Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions. Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to GND, unless otherwise noted. Note 3: When the input voltage (VIN) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (VIN < GND or VIN > V+), the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA. Parasitic components and/or ESD protection circuitry are shown in the table below, for the LM64's pins, by an "X" when it exists.

Note 10: Local temperature accuracy does not include the effects of self-heating. The rise in temperature due to self-heating is the product of the internal power dissipation of the LM64 and the thermal resistance. See (Note 5) for the thermal resistance to be used in the self-heating calculation. Note 11: The output rise time is measured from (VIL max - 0.15 V) to (VIH min + 0.15 V). Note 12: The output fall time is measured from (VIH min + 0.15 V) to (VIL min - 0.15 V). Note 13: Holding the SMBData and/or SMBCLK lines Low for a time interval greater than tTIMEOUT will reset the LM64's SMBus state machine, therefore setting SMBDAT and SMBCLK pins to a high impedance state. www.national.com 8 LM64 1.0 Functional Description The LM64 Remote Diode Temperature Sensor with Integrated Fan Control incorporates a VBE-based temperature sensor using a Local or Remote diode and a 10-bit plus sign ADC (Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converter). The pulse-width modulated (PWM) open-drain output, with a pull-up resistor, can drive a switching transistor to modulate the fan. The LM64 can measure the fan speed on the pulses from the fan's open-collector tachometer output, pulled up by a 1.5 k resistor to VDD. The ALERT open-drain output will be pulled low under certain conditions descibed in the sections below. The T_Crit open-drain output will be pulled low when the T_Crit setpoint temperature limit is exceeded. This behaves as a typical comparator function without any latching. The LM64's two-wire interface is compatible with the SMBus Specification 2.0 . For more information the reader is directed to www.smbus.org. In the LM64, digital comparators are used to compare the measured Local Temperature (LT) to the Local High Setpoint user-programmable temperature limit register. The measured Remote Temperature (RT) is digitally compared to the Remote High Setpoint (RHS), the Remote Low Setpoint (RLS), and the Remote T_CRIT Setpoint (RCS) userprogrammable temperature limits. An ALERT output will occur when the measured temperature is: (1) higher than either the High Setpoint or the T_CRIT Setpoint, or (2) lower than the Low Setpoint. The ALERT Mask register allows the user to prevent the generation of these ALERT outputs. The temperature hysteresis is set by the value placed in the Hysteresis Register (TH). 20065506 FIGURE 3. Supply Current vs Conversion Rate 1.2 THE ALERT OUTPUT When the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration register is written as zero the ALERT interrupts are enabled. The LM64's ALERT pin is versatile and can produce three different methods of use to best serve the system designer: (1) as a temperature comparator (2) as a temperature-based interrupt flag, and (3) 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 LM64. The remote temperature (RT) reading is associated with a T_CRIT Setpoint Register, and both local and remote temperature (LT and RT) readings are associated with a HIGH setpoint register (LHS and RHS). The RT is also associated with a LOW setpoint register (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 ALERT Status Register is set. If the ALERT mask bit is low, any bit set in the ALERT Status Register, with the exception of Busy or Open, will cause the ALERT output to be pulled low. Any temperature conversion that is out of the limits defined in the temperature setpoint registers will trigger an ALERT. Additionally, the ALERT Mask Bit must be cleared to trigger an ALERT in all modes. The three different ALERT modes will be discussed in the following sections. The LM64 may be placed in a low power Standby mode by setting the Standby bit found in the Configuration Register. In the Standby mode continuous conversions are stopped. In Standby mode the user may choose to allow the PWM output signal to continue, or not, by programming the PWM Disable in Standby bit in the Configuration Register. 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 Remote Temperature Offset (RTO) Registers: High Byte and Low Byte (RTOHB and RTOLB) may be used to correct the temperature readings by adding or subtracting a fixed value based on a different non-ideality factor of the thermal diode if different from the graphics processor thermal diode. See Section 4.1 Thermal Diode Non-Ideality. 1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE The LM64 takes approximately 31.25 ms to convert the Local Temperature (LT), Remote Temperature (RT), and to update all of its registers. The Conversion Rate may be modified using the Conversion Rate Register. When the conversion rate is modified a delay is inserted between conversions, the actual conversion time remains at 31.25 ms. Different Conversion Rates will cause the LM64 to draw different amounts of supply current as shown in Figure 3. 1.2.1 ALERT Output as a Temperature Comparator When the LM64 is used in a system in which does not require temperature-based interrupts, the ALERT output could be used as a temperature comparator. In this mode, once the condition that triggered the ALERT to go low is no longer present, the ALERT is negated (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, the Comparator Mode bit in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register must be asserted. This is not the power-on default state. 