Each temperature result for each zone is available in two byte wide data registers. As shown in
Section
least significant bits stored in the three MSB positions of the low byte register. The delta-sigma ADC
may be operated with more than 11 bits of resolution for improved averaging as described in
Section
The temperature results for the two remote zones are also stored in extended format with a range from
-64°C to +191°C. The data format is a 2’s complement number offset by 64°C as shown in
The data for each of the remote zones in both legacy and extended format is stored in separate data
registers so that both data formats are always available.
range formats.
Resistance error correction is an automatic feature that eliminates the need to characterize and
compensate for series resistance in the external diode lines. The EMC1053 corrects for as much as
100 ohms of series resistance.
When using a temperature sensor that does not include resistance error correction, voltage developed
across the parasitic resistance in the external diode path produces an error in the reported
temperature. The error introduced by this resistance is approximately +0.7°C per ohm. Sources of
series resistance are PCB trace resistance, on die (i.e. on the processor) metal resistance, bulk
resistance in the base and emitter of the temperature transistor.
