11.3 PWM output operation
Using the PWM output mode of the MLX90614 is very simple, as shown on Figure 24.
The PWM mode is free-running after POR when configured in EEPROM. The SCL pin must be forced high
(can be shorted to Vdd pin) for PWM mode operation.
A pull-up resistor can be used to preserve the option for SMBus operation while having PWM as a default as
is shown on Figure 25.
Again, the PWM mode needs to be written as the POR default in EEPROM. Then for PWM operation the
SCL line can be high impedance, forced high, or even not connected. The pull-up resistor R1 will ensure
there is a high level on the SCL pin and the PWM POR default will be active. SMBus is still available (for
example – for further reconfiguration of the MLX90614, or sleep mode power management) as there are pull-
up resistors on the SMBus lines anyway.
PWM can be configured as open drain NMOS or a push-pull output. In the case of open drain external pull-up
will be needed. This allows cheap level conversion to lower logic high voltage. Internal pull-ups present in
many MCUs can also be used.
11.4 Thermal alert / thermostat
The MLX90614 can be configured in EEPROM to operate as a thermal relay. A non contact freezing or
boiling prevention with 1 mA quiescent current can be built with two components only – the MLX90614 and a