9 www.national.com LM64 1.0 Functional Description (Continued) 20065508 FIGURE 5. ALERT Output as an Interrupt Temperature Response Diagram 20065507 FIGURE 4. ALERT Output as Temperature Comparator Response Diagram 1.2.3 ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT An SMBus alert line is created when the ALERT output is connected to: (1) one or more ALERT outputs of other SMBus compatible devices, and (2) to a master. Under this implementation, the LM64'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 determining which part generated an interrupt and to service that interrupt. The SMBus alert line is connected to the open-drain ports of all devices on the bus, thereby AND'ing them together. The ARA method allows the SMBus master, with one command, to identify which part is pulling the SMBus alert line LOW. It also prevents the part from pulling the line 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: (1) send their address to the master and (2) release the SMBus alert line after acknowledgement of their address. The SMBus Specifications 1.1 and 2.0 state that in response to and ARA (Alert Response Address) "after acknowledging the slave address the device must disengage its ALERT pulldown". Furthermore, "if the host still sees ALERT low when the message transfer is complete, it knows to read the ARA again." This SMBus "disengaging ALERT requirement prevents locking up the SMBus alert line. Competitive parts may address the "disengaging of ALERT" differently than the LM64 or not at all. SMBus systems that implement the ARA protocol as suggested for the LM64 will be fully compatible with all competitive parts. The LM64 fulfills "disengaging of ALERT" by setting the ALERT Mask Bit in the Configuration Register after 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 ALERT Status Register, 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 1.2.2 ALERT Output as an Interrupt The LM64'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 desirable for the interrupt flag to repeatedly trigger during or before the interrupt service routine has been completed. Under this method of operation, during the read of the ALERT Status Register the LM64 will set the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register if any bit in the ALERT Status Register is set, with the exception of Busy and Open. This prevents further ALERT triggering until the master has reset the ALERT Mask bit, at the end of the interrupt service routine. The ALERT 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, the Comparator Mode bit in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register 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 an interrupt flag: 1. Master senses ALERT low. 2. Master reads the LM64 ALERT Status Register to determine what caused the ALERT. 3. LM64 clears ALERT Status Register, resets the ALERT HIGH and sets the ALERT Mask bit 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 bit in the Configuration Register. www.national.com 10 (Continued) 2. Master sends a START followed by the Alert Response Address (ARA) with a Read Command. 3. 4. Alerting Device(s) send ACK. Alerting Device(s) send their address. While transmitting their address, alerting devices sense whether their address has been transmitted correctly. (The LM64 will reset its ALERT output and set the ALERT Mask bit once its complete address has been transmitted successfully.) 5. 6. Master/slave NoACK Master sends STOP 7. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to be triggered. The ALERT Status Register is read and fan started, setpoints adjusted, etc. LM64 1.0 Functional Description 1.3 SMBus INTERFACE Since the LM64 operates as a slave on the SMBus, the SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBDAT line is bidirectional. The LM64 never drives the SMBCLK line and it does not support clock stretching. The LM64 has two hardware-selectable 7-bit slave addresses. The user may input a logical High or Low on the A0 Address pin to select one of the two pre-programmed SMBus slave addresses. The options are as follows: 8. Master resets the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register. The ARA, 000 1100, is a general call address. No device should ever be assigned to this address. A0 Pin SMBus Address 0x[Hex] 0 1 SMBus Slave Address Bits A6 A5 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0 18 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 4E 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1.4 POWER-ON RESET (POR) DEFAULT STATES For information on the POR default states see Section 2.2 LM64 Register Map in Functional Order. The ALERT Configuration bit in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register must be set low in order for the LM64 to respond to the ARA command. The ALERT output can be disabled by setting the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register. The power-on default is to have the ALERT Mask bit and the ALERT Configuration bit low. 20065509 FIGURE 6. ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT Temperature Response Diagram 11 www.national.com LM64 1.0 Functional Description Remote temperature data is represented by an 11-bit, two's complement word with a Least Significant Bit (LSB) equal to 0.125C. The data format is a left justified 16-bit word available in two 8-bit registers. Some examples of temperature conversions are shown below. (Continued) 1.5 TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT Temperature data can only be read from the Local and Remote Temperature registers. The High, Low and T_CRIT setpoint registers are Read/Write.

