Precision Dual Remote Diode Temperature Sensor with
™
SMBus Interface and TruTherm Technology
n Remote diode fault detection
n On-board local temperature sensing
n Remote temperature readings without digital filtering:
General Description
The LM95231 is a precision dual remote diode temperature
sensor (RDTS) that uses National’s TruTherm technology.
The 2-wire serial interface of the LM95231 is compatible with
SMBus 2.0. The LM95231 can sense three temperature
zones, it can measure the temperature of its own die as well
as two diode connected transistors. The LM95231 includes
digital filtering and an advanced input stage that includes
analog filtering and TruTherm technology that reduces
processor-to-processor non-ideality spread. The diode con-
nected transistors can be a “thermal diode” as found in Intel
and AMD processors or can simply be a diode connected
MMBT3904 transistor. TruTherm technology allows accurate
measurement of “thermal diodes” found on small geometry
processes, 90nm and below. The LM95231 supports user
— 0.125 ˚C LSb
— 10-bits plus sign or 11-bits programmable resolution
— 11-bits resolves temperatures above 127 ˚C
n Remote temperature readings with digital filtering:
— 0.03125 ˚C LSb with filtering
— 12-bits plus sign or 13-bits programmable resolution
— 13-bits resolves temperatures above 127 ˚C
n Local temperature readings:
— 0.25 ˚C
— 9-bits plus sign
n Status register support
n Programmable conversion rate allows user optimization
of power consumption
selectable thermal diode non-ideality of either a Pentium®
processor on 90nm process or 2N3904.

n Shutdown mode one-shot conversion control
n SMBus 2.0 compatible interface, supports TIMEOUT
n 8-pin MSOP package
The LM95231 resolution format for remote temperature
readings can be programmed to be 11-bits signed or un-
signed with the digital filtering disabled. When the filtering is
enabled the resolution increases to 13-bits signed or un-
signed. In the unsigned mode the LM95231 remote diode
readings can resolve temperatures above 127˚C. Local tem-
perature readings have a resolution of 9-bits plus sign.

The 2-wire serial interface, of the LM95231, is compatible
with SMBus 2.0 and I2C®. Please see the SMBus 2.0 speci-
fication for a detailed description of the differences between
the I2C bus and SMBus.
1.0 Functional Description
The LM95231 is a digital sensor that can sense the tempera-
ture of 3 thermal zones using a sigma-delta analog-to-digital
converter. It can measure its local die temperature and the
temperature of two external transistor junctions using a ∆Vbe
temperature sensing method. The LM95231 can support two
external transistor types, a Pentium 4 processor on 90nm
process thermal diode or a 2N3904 diode connected tran-
sistor. The transistor type is register programmable and does
not require software intervention after initialization. The
LM95231 has an advanced input stage using National Semi-
conductor’s TruTherm technology that reduces the spread in
non-ideality found in Pentium 4 processors on 90nm pro-
cess. Internal analog filtering has been included in the ther-
mal diode input stage thus minimizing the need for external
thermal diode filter capacitors. In addition a digital filter has
been added. These noise immunity improvements in the
analog input stage along with the digital filtering will allow
longer trace tracks or cabling to the thermal diode than
previous thermal diode sensor devices.
The temperature conversion rate is programmable to allow
the user to optimize the current consumption of the LM95231
to the system requirements. The LM95231 can be placed in
shutdown to minimize power consumption when tempera-
ture data is not required. While in shutdown, a 1-shot con-
version mode allows system control of the conversion rate
for ultimate flexibility.
The remote diode temperature resolution is variable and
depends on whether the digital filter is activated. When the
digital filter is active the resolution is thirteen bits and is
programmable to 13-bits unsigned or 12-bits plus sign, with
a least-significant-bit (LSb) weight for both resolutions of
0.03125˚C. When the digital filter is inactive the resolution is
eleven bits and is programmable to 11-bits unsigned or
10-bits plus sign, with a least-significant-bit (LSb) weight for
both resolutions of 0.125˚C. The unsigned resolution allows

