NCT203
Low Voltage, High
Accuracy Temperature
Monitor with I2C Interface
The NCT203 is a digital thermometer and undertemperature/
overtemperature alarm, intended for use in thermal management
systems requiring low power and size. The NCT203 operates over a
supply range of 1.4 V to 2.75 V making it possible to use it in a wide
range of applications including low power devices.
http://onsemi.com
The NCT203 can measure the ambient temperature accurate to
1.75°C. The device operates over a wide temperature range of −40 to
+125°C.
DFN8
MT SUFFIX
CASE 511BU
The NCT203 has a configurable ALERT output and over−
temperature shutdown THERM pin.

Communication with the NCT203 is accomplished via the I C
interface which is compatible with industry standard protocols.
Through this interface the NCT203s internal registers may be
accessed. These registers allow the user to read the current
temperature, change the configuration settings and adjust limits.
An ALERT output signals when the on−chip temperature is out of
range. The THERM output is a comparator output that can be used to
shut down the system if it exceeds the programmed limit. The ALERT
output can be reconfigured as a second THERM output, if required.

NCT203
Theory of Operation
measurement. To reduce the effects of noise, digital filtering
is performed by averaging the results of 16 measurement
cycles for low conversion rates. At rates of 16−, 32− and 64−
conversions/second, no digital averaging occurs. Signal
conditioning and measurement of the internal temperature
sensor are performed in the same manner.
The NCT203 is an on−chip temperature sensor and
over/under temperature alarm. When the NCT203 is
operating normally, the on−board ADC operates in a free
running mode. The ADC digitizes the signals from the
temperature sensor and the results are stored in the
temperature value register.
The measurement results are compared with the
corresponding high, low, and THERM temperature limits,
stored in the on−chip registers. Out−of−limit comparisons
generate flags that are stored in the status register. A result
that exceeds the high temperature limit or the low
temperature limit causes the ALERT output to assert.
Exceeding the THERM temperature limits causes the
THERM output to assert low. The ALERT output can be
reprogrammed as a second THERM output.
The limit registers are programmed and the device
controlled and configured via the serial I C. The contents of
any register are also read back via the I C. Control and
configuration functions consist of switching the device
between normal operation and standby mode, selecting the
temperature measurement range, masking or enabling the
ALERT output, switching Pin 6 between ALERT and
THERM2, and selecting the conversion rate.
Temperature Measurement Results
The results of the temperature measurement are stored in
the temperature value register and compared with limits
programmed into the high and low limit registers.
The temperature value is in Register 0x00 and has a
resolution of 1°C.
Temperature Measurement Range
The temperature measurement range is, by default, 0°C to
+127°C. However, the NCT203 can be operated using an
extended temperature range. The extended measurement
range is −64°C to +191°C. Therefore, the NCT203 can be
used to measure the full temperature range of the NCT203,
from −40°C to +125°C.
The extended temperature range is selected by setting
Bit 2 of the configuration register to 1. The temperature
range is 0°C to 127°C when Bit 2 equals 0. A valid result is
available in the next measurement cycle after changing the
temperature range.

Temperature Measurement Method
In extended temperature mode, the upper and lower
temperature that can be measured by the NCT203 is limited
by the device temperature range of −40°C to +125°C. The
temperature register can have values from −64°C to +191°C.
It should be noted that although temperature
measurements can be made while the part is in extended
temperature mode, the NCT203 should not be exposed to
temperatures greater than those specified in the absolute
maximum ratings section. Further, the device is only
guaranteed to operate as specified at ambient temperatures
from −40°C to +125°C.
A simple method of measuring temperature is to exploit
the negative temperature coefficient of a diode, measuring
the base emitter voltage (V ) of a transistor operated at
BE
constant current. However, this technique requires
calibration to null the effect of the absolute value of VBE,
which varies from device to device.
The technique used in the NCT203 measures the change
in VBE when the device operates at different currents.
To measure DV , the operating current through the
BE
sensor is switched among related currents. N1 x I and N2 x I
are different multiples of the current, I. The currents through
the temperature diode are switched between I and N1 x I,
Temperature Data Format
givingDV ; and then between I and N2 x I, giving DV
.
BE1
BE2
The NCT203 has two temperature data formats. When the
temperature measurement range is from 0°C to 127°C
(default), the temperature data format for temperature
results is binary. When the measurement range is in
extended mode, an offset binary data format is used.
Temperature values are offset by 64°C in the offset binary
data format. Examples of temperatures in both data formats
are shown in Table 5.
The temperature is then calculated using the two DV
BE
measurements.
The resulting DV waveforms are passed through a
BE
65 kHz low−pass filter to remove noise and then to a
chopper−stabilized amplifier. This amplifies and rectifies
the waveform to produce a dc voltage proportional to DV
.

