DS75LX
Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
with Extended Addressing
www.maxim-ic.com
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This low-voltage (1.7V to 3.7V) digital thermometer
and thermostat provides 9, 10, 11, or 12-bit digital
temperature readings over a -55°C to +125°C range
with
±2°C
accuracy over a -25°C to +100°C range. At
power-up, the DS75LX defaults to 9-bit resolution for
software compatibility with the LM75. Communication
with the DS75LX is achieved through a simple 2-wire
serial interface. Three tri-state address pins allow up
to 27 DS75LX devices to operate on the same 2-wire
bus, which greatly simplifies distributed temperature-
sensing applications.
The DS75LX thermostat has a dedicated open-drain
output (O.S.) and programmable fault tolerance,
which allow the user to define the number of
consecutive error conditions that must occur before
O.S. is activated. There are two thermostatic
operating modes that control thermostat operation
based on user-defined trip-points (T
OS
and T
HYST
).

See the timing diagram (Figure 1). All timing is referenced to 0.9 x V

After this period, the first clock pulse is generated.
The DS75LX provides an internal hold time of at least 75ns on the SDA signal to bridge the undefined region of SCL's falling
edge.
For example, if C

[min] = 50ns.
This timeout applies only when the DS75LX is holding SDA low. Other devices can hold SDA low indefinitely and the DS75LX
will not reset.
The DS75LX is available with timeout feature disabled upon special order. Contact Factory.

OPERATION—MEASURING TEMPERATURE
The DS75LX measures temperature using a bandgap temperature-sensing architecture. An on-board delta-sigma
analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts the measured temperature to a digital value that is calibrated in degrees
celsius; for Fahrenheit applications a lookup table or conversion routine must be used. The DS75LX is factory-
calibrated and requires no external components to measure temperature.
At power-up the DS75LX immediately begins measuring and converting its own temperature to a digital value. The
resolution of the digital output data is user-configurable to 9, 10, 11, or 12 bits, corresponding to temperature
increments of 0.5°C, 0.25°C, 0.125°C, and 0.0625°C, respectively, with 9-bit default resolution at power-up. The
resolution is controlled via the R0 and R1 bits in the configuration register as explained in the
Configuration
Register
section of this data sheet. Note that the conversion time doubles for each additional bit of resolution.
After each temperature measurement and analog-to-digital conversion, the DS75LX stores the temperature as a
16-bit two’s complement number in the 2-byte temperature register (see Figure 2). The sign bit (S) indicates if the
temperature is positive or negative: for positive numbers S = 0 and for negative numbers S = 1. The most recently
converted digital measurement can be read from the temperature register at any time. Since temperature
conversions are performed in the background, reading the temperature register does not affect the operation in
progress.
Bits 3 through 0 of the temperature register are hardwired to 0. When the DS75LX is configured for 12-bit
resolution, the 12 MSbs (bits 15 through 4) of the temperature register contain temperature data. For 11-bit
resolution, the 11 MSbs (bits 15 through 5) of the temperature register contain data, and bit 4 reads out as 0.
Likewise, for 10-bit resolution, the 10 MSbs (bits 15 through 6) contain data, and for 9-bit the 9 MSbs (bits 15
through 7) contain data, and all unused LSbs will contain 0s. Table 1 gives examples of 12-bit resolution digital
output data and the corresponding temperatures.
