The TMP400 is a remote temperature sensor monitor
with a built-in local temperature sensor. The remote
temperature sensor diode-connected transistors are
typically low-cost, NPN- or PNP-type transistors or
diodes that are an integral part of microcontrollers,
microprocessors, or FPGAs.
Remote accuracy is ± 1 ° C for multiple IC
manufacturers, with no calibration needed. The
Two-Wire serial interface accepts SMBus write byte,
read byte, send byte, and receive byte commands to
program the alarm thresholds and to read
temperature data.
The TMP400 is customizable with programmable:
series resistance cancellation, non-ideality factor,
resolution, and threshold limits. Other features are:
minimum and maximum temperature monitors, wide
remote temperature measurement range (up to
+127.9375 ° C), diode fault detection, and temperature
alert function.
The TMP400 is available in a QSSOP-16 package.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

TMP400
SBOS404 – DECEMBER 2007
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TMP400 is a dual-channel digital temperature
sensor that combines a local die temperature
measurement channel and a remote junction
temperature measurement channel in a QSSOP-16
package. The TMP400 is Two-Wire and SMBus
interface-compatible, and is specified over a
temperature range of – 40 ° C to +125 ° C. The TMP400
contains multiple registers for holding configuration
information, temperature measurement results,
temperature comparator maximum/minimum limits,
and status information.
User-programmed high and low temperature limits
stored in the TMP400 can be used to monitor local
and remote temperatures to trigger an over/under
temperature alarm ( ALERT).
The TMP400 requires only a transistor connected
between D+ and D – for proper remote temperature
sensing operation. The SCL and SDA interface pins
require pull-up resistors as part of the communication
bus, while ALERT is an open-drain output that also
needs a pull − up resistor. ALERT may be shared with
other devices if desired for a wired-OR
implementation. A 0.1 µ F power-supply bypass
capacitor is recommended for good local bypassing.
Figure 11 shows a typical configuration for the
TMP400.
SERIES RESISTANCE CANCELLATION
Series resistance in an application circuit that typically
results from printed circuit board (PCB) trace
resistance and remote line length (see Figure 11 ) can
be automatically programmed to be cancelled by the
TMP400 by setting the RC bit to '1' in the Resolution
Register, preventing what would otherwise result in a
temperature offset.
A total of up to 3k Ω of series line resistance is
cancelled by the TMP400 if the RC bit is enabled,
eliminating the need for additional characterization
and temperature offset correction. Upon power-up,
the RC bit is disabled (RC = 0).
See the two Remote Temperature Error vs Series
Resistance typical characteristics curves (Figure 4
and Figure 5 ) for details on the effect of series
resistance and power-supply voltage on sensed
remote temperature error.
(1) Diode-connected configuration provides better settling time. Transistor-connected configuration provides better series resistance
cancellation.

DIFFERENTIAL INPUT CAPACITANCE
The TMP400 tolerates differential input capacitance
of up to 1000pF if RC = 1 (if RC = 0, input
capacitance can be as high as 2200pF) with minimal
change in temperature error. The effect of
capacitance on sensed remote temperature error is
illustrated in the typical characteristic curve, Remote
Temperature Error vs Differential Capacitance
(Figure 6 ).
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT DATA
Temperature measurement data are taken over a
default range of – 55 ° C to +127.9375 ° C for both local
and remote locations.
Temperature data resulting from conversions within
the default measurement range are represented in
binary form, as shown in Table 1 , Binary column.
Note that any temperature above +127.9375 ° C
results in a value of 127.9375 (7Fh/F0h).
Temperatures below – 65 ° C results in a value of – 65
(BF/00h). The TMP400 is specified only for ambient
temperatures ranging from – 40 ° C to +125 ° C.
Parameters in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table
must be observed.

byte stores the decimal fraction value of the
temperature and allows a higher measurement
resolution. The measurement resolution for the
remote channel is 0.0625 ° C, and is not adjustable.
The measurement resolution for the local channel is
adjustable; it can be set for 0.5 ° C, 0.25 ° C, 0.125 ° C,
or 0.0625 ° C by setting the RES1 and RES0 bits of
the Resolution Register; see the Resolution Register
section (Table 5 ).
REGISTER INFORMATION
The TMP400 contains multiple registers for holding
configuration information, temperature measurement
results, temperature comparator maximum/minimum,
limits, and status information. These registers are
described in Figure 12 and Table 2 .
POINTER REGISTER
Figure 12 shows the internal register structure of the
TMP400. The 8-bit Pointer Register is used to
address a given data register. The Pointer Register
identifies which of the data registers should respond
to a read or write command on the Two-Wire bus.
This register is set with every write command. A write
command must be issued to set the proper value in
the Pointer Register before executing a read
command. Table 2 describes the pointer address of
the registers available in the TMP400. The power-on
reset (POR) value of the Pointer Register is 00h
(0000 0000b).
Both local and remote temperature data use two
bytes for data storage. The high byte stores the
temperature with 1 ° C resolution. The second (or low)

