MIC284

Two-Zone Thermal Supervisor

Advance Information

General Description

The MIC284 is a versatile digital thermal supervisor capable
of measuring temperature using its own internal sensor and
an inexpensive external sensor or embedded silicon diode
such as those found in the Intel Pentium III* CPU. A 2-wire
serial interface is provided to allow communication with either
I2C** or SMBus* masters. Features include an open-drain
over-temperature output with dedicated registers for imple­menting fan control or over-temperature shutdown circuits.

Interrupt status and mask bits are provided for reduced
software overhead. The open-drain interrupt output pin can
be used as either an overtemperature alarm or a thermostatic
control signal. A programmable address pin permits two
devices to share the bus. (Alternate base addresses avail­able-contact Micrel.) Superior performance, low power and
small size makes the MIC284 an excellent choice for the most
demanding thermal management applications.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Pin Descriptions

VDD: Power supply input. See electrical specifications.

GND: Ground return for all MIC284 functions.

CLK: Clock input to the MIC284 from the two-wire serial bus.

The clock signal is provided by the host, and is shared by all
devices on the bus.

DATA: Serial data I/O pin that connects to the two-wire serial
bus. DATA is bi-directional and has an open-drain output
driver. An external pull-up resistor or current source some­where in the system is necessary on this line. This line is
shared by all devices on the bus.

A0: This inputs sets the least significant bit of the MIC284’s
7-bit slave address. The six most-significant bits are fixed
and are determined by the part number ordered. (See order­ing information table above.) Each MIC284 will only respond
to its own unique slave address, allowing up to eight MIC284s
to share a single bus. A match between the MIC284’s
address and the address specified in the serial bit stream
must be made to initiate communication. A0 should be tied
directly to VDD or ground. See "Temperature Measurement

the MODE and IM bits in the MIC284’s configuration register.
See "Comparator and Interrupt Modes" below. This output is
open-drain and may be wire-OR’ed with other open-drain
signals. Most systems will require a pull-up resistor or current
source on this pin. If the IM bit in the configuration register is

set, it prevents the /INT output from sinking current. In I2C
and SMBus systems, the IM bit is therefore an interrupt mask
bit.

/CRIT: Over-temperature events are indicated to external
circuitry via this output. This output is open-drain and may be
wire-OR’ed with other open-drain signals. Most systems will
require a pull-up resistor or current source on this pin.

T1: This pin connects to an off-chip PN diode junction, for
monitoring the junction temperature at a remote location. The
remote diode may be an embedded thermal sensing junction
in an integrated circuit so equipped (such as Intel's Pentium
III), or a discrete 2N3906-type bipolar transistor with base and
collector tied together.

Temperature Measurement

The temperature-to-digital converter is built around a switched
current source and an eight-bit analog-to-digital converter.
Each diode's temperature is calculated by measuring its
forward voltage drop at two different current levels. An
internal multiplexer directs the MIC284's current source out­put to either an internal or external diode junction. The
MIC284 uses two’s-complement data to represent tempera­tures. If the MSB of a temperature value is zero, the
temperature is zero or positive. If the MSB is one, the
temperature is negative. More detail on this is given in the
"Temperature Data Format" section below. A “temperature
event” results if the value in either of the temperature result
registers (TEMPx) becomes greater than the value in the
corresponding temperature setpoint register (T_SETx). An­other temperature event occurs if and when the measured
temperature subsequently falls below the temperature hys­teresis setting in T_HYSTx.

During normal operation the MIC284 continuously performs
temperature-to-digital conversions, compares the results
against the setpoint registers, and updates the states of /INT,
/CRIT, and the status bits accordingly. The remote zone is
converted first, followed by the local zone. The states of /INT,
/CRIT, and the status bits are updated after each measure­ment is taken. The remote diode junction connected to T1
may be embedded in an integrated circuit such as a CPU,
ASIC, or graphics processor, or it may be a diode-connected
discrete transistor.

