LM79 Microprocessor System Hardware Monitor
General Description
The LM79 is a highly integrated Data Acquisition system for hardware monitoring of servers, Personal Computers, or virtually any microprocessor based system. In a PC, the LM79 can be used to monitor power supply voltages, tem­peratures, and fan speeds. Actual values for these inputs can be read at any time, and programmable WATCHDOG limits in the LM79 activate a fully programmable and maskable interrupt system with two outputs.
The LM79 has an on-chip temperature sensor, 5 positive analog inputs, two inverting inputs (for monitoring negative voltages), and an 8-bit ADC. An input is provided for the overtemperature outputs of additional temperature sensors and this is linked to the interrupt system. The LM79 provides inputs for three fan tachometer outputs. Additional inputs are provided for Chassis Intrusion detection circuits, 5 VID moni­tor inputs, and chainable interrupt. The LM79 provides both ISA and Serial Bus interfaces. A 32-byte auto-increment RAM is provided for POST (Power On Self Test) code stor­age.
Compared to the LM78, the LM79 has the following differ­ences:
•
an additional VID input pin
•
an additional register for device identification
•
open drain Power Switch Bypass Output

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.
Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to GND, unless otherwise specified Note 3: When the input voltage (V
IN
) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (V
IN
<
(GNDD or GNDA) or V
IN
>
VCC), the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA.
The 20 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 5 mA to four. Note 4: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by T
J
max, θJAand the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum
allowable power dissipation at any temperature is P
D
=(TJmax−TA)/θJA.
Note 5: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin. The machine model is a 200 pF capacitor discharged directly into each pin.
Note 6: See the section titled “Surface Mount” found in any post 1986 National Semiconductor Linear Data Book for other methods of soldering surface mount devices.
Note 7: Each input and output is protected by a nominal 6.5V breakdown voltage zener diode to GND; as shown below, input voltage magnitude up to 0.3V above V
CC
or 0.3V below GND will not damage the LM79. There are parasitic diodes that exist between the inputs and the power supply rails. Errors in the ADC conversion
can occur if these diodes are forward biased by more than 50 mV. As an example, if V
CC
is 4.50 VDC, input voltage must be ≤ 4.55 VDC, to ensure accurate
conversions.

Functional Description
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LM79 provides 7 analog inputs, a temperature sensor, a Delta-Sigma ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter), 3 fan speed counters, WATCHDOGregisters, and a variety of inputs and outputs on a single chip. Interfaces are provided for both the ISA parallel bus or Serial Bus. The LM79 performs power supply, temperature, and fan monitoring for personal com­puters.
The LM79 continuously converts analog inputs to 8-bit digital words with a 16 mV LSB (Least Significant Bit) weighting, yielding input ranges of 0V to 4.096V. The two negative analog inputs provide inverting op amps, with their non-inverting input referred to ground. With additional exter­nal feedback components, these inputs provide measure­ments of negative voltages (such as -5V and -12V power supplies). The analog inputs are useful for monitoring sev­eral power supplies present in a typical computer. Tempera­ture is converted to an 8-bit two’s-complement digital word with a 1˚C LSB.
Fan inputs measure the period of tachometer pulses from the fans, providing a higher count for lower fan speeds. The fan inputs are digital inputs with an acceptable range of 0V to 5V and a transition level of approximately 1.4V. Full scale fan counts are 255 (8-bit counter) and this represents a stopped or very slow fan. Nominal speeds, based on a count of 153, are programmable from 1100 to 8800 RPM on FAN1 and FAN2, with FAN3 fixed at 4400 RPM. Signal conditioning circuitry is included to accommodate slow rise and fall times.
Figure 6
. These include:
•
Configuration Register: Provides control and con­figuration.
•
Interrupt Status Registers: Two registers to provide status of each WATCHDOG limit or Interrupt event.
•
Interrupt Mask Registers: Allows masking of indi­vidual Interrupt sources, as well as separate masking for each of both hardware Interrupt outputs.
•
VID/Fan Divisor Registers: A register to read the status of the VID0-VID3 input lines. The high bits of this register contain the divisor bits for FAN1 and FAN2 in­puts.
•
Serial Bus Address Register: Contains the Serial Bus address. At power on it assumes the default value of 0101101 binary, and can be altered via the ISA or Serial Bus interface.
•
Chip Reset/VID4/Device ID Register: Allows resetting of all the registers to the default power-on reset value. The state of VID4 is reflected in this register. The identity of the divice being used can be determined by reading the state of the D7 of this register. An LM79 would be identified when D7 is set high.
•
POST RAM: FIFO RAM to store up to 32 bytes of 8-bit POST codes. Overflow of the POST RAM will set an Interrupt. The POST RAM, located at base address x0h and x4h, allows for easy decoding to address 80h and 84h, the normal addresses for outputting of POST codes. Interrupt will only be set when writing to port x0h or x4h. The POST RAM can be read via ports 85h and 86h.
•
Value RAM: The monitoring results: temperature, volt­ages, fan counts, and WATCHDOG limits are all con­tained in the Value RAM. The Value RAM consists of a total of 64 bytes. The first 11 bytes are all of the results, the next 19 bytes are the WATCHDOG limits, and are located at 20h-3Fh, including two unused bytes in the upper locations. The next 32 bytes, located at 60h-7Fh, mirror the first 32 bytes with identical contents. The only difference in the upper bytes are that they auto-increment the LM79 Internal Address Register when read from or written to via the ISA bus (auto-increment is not available for Serial Bus communications).
Additional digital inputs are provided for chaining of SMI (System Management Interrupt), outputs of multiple external LM75 temperature sensors via the BTI (Board Temperature Interrupt) input, and a Chassis Intrusion input. The Chassis

