MIC281 Overview
The MIC281 is a digital thermal sensor capable of measuring the temperature of a remote PN junction. It is optimized for applications favoring low cost and small size. The remote junction may be an inexpensive modity transistor, e.g., 2N3906, or an embedded thermal diode such as found in Intel Pentium® II/III/IV CPUs, AMD Athlon® CPUs, and Xilinx Virtex® FPGAs.