Diode Faults

The MIC284 is designed to respond in a failsafe manner to
hardware faults in the external sensing circuitry. If the
connection to the external diode is lost or the sense line (T1)
is shorted to VDD or ground, the temperature data reported
by the A/D converter will be forced to its full-scale value
(+127°C). This will cause a temperature event to occur if
T_SET1 or CRIT1 are set to any value less than 127°C (7F
= 0111 1111b). An interrupt will be generated on /INT if so
enabled. The temperature reported for the external zone will
remain +127°C until the fault condition is cleared. This fault
detection mechanism requires that the MIC284 complete the
number of conversion cycles specified by Fault_Queue. The
part will therefore require one or more conversion cycles
following power-on or a transition from shutdown to normal
operation before reporting an external diode fault.

Serial Port Operation

The MIC284 uses standard SMBus Write_Byte and
Read_Byte operations for communication with its host. The
SMBus Write_Byte operation involves sending the device’s
slave address (with the R/W bit low to signal a write opera­tion), followed by a command byte and a data byte. The
SMBus Read_Byte operation is similar, but is a composite
write and read operation: the host first sends the device’s
slave address followed by the command byte, as in a write
operation. A new start bit must then be sent to the MIC284,
followed by a repeat of the slave address with the R/W bit
(LSB) set to the high (read) state. The data to be read from
the part may then be clocked out.

The command byte is eight bits wide. This byte carries the
address of the MIC284 register to be operated upon, and is
stored in the part’s pointer register. The pointer register is an
internal write-only register. The command byte (pointer
register) values corresponding to the various MIC284 regis­ter addresses are shown in Table 2. Command byte values
other than those explicitly shown are reserved, and should
not be used. Any command byte sent to the MIC284 will
persist in the pointer register indefinitely until it is overwritten
by another command byte. If the location latched in the
pointer register from the last operation is known to be correct
(i.e., points to the desired register), then the Receive_Byte
procedure may be used. To perform a Receive_Byte, the host
sends an address byte to select the MIC284, and then
retrieves the data byte. Figures 1 through 3 show the formats
for these procedures.

Temperature Data Format

The LSB of each register represents one degree Centigrade.
The values are in a two’s complement format, wherein the
most significant bit (D7), represents the sign: zero for positive
temperatures and one for negative temperatures. Table 3
shows examples of the data format used by the MIC284 for
temperatures.

A/D Converter Timing

Whenever the MIC284 is not in its low power shutdown mode,
the internal A/D converter (ADC) attempts to make continu­ous conversions unless interrupted by a bus transaction
accessing the MIC284. When the part is accessed, the
conversion in progress will be halted, and the partial result
discarded. When the access to the MIC284 is complete, the
ADC will begin a new conversion cycle with results for the
remote zone valid t
t

later. Figure 4 shows this behavior. The conversion

CONV0

after that, and for the local zone

CONV1

time is twice as long for external conversions as it is for
internal conversions. This allows the use of a filter capacitor
on T1 without a loss of accuracy due to the resulting longer
settling times.

Upon powering-up, coming out of shutdown mode, or resum­ing operation following a serial bus transaction, the ADC will
begin acquiring temperature data starting with the external
zone (zone 1), followed by the internal zone (zone 0). If the
ADC is interrupted by a serial bus transaction, it will restart the
conversion that was interrupted and then continue in the
normal sequence. This sequence will repeat indefinitely until
the MIC284 is shut down, powered off, or is interrupted by a
serial bus transaction as described above.

Power-On

When power is initially applied, the MIC284’s internal regis­ters are set to their default states, and A0 is read to establish
the device’s slave address. The MIC284’s power-up default
state can be summarized as follows:

• Normal Mode operation (i.e., part is not in shut­down)

• /INT function is set to Comparator Mode

• Fault Queue depth = 1 (FQ=00)

• Interrupts are enabled (IM = 0)

• T_SET0 = 81°C; T_HYST0 = 76°C

• T_SET1 = 97°C; T_HYST1 = 92°C

• CRIT1 = 97°C; nCRIT1 = 92°C

• Initialized to recognize overtemperature faults

Comparator and Interrupt Modes

Depending on the setting of the MODE bit in the configuration
register, the /INT output will behave either as an interrupt
request signal or a thermostatic control signal. Thermostatic
operation is known as

comparator mode

. The /INT output is
asserted when the measured temperature, as reported in
either of the TEMPx registers, exceeds the threshold pro­grammed into the corresponding T_SETx register for the
number of conversions specified by Fault_Queue (described
below). In comparator mode, /INT will remain asserted and
the status bits will remain high unless and until the measured
temperature falls below the value in the T_HYSTx register for
Fault_Queue conversions. No action on the part of the host
is required for operation in comparator mode. Note that
entering shutdown mode will not affect the state of /INT when
the device is in comparator mode.

