FEATURES
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:

Electronic Test Equipment
The LM99 and LM99-1 have the same functions but
different SMBus slave addresses. This allows for one
of each to be on the same bus at the same time.
Office Electronics
Activation of the ALERT output occurs when any
temperature goes outside a preprogrammed window
set by the HIGH and LOW temperature limit registers
or exceeds the T_CRIT temperature limit. Activation
of the T_CRIT_A occurs when any temperature
exceeds the T_CRIT programmed limit.

(1) Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. DC and AC electrical specifications do not
apply when operating the device beyond its rated operating conditions.
(2) When the input voltage (VI) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (VI < GND or VI > VDD), the current at that pin should be limited to 5
mA. Parasitic components and or ESD protection circuitry are shown in the figure below for the LM99's pins. The nominal breakdown
voltage of D3 is 6.5 V. Care should be taken not to forward bias the parasitic diode, D1, present on pins: D+, D−. Doing so by more than
50 mV may corrupt a temperature measurement.

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 ΔΣ 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 Remote High (RHS), Remote
Low (RLS) and Remote T_CRIT (RCS) user-programmable temperature limit registers. Activation 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
occurs when the temperature is above the T_CRIT setpoint. T_CRIT_A remains activated until the temperature
goes below the setpoint calculated by T_CRIT − TH. The hysteresis register impacts both the remote
temperature and local temperature readings.
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.
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 DIODE NON-IDEALITY. The remote temperature reading
reported is adjusted by subtracting from, or adding to, the actual temperature reading the value placed in the
offset register.
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 process the busy bit (D7) in the Status register (02h) is
high. These conversions are addressed in a round–robin sequence. The conversion rate may be modified by the
Conversion 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 4.

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. Reset 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 described below. The ALERT and
interrupt methods are different only in how the user interacts with the LM99.

SNIS129D –JANUARY 2003–REVISED MARCH 2013
Each temperature reading (LT and RT) is associated with a T_CRIT setpoint register (LCS, RCS), a HIGH
setpoint register (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. Additionally, the ALERT mask bit in the Configuration register must be cleared to
trigger an ALERT in all modes.
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 5). 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, 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 5. ALERT Comparator Temperature Response Diagram
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 REGISTER
bits are cleared only upon a read command from the master (see Figure 6) 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 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 determine what caused the ALERT
3. LM99 clears STATUS REGISTER, resets the ALERT HIGH and sets the ALERT mask bit (D7 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 (D7 in the Configuration register).

Figure 6. ALERT Output as an Interrupt Temperature Response Diagram
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 designed to assist the master in resolving which part generated an interrupt and
service that interrupt while impeding system operation as little as possible.
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. Competitive 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 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.
The following sequence describes the ARA response protocol.
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
address 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.)

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.
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.

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
setpoint register (T_CRIT), as shown in Figure 8. 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 STATUS REGISTER (SR).
Local and remote temperature diodes are sampled in sequence 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 reset only after the Status Register is read and if a temperature conversion(s) is/are below the
T_CRIT setpoint, as shown in STATUS REGISTER (SR).

SMBus INTERFACE
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:

TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
Temperature data can only be read from the Local and Remote Temperature registers; the setpoint registers
(T_CRIT, LOW, HIGH) are read/write.
Remote temperature data is represented by an 11-bit, two's complement word with an LSB (Least Significant Bit)
equal to 0.125°C. The data format is a left justified 16-bit word available in two 8-bit registers:

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 resistor. Choice of resistor value depends on many system factors 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%).
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.
Remote diode temperature sensors that have been previously 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.
COMMUNICATING WITH THE LM99
The data registers in the LM99 are selected by the Command 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:
1. Read only
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 correct (most of the time it is expected that the Command
Register will point to one of the Read Temperature Registers 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.
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 temperature 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 conversion rate and monitoring the busy bit such that no conversion occurs in between reading
the MSB and LSB of the last temperature conversion.

SERIAL INTERFACE RESET
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:
1. When SMBData is LOW, the LM99 SMBus state machine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMBData
or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35 ms (tTIMEOUT). Note that according to SMBus specification 2.0 all
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.
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 communication. After the start the LM99 will expect an SMBus
Address address byte.

filter can be set according to the table shown.
Level 2 sets maximum filtering.

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 15. The fault
queue defaults off upon power-on and may be activated by setting bit D0 in the Configuration register (09h) to
“1”.
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 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.

(Read Address FFh) The LM99 version has a default value 31h or 49 decimal. The LM99-1 version has a default
value of 34h or 52 decimal. This register will increment by 1 every time there is a revision to the die by Texas
Instruments.
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.
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 GeForceFX family thermal diode. Remember that a discrete diode's
temperature will be affected, and often dominated, by the temperature of its leads.

DIODE NON-IDEALITY
Diode Non-Ideality Factor Effect on Accuracy
When a transistor is connected as a diode, the following relationship holds for variables VBE, T and If:
Vbe
IF = IS ehV - 1
t
where
k T
q
Vt =

q = 1.6×10−19 Coulombs (the electron charge),
T = Absolute Temperature in Kelvin
k = 1.38×10−23 joules/K (Boltzmann's constant),
η is the non-ideality factor of the process the diode is manufactured on,
IS = Saturation Current and is process dependent,
If = Forward Current through the base-emitter junction
VBE = Base-Emitter Voltage drop
(1)
(2)
In the active region, the -1 term is negligible and may be eliminated, yielding the following equation
Vbe
IF = IS ehV
t
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:
k T
Vbe = h
ln (N)
q
(3)
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 ΔVBE 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 temperature sensor at room temperature will be:
TACC = ± 1°C + (±0.1% of 298 °K) = ±1.4 °C
(4)
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.
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. Texas Instruments temperature sensors are always calibrated to the typical non-ideality of a
given processor type. The LM99 is calibrated for the non-ideality of the NVIDIA GeForceFX family thermal diode.
When a temperature 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.
Temperature errors associated with non-ideality may be reduced in a specific temperature range of concern
through use of the offset registers (11h and 12h). See Table 17 below.

PCB LAYOUT FOR MINIMIZING NOISE
Figure 16. 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 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:
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 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.
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 reading. Keeping the printed circuit board as clean
as possible will minimize leakage current.
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 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.