The NCT203 has a temperature register to store the results
of temperature measurement. This register can only be

The configuration register is Address 0x03 at read and
Address 0x09 at write. Its power−on default is 0x00. Only
four bits of the configuration register are used. Bit 0, Bit 1,
Bit 3, and Bit 4 are reserved; only zeros should be written to
these.
Bit 7 of the configuration register masks the ALERT
output. If Bit 7 is 0, the ALERT output is enabled. This is the
power−on default. It Bit 7 is set to 1, the ALERT output is
disabled. This applies only if Pin 6 is configured as ALERT.
If Pin 6 is configured as THERM2, then the value of Bit 7
has no effect.

1. Offset binary scale temperature values are offset by
64°C.
2. Binary scale temperature measurement returns 0°C for all
temperatures < 0°C.
3. Binary scale temperature measurement returns 127°C for
all temperatures > 127°C.
If Bit 6 is set to 0, which is power−on default, the device
is in operating mode with ADC converting. If Bit 6 is set to
1, the device is in standby mode and the ADC does not
2
convert. The I C does, however, remain active in standby
mode; therefore, values can be read from or written to the
NCT203 via the I C. The ALERT and THERM output are
also active in standby mode. Changes made to the register in
standby mode that affect the THERM or ALERT outputs
cause these signals to be updated.
Bit 5 determines the configuration of Pin 6 on the
NCT203. If Bit 5 is 0 (default), then Pin 6 is configured as
a ALERT output. If Bit 5 is 1, then Pin 6 is configured as a
THERM2 output. Bit 7, the ALERT mask bit, is only active
when Pin 6 is configured as an ALERT output. If Pin 6 is set
up as a THERM2 output, then Bit 7 has no effect.
Bit 2 sets the temperature measurement range. If Bit 2 is
0 (default value), the temperature measurement range is set
between 0°C to +127°C. Setting Bit 2 to 1 sets the
measurement range to the extended temperature range
(−64°C to +191°C).
The user can switch between measurement ranges at any
time. Switching the range likewise switches the data format.
The next temperature result following the switching is
reported back to the register in the new format. However, the
contents of the limit registers do not change. It is up to the
user to ensure that when the data format changes, the limit
registers are reprogrammed as necessary. More information
on this is found in the Limit Registers section.

NCT203 Registers
The NCT203 contains 12, 8−bit registers in total. These
registers store the results of the temperature measurement,
high and low temperature limits, and configure and control
the device. See the Address Pointer Register section through
the Consecutive ALERT Register section of this data sheet
for more information on the NCT203 registers. Additional
details are shown in Table 6 through Table 9. The entire
register map is available in Table 10.
Table 6. CONFIGURATION REGISTER BIT
ASSIGNMENTS
Address Pointer Register
Power−On
The address pointer register itself does not have, nor does
it require, an address because the first byte of every write
operation is automatically written to this register. The data
in this first byte always contains the address of another
register on the NCT203 that is stored in the address pointer
register. It is to this register address that the second byte of
a write operation is written, or to which a subsequent read
operation is performed.
The power−on default value of the address pointer register
is 0x00. Therefore, if a read operation is performed
immediately after power−on, without first writing to the
address pointer, the value of the temperature is returned
because its register address is 0x00.