In

interrupt mode

, once a temperature event has caused a
status bit (Sx) to be set, and the /INT output to be asserted,
they will not be automatically de-asserted when the mea­sured temperature falls below T_HYSTx. They can only be
de-asserted by reading any of the MIC284’s internal registers
or by putting the device into shutdown mode. If the most
recent temperature event was an overtemperature condition,
Sx will not be set again, and /INT cannot be reasserted, until
the device has detected that TEMPx < T_HYSTx. Similarly,
if the most recent temperature event was an undertemperature
condition, Sx will not be set again, and /INT cannot be
reasserted, until the device has detected that TEMPx >
T_SETx. This keeps the internal logic of the MIC284 back­ward compatible with that of the LM75 and similar devices. In
both modes, the MIC284 will be responsive to over-tempera­ture events at power-up. See "Interrupt Generation", below.

Shutdown Mode

Setting the SHDN bit in the configuration register halts the
otherwise continuous conversions by the A/D converter. The
MIC284’s power consumption drops to 1µA typical in shut­down mode. All registers may be read from or written to while
in shutdown mode. Serial bus activity will slightly increase the
part’s power consumption.

Entering shutdown mode will not affect the state of /INT when
the device is in comparator mode (MODE = 0). It will retain
its state until after the device exits shutdown mode and
resumes A/D conversions.

If the device is shut down while in interrupt mode (mode = 1),
the /INT pin will be unconditionally de-asserted and the
internal latches holding the interrupt status will be cleared.
Therefore, no interrupts will be generated while the MIC284
is in shutdown mode, and the interrupt status will not be
retained. Regardless of the setting of the MODE bit, the state
of /CRIT and its corresponding status bit, CRIT1, does not
change when the MIC284 enters shutdown mode. They will
retain their states until after the device exits shutdown mode
and resumes A/D conversions. Since entering shutdown
mode stops A/D conversions, the MIC284 is incapable of
detecting or reporting temperature events of any kind while in
shutdown. Diode fault detection requires one or more A/D
conversion cycles to detect external sensor faults, therefore
diode faults will not be reported until the MIC284 exits
shutdown (see "Diode Faults" above).

Fault Queues

Fault queues (programmable digital filters) are provided in
the MIC284 to prevent false tripping due to thermal or
electrical noise. The two bits in CONFIG[4:3] set the depth of
Fault_Queue. Fault_Queue then determines the number of
consecutive temperature events (TEMPx > T_SETx, TEMPx
< T_HYSTx, TEMP1 > CRIT1, or TEMP1 < nCRIT1) which
must occur in order for the condition to be considered valid.
There are separate fault queues for each zone and for the
over-temperature detect function. As an example, assume
the part is in comparator mode, and CONFIG[4:3] is pro­grammed with 10

. The measured temperature in zone one

b

would have to exceed T_SET1 for four consecutive A/D
conversions before /INT would be asserted or the S1 status
bit set. Similarly, TEMP1 would have to be less than T_HYST1
for four consecutive conversions before /INT would be reset.
Like any filter, the fault queue function also has the effect of
delaying the detection of temperature events. In this ex­ample, it would take 4 x t

to detect a temperature event.

