DESCRIPTION
The LM86 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with
a 2-wire System Management Bus (SMBus) serial
interface. The LM86 accurately measures its own
temperature as well as the temperature of an external
device, such as processor thermal diode or diode
connected transistor such as the 2N3904. The
temperatureofanyASICcanbeaccurately
determined using the LM86 as long as a dedicated
diode (semiconductor junction) is available on the
target die. The LM86 remote sensor accuracy of
±0.75°C is factory trimmed for the 1.008 typical
nonideality factor of the mobile Pentium™ III thermal
diode. The LM86 has an Offset register to allow
measuring other diodes without requiring continuous
softwaremanagement.Contact
hardware.monitor.team@nsc.com to obtain the latest
data for new processors.
Activation of the ALERT output occurs when any
temperature goes outside a preprogrammed window
set by the HIGH and LOW temperature limit registers
or exceeds the T_CRIT temperature limit. Activation
of the T_CRIT_A occurs when any temperature
exceeds the T_CRIT programmed limit. The LM86 is
pin and register compatible with the the Analog
Devices ADM1032 and Maxim MAX6657/8.

The LM86 temperature sensor incorporates a delta VBEbased temperature sensor using a Local or Remote
diode and a 10-bit plus sign ADC (Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converter). The LM86 is compatible with the
serial SMBus version 2.0 two-wire interface. Digital comparators compare the measured Local Temperature (LT)
to the Local High (LHS), Local Low (LLS) and Local T_CRIT (LCS) user-programmable temperature limit
registers. The measured Remote Temperature (RT) is digitally compared to the Remote High (RHS), Remote
Low (RLS) and Remote T_CRIT (RCS) user-programmable temperature limit registers. Activation of the ALERT
output indicates that a comparison is greater than the limit preset in a T_CRIT or HIGH limit register or less than
the limit preset in a LOW limit register. The T_CRIT_A output responds as a true comparator with built in
hysteresis. The hysteresis is set by the value placed in the Hysteresis register (TH). Activation of T_CRIT_A
occurs when the temperature is above the T_CRIT setpoint. T_CRIT_A remains activated until the temperature
goes below the setpoint calculated by T_CRIT − TH. The hysteresis register impacts both the remote
temperature and local temperature readings.
The LM86 may be placed in a low power consumption (Shutdown) mode by setting the RUN/STOP bit found in
the Configuration register. In the Shutdown mode, the LM86's SMBus interface remains while all circuitry not
required is turned off.
The Local temperature reading and setpoint data registers are 8-bits wide. The format of the 11-bit remote
temperature data is a 16-bit left justified word. Two 8-bit registers, high and low bytes, are provided for each
setpoint as well as the temperature reading. Two offset registers (RTOLB and RTOHB) can be used to
compensate for nonideality error. The remote temperature reading reported is adjusted by subtracting from or
adding to the actual temperature reading the value placed in the offset registers.
CONVERSION SEQUENCE
The LM86 takes approximately 31.25 ms to convert the Local Temperature (LT), Remote Temperature (RT), and
to update all of its registers. Only during the conversion process the busy bit (D7) in the Status register (02h) is
high. These conversions are addressed in a round robin sequence. The conversion rate may be modified by the
Conversion Rate Register (04h). When the conversion rate is modified a delay is inserted between conversions,
the actual conversion time remains at 31.25ms. Different conversion rates will cause the LM86 to draw different
amounts of supply current as shown in Figure 3.
THE ALERT OUTPUT
The LM86's ALERT pin is an active-low open-drain output that is triggered by a temperature conversion that is
outside the limits defined by the temperature setpoint registers. Reset of the ALERT output is dependent upon
the selected method of use. The LM86's ALERT pin is versatile and will accommodate three different methods of
use to best serve the system designer: as a temperature comparator, as a temperature based interrupt flag, and
as part of an SMBus ALERT system. The three methods of use are further described below. The ALERT and
interrupt methods are different only in how the user interacts with the LM86.

