HIGH-SPEED MODE
SENSOR FAULT
In order for the two-wire bus to operate at frequencies
above 400kHz, the master device must issue a
High-Speed mode (Hs-mode) master code (0000
1xxx) as the first byte after a START condition to
switch the bus to high-speed operation. The
TMP512/13 do not acknowledge this byte, but switch
the input filters on SDA and SCL and the output filter
on SDA to operate in Hs-mode, allowing transfers at
up to 3.4MHz. After the Hs-mode master code has
been issued, the master transmits a START condition
to a two-wire slave address that initiates a data
transfer operation. The bus continues to operate in
Hs-mode until a STOP condition occurs on the bus.
Upon receiving the STOP condition, the TMP512/13
switch the input and output filters back to Fast mode
operation.
The TMP512/13 can sense an open circuit.
Short-circuit conditions return a value of –256°C. The
detection circuitry consists of a voltage comparator
that trips when the voltage at DXP exceeds (V+) –
0.6V (typical). The comparator output is continuously
checked during a conversion. If a fault is detected,
the OPEN bit (bit 0) in the temperature result register
is set to '1' and the rest of the register bits should be
ignored.
When not using the remote sensor with the
TMP512/13, the DXP and DXN inputs must be
connected together to prevent meaningless fault
warnings.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
The TMP512/13 sense when the power-supply
voltage has reached a minimum voltage level for the
ADC to function. The detection circuitry consists of a
voltage comparator that enables the ADC after the
power supply (V+) exceeds 2.7V (typical). The
comparator output is continuously checked during a
POWER-UP CONDITIONS
Power-up conditions apply to a software reset via the
RST bit (bit 15) in the Configuration Register, or the
two-wire bus General Call Reset. At device power up,
all Status bits are masked, and the SMBus Alert
function is disabled. All watchdog outputs default to
active low and transparent (non-latched) modes.
conversion. The TMP512/13 do not perform
a
temperature conversion if the power supply is not
valid. The PVLD bit (see Status Register; Local
Temperature Reset Register; Remote Temperature
Reset 1, 2 and 3 Registers) of the individual
Local/Remote Temperature Result Registers are set
to '1' and the temperature result may be incorrect.
SHUTDOWN MODE
The TMP512/13 shutdown mode of operation allows
the user flexibility to shut down the shunt/bus voltage
measurement and the temperature measurement
functions individually.
TEMPERATURE AVERAGING
To shut down the shunt/bus voltage measurement
The TMP512/13 average the input diode voltages
that determine the remote temperature by sampling
function immediately, set bits
2 through 0 in
Configuration Register 1 (00h) to '000' respectively.
To shut down the shunt/bus voltage measurement
after the end of the current conversion, set bits 2
through 0 in Configuration Resister 1 (00h) to '100'
respectively.
multiple times throughout
a
conversion. The
temperature result can be extracted from four
different VBE readings and is sampled 600 times in
130ms (max). Each VBE voltage is sampled 150 times
through integration capacitors that average the
results throughout the conversion time. A delta-sigma
(ΔΣ) modulator and digital filter integrate the VBE
voltages and create a sync filter averaging system. In
addition, a low-pass filter is present at the input of the
converter with a cutoff frequency of 65kHz. This
integrating topology offers superior noise immunity.
To shut down the temperature measurement function
immediately, set bits 15 through 11 in Configuration
Register 2 (01h) to '00000' respectively. To shut
down the temperature measurement after the end of
the current conversion, set bit 15 in Configuration
Register 2 (01h) to '0'.
FILTERING
ONE-SHOT COMMAND
Remote junction temperature sensors are usually
For the TMP512/13, when the temperature core is in
shutdown and the voltage core is in triggered mode, a
single conversion is started on all enabled channels
by writing a '1' to the OS bit in Configuration Register
1. This write operation starts one conversion; the
TMP512/13 returns to shutdown mode when that
conversion completes. At the end of the conversion,
the Conversion Ready flags (bit 6 and bit 5) in the
Status Register are set to indicate end of conversion.
implemented in
a noisy environment. Noise is
frequently generated by fast digital signals and if not
filtered properly will induce errors that can corrupt
temperature measurements. The TMP512/13 have a
built-in 65kHz filter on the inputs of DXP and DXN to
minimize the effects of noise. However, a bypass
capacitor placed differentially across the inputs of the
remote temperature sensor is recommended to make
the application more robust against unwanted