CONV

The depth of Fault_Queue vs. D[4:3] of the configuration
register is shown in Table 4:

Table 4. Fault_Queue Depth Settings

Interrupt Generation

Assuming the MIC284 is in interrupt mode and interrupts are
enabled, there are five different conditions that will cause the
MIC284 to set one of the status bits (S0, S1, or CRIT1) in
CONFIG and assert the /INT output and/or the /CRIT output.
These conditions are listed in Table 5. When a temperature
event occurs, the corresponding status bit will be set in
CONFIG. This action cannot be masked. However, a
temperature event will only generate an interrupt signal on /
INT if it is specifically enabled by the interrupt mask bit (IM =0
in the configuration register). Following an interrupt, the host

should read the contents of the configuration register to
confirm that the MIC284 was the source of the interrupt. A

any

read operation on

register will cause /INT to be de­asserted. This is shown in Figure 5. The status bits will be
cleared once CONFIG has been read.

Since temperature-to-digital conversions continue while /INT
is asserted, the measured temperature could change be­tween the MIC284’s assertion of /INT or /CRIT and the host’s
response. It is good practice for the interrupt service routine
to read the value in TEMPx, to verify that the over-tempera­ture or under-temperature condition still exists. In addition,
more than one temperature event may have occurred simul­taneously or in rapid succession between the assertion of
/INT and servicing of the MIC284 by the host. The interrupt
service routine should allow for this eventuality. Keep in mind
that clearing the status bits and deasserting /INT is

not

sufficient to allow further interrupts to occur. TEMPx must
become less than T_HYSTx if the last event was an over­temperature condition, or greater than T_SETx if the last
event was an under-temperature condition, before /INT can
be asserted again.

Putting the device into shutdown mode will de-assert /INT
and clear the S0 and S1 status bits. This should not be done
before completing the appropriate interrupt service routine(s).

/CRIT Output

If and when the measured remote temperature exceeds the
value programmed into the CRIT1 register, the /CRIT output
will be asserted and CRIT1 in the configuration register will be
set. If and when the measured temperature in zone one
subsequently falls below the value programmed into nCRIT1,
the /CRIT output will be de-asserted and the CRIT1 bit in
CONFIG will be cleared. This action cannot be masked and
is completely independent of the settings of the mode bit and
interrupt mask bit. The host may poll the state of the /CRIT
output at any time by reading the configuration register. The
state of the CRIT1 bit exactly follows the state of the /CRIT
output. The states of /CRIT and CRIT1 do not change when
the MIC284 enters shutdown mode. Entering shutdown mode
stops A/D conversions, however, so their states will not
change while the device is shut down.

Polling

The MIC284 may either be polled by the host, or request the
host’s attention via the /INT pin. In the case of polled
operation, the host periodically reads the contents of CONFIG
to check the state of the status bits. The act of reading
CONFIG clears the status bits. If more than one event that
sets a given status bit occurs before the host polls the
MIC284, only the fact that at least one such event has
occurred will be apparent to the host. For polled systems, the
interrupt mask bit should be set (IM = 1). This will disable
interrupts from the MIC284, and prevent the /INT pin from
sinking current. The host may poll the state of the /CRIT
output at any time by reading the configuration register. The
state of the CRIT1 bit exactly follows the state of the /CRIT
output.

Applications

Remote Diode Selection

Most small-signal PNP transistors with characteristics similar
to the JEDEC 2N3906 will perform well as remote tempera­ture sensors. Table 6 lists several examples of such parts
that Micrel has tested for use with the MIC284. Other
transistors equivalent to these should also work well.

Minimizing Errors

Self-Heating

One concern when using a part with the temperature accu­racy and resolution of the MIC284 is to avoid errors induced
by self-heating (VDD × IDD) + (VOL × IOL). In order to
understand what level of error this might represent, and how
to reduce that error, the dissipation in the MIC284 must be
calculated and its effects reduced to a temperature offset.

The worst-case operating condition for the MIC284 is when
VDD = 5.5V, MSOP-08 package. T he maximum power
dissipated in the part is given in Equation 1 below.

In most applications, the /INT output will be low for at most a
few milliseconds before the host resets it back to the high
state, making its duty cycle low enough that its contribution to
self-heating of the MIC284 is negligible. Similarly, the DATA
pin will in all likelihood have a duty cycle of substantially below
25% in the low state. These considerations, combined with
more typical device and application parameters, give a better
system-level view of device self-heating in interrupt-mode
usage. This is illustrated by Equation 2.

