12-Bit + Sign Temperature Sensor with
SPI-Compatible Serial Interface
(V
The MAX6662 continuously converts its die tempera-
ture into a digital value using its integrated ADC.
Temperature data is updated twice a second. The
resulting data is readable at any time through the SPI-
compatible serial interface.
Figure 1 shows the simplified functional diagram of the
MAX6662. Its internal current sources force 100µA and
10µA currents through a diode (diode-connected tran-
sistor), while the integrating ADC measures the voltage
difference. The difference in voltage corresponds to the
die temperature. The result is stored in the Temperature
register. The control logic unit compares the tempera-
ture and the temperature limit settings stored in the reg-
isters to determine whether a fault condition has
occurred.

The ALERT is an open-drain active-low (default, also
programmable active-high) output used to alert the sys-
tem to temperature faults. ALERT can be programmed
to operate in either one of two modes: comparator or
interrupt mode.
In the interrupt mode, the MAX6662 ALERT pin asserts
an alarm for an undertemperature (T

(even if Temperature is still out of limits) by reading the
temperature register. ALERT only asserts again if the
temperature crosses the hysteresis, thereby corre-
