LM75
Digital Temperature Sensor and Thermal Watchdog with
Two-Wire Interface
General Description
The LM75 is a temperature sensor, Delta-Sigma analog-to-
digital converter, and digital over-temperature detector with
I
2
C
庐
interface. The host can query the LM75 at any time to
read temperature. The open-drain Overtemperature Shut-
down (O.S.) output becomes active when the temperature
exceeds a programmable limit. This pin can operate in either
鈥淐omparator鈥?or 鈥淚nterrupt鈥?mode.
The host can program both the temperature alarm threshold
(T
OS
) and the temperature at which the alarm condition goes
away (T
HYST
). In addition, the host can read back the con-
tents of the LM75鈥檚 T
OS
and T
HYST
registers. Three pins (A0,
A1, A2) are available for address selection. The sensor
powers up in Comparator mode with default thresholds of
80藲C T
OS
and 75藲C T
HYST
.
The LM75鈥檚 3.0V to 5.5V supply voltage range, low supply
current and I
2
C interface make it ideal for a wide range of
applications. These include thermal management and pro-
tection applications in personal computers, electronic test
equipment, and office electronics.