1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
the remote diodes to sense temperatures above 127˚C.
Local temperature resolution is not programmable and is
always 9-bits plus sign and has a 0.25˚C LSb.
The LM95231 remote diode temperature accuracy will be
trimmed for the thermal diode of a Pentium 4 processor on
90nm process or a 2N3904 transistor and the accuracy will
be guaranteed only when using either of these diodes when
selected appropriately. TruTherm mode should be enabled
when measuring a Pentium 4 processor on 90nm process
and disabled when measuring a 2N3904 transistor. Enabling
TruTherm mode with a 2N3904 transistor connected may
produce unexpected temperature readings.
Diode fault detection circuitry in the LM95231 can detect the
presence of a remote diode: whether D+ is shorted to VDD
,
D- or ground, or whether D+ is floating.
The LM95231 register set has an 8-bit data structure and
includes:

1.1 CONVERSION SEQUENCE
7. Configuration register set to 00h; continuous conversion,
typical time = 85.8 ms when TruTherm Mode is enabled
for Remote 1 only
In the power up default state the LM95231 takes maximum a
77.5 ms to convert the Local Temperature, Remote Tem-
perature 1 and 2, and to update all of its registers. Only
during the conversion process is the busy bit (D7) in the
Status register (02h) high. These conversions are addressed
in a round robin sequence. The conversion rate may be
modified by the Conversion Rate bits found in the Configu-
ration Register (03h). When the conversion rate is modified a
delay is inserted between conversions, the actual maximum
conversion time remains at 87.7 ms. Different conversion
rates will cause the LM95231 to draw different amounts of
supply current as shown in Figure 1.
1.3 SMBus INTERFACE
The LM95231 operates as a slave on the SMBus, so the
SMBCLK line is an input and the SMBDAT line is bidirec-
tional. The LM95231 never drives the SMBCLK line and it
does not support clock stretching. According to SMBus
specifications, the LM95231 has a 7-bit slave address. All
bits A6 through A0 are internally programmed and can not be
changed by software or hardware. The SMBus slave ad-
dress is dependent on the LM95231 part number ordered:

1.5 SMBDAT OPEN-DRAIN OUTPUT
The SMBDAT output is an open-drain output and does not
have internal pull-ups. A “high” level will not be observed on
this pin 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 without effecting the
SMBus desired data rate. This will minimize any internal
temperature reading errors due to internal heating of the
LM95231. The maximum resistance of the pull-up to provide
a 2.1V high level, based on LM95231 specification for High
Level Output Current with the supply voltage at 3.0V, is 82kΩ
(5%) or 88.7kΩ (1%).

Digital Output
Binary
The LM95231 is equipped with operational circuitry designed
to detect fault conditions concerning the remote diodes. In
the event that the D+ pin is detected as shorted to GND, D−,
VDD or D+ is floating, the Remote Temperature reading is
–128.000 ˚C if signed format is selected and +255.875 if
unsigned format is selected. In addition, the appropriate
status register bits RD1M or RD2M (D1 or D0) are set. When
TruTherm mode is active the condition of diode short of D+
to D− will not be detected. Connecting a 2N3904 transistor
with TruTherm mode active may cause a detection of a diode
fault.

Register will point to one of the Read Temperature Reg-
isters because that will be the data most frequently read
from the LM95231), then the read can simply consist of
an address byte, followed by retrieving the data byte.
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
1.7 COMMUNICATING with the LM95231
The data registers in the LM95231 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 LM95231 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 LM95231 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). When retrieving all 11 bits from a previous remote
diode temperature measurement, the master must insure
that all 11 bits are from the same temperature conversion.
This may be achieved by reading the MSB register first. The
LSB will be locked after the MSB is read. The LSB will be
unlocked after being read. If the user reads MSBs consecu-
tively, each time the MSB is read, the LSB associated with
that temperature will be locked in and override the previous
LSB value locked-in.
1. Read only
2. Write only
3. Write/Read same address
4. Write/Read different address
A Write to the LM95231 will always include the address byte
and the command byte. A write to any register requires one
data byte.
Reading the LM95231 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

2. When SMBDAT is HIGH, have the master initiate an
SMBus start. The LM95231 will respond properly to an
SMBus start condition at any point during the communi-
cation. After the start the LM95231 will expect an SMBus
Address address byte.
1.0 Functional Description (Continued)
1.8 SERIAL INTERFACE RESET
In the event that the SMBus Master is RESET while the
LM95231 is transmitting on the SMBDAT line, the LM95231
must be returned to a known state in the communication
protocol. This may be done in one of two ways:
1.9 ONE-SHOT CONVERSION
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. When SMBDAT is LOW, the LM95231 SMBus state
machine resets to the SMBus idle state if either SMB-
DAT or SMBCLK are held low for more than 35ms
(tTIMEOUT). Note that according to SMBus specification
2.0 all devices are to timeout when either the SMBCLK
or SMBDAT lines are held low for 25-35ms. Therefore, to
insure a timeout of all devices on the bus the SMBCLK
or SMBDAT lines must be held low for at least 35ms.
2.0 LM95231 Registers
Command register selects which registers will be read from or written to. Data for this register should be transmitted during the
Command Byte of the SMBus write communication.