If the D+ pin is detected to be shorted to VDD, or open: (1) the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register is loaded with 127C, (2) the Remote Temperature Low Byte (RTLB) register is loaded with 0, and (3) the OPEN bit (D2) in the status register is set. Therefore, if the Remote T_CRIT setpoint register (RCS): (1) is set to a value less than +127C and (2) the ALERT Mask is disabled, then the ALERT output pin will be pulled low. If the Remote High Setpoint High Byte (RHSHB) is set to a value less than +127C and (2) the ALERT Mask is disabled, then the ALERT and T_Crit outputs will be pulled low. The OPEN bit by itself will not trigger an ALERT. If the D+ pin is shorted to either ground or D-, then the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register is loaded with -128C (1000 0000) and the OPEN bit in the ALERT Status Register will not be set. A temperature reading of -128C indicates that D+ is shorted to either ground or D-. If the value in the Remote Low Setpoint High Byte (RLSHB) Register is more than -128C and the ALERT Mask is Disabled, ALERT will be pulled low.

Read Only 2. Write Only 3. Read/Write same address 4. Read/Write different address A Write to the LM64 is comprised of an address byte and a command byte. A write to any register requires one data byte. Reading the LM64 Registers can take place after the requisite register setup sequence takes place. See Section 2.1.1 LM64 Required Initial Fan Control Register Sequence. Note 14: Depends on the fan drive circuitry connected to this pin.

At the end of a read, the LM64 can accept either Acknowledge or No-Acknowledge from the Master. Note that the NoAcknowledge is typically used as a signal for the slave indicating that the Master has read its last byte. 1.9 DIGITAL FILTER The LM64 incorporates a user-configured digital filter to suppress erroneous Remote Temperature readings due to noise. The filter is accessed in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register. The filter can be set according to the following table. Level 2 is maximum filtering. 20065511 Digital Filter Selection Table D2 D1 Filter 0 0 No Filter 0 1 Level 1 1 0 Level 1 1 1 Level 2 FIGURE 8.

Step Response of the Digital Filter 13 www.national.com LM64 1.0 Functional Description (Continued) 1.11 ONE-SHOT REGISTER The One-Shot Register is used to initiate a single conversion and comparison cycle when the device is in standby mode, after which the data returns to standby. This is not a data register. A write operation causes the one-shot conversion. The data written to this address is irrelevant and is not stored. A zero will always be read from this register. 1.10 FAULT QUEUE The LM64 incorporates a Fault Queue to suppress erroneous ALERT triggering . The Fault Queue prevents false triggering by requiring three consecutive out-of-limit HIGH, LOW, or T_CRIT temperature readings. See Figure 10. The Fault Queue defaults to OFF upon power-up and may be activated by setting the RDTS Fault Queue bit in the Configuration Register to a 1. 1.12 SERIAL INTERFACE RESET In the event that the SMBus Master is reset while the LM64 is transmitting on the SMBDAT line, the LM64 must be returned to a known state in the communication protocol. This may be done in one of two ways: 1. When SMBDAT is Low, the LM64 SMBus state machine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBData or SMBCLK are held Low for more than 35 ms (tTIMEOUT). All devices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK or SMBDAT lines are held Low for 25 ms - 35 ms. Therefore, to insure a timeout of all devices on the bus, either the SMBCLK or the SMBData line must be held Low for at least 35 ms. 2. With both SMBDAT and SMBCLK High, the master can initiate an SMBus start condition with a High to Low transition on the SMBDAT line. The LM64 will respond properly to an SMBus start condition at any point during the communication. After the start the LM64 will expect an SMBus Address address byte. 20065513 FIGURE 10.

