Product Description
The aSC7511 is a high-precision CMOS temperature
sensor with SMBus compatible serial digital interface,
intended for use in PC thermal management applications.
The aSC7511 can measure temperature of a remote
thermal diode to an accuracy of ±1°C. Internal temperature
can be measured to ±3°C.
Communication of configuration, temperature and alarm
status takes place over the PC standard System
Management Bus (SMBus).
The aSC7511 features thermal alarm functions with a user-
programmable trip and turn-off temperatures. The
THERM
output comparator can be set to control a fan while

Notes:
1. Absolute maximum ratings are limits beyond which
operation may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only; functional operation at or
above these limits is not implied.
2. Human Body Model: 100pF capacitor discharged through
a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin. Machine Model: 200pF
capacitor discharged directly into each pin. Charged
Device Model is per JESD22-C101C.
3. These specifications are guaranteed only for the test
conditions listed.
4. Accuracy (expressed in °C) = Difference between the
aSC7511 reported output temperature and the
temperature being measured.
5. Guaranteed by characterization but not production tested.
6. The accuracy of the aSC7511 is guaranteed when using
the thermal diode of a processor or any thermal diode with
a non-ideality of 1.008 and internal series resistance of
3.52Ω. When using a 2N3904 type transistor as a thermal
diode the error band will be typically shifted depending on
transistor characteristics.
7. The aSC7511 can be read at any time without interrupting
the temperature conversion process.

aSC7511
Basic Operation Overview
The aSC7511 temperature sensing circuitry continuously
monitors two thermal diode base-emitter voltages, one on-
chip, called “local” and one remotely located, connected to
the D+ and D- pins. At regular intervals the aSC7511
converts both analog voltages to digital values, which are
placed into the temperature registers.
The aSC7511 has an SMBus-compatible serial interface
that allows the user to access the data in the temperature
registers at any time. In addition, the serial interface gives
the user easy access to all other aSC7511 registers to
customize operation of the device.
The aSC7511 temperature-to-digital converter has two
temperature formats, 0°C to +127°C binary and extended-
range, -55°C to +150°C, offset-binary. The local sensor
resolution is 8-bits, with an LSB of 1°C. The remote or
remote diode sensor resolution is 10-bits with an LSB of
0.25°C. The temperature range of the local and remote
sensors are controlled by bit 2 of the configuration register,
default value is 0, 0°C to 127°C.
Table 1 gives examples of the relationship between the
output digital data and the measured temperature for the
default range. Table 2 gives examples for the extended
range. All output values are offset by +64°C when in this
mode.
The aSC7511 has a Shutdown Mode that reduces the
operating current to < 20µA. This mode is controlled by
RUN / STOP, bit 6 in the configuration register.
Comparisons to limits and diode open test are suspended
until the next measurement has taken place.

Power-Up Default Conditions
The aSC7511 always powers-up in the following default
state:
• Configuration Register: 00h (i.e.,
ALERT
enabled, Run
Mode,
ALERT
pin selected, normal range)
• Conversion Rate: 16 per second, 08h
• All Temperature and Offset Registers: 00h
• Consecutive
ALERT
: 1 fault (i.e., 01h in the register)
• Local and Remote Low Limit: 0°C
• Local and Remote
THERM
Limit: 85°C
•
THERM
Hysteresis: 10°C
• Register Address Pointer: Undefined, must be set by
first write sequence.
• Normal / Extended Range: Normal
After power-up, these conditions can be reprogrammed via
the serial interface. Refer to the Serial Data Bus Operation
section to for aSC7511 programming instructions.