NCT203
Conversion Rate Register
provided which applies to both THERM channels. This
hysteresis value can be reprogrammed to any value after
powerup (Register Address 0x21).
The conversion rate register is Address 0x04 at read and
Address 0x0A at write. The lowest four bits of this register are
used to program the conversion rate by dividing the internal
oscillator clock by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024
to give conversion times from 15.5 ms (Code 0x0A) to 16
seconds (Code 0x00). For example, a conversion rate of
eight conversions per second means that beginning at
125 ms intervals, the device performs a conversion on the
internal temperature channel.
It is important to remember that the temperature limits
data format is the same as the temperature measurement data
format. Therefore, if the temperature measurement uses
default binary, then the temperature limits also use the
binary scale. If the temperature measurement scale is
switched, however, the temperature limits do not
automatically switch. The user must reprogram the limit
registers to the desired value in the correct data format. For
example, if the low limit is set at 10°C with the default binary
scale, the limit register value is 0000 1010b. If the scale is
switched to offset binary, the value in the low temperature
limit register needs to be reprogrammed to 0100 1010b.
The conversion rate register can be written to and read
2
back over the I C. The higher four bits of this register are
unused and must be set to 0. The default value of this register
is 0x08, giving a rate of 16 conversions per second. Use of
slower conversion times greatly reduces the device power
consumption.
Status Register
Table 7. CONVERSION RATES
The status register is a read−only register at Address 0x02.
It contains status information for the NCT203. When Bit 7
of the status register is high, it indicates that the ADC is bisy
converting. The other bits in this register flag the
out−of−limittemperature measurements (Bit 6 to Bit 3, and
Bit 1 to Bit 0).
If Pin 6 is configured as an ALERT output, the following
applies: If the temperature measurement exceeds its limits,
Bit 6 (high limit) or Bit 5 (low limit) of the status register
asserts to flag this condition. These flags are NOR’ed
together, so if any of them is high, the ALERT interrupt latch
is set and the ALERT output goes low.
Reading the status register clears the flags, Bit 6 to Bit 2,
provided the error conditions causing the flags to be set have
gone away. A flag bit can be reset only if the corresponding
value register contains an in−limit measurement or if the
sensor is good.

The ALERT interrupt latch (output) is reset by either
reading the status register or by issuing the device with an
ARA. In order for either of the above to work the error
condition must have gone away.
When Flag 0 is set, the THERM output goes low to
indicate that the temperature measurement is outside the
programmed limits. The THERM output does not need to be
reset, unlike the ALERT output. Once the measurements are
within the limits, the corresponding status register bits are
automatically reset and the THERM output goes high. The
user may add hysteresis by programming Register 0x21. The
THERM output is reset only when the temperature falls to
limit value minus the hysteresis value.
When Pin 6 is configured as THERM2, only the high
temperature limits are relevant. If Flag 6 is set, the THERM2
output goes low to indicate that the temperature
measurement is outside the programmed limits. Flag 5 has
no effect on THERM2. The behavior of THERM2 is
otherwise the same as THERM.
Limit Registers
The NCT203 has three limit registers: high, low, and
THERM temperature limits for temperature measurements.
There is also a THERM hysteresis register. All limit
registers can be written to, and read byck over I C. See
Table 9 for details of the limit register addresses and their
power−on default values.
When Pin 6 is configured as an ALERT output, the high
limit registers perform a > comparison, while the low limit
registers perform a ≤ comparison. For example, if the high
limit register is programmed with 80°C, then measuring
81°C results in an out−of−limit condition, setting a flag in
the status register. If the low limit register is programmed
with 0°C, measuring 0°C or lower resutls in an out−of−limit
condition.

Exceeding the THERM limit asserts THERM low. When
Pin 6 is configured as THERM2, exceeding the high limit
asserts THERM2 low. A default hysteresis value of 10°C is

Consecutive ALERT Register
Table 8. STATUS REGISTER BIT ASSIGNMENTS
The value written to this register determines how many
out−of−limitmeasurements must occur before an ALERT is
generated. The default value is that one out−of−limit
measurement generates an ALERT. The maximum value
that can be chosen is 4. The purpose of this register is to
allow the user to perform some filtering of the output. This
is particularly useful at the fastest three conversion rates,
where no averaging takes place. This register is at Address
0x22.