Some address locations have been left blank to maintain compatibility with LM86. Addresses in parenthesis are mirrors of named address for backwards compatibility with some older software. Reading or writing either address will access the same 8-bit register. 2.3.1 LM64 Required Initial Fan Control Register Sequence Important! The BIOS must follow the sequence below to configure the following Fan Registers for the LM64 before using any of the Fan or Tachometer or PWM registers: Step [Register]HEX and Setup Instructions 1 [4A] Write bits 0 and 1; 3 and 4. This includes tach settings if used, PWM internal clock select (1.4 kHz or 360 kHz) and PWM Output Polarity. 2 [4B] Write bits 0 through 5 to program the spin-up settings. 3 [4D] Write bits 0 through 4 to set the frequency settings. This works with the PWM internal clock select. 4 Choose, then write, only one of the following: A. [4F-5F] the Lookup Table, or B. [4C] the PWM value bits 0 through 5. 5 If Step 4A, Lookup Table, was chosen and written then write [4A] bit 5 = 0. All other registers can be written at any time after the above sequence. 17 www.national.com LM64 2.0 LM64 Registers (Continued) 2.4 LM64 REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS IN FUNCTIONAL ORDER Fan Control Registers Address Hex Read/ Write Bits POR Value Name Description 4AHEX PWM AND RPM REGISTER 7:6 4A R/W 00 These bits are unused and always set to 0. 5 1 0: the PWM Value (register 4C) and the Lookup Table (50-5F) are read-only. The PWM value (0 to 100%) is determined by the current remote diode temperature and the Lookup Table, and can be read from the PWM value register. 1: the PWM value (register 4C) and the Lookup Table (Register 50-5F) are read/write enabled. Writing the PWM Value register will set the PWM output. This is also the state during which the Lookup Table can be written. 4 0 PWM Output Polarity 3 0 PWM Clock Select if 0, the master PWM clock is 360 kHz if 1, the master PWM clock is 1.4 kHz. 2 0 [Reserved] Always write 0 to this bit. Tachometer Mode 00: Traditional tach input monitor, false readings when under minimum detectable RPM. 01: Traditional tach input monitor, FFFF reading when under minimum detectable RPM. 10: Most accurate readings, FFFF reading when under minimum detectable RPM. 11: Least effort on programmed PWM of fan, FFFF reading when under minimum detectable RPM. Note: If the PWM Clock is 360 kHz, mode 00 is used regardless of the setting of these two bits. 1:0 00 PWM Program 0: the PWM output pin will be 0 V for fan OFF and open for fan ON. 1: the PWM output pin will be open for fan OFF and 0 V for fan ON. 4BHEX FAN SPIN-UP CONFIGURATION REGISTER 7:6 5 4B R/W 4:3 2:0 www.national.com 0 These bits are unused and always set to 0 1 If 0, the fan spin-up uses the duty cycle and spin-up time, bits 0-4. If 1, the LM64 sets the PWM output to 100% until the spin-up times out (per bits 0-2) or the minimum desired RPM has been reached (per the Tachometer Setpoint setting) using the tachometer input, whichever happens first. This bit overrides the PWM Spin-Up Duty Cycle register (bits 4:3) -- PWM output is always 100%. If PWM Spin-Up Time (bits 2:0) = 000, the Spin-Up cycle is bypassed, regardless of the state of this bit. 11 111 Fast Tachometer Spin-Up PWM Spin-Up Duty Cycle PWM Spin-Up Time 00: Spin-Up cycle bypassed (no Spin-Up), unless Fast Tachometer Terminated Spin-Up (bit 5) is set. 01: 50% 10: 75%-81% Depends on PWM Frequency.