Functional Description (Continued)
Intrusion input is designed to accept an active high signal from an external circuit that latches when the case is re­moved from the computer.
2.0 INTERFACE
The LM79 only decodes the three lowest address bits on the ISA bus. Referring to the ISA bus timing diagrams in and , the Chip Select Input, CS, should be taken low by external address decoder circuitry to access the LM79. The LM79 decodes the following base addresses:
-Port x0h: Power On Self Test codes from ISA bus.
-Port x4h: Power On Self Test codes from ISA bus.
-Port x5h: The LM79s Internal Address Register
-Port x6h: Data Register
IORD is the standard ISA bus signal that indicates to the LM79 that it may drive data on to the ISA data bus.
IOWR is the standard ISA command to the LM79 that it may latch data from the ISA bus.
LM79.All other clock functions within LM79 such as the ADC and fan counters are done with a separate asynchronous internal clock.
A typical application designed to utilize the POST RAM would decode the LM79 to the address space starting at 80h, which is where POST codes are output to. Otherwise, the LM79 can be decoded into a different desired address space.
To communicate with an LM79 Register, first write the ad­dress of that Register to Port x5h. Read or write data from or to that register via Port x6h. A write will take IOWR low, while a read will take IORD low.

49h 1100 000X D7 identifies this device as the LM79. D0 reflects
the state of VID4. POST RAM 00h-1Fh Auto-increment when written to from Port x0h or
x4h. Auto-increment after a read or write to Port
x6h, with a separate pointer. Auto-incrementing
stops when address 1Fh is reached. Value RAM 20h-3Fh Value RAM 60h-7Fh Auto-increment after a read or write to Port x6h.
Auto-incrementing stops when address 7Fh is
reached.
A typical communication with the LM79 would consist of:
1. Write to Port x5h the LM79 Internal Address (from col­umn 2 above) of the desired register. Alternatively,when both ISA and Serial Bus interfaces are used, the first step in a communication may be to read Port x5h to ascertain the state of the Busy bit to avoid contention with an Serial Bus communication.
2. Read or write the corresponding registers data with reads/writes from Port x6h.
The LM79 Internal Address latches, and does not have to be written if it is already pointing at the desired register. The LM79 Internal Address Register is read/write (Bit 7 is read only).

