Multichannel Remote/Local
Temperature Sensors
________________General Description
The MAX1668/MAX1805/MAX1989 are precise multi-
channel digital thermometers that report the tempera-
ture of all remote sensors and their own packages. The
remote sensors are diode-connected transistors—typi-
cally low-cost, easily mounted 2N3904 NPN types—that
replace conventional thermistors or thermocouples.
Remote accuracy is ±3°C for multiple transistor manu-
facturers, with no calibration needed. The remote chan-
nels can also measure the die temperature of other ICs,
such as microprocessors, that contain an on-chip,
diode-connected transistor.
The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard system
management bus (SMBus™) write byte, read byte, send
byte, and receive byte commands to program the alarm
thresholds and to read temperature data. The data for-
mat is 7 bits plus sign, with each bit corresponding to
1°C, in two’s-complement format.
The MAX1668/MAX1805/MAX1989 are available in
small, 16-pin QSOP surface-mount packages. The
MAX1989 is also available in a 16-pin TSSOP.

Note 1:
Guaranteed by design, but not production tested.
Note 2:
Quantization error is not included in specifications for temperature accuracy. For example, if the MAX1668/MAX1805/
MAX1989 device temperature is exactly +66.7°C, the ADC may report +66°C, +67°C, or +68°C (due to the quantization
error plus the +0.5°C offset used for rounding up) and still be within the guaranteed ±1°C error limits for the +60°C to
+100°C temperature range. See Table 2.
Note 3:
A remote diode is any diode-connected transistor from Table 1. T
R
is the junction temperature of the remote diode. See the
Remote-Diode Selection
section for remote-diode forward-voltage requirements.
Note 4:
The SMBus logic block is a static design that works with clock frequencies down to DC. While slow operation is possible, it
violates the 10kHz minimum clock frequency and SMBus specifications, and can monopolize the bus.
Note 5:
Note that a transition must internally provide at least a hold time in order to bridge the undefined region (300ns max) of
SMBCLK’s falling edge t
HD:DAT.
Note 6:
Specifications from -55°C to +125°C are guaranteed by design, not production tested.