If the part is to be used in comparator mode, calculations
similar to those shown in Equation 2 (accounting for the
expected value and duty cycle of I

OL(/INT)

will give a good estimate of the device’s self-heating error.

In any application, the best test is to verify performance
against calculation in the final application environment. This
is especially true when dealing with systems for which some

and I

OL(/CRIT)

)

of the thermal data (e.g., PC board thermal conductivity and
ambient temperature) may be poorly defined or unobtainable
except by empirical means.

Series Resistance

The operation of the MIC284 depends upon sensing the
∆V

of a diode-connected PNP transistor (“diode”) at two

CB-E

different current levels. For remote temperature measure­ments, this is done using an external diode connected be­tween T1 and ground.

Since this technique relies upon measuring the relatively
small voltage difference resulting from two levels of current
through the external diode, any resistance in series with the
external diode will cause an error in the temperature reading
from the MIC284. A good rule of thumb is this: for each ohm
in series with the external transistor, there will be a 0.9°C error
in the MIC284’s temperature measurement. It isn’t difficult to
keep the series resistance well below an ohm (typically <

0.1Ω), so this will rarely be an issue.

Filter Capacitor Selection

It is sometimes desirable to use a filter capacitor between the
T1 and GND pins of the MIC284. The use of this capacitor is
recommended in environments with a lot of high frequency
noise (such as digital switching noise), or if long wires are
used to attach to the remote diode. The maximum recom­mended total capacitance from the T1 pin to GND is 2700pF.
This typically suggests the use of a 2200pF NP0 or C0G
ceramic capacitor with a 10% tolerance.

If the remote diode is to be at a distance of more than ≈ 6" —
12" from the MIC284, using twisted pair wiring or shielded
microphone cable for the connections to the diode can
significantly help reduce noise pickup. If using a long run of
shielded cable, remember to subtract the cable’s conductor­to-shield capacitance from the 2700pF maximum total ca­pacitance.

Layout Considerations

The following guidelines should be kept in mind when design­ing and laying out circuits using the MIC284:

1. Place the MIC284 as close to the remote diode
as possible, while taking care to avoid severe
noise sources such as high frequency power
transformers, CRTs, memory and data busses,
and the like.

2. Since any conductance from the various volt­ages on the PC Board and the T1 line can
induce serious errors, it is good practice to
guard the remote diode’s emitter trace with a
pair of ground traces. These ground traces
should be returned to the MIC284’s own ground
pin. They should not be grounded at any other
part of their run. However, it is highly desirable
to use these guard traces to carry the diode’s
own ground return back to the ground pin of the
MIC284, thereby providing a Kelvin connection
for the base of the diode. See Figure 6.

3. When using the MIC284 to sense the tempera­ture of a processor or other device which has an
integral thermal diode, e.g., Intel’s Pentium III,
connect the emitter and base of the remote
sensor to the MIC284 using the guard traces
and Kelvin return shown in Figure 6. The
collector of the remote diode is typically inacces­sible to the user on these devices. To allow for
this, the MIC284 has superb rejection of noise
appearing from collector to GND, as long as the
base to ground connection is relatively quiet.

4. Due to the small currents involved in the mea-

surement of the remote diode’s ∆V

BE

, it is
important to adequately clean the PC board after
soldering to prevent current leakage. This is
most likely to show up as an issue in situations
where water-soluble soldering fluxes are used.

5. In general, wider traces for the ground and T1
lines will help reduce susceptibility to radiated
noise (wider traces are less inductive). Use
trace widths and spacing of 10 mils wherever
possible and provide a ground plane under the
MIC284 and under the connections from the
MIC284 to the remote diode. This will help
guard against stray noise pickup.

6. Always place a good quality power supply
bypass capacitor directly adjacent to, or under­neath, the MIC284. This should be a 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor. Surface-mount parts provide
the best bypassing because of their low induc­tance.

7. When the MIC284 is being powered from
particularly noisy power supplies, or from
supplies which may have sudden high-amplitude
spikes appearing on them, it can be helpful to
add additional power supply filtering. This
should be implemented as a 100Ω resistor in
series with the part’s VDD pin, and a 4.7µF,

6.3V electrolytic capacitor from VDD to GND.
