Product details
Overview
TMP411BDGKT from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel ±1°C accurate remote/local temperature sensor IC with I²C/SMBus interface, programmable 9–12-bit resolution, series resistance cancellation, and N-factor correction - designed for precision thermal monitoring in rack server motherboards and FPGA subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the TMP411BDGKT datasheet, TMP411BDGKT pinout, TMP411BDGKT application, or TMP411BDGKT equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated package mapping (VSSOP-8), confirmed SMBus timing compliance, and real-world calibration features including offset registers and diode fault detection.
Technical Context
The TMP411BDGKT integrates a local thermal transistor and supports remote sensing via external diode-connected transistors (e.g., 2N3906 PNP), with dedicated D+ and D− inputs. Its on-chip ADC digitizes both channels using a shared 12-bit conversion engine, while programmable resolution (9–12 bits) and configurable conversion rate (0.0625–8 Hz) enable trade-offs between accuracy and power.
It implements series resistance cancellation logic to compensate for PCB trace resistance up to 3 kΩ, and supports user-defined non-ideality factor (η = 1.008 typical) for improved remote diode modeling across manufacturers. The ALERT/THERM2 pin provides open-drain overtemperature signaling with hysteresis control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Local Accuracy | ±1°C over –40°C to +125°C ambient; enables direct thermal throttling decisions without system-level calibration. |
| Remote Accuracy | ±1°C over –40°C to +100°C diode temperature; validated for microprocessor/FPGA die-sense applications using standard NPN/PNP transistors. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V system rails without level-shifting. |
| Interface | I²C/SMBus compliant; supports 3.4 MHz high-speed mode and 25–35 ms timeout - interoperable with standard host controllers. |
| Resolution | Programmable 9–12 bits (local), fixed 12 bits (remote); 12-bit mode yields 0.0625°C LSB for fine-grained thermal profiling. |
| Power Consumption | 28 µA avg at 0.0625 Hz conversion (3.3 V); enables always-on thermal monitoring in power-constrained embedded systems. |
| Operating Range | –40°C to +125°C ambient; qualified for industrial and enterprise computing environments. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 package (3.0 mm × 4.9 mm × 1.1 mm), thin-profile surface-mount design optimized for high-density PCB layouts in server and networking equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Power supply input | Positive rail (2.7–5.5 V); powers internal regulator, ADC, and digital logic - requires local 0.1 µF decoupling. |
| D+ | Analog remote sensor input | Positive terminal for remote diode/transistor; biased with internal current source (120 µA high range). |
| D− | Analog remote sensor input | Negative terminal for remote diode/transistor; used with D+ to reject common-mode noise and series resistance error. |
| THERM | Digital output | Open-drain thermal alert flag (active low); asserts when local or remote temperature exceeds THERM limit register value. |
| GND | Ground reference | Analog and digital ground return; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane to minimize measurement error. |
| ALERT/THERM2 | Configurable digital output | Reprogrammable second alert output (open-drain); supports independent remote or local threshold triggering. |
| SDA | Bidirectional data line | I²C/SMBus serial data; requires external pull-up to V+; supports multi-master arbitration and clock stretching. |
| SCL | Input clock line | I²C/SMBus serial clock; open-drain input with internal pull-down; synchronizes all register reads/writes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Series Resistance Cancellation | Compensates for up to 3 kΩ of PCB trace resistance between D+ and D−, eliminating measurement offset in long-trace remote sensing. |
| Programmable N-Factor | Adjusts ideality factor (η) from 1.001 to 1.015 to match specific remote transistor characteristics - improves accuracy across silicon process variations. |
| User Offset Registers | Two 8-bit signed offset registers (local and remote) allow per-unit calibration to correct for board-level thermal gradients and sensor placement errors. |
| Diode Fault Detection | Automatically identifies open-circuit, short-circuit, and reversed diode conditions on D+/D− lines - prevents false thermal shutdowns. |
| Multiple I²C Addresses | Four selectable addresses (0x4C, 0x4D, 0x4E, 0x4F) enable up to four TMP411BDGKT devices on a single bus without address conflict. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar remote/local temperature sensor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TMP411ADGKT | Same VSSOP-8 package and electrical specs; differs only in I²C address (0x4C vs 0x4D) - no functional or performance variance. | Identical use cases; selected when 0x4C address conflicts with other SMBus devices on the same bus. | Drop-in replacement if board layout uses 0x4C-compatible firmware; verify I²C address configuration in initialization code. |

FAQ
What is the remote temperature accuracy specification for TMP411BDGKT over its full operating range?
The TMP411BDGKT achieves ±1°C remote temperature accuracy over –40°C to +100°C diode temperature (TDIODE) at V+ = 3.3 V. At extended ranges (–40°C to +125°C), accuracy degrades to ±3°C due to diode non-ideality and series resistance effects - a condition mitigated by the device's built-in series resistance cancellation and programmable N-factor correction features. This specification is validated across multiple transistor manufacturers and does not require per-unit calibration.
Does TMP411BDGKT support operation below 2.7 V supply voltage?
No, TMP411BDGKT requires a minimum supply voltage of 2.7 V and is rated for operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operation below 2.7 V may cause undervoltage lockout activation or unpredictable behavior. For sub-2.7 V applications, consider the TMP411D variant (e.g., TMP411DDDFR), which supports 1.62 V to 5.5 V operation and shares identical functionality except for supply range and package (SOT-23-8).
How does the series resistance cancellation feature work in TMP411BDGKT?
The TMP411BDGKT implements hardware-based series resistance cancellation by measuring voltage drop across both D+ and D− lines using dual current sources, then digitally subtracting the parasitic IR drop before computing temperature. It supports up to 3 kΩ of total series resistance - critical for accurate remote sensing over long PCB traces or flex cables. This function operates automatically and does not require external components or firmware intervention.
Can TMP411BDGKT be used with diode-connected MOSFETs or only bipolar transistors?
TMP411BDGKT is characterized and specified for use with diode-connected NPN or PNP bipolar transistors (e.g., 2N3906), not MOSFETs. Its internal current sources and N-factor correction algorithm assume bipolar junction behavior. While some MOSFET body diodes may yield usable readings, TI does not guarantee accuracy or specify parameters for MOSFET-based remote sensing - use only bipolar transistors or integrated diodes as documented in the TMP411BDGKT datasheet.
What is the conversion time for TMP411BDGKT in one-shot mode with both local and remote channels enabled?
In one-shot mode with both local and remote channels active, TMP411BDGKT requires 115 ms (typical) for full conversion at V+ = 3.3 V. This includes sequential sampling, ADC conversion, and internal compensation calculation. The device supports programmable conversion rates from 0.0625 Hz to 8 Hz, with corresponding current consumption scaling from 28 µA to 475 µA - enabling optimization for either ultra-low-power monitoring or rapid thermal response.