2.2 Serial Bus Interface
When using the Serial Bus Interface a write will always consist of the LM79 Serial Bus Interface Address byte, fol­lowed by the Internal Address Register byte, then the data byte. There are two cases for a read:
1. If the Internal Address Register is known to be at the desired Address, simply read the LM79 with the Serial Bus Interface Address byte, followed by the data byte read from the LM79.
2. If the Internal Address Register value is unknown, write to the LM79 with the Serial Bus Interface Address byte, followed by the Internal Address Register byte. Then restart the Serial Communication with a Read consisting of the Serial Bus Interface Address byte, followed by the data byte read from the LM79.
In all other respects the LM79 functions identically for Serial Bus communications as it does for ISA communications.
Auto-Increment does not operate. When writing to or reading from a Register which Auto-Increments with ISA communi­cations, the Register must be manually incremented for Serial Bus communications.
The default power on Serial Bus address for the LM79 is: 0101101binary.This address can be changed by writing any desired value to the Serial Bus address register, which can be done either via the ISA or Serial Bus. During and Serial Bus communication on the BUSY bit (bit 7) in the address register at x5h will be high, and any ISA activity in that situation should be limited to reading port x5h only.

3.0 USING THE LM79
3.1 Power On
When power is first applied, the LM79 performs a “power on reset” on several of its registers. The power on condition of registers in shown in Table I. Registers whose power on values are not shown have power on conditions that are indeterminate (this includes the value RAM and WATCH­DOG limits). The ADC is inactive. In most applications, usu­ally the first action after power on would be to write WATCH­DOG limits into the Value RAM.
3.2 Resets
Configuration Register INITIALIZATION accomplishes the same function as power on reset on most registers. The POST RAM, ValueRAM conversion results, and Value RAM WATCHDOG limits are not Reset and will be indeterminate immediately after power on. If the Value RAM contains valid conversion results and/or Value RAM WATCHDOG limits have been previously set, they will not be affected by a Configuration Register INITIALIZATION. Power on reset, or Configuration Register INITIALIZATION, clear or initialize the following registers (the initialized values are shown on
Table 1
):
•
Configuration Register
•
Interrupt Status Register 1
•
Interrupt Status Register 2
•
SMI Mask Register 1
•
SMI Mask Register 2
•
NMI Mask Register 1
•
NMI Mask Register 2
•
VID/Fan Divisor Register
•
Serial Bus Address Register (Power on reset only, not reset by Configuration Register INITIALIZATION)
Configuration Register INITIALIZATION is accomplished by setting Bit 7 of the Configuration Register high. This bit automatically clears after being set.
The LM79 allows the user to perform an unconditional com­plete Power-on reset by writing a one to Bit 5 of the Chip Reset/VID4/Device ID Register. The LM79 allows an uncon­ditional complete Power-on reset to be initiated by taking the IOWR and IORD signal lines low simultaneously, for at least 50 ns, while CS is high. The delay between consecutive IORD and IOWR pulses should be greater than 50 ns to ensure that an Power-on reset does not occur unintention­ally.
In systems where the serial bus is only being used it may be advantageous to take both IOWR and IORD to the system reset pulse. In this way whenever the system is reset the LM79 will also be reset to its initial Power-on state.
3.3 Using the Configuration Register
The Configuration Register provides all control over the LM79. At power on, the ADC is stopped and INT__Clear is asserted, clearing the SMI and NMI/IRQ hardwire outputs. The Configuration Register starts and stops the LM79, en­ables and disables interrupt outputs and modes, and pro­vides the Reset function described in Section 3.2.
Bit 0 of the Configuration Register controls the monitoring loop of the LM79. Setting Bit 0 low stops the LM79 monitor­ing loop and puts the LM79 in shutdown mode, reducing power consumption. ISA and Serial Bus communication is
possible with any register in the LM79 although activity on these lines will increase shutdown current, up to as much as maximum rated supply current, while the activity takes place. Taking Bit 0 high starts the monitoring loop, described in more detail subsequently.
Bit 1 of the Configuration Register enables the SMI Interrupt hardwire output when this bit is taken high. Similarly, Bit 2 of the Configuration Register enables the NMI/IRQ Interrupt hardwire output when taken high. The NMI/IRQ mode is determined by Bit 5 in the Configuration Register. When Bit 5 is low the output is an active low IRQ output. Taking Bit 5 high inverts this output to provide an active high NMI output.
The Power Switch Bypass provides an active low at the open drain Power Switch Bypass output when set high. This is intended for use in software power control by activating an external power control MOSFET.
3.4 Starting Conversion
The monitoring function (Analog inputs, temperature, and fan speeds) in the LM79 is started by writing to the Configu­ration Register and setting INT__Clear (Bit 3), low, and Start (bit 0), high. The LM79 then performs a “round-robin” moni­toring of all analog inputs, temperature, and fan speed inputs approximately once a second. The sequence of items being monitored corresponds to locations in the ValueRAM and is:
1. Temperature
2. IN0
3. IN1
4. IN2
5. IN3
6. IN4
7. -IN5
8. -IN6
9. Fan 1
10. Fan 2
11. Fan 3
3.5 Reading Conversion Results
A typical sequence of events upon power on of the LM79 would consist of:
1. Set WATCHDOG Limits
2. Set Interrupt Masks
3. Start the LM79 monitoring process
4.0 ANALOG INPUTS
The 8-bit ADC has a 16 mV LSB, yielding a 0V to 4.08V (4.096–1LSB) input range. This is true for all analog inputs. In PC monitoring applications these inputs would most often be connected to power supplies. The 2.5V and 3.3V supplies can be directly connected to the inputs. The 5V and 12V inputs should be attenuated with external resistors to any desired value within the input range.