Note the PWM Value for 100% Duty Cycle. Find the Duty Cycle by taking the PWM Value of Register 4C and computing: Example: For a PWM Frequency of 24, a PWM Value at 100% = 48 and PWM Value actual = 28, then the Duty Cycle is (28/48) x 100% = 58.3%. 25 www.national.com LM64 3.0 Application Notes IC's temperature, independent of the LM64's temperature. The LM64 has been optimized for use with a MMBT3904 diode-connected transistor. 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. (Continued) 3.2 USE OF THE LOOKUP TABLE FOR NON-LINEAR PWM VALUES VS TEMPERATURE The Lookup Table, Registers 50 through 5F, can be used to create a non-linear PWM vs Temperature curve that could be used to reduce the acoustic noise from processor fan due to linear or step transfer functions. An example is given below: EXAMPLE: Most silicon diodes do not lend themselves well to this application. It is recommended that a diode-connected MMBT3904 transistor be used. The base of the transistor is connected to the collector and becomes the anode. The emitter is the cathode. In a particular system it was found that the best acoustic fan noise performance was found to occur when the PWM vs Temperature transfer function curve was parabolic in shape. From 25C to 105C the fan is to go from 20% to 100%. Since there are 8 steps to the Lookup Table we will break up the Temperature range into 8 separate temperatures. For the 80C over 8-steps = 10C per step. This takes care of the x-axis. For the PWM Value, we first select the PWM Frequency. In this example we will make the PWM Frequency (Register 4C) 20. 3.3.1 Diode Non_Ideality When a transistor is connected to a diode the following relationship holds for Vbe, T, and IF: For 100% Duty Cycle then, the PWM value is 40. For 20% the minimum is 40 x (0.2) = 8. We can then arrange the PWM, Temperature pairs in a parabolic fashion in the form of y = 0.005 * (x -25)2 + 8 Temperature PWM Value Calculated Closest PWM Value 25 8.0 8 35 8.5 9 45 10.0 10 55 12.5 13 65 16.0 16 75 20.5 21 85 26.0 26 95 32.5 33 105 40.0 40 where * * * * k = 1.38x10-23 joules/K (Boltzmann's constant) is the non-ideality factor of the manufacturing process used to make the thermal diode * 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 We can then program the Lookup Table with the temperature and Closest PWM Values required for the curve required in our example. 3.3 NON-IDEALITY FACTOR AND TEMPERATURE ACCURACY The LM64 can be applied to remote diode sensing in the same way as other integrated-circuit temperature sensors. 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 printedcircuit board lands and traces soldered to its pins. This presumes that the ambient air temperature is nearly 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 LM64 die will be an intermediate temperature between the surface and air temperatures. Again, the primary thermal conduction path is through the leads, so the circuit board surface temperature will contribute to the die temperature much more than the air temperature. To measure the temperature external to the die use a remote diode. This diode can be located on the die of the target IC, such as a CPU processor chip, allowing measurement of the www.national.com q = 1.6x10-19 Coulombs (the electron charge) T = Absolute Temperature in Kelvin In the above equation, and Is are dependent upon the process that was used in the fabrication of the particular diode. By forcing two currents with a very controlled ratio (N) and measuring the resulting voltage difference, it is possible to eliminate the Is term. Solving for the forward voltage difference yields the relationship: The non-ideality factor, , is the only other parameter not accounted for and depends on the diode that is used for measurement. Since Vbe is proportional to both and T, the variations in cannot be distinguished from variations in temperature. Since the temperature sensor does not control the non-ideality factor, it will directly add to the inaccuracy of the sensor. 