The TMP400 has four 8-bit registers that hold
temperature measurement results. Both the local

temperature high limit is obtained by reading the high
byte from pointer address 05h and the low byte from
pointer address 16h. The power-on reset value of the

The TMP400 has eight registers for setting
The remote temperature low limit is set by writing the
high byte to pointer address 0Eh and writing the low
byte to pointer address 14h, or by using a two-byte
write to pointer address 0Eh. The remote temperature

measurement channels. These registers have read

Registers for both channels span two registers, as do

CONFIGURATION REGISTER
The Configuration Register controls shutdown mode
and disables the ALERT pin. The Configuration
Register is set by writing to pointer address 09h and
read by reading from pointer address 03h.
The MASK bit (bit 7) enables or disables the ALERT
pin output. If MASK is set to ‘ 0 ’ , the ALERT pin goes
low when one of the temperature measurement
channels exceeds its high or low limits for the chosen
number of consecutive conversions. If the MASK bit
is set to ‘ 1 ’ , the TMP400 retains the ALERT pin
The shutdown (SD) bit (bit 6) enables or disables the
temperature measurement circuitry. If SD = 0, the
TMP400 converts continuously at the rate set in the
conversion rate register. When SD is set to ‘ 1 ’ , the
TMP400 immediately stops converting and enters a
shutdown mode. When SD is set to ‘ 0 ’ again, the
TMP400 resumes continuous conversions.
The remaining bits of the Configuration Register are
reserved and must always be set to ‘ 0 ’ . The power-on
reset value for this register is 00h. Table 4
summarizes the bits of the Configuration Register.

RESOLUTION REGISTER
The RES1 and RES0 bits (resolution bits 1 and 0,
respectively) of the Resolution Register set the
resolution of the local temperature measurement
channel. Remote temperature measurement channel
resolution is not affected. Changing the local channel
resolution also affects the conversion time and rate of
the TMP400. The Resolution Register is set by
writing to pointer address 1Ah and is read by reading
from pointer address 1Ah. Table 5 shows the
resolution bits for the Resolution Register.

ONE-SHOT (OS)
The TMP400 features a One-Shot Temperature
Measurement Mode. When the device is in Shutdown
Mode, writing a ‘ 1 ’ to the OS bit starts a single
temperature conversion. The device returns to the
shutdown state at the completion of the single
conversion. This mode is useful to reduce power
consumption in the TMP400 when continuous
temperature monitoring is not required. When the
configuration register is read, the OS bit always reads
'0'
CONVERSION RATE REGISTER
The Conversion Rate Register controls the rate at
which temperature conversions are performed. This
register adjusts the idle time between conversions but
not the conversion timing itself, thereby allowing the
TMP400 power dissipation to be balanced with the
temperature register update rate. Table 6 shows the
conversion rate options and corresponding current
consumption. By default, the TMP400 converts every
four seconds.
N-FACTOR CORRECTION REGISTER
The TMP400 allows for a different n -factor value to
be used for converting remote channel
measurements to temperature. The remote channel
uses sequential current excitation to extract a
differential V
the temperature of the remote transistor. Equation 1
relates this voltage and temperature.
The value n in Equation 1 is a characteristic of the
particular transistor used for the remote channel. The
default value for the TMP400 is n = 1.008. The value
in the N-Factor Correction Register may be used to
adjust the effective n -factor according to Equation 2
and Equation 3 .

MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM REGISTERS
The TMP400 stores the minimum and maximum
temperatures measured since power-on, chip-reset,
or minimum and maximum register reset for both the
local and remote channels. The Local Temperature
Minimum Register may be read by reading the high
byte from pointer address 30h and the low byte from
pointer address 31h. The Local Temperature
Minimum Register may also be read by using a
two-byte read command from pointer address 30h.
The Local Temperature Minimum Register is reset at
power-on, by executing the chip-reset command, or
by writing any value to any of pointer addresses 30h
through 37h. The reset value for these registers is
7Fh/F0h.
for these registers is 80h/00h.
The Remote Temperature Minimum Register may be
read by reading the high byte from pointer address
34h and the low byte from pointer address 35h. The
Remote Temperature Minimum Register may also be
read by using a two-byte read command from pointer
address 34h. The Remote Temperature Minimum
Register is reset at power-on by executing the chip
reset command, or by writing any value to any of
pointer addresses 30h through 37h. The reset value
for these registers is 7Fh/F0h.
The Remote Temperature Maximum Register may be
read by reading the high byte from pointer address
36h and the low byte from pointer address 37h. The
Remote Temperature Maximum Register may also be
read by using a two-byte read command from pointer
address 36h. The Remote Temperature Maximum
Register is reset at power-on by executing the chip
reset command, or by writing any value to any of
pointer addresses 30h through 37h. The reset value
for these registers is 80h/00h.
SOFTWARE RESET
The TMP400 may be reset by writing any value to
Pointer Register FCh. A reset restores the power-on
reset state to all of the TMP400 registers as well as
aborts any conversion in process and clears the
ALERT pin.
The TMP400 also supports reset via the Two-Wire
general call address (00000000). The TMP400
acknowledges the general call address and responds
to the second byte. If the second byte is 00000110,
the TMP400 latches the status of the address pins
and executes a software reset. A 500 µ s time delay
must be observed after a general-call command. The
TMP400 takes no action in response to other values
in the second byte.

Function section for a description of this feature.
BUS OVERVIEW
The TMP400 is SMBus interface-compatible. In
SMBus protocol, the device that initiates the transfer
is called a master , and the devices controlled by the
master are slaves . The bus must be controlled by a
master device that generates the serial clock (SCL),
controls the bus access, and generates the START
and STOP conditions.
To address a specific device, a START condition is
initiated. START is indicated by pulling the data line
(SDA) from a high to low logic level while SCL is
high. All slaves on the bus shift in the slave address
byte, with the last bit indicating whether a read or
write operation is intended. During the ninth clock
pulse, the slave being addressed responds to the
master by generating an Acknowledge and pulling
SDA low.
Data transfer is then initiated and sent over eight
clock pulses followed by an Acknowledge bit. During
data transfer, SDA must remain stable while SCL is
high, because any change in SDA while SCL is high
is interpreted as a control signal.
Once all data have been transferred, the master
generates a STOP condition. STOP is indicated by
pulling SDA from low to high, while SCL is high.
SERIAL BUS ADDRESS
To communicate with the TMP400, the master must
first address slave devices via a slave address byte.
The slave address byte consists of seven address
bits, and a direction bit indicating the intent of
executing a read or write operation. The address of
the TMP400 is set by the A0 and A1 pins. TMP400
addresses and corresponding A0 and A1
configurations are shown in Table 9 .

READ/WRITE OPERATIONS
Accessing a particular register on the TMP400 is
accomplished by writing the appropriate value to the
Pointer Register. The value for the Pointer Register is
the first byte transferred after the slave address byte
with the R/ W bit low. Every write operation to the
TMP400 requires a value for the Pointer Register
(see Figure 14 ).
When reading from the TMP400, the last value stored
in the Pointer Register by a write operation is used to
determine which register is read by a read operation.
To change the register pointer for a read operation, a
new value must be written to the Pointer Register.
This transaction is accomplished by issuing a slave
address byte with the R/ W bit low, followed by the
Pointer Register byte. No additional data are
required. The master can then generate a START
condition and send the slave address byte with the
R/ W bit high to initiate the read command. See
Figure 16 for details of this sequence. If repeated

the TMP400. Bus definitions are given below.
Parameters for Figure 13 are defined in Table 10 .
Bus Idle: Both SDA and SCL lines remain high.
Start Data Transfer: A change in the state of the
SDA line, from high to low, while the SCL line is high,
defines a START condition. Each data transfer
initiates with a START condition.
Data Transfer: The number of data bytes transferred
between a START and a STOP condition is not
limited and is determined by the master device. The
receiver acknowledges the transfer of data.
Acknowledge: Each receiving device, when
addressed, is obliged to generate an Acknowledge
bit. A device that acknowledges must pull down the
SDA line during the Acknowledge clock pulse in such
a way that the SDA line is stable low during the high
period of the Acknowledge clock pulse. Setup and
hold times must be taken into account. On a master
receive, data transfer termination can be signaled by
the master generating a Not-Acknowledge on the last
byte that has been transmitted by the slave.