Functional Description (Continued)
A typical application, such as is shown in
Figure 8
, might select the input voltage divider to provide 3V at the analog inputs of the LM79. This is sufficiently high for good resolu­tion of the voltage, yet leaves headroom for upward excur­sions from the supply of about 25%. To simplify the process of resistor selection, set the value of R2 first. Select a value for R2 between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ. This is low enough to avoid errors due to input leakage currents yet high enough to both protect the inputs under overdrive conditions as well as minimize loading of the source. Then select R1 to provide a 3V input according to:
The negative inputs provide inverting op amps with non-inverting inputs connected to ground. The output of these op amps are designed to only drive the input of the LM78 and their associated feedback loops. Avoid heavy loading, long lines, and capacitive loading with these op amps. Additional loading may cause oscillations and thus erroneous readings. The optimum feedback resistor (resistor from Feedback to -IN pin) value is approximately 60 kΩ, based on the op amp nominal output current rating of 50 µA at an output voltage of 3V. Locate the feedback resistors as close as possible to the LM79. The recommended range for R
IN
is from 30 kΩ to 300 kΩ.
Select R
IN
according to:
5.0 LAYOUT AND GROUNDING
Analog inputs will provide best accuracy when referred to the AGND pin. A separate, low-impedance ground plane for analog ground, which provides a ground point for the voltage dividers and analog components, will provide best perfor­mance but is not mandatory. Analog components such as voltage dividers and feedback resistors should be located physically as close as possible to the LM79.
6.0 FAN INPUTS
Inputs are provided for signals from fans equipped with tachometer outputs. These are logic-level inputs with an approximate threshold of 1.4V. Signal conditioning in the LM79 accommodates the slow rise and fall times typical of fan tachometer outputs. The maximum input signal range is 0toV
CC
. In the event these inputs are supplied from fan
outputs which exceed 0 to V
CC
, either resistive division or diode clamping must be included to keep inputs within an acceptable range, as shown in
Figure 9
. R2 is selected so that it does not develop excessive voltage due to input leakage. R1 is selected based on R2 to provide a minimum input of 2V and a maximum of V
CC
. R1 should be as low as
possible to provide the maximum possible input up to V
CC
for best noise immunity. Alternatively, use a shunt reference or zener diode to clamp the input level.
If fans can be powered while the power to the LM79 is off, the LM79 inputs will provide diode clamping. Limit input current to the Input Current at Any Pin specification shown in the ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS section. In most cases, open collector outputs with pull-up resistors inher­ently limit this current. If this maximum current could be exceeded, either a larger pull up resistor should be used or resistors connected in series with the fan inputs.
The Fan Inputs gate an internal 22.5 kHz oscillator for one period of the Fan signal into an 8-bit counter (maximum count = 255). The default divisor, located in the VID/Fan Divisor Register, is set to 2 (choices are 1, 2, 4, and 8) providing a nominal count of 153 for a 4400 rpm fan with two pulses per revolution. Typical practice is to consider 70% of normal RPM a fan failure, at which point the count will be
219. Determine the fan count according to:
Note that Fan 1 and Fan 2 Divisors are programmable via the VID/Fan Divisor Register. Fan 3 is not adjustable, and its Divisor is always set to 2.
Fans that provide only one pulse per revolution would re­quire a divisor set twice as high as fans that provide two pulses, thus maintaining a nominal fan count of 153. There­fore, the divisor should be set to 4 for a fan that provides 1 pulse per revolution with a nominal RPM of 4400.