The LM95231 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 be-
cause 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
LM95231’s pins. This presumes that the ambient air tem-
perature 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 tempera-
ture of the LM95231 die will be at an intermediate tempera-
ture 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 tempera-
ture much more strongly than will the air temperature.
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
In the active region, the -1 term is negligible and may be
eliminated, yielding the following equation
(2)
In Equation (2), 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 (IF2/IF1) and
measuring the resulting voltage difference, it is possible to
eliminate the IS term. Solving for the forward voltage differ-
ence yields the relationship:
To measure temperature external to the LM95231’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 LM95231’s temperature. 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. Most silicon diodes do not lend
themselves well to this application. It is recommended that
an MMBT3904 transistor base emitter junction be used with
the collector tied to the base.
(3)
Solving Equation (3) for temperature yields:
The LM95231’s TruTherm technology allows accurate sens-
ing of integrated thermal diodes, such as those found on
processors. With TruTherm technology turned off, the
LM95231 can measure a diode connected transistor such as
the MMBT3904.
(4)
The LM95231 has been optimized to measure the remote
thermal diode integrated in a Pentium 4 processor on 90nm
process or an MMBT3904 transistor. Using the Remote Di-
ode Model Select register either pair of remote inputs can be
assigned to be either a Pentium 4 processor on 90nm pro-
cess or an MMBT3904.
Equation (4) holds true when a diode connected transistor
such as the MMBT3904 is used. When this “diode” equation
is applied to an integrated diode such as a processor tran-
sistor with its collector tied to GND as shown in Figure 3 it
will yield a wide non-ideality spread. This wide non-ideality
spread is not due to true process variation but due to the fact
that Equation (4) is an approximation.
3.1 DIODE NON-IDEALITY
TruTherm technology uses the transistor equation, Equation
(5), which is a more accurate representation of the topology
of the thermal diode found in an FPGA or processor.

When a transistor is connected as a diode, the following
relationship holds for variables VBE, T and IF:

Solving Equation (6) for RPCB equal to +0.264Ω and
−0.088Ω results in the additional error due to the spread in
the series resistance of +0.16˚C to −0.05˚C. The spread in
error cannot be canceled out, as it would require measuring
each individual thermal diode device. This is quite difficult
and impractical in a large volume production environment.
3.1.2 Calculating Total System Accuracy
The voltage seen by the LM95231 also includes the IFRS
voltage drop of the series resistance. The non-ideality factor,
η, is the only other parameter not accounted for and de-
pends 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 tempera-
ture sensor, it will directly add to the inaccuracy of the
sensor. For the Pentium 4 processor on 90nm process, Intel
specifies a +1.19%/−0.27% variation in η from part to part
when the processor diode is measured by a circuit that
assumes diode equation, Equation (4), as true. As an ex-
ample, assume a temperature sensor has an accuracy
specification of 0.75˚C at a temperature of 65 ˚C (338
Kelvin) and the processor diode has a non-ideality variation
of +1.19%/−0.27%. The resulting system accuracy of the
processor temperature being sensed will be:
Equation (6) can also be used to calculate the additional
error caused by series resistance on the printed circuit
board. Since the variation of the PCB series resistance is
minimal, the bulk of the error term is always positive and can
simply be cancelled out by subtracting it from the output
readings of the LM95231.