output filter on SDA to operate in Hs-mode, allowing
transfers at up to 3.4MHz. After the Hs-mode master
code has been issued, the master transmits a
Two-Wire slave address to initiate a data transfer
operation. The bus continues to operate in Hs-mode
until a STOP condition occurs on the bus. Upon
receiving the STOP condition, the TMP400 switches
the input and output filter back to fast-mode
operation.
TIMEOUT FUNCTION
When bit 7 of the Consecutive Alert Register is set
high, the TMP400 timeout function is enabled. The
TMP400 resets the serial interface if either SCL or
SDA are held low for 30ms (typical) between a
START and STOP condition. If the TMP400 is
holding the bus low, it releases the bus and waits for
a START condition. To avoid activating the timeout
function, it is necessary to maintain a communication
speed of at least 1kHz for the SCL operating
frequency. The default state of the timeout function is
enabled (bit 7 = high).
The ALERT pin (pin 11) asserts low when either the
measured local or remote temperature violates the
range limit set by the corresponding Local/Remote
Temperature High/Low Limit Registers. This alert
function can be configured to assert only if the range
is violated a specified number of consecutive times
(1, 2, 3, or 4). The consecutive violation limit is set in
the Consecutive Alert Register. False alerts that
occur as a result of environmental noise can be
prevented by requiring consecutive faults. ALERT
also asserts low if the remote temperature sensor is
open-circuit. When the MASK function is enabled
(Configuration Register: bit 7 = 1), ALERT is disabled
(that is, masked). ALERT resets when the master
reads the device address, as long as the condition
that caused the alert no longer persists, and the
Status Register has been reset.
STBY (PIN 15)
The TMP400 features a standby pin ( STBY) that,
when pulled low, disables the device. During normal
operation STBY should be tied high (V+). When
STBY is pulled low, the TMP400 is immediately
disabled. If the TMP400 receives a One-Shot
command when STBY is pulled low, the command is
ignored and the TMP400 continues to be disabled
until STBY is pulled high.

the temperature high limit settings or falling below
one of the temperature low limit settings caused the
alert condition. This bit is high if the temperature is
greater than or equal to one of the temperature high
limit settings; this bit is low if the temperature is less
than one of the temperature low limit settings. See
Figure 17 for details of this sequence.
If multiple devices on the bus respond to the SMBus
Alert command, arbitration during the slave address
portion of the SMBus Alert command determines
which device will clear its alert status. If the TMP400
wins the arbitration, its ALERT pin becomes inactive
at the completion of the SMBus Alert command. If the
TMP400 loses the arbitration, the ALERT pin remains
active.
SHUTDOWN MODE (SD)
The TMP400 Shutdown Mode allows the user to save
maximum power by shutting down all device circuitry
other than the serial interface, reducing current
consumption to typically less than 3 µ A; see typical
characteristic curve Shutdown Quiescent Current vs
Supply Voltage (Figure 10 ). Shutdown Mode is
enabled when the SD bit of the Configuration
Register is high; the device shuts down once the
current conversion is completed. When SD is low, the
device maintains a continuous conversion state.
GENERAL CALL RESET
The TMP400 supports reset via the Two-Wire
General Call address 00h (0000 0000b). The
TMP400 acknowledges the General Call address and
responds to the second byte. If the second byte is
06h (0000 0110b), the TMP400 executes a software
reset, while latching the status of the address pins.
This software reset restores the power-on reset state
to all TMP400 registers, aborts any conversion in
progress, and clears the ALERT pin. If the second
byte is 04h ( 0000 0100b ), the TMP400 latches the
status of the address pins, but does not reset. The
TMP400 takes no action in response to other values
in the second byte. A 500 µ s time delay must be taken
after a general call command.
IDENTIFICATION REGISTERS
The TMP400 allows for the Two-Wire bus controller
to query the device for manufacturer and device IDs
to allow for software identification of the device at the
particular Two-Wire bus address. The manufacturer
ID is obtained by reading from pointer address FEh.
The device ID is obtained by reading from pointer
address FFh. The TMP400 returns 55h for the
manufacturer code and 01h for the device ID. These
registers are read-only.
SENSOR FAULT
The TMP400 senses a fault at the D+ input resulting
from incorrect diode connection or an open circuit.
The detection circuitry consists of a voltage
comparator that trips when the voltage at D+ exceeds
(V+) – 0.6V (typical). The comparator output is
continuously checked during a conversion. If a fault is
detected, the result reads 7FFh (0111 1111 1111b)
and is used for the temperature measurement result;
the OPEN bit (Status Register, bit 2) is set high, and,
if the alert function is enabled, ALERT asserts low.
When not using the remote sensor with the TMP400,
the D+ and D – inputs must be connected together to
prevent meaningless fault warnings.
FILTERING
Remote junction temperature sensors are usually
implemented in a noisy environment. Noise is most
often created by fast digital signals, and it can corrupt
measurements. The TMP400 has a built-in 65kHz
filter on the inputs of D+ and D – to minimize the
effects of noise. However, a bypass capacitor placed
differentially across the inputs of the remote
temperature sensor is recommended to make the
application more robust against unwanted coupled
signals. The value of the capacitor should be
between 100pF and 1nF. Some applications attain
better overall accuracy with additional series
resistance; however, this increased accuracy is
setup-specific. When series resistance is added, the
value should not be greater than 3k Ω and resistance
correction must be enabled (RC = 1).

