Description

STTS75

 

 

1 Description

The STTS75 is a high-precision CMOS (digital) temperature sensor IC with a delta-sigma analog-to-digital (ADC) converter and an I2C-compatible serial digital interface. It is targeted for general applications such as personal computers, system thermal management, electronics equipment, and industrial controllers, and is packaged in the industry standard 8-lead MSOP(TSSOP) and SO8 packages.

The device contains a band gap temperature sensor and programmable 9- to 12-bit ADC which monitor and digitize the temperature to a resolution up to 0.0625 °C. The STTS75 is typically accurate to (±3 °C - max) over the full temperature measurement range of

–55 °C to 125 °C with ±2 °C accuracy in the –25 °C to +100 °C range. At power-up, the STTS75 defaults to 9-bit resolution for software compatibility with the STLM75.

The STTS75 is specified for operating at supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operating at 3.3 V, the supply current is typically (75 µA).

The onboard delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts the measured temperature to a digital value that is calibrated in °C; for Fahrenheit applications a lookup table or conversion routine is required.

The STTS75 is factory-calibrated and requires no external components to measure temperature.

1.1Serial communications

The STTS75 has a simple 2-wire I2C-compatible digital serial interface which allows the user to access the data in the temperature register at any time. It communicates via the serial interface with a master controller which operates at speeds up to 400 kHz. Three pins (A0, A1, and A2) are available for address selection, and enable the user to connect up to 8 devices on the same bus without address conflict.

In addition, the serial interface gives the user easy access to all STTS75 registers to customize operation of the device.

1.2Temperature sensor output

The STTS75 temperature sensor has a dedicated open drain overlimit signal/alert (OS/INT/Alert) output which features a thermal alarm function. This function provides a user-programmable trip and turn-off temperature. It can operate in either of two selectable modes:

Section 2.3: Comparator mode, and

Section 2.4: Interrupt mode.

At power-up the STTS75 comes up in 9-bit mode and immediately begins measuring the temperature and converting the temperature to a digital value. The resolution of the digital output data is user-configurable to 9, 10, 11, or 12 bits which correspond to temperature increments of 0.5 °C, 0.25 °C, 0.125 °C, and 0.0625 °C, respectively.

STTS75

Description

 

 

The measured temperature value is compared with a temperature limit (which is stored in the 16-bit (TOS) READ/WRITE register), and the hysteresis temperature (which is stored in the 16-bit (THYS) READ/WRITE register). If the measured value exceeds these limits, the

OS/INT pin is activated (see Figure 3 on page 8).

Operation

 

After each temperature measurement and analog-to-digital conversion, the STTS75 stores

 

the temperature as a 16-bit two’s complement number in the 2-byte temperature register.

 

The most significant bit (S, bit 15) indicates if the temperature is positive or negative:

 

for positive numbers S = 0, and

 

for negative numbers S = 1.

 

The most recently converted digital measurement can be read from the temperature register

 

at any time. Since temperature conversions are performed in the background, reading the

 

temperature register does not affect the operation in progress.

 

Bits 3 through 0 of the temperature register are hardwired to logic '0.' When the STTS75 is

 

configured for 12-bit resolution, the 12 MSBs (bits 15 through 4) of the temperature register

 

will contain temperature data. For 11-bit resolution, the 11 MSBs (bits 15 through 5) of the

 

temperature register will contain data, and bit 4 will read out as logic '0.' For 10-bit

 

resolution, the 10 MSBs (bits 15 through 6) will contain data, and for 9-bit resolution the

 

9 MSBs (bits 15 through 7) will contain data and all unused LSBs will contain '0s.'

 

Table 4 on page 15 gives examples of 12-bit resolution digital output data and the

 

corresponding temperatures. The data is compared to the values in the TOS and THYS

 

registers, and then the

 

 

 

 

 

OS/INT is updated based on the result of the comparison and the

 

operating mode. The number of TOS and THYS bits used during the thermostat comparison

 

is equal to the conversion resolution set by the FT1 and FT0 bits in the configuration

 

register. For example, if the resolution is 9 bits, only the 9 MSBs of TOS and THYS will be

 

used by the thermostat comparator. The alarm fault tolerance is controlled by the FTI and

 

FTO bits in the configuration register. They are used to set up a fault queue. This prevents

 

false tripping of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

OS/INT pin when the STTS75 is used in a noisy environment (see

 

Table 2 on page 14).

 

The STTS75 also supports a special one-shot mode feature that performs a single

 

temperature measurement and returns to shutdown mode. This is especially useful for low-

 

power applications. This features is accessed by first putting the device in shutdown mode,

 

then enabling the one-shot mode (OSM) bit in the configuration register.

 

The active state of the

 

 

 

 

 

OS/INT output can be changed via the polarity (POL) bit in the

 

configuration register. The power-up default is active-low.

 

If the user does not wish to use the thermostat capabilities of the STTS75, the

 

 

 

OS/INT

 

output should be left floating.

Note:

If the thermostat is not used, the TOS and THYS registers can be used for general storage of

 

system data.

Operation

 

 

2.1Applications information

STTS75 digital temperature sensors are optimal for thermal management and thermal protection applications. They require no external components for operations except for pullup resistors on SCL, SDA, and OS/INT outputs. A 0.1 µF bypass capacitor is recommended. The sensing device of STTS75 is the chip itself. The typical interface connection for this type of digital sensor is shown in Figure 4 on page 11.

Intended applications include:

System thermal management

Computers/disk drivers

Electronics/test equipment

Power supply modules

Consumer products

Battery management

Fax/printers management

Automotive

2.2Thermal alarm function

The STTS75 thermal alarm function provides user-programmable thermostat capability and allows the STTS75 to function as a standalone thermostat without using the serial interface. The OS/INT output is the alarm output. This signal is an open drain output, and at power-up, this pin is configured with active-low polarity by default.

2.3Comparator mode

In comparator mode, each time a temperature-to-digital (T-to-D) temperature conversion occurs, the new digital temperature is compared to the value stored in the TOS and THYS registers. If a fault tolerance number of consecutive temperature measurements are greater than the value stored in the TOS register, the OS/INT output will be activated.

For example, if the FT1 and FT0 bits are equal to “10” (fault tolerance = 4), four consecutive temperature measurements must exceed TOS to activate the OS/INT output. Once the

OS/INT output is active, it will remain active until the first time the measured temperature drops below the temperature stored in the THYS register.

When the thermostat is in comparator mode, the OS/INT can be programmed to operate with any amount of hysteresis. The OS/INT output becomes active when the measured temperature exceeds the TOS value a consecutive number of times as defined by the FT1

and FT0 fault tolerance (FT) bits in the configuration register. The OS/INT then stays active when the temperature falls below the value stored in THYS register for a consecutive number of times as defined by the fault tolerance bits (FT1 and FT0). Putting the device into shutdown mode does not clear OS/INT in comparator mode.

2.4Interrupt mode

In Interrupt mode, the OS/INT output first becomes active when the measured temperature exceeds the TOS value a consecutive number of times equal to the FT value in the

configuration register. Once activated, the OS/INT can only be cleared by either putting the STTS75 into shutdown mode or by reading from any register (temperature, configuration, TOS, or THYS) on the device. Once the OS/INT has been deactivated, it will only be reactivated when the measured temperature falls below the THYS value a consecutive

number of times equal to the FT value. Figure 5 illustrates typical OS output temperature response for STTS75 configured to have a fault tolerance of 2. The interrupt/clear process is cyclical between TOS and THYS.
