LM83 Triple-Diode Input and Local Digital Temperature Sensor with Two-Wire Interface
General Description
The LM83 is a digital temperature sensor with a 2 wire serial
interface thatsensesthe voltage and thus the temperature of
three remote diodes using a Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital
converter with a digital over-temperature detector.The LM83
accurately senses its own temperature as well as the temperature of three external devices, such as Pentium II
cessors or diode connected 2N3904s. The temperature of
anyASIC can be detected using the LM83 as long as a dedicated diode (semiconductor junction) is available on the die.
Using the SMBus interface a host can access the LM83’s
registers at any time. Activation of a T_CRIT_A output occurs when any temperature is greater than a programmable
comparator limit, T_CRIT. Activation of an INT output occurs
when any temperature is greater than its corresponding programmable comparator HIGH limit.
The host can program as well as read back the state of the
T_CRIT register and the four T_HIGH registers. Three state
logic inputs allow two pins (ADD0, ADD1) to select up to 9
SMBus address locations for the LM83. The sensor powers
up with default thresholds of 127˚C for T_CRIT and all
T_HIGHs. The LM83 is pin for pin and register compatible
with the LM84 as well as the Maxim MAX1617 and the Analog Devices ADM1021.

1.0 Functional Description
The LM83 temperature sensor incorporates a band-gap type
temperature sensor using a Local or three Remote diodes
and an 8-bit ADC (Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converter).
The LM83 is compatible with the serial SMBus and I
wire interfaces. Digital comparators compare Local (LT) and
Remote (D1RT, D2RT and D3RT) temperature readings to
user-programmable setpoints (LHS, D1RHS, D2RHS,
D3RHS and TCS).Activation of the INT output indicates that
a comparison is greater than the limit preset in a HIGH register. The T_CRIT setpoint (TCS) interacts with all the temperature readings. Activation of the T_CRIT_A output indicates that any or all of the temperature readings have
exceed the T_CRIT setpoint.
1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE
The LM83 converts its own temperature as well as 3 remote
diode temperatures in the following sequence:
1. Local Temperature (LT)
2
C two
DS101058-5
DS101058-24
1. Remote Diode 2 (D2RT)
2. Remote Diode 1 (D1RT)
3. Remote Diode 3 (D3RT)
This round robin sequence takes approximately 480 ms to
complete as each temperature is digitized in approximately
120 ms.
1.2 INT OUTPUT and T_HIGH LIMITS
Each temperature reading (LT, D1RT, D2RT, and D3RT) is
associated with a T_HIGH setpoint register (LHS, D1RHS,
D2RHS, D3RHS). At the end of a temperature reading a digital comparison determines whether that reading has exceed
its HIGH setpoint. If the temperature reading is greater than
the HIGH setpoint, a bit is set in one of the Status Registers,
to indicate which temperature reading, and the INT output is
activated.
Local and remote temperature diodes are sampled in sequence by the A/D converter. The INT output and the Status
www.national.com8
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
Register flags are updated at the completion of a conversion,
which occurs approximately 60 ms after a temperature diode
is sampled. INT is deactivated when the Status Register,
containing the set bit, is read and a temperature reading is
less than or equal to it’s corresponding HIGH setpoint, as
shown in
for the INT output and related circuitry.

Note: Status Register Bits are reset by a read of Status Register where
bit is located.

FIGURE 5. INT output related circuitry logic diagram
The INT output can be disabled by setting the INT mask bit,
D7, of the configuration register. INT can be programmed to
be active high or low by the state of the INT inversion bit, D1,
in the configuration register. A “0” would program INT to be
active low. INT is an open-drain output.
1.3 T_CRIT_A OUTPUT and T_CRIT LIMIT
T_CRIT_A is activated when any temperature reading is
greater than the limit preset in the critical temperature setpoint register (T_CRIT), as shown in
Figure 6
. The Status
Registers can be read to determine which event caused the
alarm. A bit in the Status Registers is set high to indicate
which temperature reading exceeded the T_CRIT setpoint
temperature and caused the alarm, see
Section 2.3
.
DS101058-20
FIGURE 7. T_CRIT_A output related circuitry logic
diagram
Located in the Configuration Register are the mask bits for
each temperature reading, see
Section 2.5
. When a mask bit
is set, its corresponding status flag will not propagate to the
T_CRIT_A output, but will still be set in the Status Registers.
Setting all four mask bits or programming the T_CRIT setpoint to 127˚C will disable the T_CRIT_A output.
1.4 POWER ON RESET DEFAULT STATES
LM83 always powers up to these known default states:
1. Command Register set to 00h
2. Local Temperature set to 0˚C
www.national.com9
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
LM83
3. Diode 1, Diode 2, and Diode 3 Remote Temperature set
to 0˚C until the LM83 senses a diode present between
the D+ and D− input pins.
4. Status Registers 1 and 2 set to 00h.
5. Configuration Register set to 00h; INT enabled and all
T_CRIT setpoints enabled to activate T_CRIT_A.
6. Local and all Remote T_CRIT set to 127˚C
1.5 SMBus INTERFACE
The LM83 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the
SMBCLK line is an input (no clock is generated by the LM83)
and the SMBData line is bi-directional. According to SMBus
specifications, the LM83 has a 7-bit slave address. Bit 4 (A3)
of the slave address is hard wired inside the LM83 to a 1.
The remainder of the address bits are controlled by the state
of the address select pins ADD1 and ADD0, and are set by
connecting these pins to ground for a low, (0) , to V
high, (1), or left floating (TRI-LEVEL).
Temperature data can be read from the Local and Remote
Temperature, T_CRIT,and HIGH setpoint registers; and written to the T_CRIT and HIGH setpoint registers. Temperature
data is represented by an 8-bit, two’s complement byte with
an LSB (Least Significant Bit) equal to 1˚C:

1.7 OPEN-DRAIN OUTPUTS
The SMBData, INT and T_CRIT_A outputs are open-drain
outputs and do not have internal pull-ups. A “high” level will
not be observed on these pins until pull-up current is provided from some external source, typically a pull-up resistor.
Choice of resistor value depends on many system factors
but, in general, the pull-up resistor should be as large as
possible. This will minimize any internal temperature reading
errors due to internal heating of the LM83. The maximum resistance of the pull up, based on LM83 specification for High
Level Output Current, to provide a 2.1V high level, is 30kΩ.
1.8 DIODE FAULT DETECTION
Before each external conversion the LM83 goes through an
external diode fault detection sequence. If a D+ input is
shorted to V
be +127 ˚C, and its OPEN bit in the Status Register will be
set. If the T_CRIT setpoint is set to less than +127 ˚C then
the D+ inputs RTCRIT bit in the Status Register will be set
which will activate the T_CRIT_A output, if enabled. If a D+
is shorted to GND or D−, its temperature reading will be 0 ˚C
and its OPEN bit in the Status Register will not be set.
or floating then the temperature reading will

The LM83 latches the state of the address select pins during
the first read or write on the SMBus. Changing the state of
the address select pins after the first read or write to any device on the SMBus will not change the slave address of the
LM83.

1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
1.9 COMMUNICATING with the LM83
LM83
There are 19 data registers in the LM83, selected by the
Command Register. At power-up the Command Register is
set to “00”, the location for the Read LocalTemperatureRegister. The Command Register latches the last location it was
set to. Reading the Status Register resets T_CRIT_A and
INT, so long as a temperature comparison does not signal a
fault (see
Sections 1.2 and 1.3
). All other registers are predefined as read only or write only. Read and write registers
with the same function contain mirrored data.
AWrite to the LM83 will always include the address byte and
the command byte. A write to any register requires one data
byte.
Reading the LM83 can take place either of two ways:
1. If the location latched in the Command Register is cor-
rect (most of the time it is expected that the Command
Register will point to one of the Read Temperature Reg-
DS101058-9
isters because that will be the data most frequently read
from the LM83), then the read can simply consist of an
address byte, followed by retrieving the data byte.
2. If the Command Register needs to be set, then an address byte, command byte, repeat start, and another address byte will accomplish a read.
The data byte has the most significant bit first. At the end of
a read, the LM83 can accept either Acknowledge or No Acknowledge from the Master (No Acknowledge is typically
used as a signal for the slave that the Master has read its
last byte).
1.10 SERIAL INTERFACE ERROR RECOVERY
The LM83 SMBus lines will be reset to the SMBus idle state
if the SMBData or SMBCLK lines are held low for 40 ms or
more (t
). The LM83 may or may not reset the state of

the serial interface logic if either of the SMBData or SMBCLK
lines are held low between 25 ms and 40 ms. TIMEOUT allows a clean recovery in cases where the master may be reset while the LM83 is transmitting a low bit thus preventing
possible bus lock up.
Whenever the LM83 sees the start condition its serial interface will reset to the beginning of the communication, thus
the LM83 will expect to see an address byte next. This simplifies recovery when the master is reset while the LM83 is
transmitting a high.

4.0 Application Hints
The LM83 can be applied easily in the same way as other
integrated-circuit temperature sensors, and its remote diode
sensing capability allows it to be used in new ways as well.
It can be soldered to a printed circuit board, and because the
path of best thermal conductivity is between the die and the
pins, its temperature will effectively be that of the printed circuit board lands and traces soldered to the LM83’s pins. This
presumes that the ambient air temperature is almost the
same as the surface temperature of the printed circuit board;
if the air temperature is much higher or lower than the surface temperature, the actual temperature of the of the LM83
die will be at an intermediate temperature between the surface and air temperatures. Again, the primary thermal conduction path is through the leads, so the circuit board temperature will contribute to the die temperature much more
strongly than will the air temperature.
To measure temperature external to the LM83’s die, use a
remote diode. This diode can be located on the die of a target IC, allowing measurement of the IC’s temperature, independent of the LM83’s temperature. The LM83 has been optimized to measure the remote diode of a Pentium II
processor as shown in
used to sense the temperature of external objects or ambient
air.Remember that a discrete diode’s temperature will be affected, and often dominated, by the temperature of its leads.