values are application specific. Resistance correction
must be enabled to avoid offset correction.
REMOTE SENSING
The TMP400 is designed to be used with either
discrete transistors or substrate transistors built into
processor chips and ASICs. Either NPN or PNP
transistors can be used, as long as the base-emitter
junction is used as the remote temperature sense.
Either a transistor or diode connection can also be
used; see Figure 11 .
Errors in remote temperature sensor readings are
generally the consequence of the ideality factor and
current excitation used by the TMP400 versus the
manufacturer-specified operating current for a given
transistor. Some manufacturers specify a high-level
and low-level current for the temperature-sensing
substrate transistors. The TMP400 uses 6 µ A for I
and 120 µ A for I
. The TMP400 allows for different
HIGH
n -factor values; see the N-Factor Correction Register
section.
The ideality factor ( n ) is a measured characteristic of
a remote temperature sensor diode as compared to
an ideal diode. The ideality factor for the TMP400 is
trimmed to be 1.008. For transistors whose ideality
factor does not match the TMP400, Equation 4 can
be used to calculate the temperature error. Note that
for the equation to be used correctly, actual
temperature ( ° C) must be converted to Kelvin ( ° K).

If a discrete transistor is used as the remote

MEASUREMENT ACCURACY AND THERMAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The temperature measurement accuracy of the
TMP400 depends on the remote and/or local
temperature sensor being at the same temperature
as the system point being monitored. Clearly, if the
temperature sensor is not in good thermal contact
with the part of the system being monitored, then
there will be a delay in the response of the sensor to
a temperature change in the system. For remote
temperature sensing applications using a substrate
transistor (or a small, SOT23 transistor) placed close
to the device being monitored, this delay is usually
not a concern.
The local temperature sensor inside the TMP400
monitors the ambient air around the device. The
thermal time constant for the TMP400 is
approximately two seconds. This constant implies
that if the ambient air changes quickly by 100 ° C, it
would take the TMP400 about 10 seconds (that is,
five thermal time constants) to settle to within 1 ° C of
the final value. In most applications, the TMP400
package is in electrical (and therefore, thermal)
contact with the printed circuit board (PCB), as well
as subjected to forced airflow. The accuracy of the
accurately the PCB and forced airflow temperatures
represent the temperature that the TMP400 is
measuring. Additionally, the internal power dissipation
of the TMP400 can cause the temperature to rise
above the ambient or PCB temperature. The internal
power dissipated as a result of exciting the remote
temperature sensor is negligible because of the small
currents used. For a 5.5V supply and maximum
conversion rate of eight conversions per second, the
TMP400 dissipates 1.82mW (PD

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
Remote temperature sensing on the TMP400
measures very small voltages using very low
currents; therefore, noise at the IC inputs must be
minimized. Most applications using the TMP400 will
have high digital content, with several clocks and
logic level transitions creating a noisy environment.
Layout should adhere to the following guidelines:
1. Place the TMP400 as close to the remote
junction sensor as possible.
2. Route the D+ and D – traces next to each other
and shield them from adjacent signals through
the use of ground guard traces, as shown in
Figure 19 . If a multilayer PCB is used, bury these
traces between ground or V
them from extrinsic noise sources. 5 mil
(0.127mm) PCB traces are recommended.
3. Minimize additional thermocouple junctions
caused by copper-to-solder connections. If these
junctions are used, make the same number and
approximate locations of copper-to-solder
connections in both the D+ and D – connections
to cancel any thermocouple effects.
4. Use a 0.1 µ F local bypass capacitor directly
between the V+ and GND of the TMP400, as
shown in Figure 20 . Minimize filter capacitance
between D+ and D – to 1000pF or less for
optimum measurement performance. This
capacitance includes any cable capacitance
between the remote temperature sensor and
TMP400.
5. If the connection between the remote
temperature sensor and the TMP400 is less than
8 inches (203.2mm), use a twisted-wire pair
connection. Beyond 8 inches, use a twisted,
shielded pair with the shield grounded as close to
the TMP400 as possible. Leave the remote
sensor connection end of the shield wire open to
avoid ground loops and 60Hz pickup.