26 revolution fan tachometer, such as the fans supplied with the Pentium 4 boxed processors. The RPM of the fan can be computed from the Tach Count Registers 46HEX and 47HEX. This can best be shown through an example. (Continued) For example, if a processor manufacturer specifies a 0.1% variation in from part to part. As an example, assume that a temperature sensor has an accuracy specification of 1C at room temperature of 25C. The resulting accuracy will be: TACC = 1C + ( 0.1% of 298K) = 1.3C Example: Given: the fan used has a tachometer output with 2 per revolution. Let: Register 46 (LSB) is BFHEX = Decimal (11 x 16) + 15 = 191 and Register 47 (MSB) is 7HEX = Decimal (7 x 256) = 1792. The additional inaccuracy in the temperature measurement caused by , can be eliminated if each temperature sensor is calibrated with the remote diode that it will be paired with. Refer to the processor datasheet for the non-ideality factor. 3.3.2 Compensating for Diode Non-Ideality 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 non-ideality of a particular processor type. The LM64 is calibrated for a MMBT3904 diode-connected transistor. The total Tach Count, in decimal, is 191 + 1792 = 1983. The RPM is computed using the formula When a temperature sensor, calibrated for a specific type of processor is used with a different processor type or a given processor type has a non-ideality that strays form the typical value, errors are introduced. Temperature errors associated with non-ideality may be introduced in a specific temperature range of concern through the use of the Temperature Offset Registers 11HEX and 12HEX. The user is encouraged to send an e-mail to hardware.monitor.team@nsc.com to further request information on our recommended setting of the offset register for different processor types. where f = 1 for 2 pulses/rev fan tachometer output; f = 2 for 1 pulse/rev fan tachometer output, and f = 2 / 3 for 3 pulses/rev fan tachometer output For our example 3.4 COMPUTING RPM OF THE FAN FROM THE TACH COUNT The Tach Count Registers 46HEX and 47HEX count the number of periods of the 90 kHz tachometer clock in the LM64 for the tachometer input from the fan assuming a 2 pulse per 27 www.national.com LM64 3.0 Application Notes LM64 3.0 Application Notes 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. (Continued) 3.5 PCB LAYOUT FOR MINIMIZING NOISE 4. Avoid routing diode traces in close proximity to power supply switching or filtering inductors. 5. Avoid running diode traces close to or parallel to high speed digital and bus lines. Diode traces should be kept at least 2 cm apart from the high speed digital traces. 6. 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. 7. The ideal place to connect the LM64's GND pin is as close as possible to the Processor's GND associated with the sense diode. 8. Leakage current between D+ and GND should be kept to a minimum. One nano-ampere of leakage can cause as much as 1C of error in the diode temperature reading. Keeping the printed circuit board as clean as possible will minimize leakage current. 20065521 FIGURE 11. Ideal Diode Trace Layout 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 LM64 can cause temperature conversion errors. Keep in mind that the signal level the LM64 is trying to measure is in microvolts. The following guidelines should be followed: 1. Place a 0.1 F power supply bypass capacitor as close as possible to the VDD pin and the recommended 2.2 nF capacitor as close as possible to the LM64's D+ and D- pins. Make sure the traces to the 2.2 nF capacitor are matched. 2. Ideally, the LM64 should be placed within 10 cm of the Processor diode pins with the traces being as straight, short and identical as possible. Trace resistance of 1 can cause as much as 1C 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. 3. Diode traces should be surrounded by a GND guard ring to either side, above and below if possible. This GND www.national.com Noise coupling into the digital lines greater than 400 mVp-p (typical hysteresis) and undershoot less than 500 mV below GND, may prevent successful SMBus communication with the LM64. SMBus no acknowledge is the most common symptom, causing unnecessary traffic on the bus. Although the SMBus maximum frequency of communication is rather low (100 kHz 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 3 dB corner frequency of about 40 MHz is included on the LM64'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. 28 inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 24-Lead Leadless Leadframe (LLP) NS Package Number LQA24A LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL'S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL COUNSEL OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
