General Description
The LM99 is an 11-bit remote diode temperature sensor with
a 2-wire System Management Bus (SMBus) serial interface.
The LM99 accurately measures: (1) its own temperature and
(2) the temperature of a remote diode-connected transistor
such as the 2N3904 or a thermal diode commonly found on
Graphics Processor Units (GPU), Computer Processor Units
(CPU or other ASICs. The LM99 remote diode temperature
sensor shifts the temperature from the remote sensor down
16˚C and operates on that shifted temperature:

1.0 Functional Description
The LM99 temperature sensor incorporates a delta VBE
based temperature sensor using a Local or Remote diode
and a 10-bit plus sign ∆Σ ADC (Delta-Sigma Analog-to-
Digital Converter). The LM99 is compatible with the serial
SMBus version 2.0 two-wire interface. Digital comparators
compare the measured Local Temperature (LT) to the Local
High (LHS), Local Low (LLS) and Local T_CRIT (LCS) user-
programmable temperature limit registers. The measured
Remote Temperature (RT) is digitally compared to the Re-
mote High (RHS), Remote Low (RLS) and Remote T_CRIT
(RCS) user-programmable temperature limit registers. Acti-
vation of the ALERT output indicates that a comparison is
greater than the limit preset in a T_CRIT or HIGH limit
register or less than the limit preset in a LOW limit register.
The T_CRIT_A output responds as a true comparator with
built in hysteresis. The hysteresis is set by the value placed
in the Hysteresis register (TH). Activation of T_CRIT_A oc-
curs when the temperature is above the T_CRIT setpoint.
T_CRIT_A remains activated until the temperature goes be-
low the setpoint calculated by T_CRIT − TH. The hysteresis
register impacts both the remote temperature and local tem-
perature readings.

FIGURE 2. Conversion Rate Effect on Power Supply
Current
The LM99 may be placed in a low power consumption
(Shutdown) mode by setting the RUN/STOP bit found in the
Configuration register. In the Shutdown mode, the LM99’s
SMBus interface remains while all circuitry not required is
turned off.
1.2 THE ALERT OUTPUT
The LM99’s ALERT pin is an active-low open-drain output
that is triggered by a temperature conversion that is outside
the limits defined by the temperature setpoint registers. Re-
set of the ALERT output is dependent upon the selected
method of use. The LM99’s ALERT pin is versatile and will
accommodate three different methods of use to best serve
the system designer: as a temperature comparator, as a
temperature–based interrupt flag, and as part of an SMBus
ALERT system. The three methods of use are further de-
scribed below. The ALERT and interrupt methods are differ-
ent only in how the user interacts with the LM99.
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 offset registers (RTOLB and
RTOHB) can be used to compensate for non–ideality error,
discussed further in Section 4.1 DIODE NON-IDEALITY.
The remote temperature reading reported is adjusted by
subtracting from, or adding to, the actual temperature read-
ing the value placed in the offset register.
Each temperature reading (LT and RT) is associated with a
T_CRIT setpoint register (LCS, RCS), a HIGH setpoint reg-
ister (LHS and RHS) and a LOW setpoint register (LLS and
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 STATUS REGISTER is set. If the
ALERT mask bit is not high, any bit set in the STATUS
REGISTER, with the exception of Busy (D7) and OPEN
(D2), will cause the ALERT output to be pulled low. Any
temperature conversion that is out of the limits defined by the
temperature setpoint registers will trigger an ALERT. Addi-
tionally, the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register
must be cleared to trigger an ALERT in all modes.
1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE
The LM99 takes approximately 31.25 ms to convert the
Local Temperature (LT), Remote Temperature (RT), and to
update all of its registers. Only during the conversion pro-
cess the busy bit (D7) in the Status register (02h) is high.
These conversions are addressed in a round–robin se-
quence. The conversion rate may be modified by the Con-
version Rate Register (04h). When the conversion rate is
modified a delay is inserted between conversions; however,
the actual conversion time remains at 31.25 ms. Different
conversion rates will cause the LM99 to draw different
amounts of supply current as shown in Figure 2.
1.2.1 ALERT Output as a Temperature Comparator
When the LM99 is implemented in a system in which it is not
serviced by an interrupt routine, the ALERT output could be
used as a temperature comparator. Under this method of
use, once the condition that triggered the ALERT to go low is
no longer present, the ALERT is de-asserted (Figure 3). For
example, if the ALERT output was activated by the compari-
>
son 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 dur-
ing set-up. In order for the ALERT to be used as a tempera-
ture comparator, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the
FILTER and ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must
be set high. This is not the power on default default state.

