Product details
Overview
LM82CIMQAX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a dual-sensing digital temperature monitor IC with local die and remote diode junction measurement capability, 7-bit + sign temperature data format (1°C resolution), SMBus/I²C-compatible two-wire interface, and dual open-drain interrupt outputs (INT and T_CRIT_A) for thermal event signaling in embedded computing and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB datasheet, LM82CIMQAX/NOPB pinout, LM82CIMQAX/NOPB application, or LM82CIMQAX/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, pin-level design meaning, real-world thermal management use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in TI's SNIS113D specification and official package documentation.
Technical Context
The LM82CIMQAX/NOPB integrates a Delta-Sigma ADC to convert both on-chip bandgap voltage (local temperature) and forward voltage drop across an external diode (remote junction) into 8-bit two's complement digital values. It performs sequential conversions - local first, then remote - completing both in ≤600 ms.
Its SMBus 1.1-compliant interface supports timeout recovery (25–40 ms low-time reset), tri-level address selection (ADD0/ADD1), and register-level access to 13 dedicated registers including dual HIGH limit comparators (LHS/RHS), critical threshold (T_CRIT), status flags, and configuration bits for INT/T_CRIT_A masking and polarity inversion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - defines strict low-voltage operation; requires stable LDO or filtered rail; out-of-range supply disables conversion and resets interface. |
| Local Temp Accuracy | ±3.0°C max (0°C to +85°C) - determines precision of PCB or ambient thermal monitoring without calibration. |
| Remote Diode Accuracy | ±3°C max (+25°C to +100°C); ±4°C max (0°C to +125°C) - sets error budget for CPU/GPU die temperature tracking using discrete or integrated diodes. |
| Conversion Time | ≤600 ms per full cycle (local + remote) - establishes minimum polling interval for real-time thermal response in fan control or shutdown logic. |
| SMBus Clock Frequency | 10 kHz to 100 kHz - constrains host controller timing; compatible with standard microcontroller GPIO-based bit-banging or hardware SMBus peripherals. |
| Interrupt Outputs | Two open-drain outputs (INT, T_CRIT_A) - enable independent alarm routing: INT for per-sensor HIGH thresholds, T_CRIT_A for system-critical over-temperature events. |
| Address Selection | 2 tri-state pins (ADD0, ADD1) - allow up to 9 unique SMBus addresses on one bus, supporting multi-zone thermal monitoring without address conflict. |
Pinout & Package
LM82CIMQAX/NOPB is housed in a 16-pin SSOP (DBQ) package with 0.65 mm pitch and exposed thermal pad. Pin assignments are validated per TI SNIS113D Figure 1 and PIN DESCRIPTIONS table.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC (Pin 2) | Positive supply input | Must be regulated 3.0–3.6 V; powers internal ADC, logic, and diode bias circuitry; undershoot below 2.3 V triggers power-on reset. |
| GND (Pins 7, 8) | Power return path | Dual ground pins reduce impedance; must connect to low-noise analog/digital ground plane to minimize self-heating error. |
| D+ (Pin 3) | Diode current source | Drives 5–125 µA into remote diode anode; floating when unused; short-to-VCC causes +127°C fault indication. |
| D− (Pin 4) | Diode return sink | Completes remote diode current path; must float if D+ unused; voltage at D− must stay within −0.3 V to (VCC + 0.3 V). |
| ADD0 / ADD1 (Pins 10, 6) | SMBus address select inputs | Tri-level (GND/VCC/floating) configuration sets 7-bit slave address; latched on first SMBus transaction; enables 9-device daisy-chain. |
| SMBData (Pin 12) | Bi-directional serial data line | Open-drain; requires external pull-up (≤30 kΩ); supports SMBus read/write protocols and timeout recovery. |
| SMBCLK (Pin 14) | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock; accepts 10–100 kHz; low-time >40 ms forces interface reset to IDLE state. |
| INT (Pin 11) | Programmable interrupt output | Asserts when local or remote temp exceeds respective T_HIGH; maskable/configurable active-high/low; open-drain. |
