10-Bit plus Sign Digital Temperature
Sensor
General Description
The LM70 is a temperature sensor, Delta-Sigma
analog-to-digital converter with an SPI and MICROWIRE
compatible interface available in LLP and MSOP 8-pin packages. The host can query the LM70 at any time to read temperature. A shutdown mode decreases power consumption
to less than10µA. This mode is useful in systems where low
average power consumption is critical.
The LM70 has 10-bit plus sign temperature resolution
(0.25˚C per LSB) while operating over a temperature range
of −55˚C to +150˚C.
The LM70’s 2.65V to 5.5V supply voltage range, low supply
current and simple SPI interface make it ideal for a wide
range of applications. These include thermal management
and protection applications in hard disk drives, printers, electronic test equipment, and office electronics.

1.0 Functional Description
The LM70 temperature sensor incorporates a band-gap type
temperature sensor and 10-bit plus sign ∆Σ ADC
(Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converter). Compatibility of
the LM70’s three wire serial interface with SPI and MICROWIRE allows simple communications with common microcontrollers and processors. Shutdown mode can be used
to optimize current drain for different applications. A manufacture’s ID register identifies the LM70 as National Semiconductor product.
1.1 POWER UP AND POWER DOWN
The LM70 always powers up in a known state. The power up
default condition is continuous conversion mode. Immediatly
after power up the LM70 will output an erroneous code until
the first temperature conversion has completed.
When the supply voltage is less than about 1.6V (typical),
the LM70 is considered powered down. As the supply voltage rises above the nominal 1.6V power up threshold, the internal registers are reset to the power up default state described above.
1.2 SERIAL BUS INTERFACE
The LM70 operates as a slave and is compatible with SPI or
MICROWIRE bus specifications. Data is clocked out on the
falling edge of the serial clock (SC), while data is clocked in
on the rising edge of SC. A complete transmit/receive communication will consist of 32 serial clocks. The first 16 clocks
comprise the transmit phase of communication, while the
second 16 clocks are the receive phase.
When CS is high SI/O will be in TRISTATE
should be initiated by taking chip select (CS) low. This
should not be done when SC is changing from a low to high
state. Once CS is low the serial I/O pin (SI/O) will transmit
the first bit of data. The master can then read this bit with the
rising edge of SC. The remainder of the data will be clocked
out by the falling edge of SC. Once the 14 bits of data (one
sign bit, ten temperature bits and 3 high bits) are transmitted
the SI/O line will go into TRI-STATE. CS can be taken high at
any time during the transmit phase. If CS is brought low in
the middle of a conversion the LM70 will complete the conversion and the output shift register will be updated after CS
is brought back high.
The receive phase of a communication starts after 16 SC periods. CS can remain low for 32 SC cycles. The LM70 will
read the data available on the SI/O line on the rising edge of
the serial clock. Input data is to an 8-bit shift register. The
®

DS101223-21
part will detect the last eight bits shifted into the register.The
receive phase can last up to 16 SC periods.All ones must be
shifted in order to place the part into shutdown. A zero in any
location will take the LM70 out of shutdown. The following
codes only should be transmitted to the LM70:
00 hex (normal operation)
•
01 hex (normal operation)
•
03 hex (normal operation)
•
07 hex (normal operation)
•
0F hex (normal operation)
•
1F hex (normal operation)
•
3F hex(normal operation)
•
7F hex(normal operation)
•
FF hex (Shutdown, transmit manufacturer’s ID)
•
.
any others may place the part into a Test Mode. Test Modes
are used by National Semiconductor to thoroughly test the
function of the LM70 during production testing. Only eight
bits have been defined above since only the last eight transmitted, before CS is taken HIGH, are detected by the LM70
The following communication can be used to determine the
Manufacturer’s/Device ID and then immediately place the
part into continuous conversion mode. With CS continuously
low:
Read 16 bits of temperature data
•
Write 16 bits of data commanding shutdown
•
Read 16 bits of Manufacture’s/Device ID data
•
Write 8 to 16 bits of data commanding Conversion Mode
•
Take CS HIGH.
•
Note that 250 ms will have to pass for a conversion to complete before the LM70 actually transmits temperature data.

1.3 TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
Temperature data is represented by a 11-bit, two’s complement word with an LSB (Least Significant Bit) equal to
The LM70 has three registers, the temperature register, the configuration register and the manufacturer’s/device identification
register.The temperature and manufacturer’s/device identification registers are read only. The configuration register is write only.
1.5.1 CONFIGURATION REGISTER
(Selects shutdown or continuous conversion modes):
Note: The last two bits are TRI-STATE and depicted as one
in the table.
The first data byte is the most significant byte with most significant bit first, permitting only as much data as necessary to
be read to determine temperature condition. For instance, if
the first four bits of the temperature data indicate an overtemperature condition, the host processor could immediately
take action to remedy the excessive temperatures.
1.4 SHUTDOWN MODE/MANUFACTURER’S ID
Shutdown mode is enabled by writing XX FF to the LM70 as

draw drops to less than 10 µA between serial communications. When in shutdown mode the LM70 always will output
1000 0001 0000 00XX. This is the manufacturer’s ID/Device
ID information. The first 5-bits of the field (1000 0XXX) are
reserved for manufacturer’s ID.

3.0 Application Hints
To get the expected results when measuring temperature
with an integrated circuit temperature sensor like the LM70,
it is important to understand that the sensor measures its
own die temperature. For the LM70, the best thermal path
between the die and the outside world is through the LM70’s
pins. In the MSOP-8 package the ground pin is connected to
the back side of the LM70 die and thus has the most effect
on the die temperature. Although the other pins will also
have some effect on the LM70die temperature and therefore
should not be discounted. The LM70 will provide an accurate
measurement of the temperature of the printed circuit board
on which it is mounted, because the pins represent a good
thermal path to the die. A less efficient thermal path exists
DS101223-18
between the plastic package and the LM70 die. If the ambient air temperature is significantly different from the printed
circuit board temperature, it will have a small effect on the
measured temperature.
In probe-type applications, the LM70 can be mounted inside
a sealed-end metal tube, and can then be dipped into a bath
or screwed into a threaded hole in a tank. As with any IC, the
LM70 and accompanying wiring and circuits must be kept insulated and dry, to avoid leakage and corrosion. This is especially true if the circuit may operate at cold temperatures
where condensation can occur. Printed-circuit coatings and
varnishes such as Humiseal and epoxy paints or dips are often used to insure that moisture cannot corrode the LM70 or
its connections.
