Product details
Overview
LM95213CISDX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with SMBus 2.0 interface, monitoring local die temperature and two remote diode junctions (e.g., microprocessor or GPU thermal diodes) with ±2.0°C local and ±1.1°C remote accuracy over −40°C to +125°C. It delivers 0.125°C local resolution and 0.03125°C remote resolution with digital filtering enabled, and drives three open-drain TCRIT outputs for thermal shutdown or fan control in laptop and server thermal management systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM95213CISDX/NOPB datasheet, LM95213CISDX/NOPB pinout, LM95213CISDX/NOPB application, or LM95213CISDX/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed remote diode calibration capability, real-world SMBus timing compliance, and documented TCRIT hysteresis behavior - all specific to the LM95213CISDX/NOPB WSON-14 package.
Technical Context
The LM95213CISDX/NOPB implements a sigma-delta ADC core with programmable digital filters per remote channel, enabling noise-immune 13-bit remote temperature conversion (0.03125°C LSB) when filters are active. Its dual-diode sensing architecture supports independent offset correction registers for D1+ and D2+, allowing accurate calibration with non-MM3904 diodes such as processor-integrated thermal diodes.
Three TCRIT outputs (TCRIT1–TCRIT3) share a programmable hysteresis register but support individual masking and limit assignment across local and remote channels; TCRIT1 defaults to +110°C on local/remote 1/2, while TCRIT2/TCRIT3 default to +85°C with independent mask control. The device uses a three-level A0 address pin to support up to three units on one SMBus segment without collision.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (Pin 2) | Positive supply input | Must be bypassed with 0.1 µF + 100 pF capacitors; noise <200 mVp-p; powers internal analog/digital blocks |
| GND (Pin 8) | Power ground reference | Low-noise return path for diode current sources and ADC reference; connects to system ground plane |
| D− (Pin 5) | Common diode cathode sink | Shared return for both remote diodes; must connect to cathodes of D1+ and D2+ diodes |
| D1+ (Pin 7) | Remote diode 1 anode current source | Drives bias current into first external thermal diode (e.g., CPU die); float if unused |
| D2+ (Pin 6) | Remote diode 2 anode current source | Drives bias current into second thermal diode (e.g., GPU or VRM controller); float if unused |
| SMBCLK (Pin 13) | SMBus clock input | Asynchronous master-controlled timing signal; requires external pull-up; no clock stretching supported |
| SMBDAT (Pin 12) | SMBus bidirectional data line | Open-drain I/O; requires external pull-up; transmits temperature values, status, and configuration registers |
| TCRIT1–TCRIT3 (Pins 4, 10, 14) | Active-low critical temperature outputs | Open-drain outputs triggered by unmasked channel limit exceedance; require pull-up resistors; drive fan enable or MCU interrupt lines |
| A0 (Pin 9) | SMBus slave address select | Three-state input (GND/mid/VDD) sets address to 18h/2Ah/2Bh - enables multi-drop SMBus topology |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LM95213CISDX/NOPB?
The LM95213CISDX/NOPB operates from −40°C to +140°C ambient, with guaranteed electrical performance over −40°C to +125°C. Its local temperature sensor is specified for ±2.0°C accuracy across that full range, and remote diode accuracy holds ±1.1°C from +25°C to +85°C using an MMBT3904 diode. This makes LM95213CISDX/NOPB suitable for demanding thermal environments in laptops, servers, and industrial controllers.
Does the LM95213CISDX/NOPB support SMBus 2.0 timeout functionality?
Yes, the LM95213CISDX/NOPB fully complies with SMBus 2.0 specifications, including timeout detection: holding SMBDAT or SMBCLK low for longer than 25 ms (min) resets the internal state machine and places SMBDAT in high-impedance mode. This feature ensures robust bus recovery after communication faults - a key reliability requirement in mission-critical thermal management systems using LM95213CISDX/NOPB.
How does the digital filter affect remote temperature resolution in the LM95213CISDX/NOPB?
When the digital filter is enabled on either remote channel, the LM95213CISDX/NOPB increases remote temperature resolution from 0.125°C (11-bit) to 0.03125°C (13-bit), while also suppressing transient noise that could falsely trigger TCRIT outputs. This enhanced resolution is achieved without external components and is reflected in the temperature value registers - a verified behavior documented in the LM95213CISDX/NOPB datasheet Figure 7 and Table 4.
Can the LM95213CISDX/NOPB measure temperature using diodes other than MMBT3904?
Yes, the LM95213CISDX/NOPB includes dedicated offset correction registers for both D1+ and D2+ channels, enabling calibration for non-ideal diodes such as integrated thermal junctions in CPUs, GPUs, or PMICs. The datasheet confirms this capability under "Offset Correction" and "Diode Non-Ideality" sections, and specifies accuracy limits apply only when using MMBT3904 - meaning LM95213CISDX/NOPB supports broader diode compatibility via software calibration.
What is the function of the A0 pin on the LM95213CISDX/NOPB?
The A0 pin on the LM95213CISDX/NOPB is a three-state digital input that selects one of three SMBus slave addresses: 18h (A0 = GND), 2Ah (A0 = mid-supply), or 2Bh (A0 = VDD). This allows up to three LM95213CISDX/NOPB devices to coexist on the same SMBus segment without address conflict - a verified feature used in multi-processor thermal architectures and confirmed in the LM95213CISDX/NOPB pin description table and functional description section.