7.0 TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM
The LM79 bandgap type temperature sensor and ADC per­form 8-bit two’s-complement conversions of the tempera­ture. A digital comparator is also incorporated that compares the readings to the user-programmable Overtemperature setpoint and Hysteresis values.
7.1 Temperature Data Format
Temperature data can be read from the Temperature, T
OI
Set
Point, and T
HYST
Set Point registers; and written to the T
OI
Set Point, and T
HYST
Set Point registers. Temperature data is represented by an 8-bit, two’s complement word with an LSB (Least Significant Bit) equal to 1.0˚C:
Temperature Digital Output
Binary Hex
+125˚C 0111 1101 7Dh
+25˚C 0001 1001 19h

−1.0˚C 1111 1111 FFh
−25˚C 1110 0111 E7h
−55˚C 1100 1001 C9h
7.2 Temperature Interrupts
The normal mode for temperature interrupts in the LM79 is an “Interrupt” mode operating in the following way: Exceed­ing T
OI
causes an interrupt that will remain active indefinitely until reset by reading Interrupt Status Register 1. Once an interrupt event has occurred by crossing T
OI
, then reset, an interrupt will only occur again by the temperature going below T
HYST
. Again, it will remain active indefinitely until
being reset by reading Interrupt Status Register 1. A “Comparator” mode for temperature interrupts can be
made available by setting the T
HYST
limit to 127˚C. This results in a simple “thermostat” type of function where an interrupt will be set whenever the temperature exceeds the T
OI
limit. Reading Interrupt Status Register 1 will clear the interrupt as usual, but the interrupt will set again after the completion of another measurement cycle. It will remain set until the temperature goes below the T
OI
limit (allow up to two measurement cycles for clearing after descending below T
OI
while in Comparator mode).

8.0 THE LM79 INTERRUPT STRUCTURE
Figure 12
depicts the Interrupt Structure of the LM79. The LM79 can generate Interrupts as a result of each of its internal WATCHDOG registers on the analog, temperature, and fan inputs. Overflow of the POST RAM (greater than 32 bytes written to POST RAM) will also cause an Interrupt.
External Interrupts can come from the following three sources. While the labels suggest a specific type or source of Interrupt, these labels are not restrictions of their usage, and they could come from any desired source:
•
BTI: This is an active low Interrupt intended to come from the O.S. output of LM75 temperature sensors. The LM75 O.S. output goes active when its temperature ex-
ceeds a programmed threshold. Up to 8 LM75’s can be connected to a single Serial Bus bus with their O.S. output’s wire or’d to the BTI input of the LM79. If the temperature of any LM75 exceeds its programmed limit, it drives BTI low. This generates an Interrupt to notify the host of a possible overtemperature condition. Provides an internal pull-up of 10 kΩ.
DS100036-21
FIGURE 12. Interrupt Structure
LM79

