.e., whether data
will be written to or read from the slave device.
The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the data line low during the low
period before the ninth clock pulse, known as the acknowledge bit. All other devices on the bus now remain idle while
the selected device waits for data to be read from or written
to it. If the R/W bit is a 0, the master will write to the slave
device. If the R/W bit is a 1, the master will read from the
slave device.
2. Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock
pulses, eight bits of data followed by an acknowledge bit
from the receiver of data. Transitions on the data line must
occur during the low period of the clock signal and remain
stable during the high period, since a low to high transition
when the clock is high may be interpreted as a STOP signal.
3. When all data bytes have been read or written, stop conditions
are established. In WRITE mode, the master will pull the
data line high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a STOP
condition. In READ mode, the master device will pull the
data line high during the low period before the ninth clock
pulse. This is known as No Acknowledge. The master will
then take the data line low during the low period before the
10th clock pulse, then high during the 10th clock pulse to
assert a STOP condition.
Any number of bytes of data may be transferred over the serial
bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix read and write
in one operation because the type of operation is determined at
the beginning and cannot be changed subsequently without
starting a new operation.
WRITING TO THE AD7414/AD7415
Depending on the register being written to, there are two different
writes for the AD7414/AD7415.
Writing to the Address Pointer Register for a Subsequent Read
In order to read data from a particular register, the address
pointer register must contain the address of that register. If it
does not, the correct address must be written to the address
pointer register by performing a single-byte write operation, as
shown in Figure 6. The write operation consists of the serial bus
address followed by the address pointer byte. No data is written
to any of the data registers. A read operation is then performed
to read the register.
Writing a Single Byte of Data to the Configuration Register,
T
Register, or T
HIGH
Register
LOW
All three registers are 8-bit registers so only one byte of data can
be written to each register. Writing a single byte of data to one
of these registers consists of the serial bus address, the data
register address written to the address pointer register, followed
by the data byte written to the selected data register. This is
illustrated in Figure 7.
READING DATA FROM THE AD7414/AD7415
Reading data from the AD7414/AD7415 is a 1- or 2-byte operation. Reading back the contents of the configuration register,
T
HIGH
register, or T
register is a single-byte read operation,
LOW
as shown in Figure 8. The register address was previously set up
by a single-byte write operation to the address pointer register.
Once the register address has been set up, any number of reads
can subsequently be done from that register without having to
write to the address pointer register again. To read from another
register, the address pointer register will have to be written to
again to set up the relevant register address.
Reading data from the temperature value register is a 2-byte
operation, as shown in Figure 9. The same rules apply for a
2-byte read as a single-byte read.
SMBus ALERT
The AD7414 ALERT output is an SMBus interrupt line for
devices that want to trade their ability to master for an extra pin.
The AD7414 is a slave-only device and uses the SMBus ALERT
to signal to the host device that it wants to talk. The SMBus
ALERT on the AD7414 is used as an overtemperature indicator.
The ALERT pin has an open-drain configuration that allows the
ALERT outputs of several AD7414s to be wire-AND’ed together
when the ALERT pin is active low. Use D4 of the configuration
register to set the active polarity of the ALERT output. The
power-up default is active low. The ALERT function can be
disabled or enabled by setting D5 of the configuration register to
1 or 0, respectively.
REV. D
–9–
Page 10
AD7414/AD7415
The host device can process the ALERT interrupt and simultaneously access all SMBus ALERT devices through the alert
response address. Only the device that pulled the ALERT low
will acknowledge the ARA (Alert Response Address). If more
than one device pulls the ALERT pin low, the highest priority
(lowest address) device will win communication rights via stan-
2
C arbitration during the slave address transfer.
dard I
The ALERT output becomes active when the value in the
temperature value register exceeds the value in the T
HIGH
register. It is reset when a write operation to the configuration
register sets D3 to a 1 or when the temperature falls below the
value stored in the T
LOW
register.
The ALERT output requires an external pull-up resistor. This
can be connected to a voltage different from V
provided the
DD
maximum voltage rating of the ALERT output pin is not
exceeded. The value of the pull-up resistor depends on the
application, but should be as large as possible to avoid excessive
sink currents at the ALERT output, which can heat the chip
and affect the temperature reading.
POWER-ON DEFAULTS
The AD7414/AD7415 always powers up with the following
defaults:
Address pointer register pointing to the temperature value register.
