LTRIM's System Supervisor IP Blocks Accurately Sense Temperature at Low Power
The LTR8433-T25 and LTR8434-T25 IP blocks are digital system supervisory functions. Each IP block provides precision monitoring of the power supply voltage (VDD) and includes Brown-Out Reset (BOR) circuitry that provides a reset signal when it detects out-of-tolerance power supply conditions. These building blocks increase long-term system reliability by providing safe system power-up for SoCs and reduce BOM cost by eliminating external components.
The LTR8600-T25 IP monitors either a die temperature or junction temperature of an integrated SoC. Over-temperature conditions are signaled by its FAULT output when the die temperature exceeds a preset temperature threshold. The LTR8600-T25 can accurately monitor temperature up to +150°C. The LTR8600-T25 increases long-term reliability of a SoC by providing a warning signal to the operating microcontroller when over-temperature condition occurs. The supervising logic can then respond to the over-temperature conditions with the appropriate procedure.
The LTR8700-T25 is a linear voltage output temperature sensor IP. Its output voltage is directly proportional to the measured temperature. The LTR8700-T25 can accurately sense temperature from -55°C to +125°C with an accuracy of ±5°C. To further reduce power consumption, the LTR8700-T25 features a shutdown mode.
All these IPs are available today in 0.25 micron TSMC CMOS technology, but may be retargeted to other foundry process technologies.
