MAX6581 Datasheet 8-channel Temperature Sensor

Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices)

Overview: EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE Click here for production status of specific part numbers.

General Description

The MAX6581 precision multichannel temperature sensor monitors its own temperature and the temperatures of up to seven external diode-connected transistors.

All temperature channels have programmable alert and overtemperature thresholds.

When the measured temperature of a channel crosses the respective threshold, a status bit is set in one of the status registers.

Key Features

  • Eight Channels to Measure Seven Remote and One Local Temperature.
  • 11-Bit, 0.125°C Resolution.
  • High Accuracy of ±1°C (max) from +60°C to +100°C (Remote Channels).
  • -64°C to +150°C Remote Temperature Range.
  • Programmable Undertemperature/Overtemperature Alerts.
  • SMBus/I2C-Compatible Interface.
  • Two Open-Drain Alarm Outputs (ALERT and OVERT).
  • Resistance Cancellation on All Remote Channels.