SNIS114E –DECEMBER 2001–REVISED MARCH 2013
Each temperature reading (LT and RT) is associated with a T_CRIT setpoint register (LCS, RCS), a HIGH
setpoint register (LHS and RHS) and a LOW setpoint register (LLS and RLS). At the end of every temperature
reading, a digital comparison determines whether that reading is above its HIGH or T_CRIT setpoint or below its
LOW setpoint. If so, the corresponding bit in the STATUS REGISTER is set. If the ALERT mask bit is not high,
any bit set in the STATUS REGISTER, with the exception of Busy (D7) and OPEN (D2), will cause the ALERT
output to be pulled low. Any temperature conversion that is out of the limits defined by the temperature setpoint
registers will trigger an ALERT. Additionally, the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register must be cleared to
trigger an ALERT in all modes.
ALERT Output as a Temperature Comparator
When the LM86 is implemented in a system in which it is not serviced by an interrupt routine, the ALERT output
could be used as a temperature comparator. Under this method of use, once the condition that triggered the
ALERT to go low is no longer present, the ALERT is de-asserted (Figure 4). For example, if the ALERT output
was activated by the comparison of LT > LHS, when this condition is no longer true the ALERT will return HIGH.
This mode allows operation without software intervention, once all registers are configured during set-up. In order
for the ALERT to be used as a temperature comparator, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and
ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set high. This is not the power on default state.
Figure 4. ALERT Comparator Temperature Response Diagram
ALERT Output as an Interrupt
The LM86's ALERT output can be implemented as a simple interrupt signal when it is used to trigger an interrupt
service routine. In such systems it is undesirable for the interrupt flag to repeatedly trigger during or before the
interrupt service routine has been completed. Under this method of operation, during a read of the STATUS
REGISTER the LM86 will set the ALERT mask bit (D7 of the Configuration register) if any bit in the STATUS
REGISTER is set, with the exception of Busy (D7) and OPEN (D2). This prevents further ALERT triggering until
the master has reset the ALERT mask bit, at the end of the interrupt service routine. The STATUS REGISTER
bits are cleared only upon a read command from the master (see Figure 5) and will be re-asserted at the end of
the next conversion if the triggering condition(s) persist(s). In order for the ALERT to be used as a dedicated
interrupt signal, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must
be set low. This is the power on default state.
The following sequence describes the response of a system that uses the ALERT output pin as a interrupt flag:
1. Master Senses ALERT low
2. Master reads the LM86 STATUS REGISTER to determine what caused the ALERT
3. LM86 clears STATUS REGISTER, resets the ALERT HIGH and sets the ALERT mask bit (D7 in the
Configuration register).
4. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to be triggered. The fan is started, setpoint limits are
adjusted, etc.
5. Master resets the ALERT mask (D7 in the Configuration register).

