Applications Information
Switching Zones
The recommended procedure for switching between the
internal and external zones is as follows:
At the conclusion of the serial bus transaction for step 4, the
A/D converter will begin a conversion cycle using the new
zone setting. The next conversion cycle completed after
the serial bus transaction for step 5 will result in the state of
the INT output being updated (if enabled) for the new zone.
Generally the MIC184’s A/D converter operates continuously,
but it will be halted and reset each time the part recognizes
its slave address on the serial bus. Interrupted conversions
will remain halted until the end of the host’s communication
with the MIC184. After the completion of step 5 and a delay
of t
for the new zone. The above routine is extremely unlikely
to miss a temperature event, as even one A/D conversion is
typically much slower than the I
control the MIC184. See Figure 6: A/D Converter Timing.
Step 2(c) is recommended because the MIC184 has only
one CONFIG register, corresponding to the active zone. In
order to preserve data integrity for both zones, 2(c) allows
the host to create a virtual CONFIG register for the inactive
zone by dedicating one byte of memory to that purpose.
Additional virtual registers may be created as needed by
inserting additional reads as steps 2(d), 2(e), etc. These
could for example correspond to the values in T_SET and
T_HYST immediately prior to switching zones. Steps 4(b) and
5 ensure that the MIC184 will enter the new zone searching
for an overtemperature event.
Identifying an MIC184 by Software Test
The MIC184 and the LM75 each have an eight-bit CON-
FIG register. In LM75-type parts, no more than seven of

the eight bits of this register are used, and at least one bit
(the MSB) will always return a zero. The MIC184 uses all
eight bits of the CONFIG register: the MSB is the part’s
status bit (STS). A simple test by which the host can
determine whether a system has an MIC184 installed, or
is using a legacy LM75-type device, is to create a situation
which will set the MSB in the MIC184’s CONFIG register
and then determine if the MSB is in fact set. Two examples
of how this can be done are outlined below. The first is in-
terrupt-driven, the second uses software polling. Note that
both procedures generate one or more spurious interrupts.
The code for these tests should therefore temporarily dis-
able any affected interrupt routines.
