limits, stored in eight on-chip registers. Out-of-limit
comparisons generate flags that are stored in the status register.
A result that exceeds the high temperature limit, the low
temperature limit, or an external diode fault causes the ALERT
output to assert low. Exceeding THERM temperature limits
causes the THERM output to assert low. The ALERT output
can be reprogrammed as a second THERM output.

Series Resistance Cancellation
ADT7461, seen in series with the remote diode, is caused by
a variety of factors, including PCB track resistance and track
length. This series resistance appears as a temperature offset
in the remote sensor’s temperature measurement. This error
typically causes a 0.5°C offset per ohm of parasitic resistance
in series with the remote diode.
series resistance on the temperature reading, giving a more
accurate result, without the need for user characterization of
this resistance. The ADT7461 is designed to automatically
cancel typically up to 3 kW of resistance. By using an
advanced temperature measurement method, this is
transparent to the user. This feature allows resistances to be
added to the sensor path to produce a filter, allowing the part
to be used in noisy environments. See the Noise Filtering
section for more details.

figure shows the external sensor as a substrate transistor, but
it could equally be a discrete transistor. If a discrete
transistor is used, the collector will not be grounded and
should be linked to the base. To prevent ground noise
interfering with the measurement, the more negative
terminal of the sensor is not referenced to ground, but is
biased above ground by an internal diode at the D− input. C1
may be added as a noise filter (a recommended maximum
value of 1,000 pF). However, a better option in noisy
environments is to add a filter, as described in the Noise
Filtering section. See the Layout Considerations section for
