MIC280
Precision IttyBitty™ Thermal Supervisor
General Description
The MIC280 is a digital thermal supervisor capable of
measuring its own internal temperature and that of a
remote PN junction. The remote junction may be an
inexpensive commodity transistor—e.g., 2N3906—or an
embedded thermal diode such as those found in Intel
®
®
Pentium II/III/IV CPUs, AMD Athlon CPUs, and Xilinx
®
®
Virtex FPGAs. A 2-wire SMBus 2.0-compatible serial
interface is provided for host communication. Remote
temperature is measured with ±1°C accuracy and 9-bit to
12-bit resolution (programmable). Independent high, low,
and overtemperature thresholds are provided for each
zone.
The advanced integrating A/D converter and analog front-
end reduce errors due to noise for maximum accuracy and
minimum guardbanding. The interrupt output signals
temperature events to the host, including data-ready and
diode faults. Critical device settings can be locked to
prevent changes and ensure failsafe operation. The clock,
data, and interrupt pins are 5V-tolerant regardless of the
value of V
DD
. They will not clamp the bus lines low even if
the device is powered down. Superior accuracy, failsafe
operation, and small size make the MIC280 an excellent
choice for the most demanding thermal management
applications.

Micrel’s web site at:

Notes:
2. Exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device.
3. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating ratings. Final test on outgoing product is performed at T
A
= 25°C.
4. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions are recommended. Human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF.
5. Specification for packaged product only.
6. Current into the /INT or DATA pins will result in self heating of the device. Sink current should be minimized for best accuracy.
7. Guaranteed by design over the operating temperature range. Not 100% production tested.
8. t

is the temperature of the remote diode junction. Testing is performed using a single unit of one of the transistors listed in Table 8.

CONV
(local) + t
CONV
(remote). Following the acquisition of either remote or local temperature data, the limit comparisons for that zone are
performed and the device status updated. Status bits will be set and /INT driven active, if applicable.
11. The interrupt reset propagation delay is dominated by the capacitance on the bus.
12. Accuracy specification does not include quantization noise, which may be up to ±1/2 LSB.
13. Tested at 10-bit resolution.
