Product details
Overview
TMP513AID from Texas Instruments is a triple-channel temperature and high-side current/power monitor IC integrating one local diode sensor, three remote diode sensor channels (DXP1/DXN1, DXP2/DXN2, DXP3/DXN3), a 12-bit ADC, series resistance cancellation, and SMBus-compatible two-wire interface - delivering ±1°C remote and ±1°C local temperature accuracy, 1% max current/voltage/power measurement error over temperature, and bus voltage sensing from 0V to +26V for server power rail monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the TMP513AID datasheet, TMP513AID pinout, TMP513AID application, or TMP513AID equivalent, this page provides verified functional specifications, SO-16 package mapping, confirmed pin roles (including ALERT, GPIO, SDA/SCL, VIN+/VIN−, and all six remote sensor terminals), and validated alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The TMP513AID implements a dedicated 12-bit successive-approximation ADC with programmable PGA (÷1/÷2/÷4/÷8) and dual-range bus voltage scaling (0–16V / 0–32V), enabling direct readout of shunt current in amps and power in watts via internal digital multiplication. Its remote sensing architecture uses sequential current excitation and n-factor correction (default 1.008) to compute junction temperature from VBE differentials across external diode-connected transistors.
It features three independent subregulator configurations: Configuration 1 (V+ = 4.5–26V, Filter C = 3.3V, bus range 4.5–26V), Configuration 2 (V+ = 4.5–26V, bus range 0–26V), and Configuration 3 (V+ = 3–5.5V, Filter C = V+, bus range 0–26V). All modes support series resistance cancellation up to 3 kΩ and differential capacitance tolerance up to 2200 pF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 4 (VIN−) | High-side shunt negative sense | Connects to shunt resistor's source-side terminal; common-mode voltage range: –0.3V to +26V. |
| 5 (SDA) | SMBus data line | Open-drain, requires external pull-up; supports bidirectional register reads/writes and alert signaling. |
| 6 (SCL) | SMBus clock line | Open-drain, requires external pull-up; defines timing for all serial transactions including watchdog updates. |
| 7 (A0) | I²C/SMBus address select | Ground/V+/SDA/SCL sets one of four unique slave addresses (1011100–1011111), enabling up to four devices on same bus. |
| 8 (DXP1) | Channel 1 remote sensor + | Drives excitation current into base-emitter junction of first external diode-connected transistor (e.g., 2N3906). |
| 9 (DXN1) | Channel 1 remote sensor − | Completes remote channel 1 current path; used with DXP1 to measure VBE1 differential. |
| 10 (DXP2) | Channel 2 remote sensor + | Independent excitation path for second remote sensor; supports simultaneous multi-die thermal profiling. |

| 14 (GPIO) | General-purpose I/O | Totem-pole output; configurable as input or output via register control; default state is high-impedance input. |
| 15 (ALERT) | Open-drain interrupt output | Asserts low when any programmed limit (temp, current, voltage, power) is exceeded; maskable per channel via Alert Mask Register. |
| 16 (GND) | Analog/digital ground | Single ground reference for all analog sensing, digital logic, and subregulator return; must be low-impedance PCB plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple remote + local temperature sensing | Enables simultaneous thermal monitoring of CPU, memory, and VRM with one IC - eliminating need for discrete sensors and reducing BOM count by ≥3 components. |
| Series resistance cancellation (≤3 kΩ) | Compensates for PCB trace resistance between IC and remote diodes without software calibration - maintains ±1°C accuracy even with long sensor traces. |
| Programmable n-factor correction | Allows fine-tuning of remote channel ideality factor (default 1.008) via registers 16h–18h to match specific transistor characteristics (e.g., 2N3904 vs 2N3906). |
| Dual-range bus voltage measurement | BRNG bit selects 0–16V or 0–32V full-scale range - preserves 4 mV LSB resolution across both ranges for precise rail voltage tracking. |
| Integrated watchdog comparators | Separate upper-over-limit and lower-under-limit thresholds per monitored parameter - triggers ALERT output and latches status for system-level fault response. |
| Three subregulator configurations | Supports flexible power architecture: Config 1 (high-voltage bus, regulated 3.3V), Config 2 (full 0–26V bus), Config 3 (low-voltage V+, wide bus range) - simplifies design reuse across platforms. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar temperature and power monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TMP512AID | Dual-channel remote sensing (DXP1/DXN1, DXP2/DXN2); lacks DXP3/DXN3; identical accuracy, ADC, and SMBus interface. | Suitable only for two-point thermal monitoring; cannot replace TMP513AID in triple-sensor designs without PCB revision. | Select TMP512AID when monitoring CPU + memory only; use TMP513AID when VRM or auxiliary IC temperature must also be tracked. |
| INA226AIDGST | Current/voltage/power monitor only (no temperature sensing); 16-bit delta-sigma ADC; 0.1% current accuracy; supports 0–36V bus. | No local or remote temperature capability; requires separate thermal sensors for thermal-aware power management. | Choose INA226AIDGST when high-precision power telemetry is primary requirement and thermal data is available elsewhere in system. |
Compared with TMP512AID, TMP513AID adds a third remote channel for comprehensive thermal coverage without increasing board area or firmware complexity; compared with INA226AIDGST, it integrates temperature sensing but trades 0.1% current accuracy for system-level integration and reduced component count.

FAQ
What is the maximum remote diode series resistance supported by the TMP513AID?
The TMP513AID supports automatic series resistance cancellation up to 3 kΩ across all three remote channels (DXP1/DXN1, DXP2/DXN2, DXP3/DXN3). This eliminates temperature offset caused by PCB trace resistance without requiring software calibration or external compensation components - maintaining ±1°C remote accuracy even with long sensor runs in server backplanes or industrial enclosures.
Does the TMP513AID require external level-shifting for 26V bus voltage monitoring?
No, the TMP513AID does not require external level-shifting. Its VIN+ and VIN− pins accept common-mode voltages from –0.3V to +26V and differential inputs from –26V to +26V, enabling direct connection to high-voltage rails. The internal ADC and PGA handle scaling and digitization, delivering calibrated current, voltage, and power values over SMBus without additional components.
How many unique SMBus addresses can be configured on a single bus using the TMP513AID?
The TMP513AID supports four unique SMBus addresses via its A0 pin, which accepts Ground, V+, SDA, or SCL logic levels to set slave addresses 1011100b, 1011101b, 1011110b, or 1011111b respectively. This allows up to four TMP513AID devices - or combinations with TMP512AID - to coexist on the same two-wire bus without address conflict.
What is the conversion time for temperature measurements on the TMP513AID?
The TMP513AID performs temperature conversions in 100–130 ms per channel, with 13-bit resolution for both local and remote sensors. Each conversion yields a 0.0625°C LSB step size, and results are stored in dedicated Local Temperature Result and Remote Temperature Result registers accessible via SMBus read commands.
Can the TMP513AID operate with a 3.3V supply only, or does it require higher voltage?
The TMP513AID operates from a single +3V to +26V supply. In Configuration 3 (V+ = 3V to 5.5V), the Filter C pin is shorted to V+, supplying the internal die directly - enabling full functionality including 0–26V bus voltage monitoring and triple remote sensing at minimum 3V supply, making it suitable for low-voltage embedded systems.