Page 22
Functional Description (Continued)
•
Chassis Intrusion: This is an active high interrupt from any type of device that detects and captures chassis intrusion violations. This could be accomplished me­chanically, optically, or electrically, and circuitry external to the LM79 is expected to latch the event. The design of the LM79 allows this input to go high even with no power applied to the LM79, and no clamping or other interfer­ence with the line will occur. This line can also be pulled low for at least 20 ms by the LM79 to reset a typical Chassis Intrusion circuit. Accomplish this reset by setting Bit 7 of NMI Mask Register 2 high. The bit in the Register is self-clearing.
•
SMI__IN: This active low Interrupt merely provides a way to chain the SMI Interrupt from other devices through the LM79 to the processor.
All Interrupts are indicated in the two Interrupt Status Reg­isters. The NMI/IRQ and SMI outputs have individual mask registers, and individual masks for each Interrupt. As de­scribed in Section 3.3, these two hardware Interrupt lines can also be enabled/disabled in the Configuration Register. The Configuration Register is also used to set the mode of the NMI/IRQ Interrupt line.
8.1 Interrupt Clearing
Reading the Interrupt Status Register will output the con­tents of the Register, and reset the Register. A subsequent read done before the analog “round-robin” monitoring loop is complete will indicate a cleared Register. Allow at least 1.5 seconds to allow all Registers to be updated between reads. In summary, the Interrupt Status Register clears upon being read, and requires at least 1.5 seconds to be updated. When the Interrupt Status Register clears, the hardware interrupt line will also clear until the Registers are updated by the monitoring loop.
The hardware Interrupt lines are cleared with the INT__Clear bit, which is Bit 3 of the Configuration Register. When this bit is high, the LM79 monitoring loop will stop. It will resume when the bit is low.
9.0 RESET AND Power Switch Bypass OUTPUTS
In PC applications the open drain Power Switch Bypass provides a gate drive signal to an external P-channel MOS­FET power switch. This external MOSFET then would keep power turned on regardless of the state of front panel power switches when software power control is used. In any given application this signal is not limited to the function described by its label. For example, since the LM79 incorporates tem­perature sensing, the Power Switch Bypass output could also be utilized to control power to a cooling fan. Take Power Switch Bypass active low by setting Bit 6 in the Configuration Register high.
RESET is intended to provide a master reset to devices connected to this line. SMI Mask Register 2, Bit 7, must be set high to enable this function. Setting Bit 4 in the Configu­ration Register high outputs a least 20 ms low on this line, at the end of which Bit 4 in the Configuration Register automati­cally clears. Again, the label for this pin is only its suggested use. In applications where the RESET capability is not needed it can be used for any type of digital control that requires a 20 ms active low open drain output.
10.0 POST RAM
The POST RAM is located at address x0h and x4h, which typical address decoders will decode to 80h or 84h, where the BIOS will output Power On Self Test codes. Awrite to the POST RAM auto-increments the internal pointer of the LM79. Up to 32 bytes may be stored. An excess of 32 bytes will generate an Interrupt and stop incrementing.
The POST RAM is read as like any other register at Ports x5h and x6h, with the POST RAM located at the LM79 Internal Address from 00h to 1Fh. Reading the POST RAM via x6h will also auto-increment, but this is a separate pointer than the one used for ports 80h and 84h.
11.0 NAND TREE TESTS
A NAND tree is provided in the LM79 for Automated Test Equipment (ATE)board level connectivity testing. NAND tree tests are accomplished after power on reset when the Con­figuration Register is in reset state, with the Start Bit, Bit 0 of the Configuration Register low, and the INT__Clear (Bit 3) high. In this mode, forcing the SMI output low before the first write to the configuration register takes all pins except Power Switch Bypass, RESET, -IN5, -IN6, VCC, GNDA, and GNDD to a high impedance (either TRI-STATE or open drain) state. All high impedance pins can then be taken to 0 and V
CC
to
accomplish NAND tree tests. To perform a NAND tree test all pins included in the NAND
tree should be driven to 1. Each individual pin (excluding the aforementioned exceptions) can be toggled and the resulting toggle observed on the NTEST pin. Allow for a typical propa­gation delay of 200 ns.

13.13 POST RAM—Address 00h–1Fh
The address pointer for the POST RAM auto-increments when written to at Port x0h or x4h. Once the address pointer reaches 1Fh, a FIFO overflow interrupt will be generated and the FIFO will stop incrementing. Normal reads via Port x5h and x6h auto-increment a separate pointer, and will not cause a FIFO overflow interrupt.