.A discrete diode can also be
where:
η is the non-ideality factor of the process the diode is
•
manufactured on,
q is the electron charge,
•
k is the Boltzmann’s constant,
•
N is the current ratio,
•
T is the absolute temperature in ˚K.
•
The temperature sensor then measures ∆V
and converts
BE
to digital data. In this equation, k and q are well defined universal constants, and N is a parameter controlled by the temperature sensor. The only other parameter is η, which depends on the diode that is used for measurement. Since
∆V
is proportional to both η and T, the variations in η can-
BE
not be distinguished from variations in temperature. Since
the non-ideality factor is not controlled by the temperature
sensor,it will directly add to the inaccuracy of the sensor.For
the Pentium II Intel specifies a
±
1% variation in η from part
to part. As an example, assume a temperature sensor has
an accuracy specification of
±
3 ˚C at room temperature of 25
˚C and the process used to manufacture the diode has a
non-ideality variation of
±
1%. The resulting accuracy of the
temperature sensor at room temperature will be:
T
=±3˚C+(±1% of 298 ˚K) =±6 ˚C.
ACC
The additional inaccuracy in the temperature measurement
caused by η, can be eliminated if each temperature sensor is
calibrated with the remote diode that it will be paired with.

Pentium or 3904 Temperature vs LM83 Temperature
Reading
Most silicon diodes do not lend themselves well to this application. It is recommended that a 2N3904 transistor base
emitter junction be used with the collector tied to the base.
A diode connected 2N3904 approximates the junction available on a Pentium microprocessor for temperature measurement. Therefore, the LM83 can sense the temperature of this
diode effectively.
3.1 ACCURACY EFFECTS OF DIODE NON-IDEALITY
FACTOR
The technique used in today’s remote temperature sensors
is to measure the change in V
at two different operating
BE
points of a diode. For a bias current ratio of N:1, this difference is given as:
3.2 PCB LAYOUT for MINIMIZING NOISE
In a noisy environment, such as a processor mother board,
layout considerations are very critical. Noise induced on
traces running between the remote temperature diode sensor and the LM83 can cause temperature conversion errors.
The following guidelines should be followed:
1. Place a 0.1 µF power supply bypass capacitor as close
as possible to the V
pin and the recommended 2.2 nF
CC
capacitor as close as possible to the D+ and D− pins.
Make sure the traces to the 2.2nF capacitor are
matched.
2. The recommended 2.2nF diode bypass capacitor actu-
ally has a range of 200pF to 3.3nF. The average temperature accuracy will not degrade. Increasing the capacitance will lower the corner frequency where
differential noise error affects the temperature reading
thus producing a reading that is more stable. Conversely, lowering the capacitance will increase the corner frequency where differential noise error affects the
temperature reading thus producing a reading that is
less stable.
3. Ideally, the LM83 should be placed within 10cm of the
Processor diode pins with the traces being as straight,
short and identical as possible. Trace resistance of 1Ω
can cause as much as 1˚C of error.
4. Diode traces should be surrounded by a GND guard ring
to either side, above and below if possible. This GND
guard should not be between the D+ and D− lines. In the
event that noise does couple to the diode lines it would
be ideal if it is coupled common mode. That is equally to
the D+ and D− lines.(See
Figure 10
)
5. Avoid routing diode traces in close proximity to power
supply switching or filtering inductors.

6. Avoid running diode traces close to or parallel to high
speed digital and bus lines. Diode traces should be kept
at least 2cm. apart from the high speed digital traces.
7. If it is necessary to cross high speed digital traces, the
diode traces and the high speed digital traces should
cross at a 90 degree angle.
8. The ideal place to connect the LM83’s GND pin is as
close as possible to the Processors GND associated
with the sense diode. For the Pentium II this would be
pin A14.
9. Leakage current between D+ and GND should be kept
to a minimum. One nano-ampere of leakage can cause
as much as 1˚C of error in the diode temperature reading. Keeping the printed circuit board as clean as possible will minimize leakage current.

vent successful SMBus communication with the LM83. SMBus no acknowledge is the most common symptom, causing
unnecessary traffic on the bus. Although, the SMBus maximum frequency of communication is rather low (100kHz
max) care still needs to be taken to ensure proper termination within a system with multiple parts on the bus and long
printed circuit board traces. An R/C lowpass filter with a 3db
corner frequency of about 40MHz has been included on the
LM83’s SMBCLK input. Additional resistance can be added
in series with the SMBData and SMBCLK lines to further
help filter noise and ringing. Minimize noise coupling by
keeping digital traces out of switching power supply areas as
well as ensuring that digital lines containing high speed data
communications cross at right angles to the SMBData and
SMBCLK lines.
