Datasheet Summary
Micrel
Three-Zone Thermal Supervisor Advance Information
General Description
The MIC384 is a versatile digital thermal supervisor capable of measuring temperature using its own internal sensor and two inexpensive external sensors or embedded silicon diodes such as those found in the Intel Pentium III- CPU. A 2wire serial interface is provided to allow munication with either I2C-
- or SMBus- masters. The open-drain interrupt output pin can be used as either an over-temperature alarm or a thermostatic control signal. Interrupt mask and status bits are provided for reduced software overhead. Fault queues prevent nuisance tripping due to thermal or electrical noise. A...