One−Shot Register
The one−shot register is used to initiate a conversion and
comparison cycle when the NCT203 is in standby mode,
after which the device returns to standby. Writing to the
one−shot register address (0x0F) causes the NCT203 to
perform a conversion and comparison on the temperature.
This is not a data register as such, and it is the write operation
to Address 0x0F that causes the one−shot conversion. The
data written to this address is irrelevant and is not stored.
Note: x = don’t care bits, and y = Bus timeout bit.
Default = 0. See interface section for more information.

mode, the master overrides the acknowledge bit by
pulling the data line high during the low period
before the ninth clock pulse. This is known as no
acknowledge. The master takes the data line low
during the low period before the tenth clock pulse,
then high during the tenth clock pulse to assert a
stop condition.
2
Control of the NCT203 is carried out via the I C
compatible serial interface. The NCT203 is connected to this
bus as a slave device, under the control of a master device.
The NCT203 has a bus timeout feature. When this is
enabled, the bus times out after typically 25 ms of no
activity. After this time, the NCT203 resets the SDA line
back to its idle state (high impedance) and waits for the next
start condition. However, this feature is not enabled by
default. Bit 7 of the consecutive alert register (Address =
0x22) should be set to enable it.
To write data to one of the device data registers, or to read
data from it, the address pointer register must be set so that
the correct data register is addressed. The first byte of a write
operation always contains a valid address that is stored in the
address pointer register. If data is to be written to the device,
the write operation contains a second data byte that is written
to the register selected by the address pointer register.
This procedure is illustrated in Figure 4. The device
address is sent over the bus followed by R/W set to 0. Thisis
followed by two data bytes. The first data byte is the address
of the internal data register to be written to, which is stored
in the address pointer register. The second data byte is the
data to be written to the internal data register.
Addressing the Device
2
In general, every I C device has a 7−bit device address,
except for some devices that have extended 10−bit
addresses. When the master device sends a device address
over the bus, the slave device with that address responds.
The NCT203 is available with one device address, 0x4C. For
systems requiring more than one NCT203, another address
option will be required. Please contact your local
ON Semiconductor representative for more information.
The serial bus protocol operates as follows:
When reading data from a register there are two
possibilities.
1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a
start condition, defined as a high to low transition
on the serial data line SDA, while the serial clock
line SCL remains high. This indicates that an
address/data stream is going to follow. All slave
peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to
the start condition and shift in the next eight bits,
consisting of a 7−bit address (MSB first) plus a
read/write (R/W) bit, which deternimes the
direction of the data transfer i.e. whether data is
written to, or read from, the slave device. The
peripheral with the address corresponding to the
transmitted address responds by pulling the data
line low during the low period before the ninth
clock pulse, known as the acknowledge bit. All
other devices on the bus now remain idle while the
selected device waits for data to be read from or
written to it. If the R/W bit is a zero then the
master writes to the slave device. If the R/W bit is
a one then the master reads from the slave device.
2. Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of
nine clock pulses, eight bits of data followed by an
acknowledge bit from the receiver of data.
• If the address pointer register value of the NCT203 is
unknown or not the desired value, it is first necessary to
set it to the correct value before data can be read from
the desired data register. This is done by writing to the
NCT203 as before, but only the data byte containing
the register read address is sent, because data is not to
be written to the register see Figure 4.
A read operation is then performed consisting of the
serial bus address, R/W bit set to 1, followed by the
data byte read from the data register see Figure 6.
• If the address pointer register is known to be at the
desired address, data can be read from the
corresponding data register without first writing to the
address pointer register and the bus transaction shown
in Figure 5 can be omitted.
Notes:
• It is possible to read a data byte from a data register
without first writing to the address pointer register.
However, if the address pointer register is already at the
correct value, it is not possible to write data to a register
without writing to the address pointer register because
the first data byte of a write is always written to the
address pointer register.
• Some of the registers have different addresses for read
and write operations. The write address of a register
must be written to the address pointer if data is to be
written to that register, but it may not be possible to
read data from that address. The read address of a
register must be written to the address pointer before
data can be read from that register.
Transitions on the data line must occur during the
low period of the clock signal and remain stable
during the high period, since a low−to−high
transition when the clock is high can be interpreted
as a stop signal.
3. When all data bytes have been read or written,
stop conditions are established. In write mode, the
master pulls the data line high during the tenth
clock pulse to assert a stop condition. In read