FIGURE 4. ALERT Output as an Interrupt Temperature
Response Diagram
FIGURE 3. ALERT Comparator Temperature Response
Diagram
1.2.3 ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT
When the ALERT output is connected to one or more ALERT
outputs of other SMBus compatible devices and to a master,
an SMBus alert line is created. Under this implementation,
the LM99’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 de-
signed to assist the master in resolving which part generated
an interrupt and service that interrupt while impeding system
operation as little as possible.
1.2.2 ALERT Output as an Interrupt
The LM99’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 undesirable for the interrupt flag
to repeatedly trigger during or before the interrupt service
routine has been completed. Under this method of operation,
during a read of the STATUS REGISTER the LM99 will set
the ALERT mask bit (D7 of the Configuration register) if any
bit in the STATUS REGISTER is set, with the exception of
Busy (D7) and OPEN (D2). This prevents further ALERT
triggering until the master has reset the ALERT mask bit, at
the end of the interrupt service routine. The STATUS REG-
ISTER bits are cleared only upon a read command from the
master (see Figure 4) 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, bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and
ALERT CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set low.
This is the power–on default state.
The SMBus alert line is connected to the open-drain ports of
all devices on the bus thereby AND’ing them together. The
ARA is a method by which with one command the SMBus
master may identify which part is pulling the SMBus alert line
LOW and prevent it from pulling it 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, first, send their address to the master and second,
release the SMBus alert line after recognizing a successful
transmission of their address.
The SMBus 1.1 and 2.0 specification state that in response
to an ARA (Alert Response Address) “after acknowledging
the slave address the device must disengage its SMBALERT
pulldown”. Furthermore, “if the host still sees SMBALERT
low when the message transfer is complete, it knows to read
the ARA again”. This SMBus “disengaging of SMBALERT”
requirement prevents locking up the SMBus alert line. Com-
petitive parts may address this “disengaging of SMBALERT”
requirement differently than the LM99 or not at all. SMBus
systems that implement the ARA protocol as suggested for
the LM99 will be fully compatible with all competitive parts.
The following sequence describes the response of a system
that uses the ALERT output pin as a interrupt flag:
1. Master Senses ALERT low
2. Master reads the LM99 STATUS REGISTER to deter-
mine what caused the ALERT
3. LM99 clears STATUS REGISTER, resets the ALERT
HIGH and sets the ALERT mask bit (D7 in the Configu-
ration register).
4. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to
be triggered. The fan is started, setpoint limits are ad-
justed, etc.
The LM99 fulfills “disengaging of SMBALERT” by setting the
ALERT mask bit (bit D7 in the Configuration register, at
address 09h) after successfully 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 STATUS REGISTER,
at address 02h, 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.
5. Master resets the ALERT mask (D7 in the Configuration
register).
The following sequence describes the ARA response proto-
col.

reset only after the Status Register is read and if a tempera-
ture conversion(s) is/are below the T_CRIT setpoint, as
shown in Figure 6.
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
1. Master Senses SMBus alert line low
2. Master sends a START followed by the Alert Response
Address (ARA) with a Read Command.
3. Alerting Device(s) send ACK.
4. Alerting Device(s) send their Address. While transmitting
their address, alerting devices sense whether their ad-
dress has been transmitted correctly. (The LM99 will
reset its ALERT output and set the ALERT mask bit once
its complete address has been transmitted successfully.)
5. Master/slave NoACK
6. Master sends STOP
7. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to

The ARA, 000 1100, is a general call address. No device
should ever be assigned this address.
1.4 POWER ON RESET DEFAULT STATES
Bit D0 (the ALERT configure bit) in the FILTER and ALERT
CONFIGURE REGISTER (xBF) must be set low in order for
the LM99 to respond to the ARA command.
LM99 always powers up to these known default states. The
LM99 remains in these states until after the first conversion.
1. Command Register set to 00h
2. Local Temperature set to 0˚C
The ALERT output can be disabled by setting the ALERT
mask bit, D7, of the Configuration register. The power on
default is to have the ALERT mask bit and the ALERT
configure bit low.
3. Remote Diode Temperature set to 0˚C until the end of
the first conversion.
4. Status Register set to 00h.
5. Configuration register set to 00h; ALERT enabled, Re-
mote T_CRIT alarm enabled and Local T_CRIT alarm
enabled
6. 85˚C Local T_CRIT temperature setpoint
7. 110˚C Remote T_CRIT temperature setpoint (126˚C Re-
mote diode junction temperature)
8. 70˚C Local and Remote HIGH temperature setpoints
9. 0˚C Local and Remote LOW temperature setpoints
10. Filter and Alert Configure Register set to 00h; filter dis-
abled, ALERT output set as an SMBus ALERT
11. Conversion Rate Register set to 8h; conversion rate set
to 16 conv./sec.
1.5 SMBus INTERFACE
20053829
The LM99 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the
SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBData line is bi-
directional. The LM99 never drives the SMBCLK line and it
does not support clock stretching. According to SMBus
specifications, the LM99 has a 7-bit slave address. All bits A6
through A0 are internally programmed and can not be
changed by software or hardware. The LM99 and LM99-1
have the following slave addresses:
FIGURE 5. ALERT Output as an SMBus ALERT
Temperature Response Diagram
1.3 T_CRIT_A OUTPUT and T_CRIT LIMIT
T_CRIT_A is activated when any temperature reading is
greater than the limit preset in the critical temperature set-
point register (T_CRIT), as shown in Figure 6. The Status
Register can be read to determine which event caused the
alarm. A bit in the Status Register is set high to indicate
which temperature reading exceeded the T_CRIT setpoint
temperature and caused the alarm, see Section 2.3.