Figure 5. ALERT Output as an Interrupt Temperature Response Diagram
ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT
When the ALERT output is connected to one or more ALERT outputs of other SMBus compatible devices and to
a master, an SMBus alert line is created. Under this implementation, the LM86's ALERT should be operated
using the ARA (Alert Response Address) protocol. The SMBus 2.0 ARA protocol, defined in the SMBus
specification 2.0, is a procedure designed to assist the master in resolving which part generated an interrupt and
service that interrupt while impeding system operation as little as possible.
The SMBus alert line is connected to the open-drain ports of all devices on the bus thereby AND'ing them
together. The ARA is a method by which with one command the SMBus master may identify which part is pulling
the SMBus alert line LOW and prevent it from pulling it LOW again for the same triggering condition. When an
ARA command is received by all devices on the bus, the devices pulling the SMBus alert line LOW, first, send
their address to the master and second, release the SMBus alert line after recognizing a successful transmission
of their address.
The SMBus 1.1 and 2.0 specification state that in response to an ARA (Alert Response Address) “after
acknowledging the slave address the device must disengage its SMBALERT pulldown”. Furthermore, “if the host
still sees SMBALERT low when the message transfer is complete, it knows to read the ARA again”. This SMBus
“disengaging of SMBALERT” requirement prevents locking up the SMBus alert line. Competitive parts may
address this “disengaging of SMBALERT” requirement differently than the LM86 or not at all. SMBus systems
that implement the ARA protocol as suggested for the LM86 will be fully compatible with all competitive parts.
The LM86 fulfills “disengaging of SMBALERT” by setting the ALERT mask bit (bit D7 in the Configuration
register, at address 09h) after successfully sending out its address in response to an ARA and releasing the
ALERT output pin. Once the ALERT mask bit is activated, the ALERT output pin will be disabled until enabled by
software. In order to enable the ALERT the master must read the STATUS REGISTER, at address 02h, during
the interrupt service routine and then reset the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register to 0 at the end of
the interrupt service routine.
The following sequence describes the ARA response protocol.
1. Master Senses SMBus alert line low
2. Master sends a START followed by the Alert Response Address (ARA) with a Read Command.
3. Alerting Device(s) send ACK.
4. Alerting Device(s) send their Address. While transmitting their address, alerting devices sense whether their
address has been transmitted correctly. (The LM86 will reset its ALERT output and set the ALERT mask bit
once its complete address has been transmitted successfully.)
5. Master/slave NoACK
6. Master sends STOP
7. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to be triggered. The STATUS REGISTER is read and
fan started, setpoint limits adjusted, etc.
8. Master resets the ALERT mask (D7 in the Configuration register).
The ARA, 000 1100, is a general call address. No device should ever be assigned this address.
Bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set low in
order for the LM86 to respond to the ARA command.
The ALERT output can be disabled by setting the ALERT mask bit, D7, of the Configuration register. The power
on default is to have the ALERT mask bit and the ALERT configure bit low.
Figure 6. ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT Temperature Response Diagram
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 7. The Status Register can be read to determine which event
caused the alarm. A bit in the Status Register is set high to indicate which temperature reading exceeded the
T_CRIT setpoint temperature and caused the alarm, see STATUS REGISTER (SR).
Local and remote temperature diodes are sampled in sequence by the A/D converter. The T_CRIT_A output and
the Status Register flags are updated after every Local and Remote temperature conversion. T_CRT_A follows
the state of the comparison, it is reset when the temperature falls below the setpoint RCS-TH. The Status
Register flags are reset only after the Status Register is read and if a temperature conversion(s) is/are below the
T_CRIT setpoint, as shown in . Figure 7

SMBus INTERFACE
The LM86 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBData line is bidirectional. The LM86 never drives the SMBCLK line and it does not support clock stretching. According to
SMBus specifications, the LM86 has a 7-bit slave address. All bits A6 through A0 are internally programmed and
can not be changed by software or hardware.
The complete slave address is:

TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
Temperature data can only be read from the Local and Remote Temperature registers; the setpoint registers
(T_CRIT, LOW, HIGH) are read/write.
Remote temperature data is represented by an 11-bit, two's complement word with an LSB (Least Significant Bit)
equal to 0.125°C. The data format is a left justified 16-bit word available in two 8-bit registers:

Local Temperature data is represented by an 8-bit, two's complement byte with an LSB (Least Significant Bit)
equal to 1°C:
The SMBData, ALERT 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 by some external source, typically a pullup 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
LM86. The maximum resistance of the pull-up to provide a 2.1V high level, based on LM86 specification for High
Level Output Current with the supply voltage at 3.0V, is 82kΩ(5%) or 88.7kΩ(1%).
DIODE FAULT DETECTION
The LM86 is equipped with operational circuitry designed to detect fault conditions concerning the remote diode.
In the event that the D+ pin is detected as shorted to VDDor floating, the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB)
register is loaded with +127°C, the Remote Temperature Low Byte (RTLB) register is loaded with 0, and the
OPEN bit (D2) in the status register is set. As a result, if the Remote T_CRIT setpoint register (RCS) is set to a
value less than +127°C the ALERT and T_Crit output pins will be pulled low, if the Alert Mask and T_Crit Mask
are disabled. If the Remote HIGH Setpoint High Byte Register (RHSHB) is set to a value less than +127°C then
ALERT will be pulled low, if the Alert Mask is disabled. The OPEN bit itself will not trigger and ALERT.
In the event that the D+ pin is shorted to ground or D−, the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register is
loaded with −128°C (1000 0000) and the OPEN bit (D2) in the status register will not be set. Since operating the
LM86 at −128°C is beyond it's operational limits, this temperature reading represents this shorted fault condition.
If the value in the Remote Low Setpoint High Byte Register (RLSHB) is more than −128°C and the Alert Mask is
disabled, ALERT will be pulled low.
Remote diode temperature sensors that have been previously released and are competitive with the LM86 output
a code of 0°C if the external diode is short-circuited. This change is an improvement that allows a reading of 0°C
to be truly interpreted as a genuine 0°C reading and not a fault condition.
COMMUNICATING WITH THE LM86
The data registers in the LM86 are selected by the Command Register. At power-up the Command Register is
set to “00”, the location for the Read Local Temperature Register. The Command Register latches the last
location it was set to. Each data register in the LM86 falls into one of four types of user accessibility:
1. Read only
2. Write only
3. Read/Write same address
4. Read/Write different address
A Write to the LM86 will always include the address byte and the command byte. A write to any register requires
one data byte.
Reading the LM86 can take place either of two ways:
1. If the location latched in the Command Register is correct (most of the time it is expected that the Command
Register will point to one of the Read Temperature Registers because that will be the data most frequently
read from the LM86), 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 LM86 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). It takes the LM86 31.25ms to measure the temperature of the remote diode and internal diode.
When retrieving all 10 bits from a previous remote diode temperature measurement, the master must insure that
all 10 bits are from the same temperature conversion. This may be achieved by using one-shot mode or by
setting the conversion rate and monitoring the busy bit such that no conversion occurs in between reading the
MSB and LSB of the last temperature conversion.

SERIAL INTERFACE RESET
In the event that the SMBus Master is RESET while the LM86 is transmitting on the SMBData line, the LM86
must be returned to a known state in the communication protocol. This may be done in one of two ways:
1. When SMBData is LOW, the LM86 SMBus state machine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBData
or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35ms (t
TIMEOUT
devices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK or SMBData lines are held low for 25-35ms. Therefore, to
insure a timeout of all devices on the bus the SMBCLK or SMBData lines must be held low for at least 35ms.
2. When SMBData is HIGH, have the master initiate an SMBus start. The LM86 will respond properly to an
SMBus start condition at any point during the communication. After the start the LM86 will expect an SMBus
address byte.

In order to suppress erroneous remote temperature readings due to noise, the LM86 incorporates a userconfigured digital filter. The filter is accessed in the FILTER and ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER at BFh. The
filter can be set according to the following table.

Fault Queue
In order to suppress erroneous ALERT or T_CRIT triggering the LM86 incorporates a Fault Queue. The Fault
Queue acts to insure a remote temperature measurement is genuinely beyond a HIGH, LOW or T_CRIT setpoint
by not triggering until three consecutive out of limit measurements have been made, see Figure 14. The fault
queue defaults off upon power-up and may be activated by setting bit D0 in the Configuration register (09h) to
“1”.