1. SMBALERT is pulled low.
2. Master initiates a read operation and sends the
alert response address (ARA = 0001 100). This is
a general call address that must not be used as a
specific device address.
3. The device whose ALERT output is low responds
to the alert response address and the master reads
its device address. As the device address is seven
bits, an LSB of 1 is added. The address of the
device is now known and it can be interrogated in
the usual way.
The ALERT output can be used as an interrupt signal to a
processor, or as an SMBALERT. Slave devices on the bus
cannot normally signal to the bus master that they want to
talk, but the SMBALERT function allows them to do so.
One or more ALERT outputs can be connected to a
common SMBALERT line that is connected to the master.
When the SMBALERT line is pulled low by one of the
devices, the following procedure occurs (see Figure 7):

where the temperature hovers around the THERM limit, and
the fan is constantly switched.
Once the NCT203 has responded to the alert
response address, it resets its ALERT output,
provided that the error condition that caused the
ALERT no longer exists. If the SMBALERT line
remains low, the master sends the ARA again, and
so on until all devices whose ALERT outputs were
low have responded.

Low Power Standby Mode
Figure 8 shows how the THERM and ALERT outputs
operate. The ALERT output can be used as a SMBALERT
to signal to the host via the I C that the temperature has risen.
The user can use the THERM output to turn on a fan to cool
the system, if the temperature continues to increase. This
method ensures that there is a fail−safe mechanism to cool
the system, without the need for host intervention.
The NCT203 can be put into low power standby mode by
setting Bit 6 of the configuration register. When Bit 6 is low,
the NCT203 operates normally. When Bit 6 is high, the ADC
is inhibited, and any conversion in progress is terminated
without writing the result to the corresponding value

register. However, the I C is still enabled. Power
consumption in the standby mode is reduced to 15 mA if
there is no bus activity.
TEMPERATURE
1005C
When the device is in standby mode, it is possible to
initiate a one−shot conversion by writing to the one−shot
register (Address 0x0F), after which the device returns to
standby. It does not matter what is written to the one−shot
register, all data written to it is ignored. It is also possible to
write new values to the limit register while in standby mode.
If the value stored in the temperature value register is outside
the new limits, an ALERT is generated, even though the
NCT203 is still in standby.

3
The NCT203 has two interrupt outputs, ALERT and
THERM. Both have different functions and behavior.
ALERT is maskable and responds to violations of software
programmed temperature limits. THERM is intended as a
fail−safe interrupt output that cannot be masked.
If the temperature exceeds the programmed high
temperature limits, or equals or exceeds the low temperature
limits, the ALERT output is asserted low. ALERT is reset
when serviced by a master reading its device address,
provided the error condition has gone away and the status
register has been reset.
The THERM output asserts low if the temperature
exceeds the programmed THERM limits. THERM
temperature limits should normally be equal to or greater
than the high temperature limits. THERM is reset
automatically when the temperature falls back within the
THERM limit. A hysteresis value can be programmed; in
which case, THERM resets when the temperature falls to the
limit value minus the hysteresis value. The power−on
hysteresis default value is 10°C, but this can be
reprogrammed to any value after powerup.
The hysteresis loop on the THERM outputs is useful when
THERM is used, for example, as an on/off controller for a
fan. The user’s system can be set up so that when THERM
asserts, a fan is switched on to cool the system. When
THERM goes high again, the fan can be switched off.
Programming a hysteresis value protects from fan jitter,

Interrupts
• If the measured temperature exceeds the high
temperature limit, the ALERT output asserts low.
• If the temperature continues to increase and exceeds the
THERM limit, the THERM output asserts low. This can
be used to throttle the CPU clock or switch on a fan.
• The THERM output deasserts (goes high) when the
temperature falls to THERM limit minus hysteresis.
The default hysteresis value is 10°C.
• The ALERT output deasserts only when the
temperature has fallen below the high temperature
limit, and the master has read the device address and
cleared the status register.
• Pin 6 on the NCT203 can be configured as either an
ALERT output or as an additional THERM output.
• THERM2 asserts low when the temperature exceeds the
programmed high temperature limits. It is reset in the
same manner as THERM and is not maskable.
• The programmed hysteresis value also applies to
THERM2.
Figure 9 shows how THERM and THERM2 operate
together to implement two methods of cooling the system.

fan. If the temperature continues to rise and exceeds the
THERM limits, the THERM output provides additional
cooling by throttling the CPU.
• If the temperature continues to increase and exceeds the

• The THERM output deasserts (goes high) when the
temperature falls to THERM limit minus hysteresis. In

below the THERM2 limit, the THERM2 signal resets.
