Product details
Overview
TMP411ADR from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel ±1°C accurate remote/local temperature sensor IC with I²C/SMBus interface, programmable 9–12-bit resolution, and integrated series resistance cancellation for diode-connected transistor sensing. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V across –40°C to +125°C and is used in rack server motherboard thermal monitoring where precision local + remote die temperature tracking is required.
For engineers reviewing the TMP411ADR datasheet, TMP411ADR pinout, TMP411ADR application, or TMP411ADR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping (VSSOP-8), SMBus timing compliance, diode fault detection capability, and real-world calibration features including N-factor correction and offset registers - all confirmed for the TMP411ADR variant.
Technical Context
The TMP411ADR implements a two-wire SMBus-compatible interface supporting write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive byte commands for configuration and temperature reading. Its analog front-end includes dedicated D+ and D– inputs for remote diode sensing, with built-in series resistance cancellation and programmable non-ideality factor (η = 1.008) to correct for transistor imperfections.
It integrates separate local thermal transistor and remote diode measurement paths, both with independent programmable resolution (9–12 bits local, fixed 12-bit remote), alert/therm output pins, and register-based threshold monitoring. The device supports multiple I²C addresses (A/B/C/E variants) and maintains pin/register compatibility with ADT7461 and ADM1032 for drop-in migration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Local Accuracy | ±1°C over 15°C to 85°C at V+ = 3.3V - enables reliable CPU/GPU junction temperature estimation without system-level calibration. |
| Remote Accuracy | ±1°C over –40°C to +100°C (TDIODE) - ensures precise thermal feedback from embedded processor diodes under industrial ambient conditions. |
| Supply Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - compatible with standard 3.3V and 5V system rails, eliminating need for auxiliary LDOs in server or NIC designs. |
| Interface | I²C/SMBus up to 3.4 MHz - supports high-speed polling in dense multi-sensor thermal management systems with minimal bus overhead. |
| Resolution | Programmable 9–12-bit local, fixed 12-bit remote - allows trade-off between conversion time (115 ms typical) and thermal resolution (0.0625°C LSB). |
| Package | VSSOP-8 (3.0 mm × 4.9 mm) - surface-mount footprint optimized for space-constrained server motherboard layouts near processors and memory. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C ambient - validated for continuous operation in enterprise compute environments with high power density and airflow constraints. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 package (TI designation DGK), 3.0 mm × 4.9 mm × 1.1 mm body, exposed pad not present, RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Power supply input | Positive rail (2.7V–5.5V); powers internal ADC, digital logic, and remote sensor bias current source. |
| D+ | Analog remote sensor input | Positive terminal of external diode-connected transistor; accepts current-driven remote temperature signal. |
| D– | Analog remote sensor input | Negative terminal of external diode; completes remote sensing path and enables series resistance cancellation. |
| THERM | Digital output | Open-drain thermal alert flag (active low); configurable as hardware shutdown trigger for critical overtemperature events. |
| GND | Ground reference | Analog and digital common return; must be low-impedance connection to minimize measurement noise coupling. |
| ALERT/THERM2 | Digital output | Reconfigurable open-drain alert output; provides second independent thermal event signal or general-purpose interrupt. |
| SDA | Bidirectional data line | SMBus/I²C serial data; requires external pull-up to V+; supports multi-master arbitration and clock stretching. |
| SCL | Digital input | SMBus/I²C serial clock; open-drain input requiring external pull-up; defines timing for all bus transactions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Series Resistance Cancellation | Compensates for PCB trace resistance up to 3 kΩ on D+/D– lines, preserving ±1°C remote accuracy without layout constraints. |
| Programmable N-Factor | Adjusts ideality factor (η) to match specific diode characteristics (default η = 1.008), correcting for process variation in embedded transistors. |
| User-Defined Offset Register | Enables per-unit system-level calibration to eliminate board-level thermal gradients and sensor-to-sensor mismatch. |
| Diode Fault Detection | Automatically identifies open-circuit, short-circuit, or reversed diode connections - prevents false temperature reporting in field deployments. |
| Programmable Threshold Limits | Configurable high/low limits per channel with status flag and ALERT/THERM2 assertion - enables autonomous thermal throttling without host intervention. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar remote/local temperature sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADT7461A | Pin- and register-compatible; identical VSSOP-8 footprint and SMBus protocol; ±2.5°C local accuracy (worse than TMP411ADR's ±1°C). | Lower accuracy limits use in high-precision thermal closed-loop control; suitable for cost-sensitive legacy designs where ±2.5°C is acceptable. | Select ADT7461A only if existing firmware relies on its specific revision ID or if long-term ADI supply continuity is prioritized over accuracy. |
| TMP451 | Narrower supply range (1.7V–3.6V); ±2°C local accuracy; SOT-23-8 package (2.9 mm × 2.8 mm); lower quiescent current (1.5 µA avg @ 0.0625Hz). | Optimized for battery-powered or ultra-low-power applications; incompatible with 5V systems and lacks VSSOP-8 mechanical fit. | Choose TMP451 only for portable/embedded designs requiring sub-2 µA average current and 1.7V operation - not a drop-in replacement for TMP411ADR. |
Compared with ADT7461A and TMP451, the TMP411ADR delivers superior ±1°C local/remote accuracy in a VSSOP-8 package with full 2.7V–5.5V support, making it optimal for enterprise server and infrastructure thermal management where precision and 5V compatibility are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum remote temperature measurement range supported by the TMP411ADR?
The TMP411ADR supports remote temperature measurement from –40°C to +150°C at the diode sensor (TDIODE), validated across its full operating ambient range of –40°C to +125°C. This extended range enables reliable thermal monitoring of high-power components such as RF amplifiers and GPU cores where junction temperatures exceed 100°C.
Does the TMP411ADR require external calibration to achieve ±1°C accuracy?
No, the TMP411ADR achieves ±1°C local and remote accuracy over 15°C to 85°C without system-level calibration. Its on-chip series resistance cancellation, programmable N-factor (η = 1.008), and factory-trimmed offset registers eliminate the need for external calibration - though user-defined offset registers allow optional fine-tuning for board-specific thermal gradients.
Can the TMP411ADR operate from a 1.8V supply rail?
No, the TMP411ADR requires a minimum supply voltage of 2.7V and is not rated for 1.8V operation. For 1.8V-compatible alternatives, consider the TMP411D variant (1.62V–5.5V) or TMP451 (1.7V–3.6V), but note these differ in package, accuracy, and register compatibility - neither is a direct substitute for the TMP411ADR.
How does the TMP411ADR handle diode connection faults?
The TMP411ADR includes integrated diode fault detection that identifies open-circuit, short-circuit, and reversed diode conditions on the D+/D– inputs. When detected, it sets the Diode Fault bit in the Status Register and disables remote temperature reporting - preventing erroneous thermal decisions in mission-critical systems like rack servers and base stations.
Is the TMP411ADR pin-compatible with the ADT7461 and ADM1032?
Yes, the TMP411ADR is explicitly designed for pin and register compatibility with ADT7461 and ADM1032 devices in VSSOP-8 and SOIC-8 packages. This enables direct hardware replacement and firmware reuse in legacy thermal management designs, provided the ±1°C accuracy and 2.7V–5.5V supply requirements align with system specifications.