The One-Shot register is used to initiate a single conversion and comparison cycle when the device is in standby

The LM86 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 LM86'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 LM86 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 LM86'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 LM86's temperature. The LM86
has been optimized to measure the remote diode of a Pentium III processor as shown in Figure 15. A discrete
diode can also be 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.
Figure 15. Mobile Pentium III or 3904 Temperature vs LM86 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 III microprocessor for temperature
measurement. Therefore, the LM86 can sense the temperature of this diode effectively.
DIODE NONIDEALITY
Diode Nonideality Factor Effect on Accuracy
When a transistor is connected as a diode, the following relationship holds for variables VBE, T and If:
(1)
where:
(2)
•q = 1.6×10
•T = Absolute Temperature in Kelvin
•k = 1.38×10
•η is the nonideality factor of the process the diode is manufactured on,
•IS= Saturation Current and is process dependent,
•If= Forward Current through the base emitter junction
•VBE= Base Emitter Voltage drop
In the active region, the -1 term is negligible and may be eliminated, yielding the following equation
In the above equation, η and ISare dependant upon the process that was used in the fabrication of the particular
diode. By forcing two currents with a very controlled ration (N) and measuring the resulting voltage difference, it
is possible to eliminate the ISterm. Solving for the forward voltage difference yields the relationship:
(4)
The nonideality factor, η, is the only other parameter not accounted for and depends on the diode that is used for
measurement. Since ΔVBEis proportional to both η and T, the variations in η cannot be distinguished from
variations in temperature. Since the nonideality factor is not controlled by the temperature sensor, it will directly
add to the inaccuracy of the sensor. For the Pentium III Intel specifies a ±1% variation in η from part to part. As
an example, assume a temperature sensor has an accuracy specification of ±1°C at room temperature of 25 °C
and the process used to manufacture the diode has a nonideality variation of ±1%. The resulting accuracy of the
temperature sensor at room temperature will be:
T
= ± 1°C + (±1% of 298 °K) = ±4 °C(5)
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. The following table shows the variations in
nonideality for a variety of processors.

Compensating for Diode Nonideality
In order to compensate for the errors introduced by nonideality, the temperature sensor is calibrated for a
particular processor. National Semiconductor temperature sensors are always calibrated to the typical nonideality
of a given processor type. The LM86 is calibrated for the nonideality of a mobile Pentium III processor, 1.008.
When a temperature sensor calibrated for a particular processor type is used with a different processor type or a
given processor type has a nonideality that strays from the typical, errors are introduced. Figure 16 shows the
minimum and maximum errors introduced to a temperature sensor calibrated specifically to the typical value of
the processor type it is connected to. The errors in this figure are attributed only to the variation in nonideality
from the typical value. In Figure 17 is a plot of the errors that result from using a temperature sensor calibrated
for a Pentium II, the LM84, with a typical Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon MP Model 6.

Sensor is Not Calibrated to Typical Nonideality

Temperature errors associated with nonideality may be reduced in a specific temperature range of concern
through use of the offset registers (11h and 12h). Figure 18 shows how the offset register may be used to
compensate for the nonideality errors shown in Figure 17. For the case of nonideality=1.008, the offset register
was set to −0.5°C resulting in the calculated residual error as shown in Figure 18. This offset has resulted in an
error of less than 0.05°C for the temperatures measured in the critical range between 60 to 100°C. This method
yields a first order correction factor.

setting of the offset register for different processor types.

SNIS114E –DECEMBER 2001–REVISED MARCH 2013
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 LM86 can cause temperature
conversion errors. Keep in mind that the signal level the LM86 is trying to measure is in microvolts. The following
guidelines should be followed:
1. Place a 0.1 µF power supply bypass capacitor as close as possible to the VDDpin and the recommended 2.2
nF capacitor as close as possible to the LM86's D+ and D− pins. Make sure the traces to the 2.2nF capacitor
are matched.
2. The recommended 2.2nF diode bypass capacitor actually has a range of TBDpF 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 LM86 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. This error can be
compensated by using the Remote Temperature Offset Registers, since the value placed in these registers
will automatically be subtracted from or added to the remote temperature reading.
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.
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 LM86's GND pin is as close as possible to the Processors GND associated
with the sense diode.
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.
Noise coupling into the digital lines greater than 400mVp-p (typical hysteresis) and undershoot less than 500mV
below GND, may prevent successful SMBus communication with the LM86. 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 RC lowpass filter with a 3db
corner frequency of about 40MHz is included on the LM86'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.