T
register loaded with 7Fh.
HIGH
T
register loaded with 80h.
LOW
Configuration register loaded with 40h.
Note that the AD7415 does not have any T
OPERATING MODES
Mode 1
HIGH
or T
LOW
registers.
This is the power-on default mode of the AD7414/AD7415. In
this mode, the AD7414/AD7415 does a temperature conversion
every 800 ms and then partially powers down until the next
conversion occurs.
If a one-shot operation (setting D2 of the configuration register
to a 1) is performed between automatic conversions, a conversion
is initiated right after the write operation. After this conversion,
the part returns to performing a conversion every 800 ms.
Depending on where a serial port access occurs during a
conversion, that conversion might or might not be aborted. If
the conversion is completed before the part recognizes a serial
port access, the temperature register will be updated with the
new conversion. If the conversion is completed after the part
recognizes a serial port access, the internal logic will prevent the
temperature register from being updated since corrupt data
could be read.
A temperature conversion can start anytime during a serial port
access (other than a one-shot operation), but the result of that
conversion will only be loaded into the temperature register if
the serial port access is not active at the end of the conversion.
Mode 2
The only other mode in which the AD7414/AD7415 operates
is the full power-down mode. This mode is usually used when
temperature measurements are required at a very slow rate. The
power consumption of the part can be greatly reduced in this
mode by writing to the part to go to a full power-down. Full
power-down is initiated right after D7 of the configuration
register is set to 1.
When a temperature measurement is required, a write operation
can be performed to power up the part and put it into one-shot
mode (setting D2 of the configuration register to a 1). The
power-up takes approximately 4 ms. The part then performs a
conversion and is returned to full power-down. The temperature
value can be read in the full power-down mode since the serial
interface is still powered up.
POWER VS. THROUGHPUT
The two modes of operation for the AD7414/AD7415 will produce different power vs. throughput performances. Mode 2 is
the sleep mode of the part and it achieves the optimum power
performance.
Mode 1
In this mode, continuous conversions are performed at a rate of
approximately one every 800 ms. Figure 10 shows the times and
currents involved with this mode of operation for a 5 V supply.
At 5 V, the current consumption for the part when converting is
1.1 mA typically and the quiescent current is 188 µA typically.
The conversion time of 25 µs plus power-up time of typically
4 µs contributes 199.3 nW to the overall power dissipation in
the following way:

In this mode, the part is totally powered down. All circuitry
except the serial interface is switched off. The most power efficient
way of operating in this mode is to use the one-shot method. Write
to the configuration register and set the one-shot bit to a 1. The
part will power up in approximately 4 ms and then perform a
conversion. Once the conversion is finished, the device will
power down again until the PD bit in the configuration register
is set to a 0 or the one-shot bit is set to 1. Figure 11 shows the
same timing as Figure 10 in mode 1; a one-shot is initiated every
800 ms. If we take the voltage supply to be 5 V, we can work
out the power dissipation in the following way. The current
consumption for the part when converting is 1.1 mA typically
and the quiescent current is 800 nA typically. The conversion time
of 25 µs plus the power-up time of typically 4 ms contributes

MOUNTING THE AD7414/AD7415
The AD7414/AD7415 can be used for surface or air temperature
sensing applications. If the device is cemented to a surface with
thermally conductive adhesive, the die temperature will be within
about 0.1°C of the surface temperature, due to the device’s low
power consumption. Care should be taken to insulate the back
and leads of the device from the air if the ambient air temperature
is different from the surface temperature being measured.
The ground pin provides the best thermal path to the die, so the
temperature of the die will be close to that of the printed circuit
ground track. Care should be taken to ensure that this is in good
thermal contact with the surface being measured.
As with any IC, the AD7414/AD7415 and its associated wiring
and circuits must be kept free from moisture to prevent leakage
and corrosion, particularly in cold conditions where condensation is more likely to occur. Water-resistant varnishes and
conformal coatings can be used for protection. The small size
of the AD7414/AD7415 packages allows them to be mounted
inside sealed metal probes, which provide a safe environment
for the device.
SUPPLY DECOUPLING
The AD7414/AD7415 should at least be decoupled with a 0.1 µF
ceramic capacitor between V
and GND. This is particularly
DD
important if the AD7414/AD7415 is mounted remote from the
power supply.