quence by the A/D converter. The T_CRIT_A output and the
Status Register flags are updated after every Local and
Remote temperature conversion. T_CRIT_A follows the
state of the comparison, it is reset when the temperature falls
below the setpoint RCS-TH. The Status Register flags are

1.8 DIODE FAULT DETECTION
The LM99 is equipped with operational circuitry designed to
detect fault conditions concerning the remote diode. In the
event that the D+ pin is detected as shorted to VDD or
floating, the Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register
is loaded with +127˚C, the Remote Temperature Low Byte
(RTLB) register is loaded with 0, and the OPEN bit (D2) in
the status register is set. As a result, if the Remote T_CRIT
setpoint register (RCS) is set to a value less than +127˚C the
ALERT and T_Crit output pins will be pulled low, if the Alert
Mask and T_Crit Mask are disabled. If the Remote HIGH
Setpoint High Byte Register (RHSHB) is set to a value less
than +127˚C then ALERT will be pulled low, if the Alert Mask
is disabled. The OPEN bit itself will not trigger and ALERT.

In the event that the D+ pin is shorted to ground or D−, the
Remote Temperature High Byte (RTHB) register is loaded
with −128˚C (1000 0000) and the OPEN bit (D2) in the status
register will not be set. Since operating the LM99 at −128˚C
is beyond it’s operational limits, this temperature reading
represents this shorted fault condition. If the value in the
Remote Low Setpoint High Byte Register (RLSHB) is more
than −128˚C and the Alert Mask is disabled, ALERT will be
pulled low.
1.7 OPEN-DRAIN OUTPUTS
The SMBData, ALERT and T_CRIT_A outputs are open-
drain outputs and do not have internal pull-ups. A “high” level
will not be observed on these pins until pull-up current is
provided by some external source, typically a pull-up resis-
tor. Choice of resistor value depends on many system fac-
tors but, in general, the pull-up resistor should be as large as
possible. This will minimize any internal temperature reading
errors due to internal heating of the LM99. The maximum
resistance of the pull-up to provide a 2.1V high level, based
on LM99 specification for High Level Output Current with the
supply voltage at 3.0V, is 82 kΩ (5%) or 88.7 kΩ (1%).
Remote diode temperature sensors that have been previ-
ously released and are competitive with the LM99 output a
code of 0˚C if the external diode is short-circuited. This
change is an improvement that allows a reading of 0˚C to be
truly interpreted as a genuine 0˚C reading and not a fault
condition.

isters because that will be the data most frequently read
from the LM99), then the read can simply consist of an
address byte, followed by retrieving the data byte.

1.9 COMMUNICATING WITH THE LM99
The data registers in the LM99 are selected by the Com-
mand Register. At power-up the Command Register is set to
“00”, the location for the Read Local Temperature Register.
The Command Register latches the last location it was set
to. Each data register in the LM99 falls into one of four types
of user accessibility:
2. If the Command Register needs to be set, then an
address byte, command byte, repeat start, and another
address byte will accomplish a read.
The data byte has the most significant bit first. At the end of
a read, the LM99 can accept either Acknowledge or No
Acknowledge from the Master (No Acknowledge is typically
used as a signal for the slave that the Master has read its
last byte). It takes the LM99 31.25 ms to measure the
temperature of the remote diode and internal diode. When
retrieving all 10 bits from a previous remote diode tempera-
ture measurement, the master must insure that all 10 bits are
from the same temperature conversion. This may be
achieved by using one-shot mode or by setting the conver-
sion rate and monitoring the busy bit such that no conversion
occurs in between reading the MSB and LSB of the last
temperature conversion.

2. Write only
3. Read/Write same address
4. Read/Write different address
A Write to the LM99 will always include the address byte and
the command byte. A write to any register requires one data
byte.
Reading the LM99 can take place either of two ways:
1. If the location latched in the Command Register is cor-
rect (most of the time it is expected that the Command

devices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK or
SMBData lines are held low for 25-35 ms. Therefore, to
insure a timeout of all devices on the bus the SMBCLK
or SMBData lines must be held low for at least 35 ms.
In the event that the SMBus Master is RESET while the
LM99 is transmitting on the SMBData line, the LM99 must be
returned to a known state in the communication protocol.
This may be done in one of two ways:
2. When SMBData is HIGH, have the master initiate an
SMBus start. The LM99 will respond properly to an
SMBus start condition at any point during the communi-
cation. After the start the LM99 will expect an SMBus
Address address byte.

chine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBData
or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35 ms (tTIM

1.13 ONE-SHOT REGISTER
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
The One-Shot register is used to initiate a single conversion
and comparison cycle when the device is in standby mode,
after which the device returns to standby. This is not a data
register and it is the write operation that 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.
1.12 FAULT QUEUE
In order to suppress erroneous ALERT or T_CRIT triggering
the LM99 incorporates a Fault Queue. The Fault Queue acts
to insure a remote temperature measurement is genuinely
beyond a HIGH, LOW or T_CRIT setpoint by not triggering
until three consecutive out of limit measurements have been
made, see Figure 10. The fault queue defaults off upon
power-on and may be activated by setting bit D0 in the
Configuration register (09h) to “1”.

3.0 Application Hints
The LM99 can be applied easily in the same way as other
integrated-circuit temperature sensors, and its remote diode
sensing capability allows it to be used in new ways as well.
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 printed
circuit board lands and traces soldered to the LM99’s pins.
This presumes that the ambient air temperature is almost 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 of the
LM99 die will be at an intermediate temperature between the
surface and air temperatures. Again, the primary thermal
conduction path is through the leads, so the circuit board
temperature will contribute to the die temperature much
more strongly than will the air temperature.
In the above equation, η and IS are dependant 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 voltage seen by the LM99 also includes the IFRS voltage
drop of the series resistance. The non-ideality factor, η, is
the only other parameter not accounted for and depends on
the diode that is used for measurement. Since ∆VBE is
proportional to both η and T, the variations in η cannot be
distinguished from variations in temperature. Since the non-
ideality factor is not controlled by the temperature sensor, it
will directly add to the inaccuracy of the sensor. As an
example, assume a temperature sensor has an accuracy
specification of 1˚C at room temperature of 25 ˚C and the
process used to manufacture the diode has a non-ideality
variation of 0.1%. The resulting accuracy of the tempera-
ture sensor at room temperature will be:
To measure temperature external to the LM99’s die, use a
remote diode. This diode can be located on the die of a
target IC, allowing measurement of the IC’s temperature,
independent of the LM99’s temperature. The LM99 has been
optimized to measure the NVIDIA® GeForce FX family
™
thermal diode. Remember that a discrete diode’s tempera-
ture will be affected, and often dominated, by the tempera-
ture of its leads.

TACC
=
1˚C + ( 0.1% of 298 ˚K) = 1.4 ˚C
3.1.1 Diode Non-Ideality Factor Effect on Accuracy
The additional inaccuracy in the temperature measurement
caused by η, can be eliminated if each temperature sensor is
calibrated with the remote diode that it will be paired with.
When a transistor is connected as a diode, the following
relationship holds for variables VBE, T and If:
3.1.2 Compensating for Diode Non-Ideality
In order to compensate for the errors introduced by non-
ideality, the temperature sensor is calibrated for a particular
processor. National Semiconductor temperature sensors are
always calibrated to the typical non-ideality of a given pro-
cessor type. The LM99 is calibrated for the non-ideality of
the NVIDIA GeForceFX family thermal diode. When a tem-
perature sensor calibrated for a particular processor type is
used with a different processor type or a given processor
type has a non-ideality that strays from the typical, errors are
introduced.

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.

3.2 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 LM99’s GND pin is as
close as possible to the Processors 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 1˚C of error in the diode temperature read-
ing. Keeping the printed circuit board as clean as pos-
sible will minimize leakage current.
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 sen-
sor and the LM99 can cause temperature conversion errors.
Keep in mind that the signal level the LM99 is trying to
measure is in microvolts. The following guidelines should be
followed:
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 LM99. 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 LM99’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 cou-
pling 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.
1. Place a 0.1 µF 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 LM99’s D+ and D−
pins. Make sure the traces to the 2.2 nF capacitor are
matched.
2. Ideally, the LM99 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 Ω
can cause as much as 1˚C 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