| T_CRIT_A (Pin 16) | Critical temperature alarm | Asserts if *any* sensed temperature exceeds T_CRIT; masked per sensor via config register; open-drain with 3 mA sink capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Local + remote dual sensing | Enables simultaneous monitoring of system board temperature (via LM82 die) and processor die temperature (via CPU-integrated diode), eliminating need for separate sensors. |
| Two independent interrupt outputs | Allows hierarchical thermal response: INT for warning-level throttling (e.g., fan ramp-up), T_CRIT_A for immediate shutdown or reset initiation. |
| Tri-level address selection | Supports up to 9 LM82CIMQAX/NOPB devices on one SMBus without external multiplexers - ideal for multi-board or multi-CPU server thermal management. |
| Diode fault detection | Automatically identifies open-circuit (D+ floating → +127°C + OPEN flag) or short-circuit (D+ to GND → 0°C) conditions before each conversion, preventing false alarms. |
| SMBus timeout recovery | Resets serial interface if SMBData/SMBCLK held low ≥25 ms - prevents bus lockup during host reset or firmware crash without requiring hardware reset. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-sensing digital temperature monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM84CIMQX/NOPB | Pin-for-pin and register-compatible; adds extended remote diode accuracy (±2°C over +25°C to +100°C) and improved SMBus timing margins. | Better suited for high-precision CPU thermal management where tighter remote sensing tolerance is required. | Select LM84CIMQX/NOPB when upgrading from LM82CIMQAX/NOPB for enhanced remote diode accuracy without layout change. |
| MAX6657ESA+ | Single-supply 3.0–5.5 V operation; local-only sensing; no remote diode interface; different register map and SMBus address scheme. | Limited to ambient/PCB temperature monitoring; lacks remote junction capability needed for processor die sensing. | Choose MAX6657ESA+ only for cost-sensitive, local-only applications where remote diode functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with LM82CIMQAX/NOPB, LM84CIMQX/NOPB offers measurable improvement in remote diode accuracy without sacrificing compatibility, while MAX6657ESA+ trades remote sensing capability for wider supply range and lower unit cost - making it a functional but not drop-in alternative.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB?
The LM82CIMQAX/NOPB operates across −40°C to +125°C, with specified local temperature accuracy of ±3.0°C (0°C to +85°C) and remote diode accuracy of ±3°C (+25°C to +100°C). Its extended range supports deployment in harsh environments such as industrial control cabinets and telecom base stations where ambient extremes occur.
Does the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB require external components for basic operation?
Yes - LM82CIMQAX/NOPB requires external pull-up resistors on SMBData and SMBCLK (typically 4.7 kΩ), plus optional pull-ups on INT and T_CRIT_A outputs. No external passive components are needed for temperature sensing itself, as the internal diode bias current source and Delta-Sigma ADC are fully integrated.
How does the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB detect remote diode faults?
The LM82CIMQAX/NOPB performs automatic diode fault detection before each remote conversion: an open-circuit diode (D+ floating) returns +127°C and sets the OPEN bit in the Status Register; a shorted D+ (to GND or D−) yields 0°C without setting OPEN. This enables robust system-level diagnostics without host software intervention.
Can multiple LM82CIMQAX/NOPB devices share the same SMBus?
Yes - LM82CIMQAX/NOPB supports up to 9 devices on one SMBus via tri-level ADD0/ADD1 pins (GND/VCC/floating), generating unique 7-bit slave addresses. Address latching occurs on the first SMBus transaction, ensuring stable multi-device operation without runtime reconfiguration.
What happens to the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB during an SMBus communication timeout?
If SMBData or SMBCLK remains low for ≥25 ms, the LM82CIMQAX/NOPB resets its serial interface to the IDLE state (both lines high), clearing pending transactions. This built-in timeout recovery prevents bus lockup during host resets or firmware hangs - a key reliability feature confirmed in TI's SNIS113D specification.