TrueTherm technology uses the transistor equation, Equa-
tion (5), resulting in a non-ideality spread that truly reflects
the process variation which is very small. The transistor
equation non-ideality spread is 0.1% for the Pentium 4
processor on 90nm process. The resulting accuracy when

The next error term to be discussed is that due to the series
resistance of the thermal diode and printed circuit board
traces. The thermal diode series resistance is specified on
most processor data sheets. For the Pentium 4 processor on
90 nm process, this is specified at 3.33Ω typical. The
LM95231 accommodates the typical series resistance of the
Pentium 4 processor on 90 nm process. The error that is not
accounted for is the spread of the Pentium’s series resis-
tance, that is 3.242Ω to 3.594Ω or +0.264Ω to −0.088Ω. The
equation to calculate the temperature error due to series
resistance (TER) for the LM95231 is simply:

3.1.3 Compensating for Different 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 and series resis-
tance of a given processor type. The LM95231 is calibrated
for two non-ideality factors and series resistance values thus

1. VDD should be bypassed with a 0.1µF capacitor in par-
allel with 100pF. The 100pF capacitor should be placed
as close as possible to the power supply pin. A bulk
capacitance of approximately 10µF needs to be in the
near vicinity of the LM95231.
3.0 Applications Hints (Continued)
supporting the MMBT3904 transistor and the Pentium 4
processor on 90nm process without the requirement for
additional trims. For most accurate measurements TruTherm
mode should be turned on when measuring the Pentium 4
processor on the 90nm process to minimize the error intro-
duced by the false non-ideality spread (see Section 3.1.1
Diode Non-Ideality Factor Effect on Accuracy). When a tem-
perature sensor calibrated for a particular processor type is
used with a different processor type, additional errors are
introduced.
2. A 100pF diode bypass capacitor is recommended to
filter high frequency noise but may not be necessary.
Make sure the traces to the 100pF capacitor are
matched. Place the filter capacitors close to the
LM95231 pins.
3. Ideally, the LM95231 should be placed within 10cm of
the Processor diode pins with the traces being as
straight, short and identical as possible. Trace resis-
tance of 1Ω can cause as much as 0.62˚C of error. This
error can be compensated by using simple software
offset compensation.
Temperature errors associated with non-ideality of different
processor types may be reduced in a specific temperature
range of concern through use of software calibration. Typical
Non-ideality specification differences cause a gain variation
of the transfer function, therefore the center of the tempera-
ture range of interest should be the target temperature for
calibration purposes. The following equation can be used to
calculate the temperature correction factor (TCF) required to
compensate for a target non-ideality differing from that sup-
ported by the LM95231.
4. 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.
TCF = [(ηS−ηProcessor) ÷ ηS] x (TCR+ 273 K)

5. Avoid routing diode traces in close proximity to power
supply switching or filtering inductors.

ηS = LM95231 non-ideality for accuracy specification

6. Avoid running diode traces close to or parallel to high
speed digital and bus lines. Diode traces should be kept
at least 2cm apart from the high speed digital traces.
7. 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.
The correction factor of Equation (7) should be directly
added to the temperature reading produced by the
LM95231. For example when using the LM95231, with the
3904 mode selected, to measure a AMD Athlon processor,
with a typical non-ideality of 1.008, for a temperature range
of 60 ˚C to 100 ˚C the correction factor would calculate to:
8. The ideal place to connect the LM95231’s GND pin is as
close as possible to the Processors GND associated
with the sense diode.
TCF=[(1.003−1.008)÷1.003]x(80+273) =−1.75˚C
9. Leakage current between D+ and GND and between D+
and D− should be kept to a minimum. Thirteen nano-
amperes of leakage can cause as much as 0.2˚C of
error in the diode temperature reading. Keeping the
printed circuit board as clean as possible will minimize
leakage current.
Therefore, 1.75˚C should be subtracted from the tempera-
ture readings of the LM95231 to compensate for the differing
typical non-ideality target.
3.2 PCB LAYOUT FOR MINIMIZING NOISE
Noise coupling into the digital lines greater than 400mVp-p
(typical hysteresis) and undershoot less than 500mV below
GND, may prevent successful SMBus communication with
the LM95231. SMBus no acknowledge is the most common
symptom, causing unnecessary traffic on the bus. Although
the SMBus maximum frequency of communication is rather
low (100kHz 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 3db corner frequency of about 40MHz is included
on the LM95231’s SMBCLK input. Additional resistance can
be added in series with the SMBDAT 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 SMBDAT
and SMBCLK lines.

FIGURE 4. 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 sen-
sor and the LM95231 can cause temperature conversion
errors. Keep in mind that the signal level the LM95231 is
trying to measure is in microvolts. The following guidelines
should be followed:
