19-3306; Rev 0; 5/04 www.DataSheet4U.com 2-Channel Temperature Monitor with Dual Automatic PWM Fan-Speed Controller and Five GPIOs General Description The MAX6678 monitors its own temperature and the temperatures of two external diode-connected transistors, which typically reside on the die of a CPU or other integrated circuit. The device reports temperature values in digital form using a 2-wire serial interface. The MAX6678 provides a programmable alarm output to generate interrupts, throttle signals, or overtemperature shutdown signals. The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard System Management Bus (SMBus)™ write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte commands to read the temperature data and program the alarm thresholds.
