General Description
The MAX7500–MAX7504 temperature sensors accu-
rately measure temperature and provide an overtem-
perature alarm/interrupt/shutdown output. These
devices convert the temperature measurements to digi-
tal form using a high-resolution, sigma-delta, analog-to-
digital converter (ADC). Communication is through an
I2C-compatible 2-wire serial interface. The MAX7500/
MAX7501/MAX7502 integrate a timeout feature that
offers protection against I2C bus lockups. The
MAX7503/MAX7504 do not include the timeout feature.
The 2-wire serial interface accepts standard write byte,
read byte, send byte, and receive byte commands to
read the temperature data and configure the behavior
of the open-drain overtemperature shutdown output.
The MAX7500 features three address select lines, while
the MAX7501–MAX7504 feature two address select
lines and a RESET input. The MAX7500/MAX7501/
MAX7502s’ 3.0V to 5.5V supply voltage range, low
250µA supply current, and a lockup-protected I2C-com-
patible interface make them ideal for a wide range of
applications, including personal computers (PCs), elec-
tronic test equipment, and office electronics.
The MAX7500–MAX7504 are available in 8-pin µMAX®
and SO packages and operate over the -55°C to
+125°C temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. DC and AC electrical specifica-
tions do not apply when operating the device beyond its rated operating conditions.
Note 2: When the input voltage (VI) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (VI< GND or VI> + VS), the current at that pin should be
limited to 5mA. The 20mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power
supplies with an input current of 5mA to 4.

Note 4: All parts operate properly over the +VS= 3V to 5V supply voltage range. The devices are tested and specified for rated
accuracy at their nominal supply voltage. Accuracy typically degrades 1°C per volt of change in +VSas it varies from the
nominal value.
Note 5: All parameters are measured at +25°C. Values over the temperature range are guaranteed by design.
Note 6: This specification indicates how often temperature data is updated. The devices can be read at any time without regard
to conversion state, while yielding the last conversion result.
Note 7: For best accuracy, minimize output loading. Higher sink currents can affect sensor accuracy due to internal heating.
Note 8: OS delay is user programmable up to six “over-limit” conversions before OS is set to minimize false tripping in noisy
environments.
Note 9: Default values set at power-up.
Note 10: All timing specifications are guaranteed by design.
Note 11: A master device must provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal to bridge the undefined region of SCL’s

Detailed Description
The MAX7500–MAX7504 temperature sensors measure
temperature, convert the data into digital form using a
sigma-delta ADC, and communicate the conversion
results through an I2C-compatible 2-wire serial inter-
face. These devices accept standard I2C commands to
read the data, set the overtemperature alarm (OS) trip
thresholds, and configure other characteristics. The
MAX7500 features three address select lines (A0, A1,
A2) while the MAX7501–MAX7504 feature two address
select lines (A0, A1) and a RESET input. The
MAX7500–MAX7504 operate from +3.0V to +5.5V sup-
ply voltages and consume 250µA of supply current.

_______________________________________________________________________________________ 5
I2C-Compatible Bus Interface
From a software perspective, the MAX7500–MAX7504
appear as a set of byte-wide registers that contain tem-
perature data, alarm threshold values, and control bits.
A standard I2C-compatible 2-wire serial interface reads
temperature data and writes control bits and alarm
threshold data. Each device responds to its own I2C
slave address, which is selected using A0, A1, and A2.
See Table 1.
The MAX7500–MAX7504 employ four standard I2C
protocols: write byte, read byte, send byte, and receive
byte (Figures 1, 2, and 3). The shorter receive byte pro-
tocol allows quicker transfers, provided that the correct
data register was previously selected by a read-byte
instruction. Use caution when using the shorter proto-
cols in multimaster systems, as a second master could
overwrite the command byte without informing the first
master. The MAX7500 has eight different slave
addresses available; therefore, a maximum of eight
MAX7500 devices can share the same bus. The
MAX7501–MAX7504 each have four different slave
addresses available.

Register Descriptions
The MAX7500–MAX7504 have an internal pnp-junction-
based temperature sensor whose analog output is con-
verted to digital form using a 9-bit sigma-delta ADC.
The measured temperature and temperature configura-
tions are controlled by the temperature, configuration,
THYST, and TOS registers. See Table 2.
Temperature Register
Read the measured temperature through the tempera-
ture register. The temperature data format is 9 bits,
two’s complement, and the register is read out in 2
bytes: an upper byte and a lower byte. Bit D15 is the
sign bit. When bit D15 is 1, the temperature reading is
negative. When bit D15 is zero, the temperature read-
ing is positive. Bits D14–D7 contain the temperature
data, with the LSB representing 0.5°C and the MSB
representing 64°C (see Table 3). The MSB is transmit-
ted first. The last 7 bits of the lower byte, bits D6–D0,
are don’t cares. When reading the temperature register,
bits D6–D0 must be ignored. When the measured tem-
perature is greater than +127.5°C, the value stored in
the temperature register is clipped to 7F8h. When the
measured temperature is below -64°C, the value in the
temperature register is clipped to BF8h.
During the time of reading the temperature register, any
changes in temperature are ignored until the read is
completed. The temperature register is updated upon
completion of the next conversion.
Table 3 lists the temperature register definition.
Configuration Register
The 8-bit configuration register sets the fault queue, OS
polarity, shutdown control, and whether the OS output
functions in comparator or interrupt mode. When writing
to the configuration register, set bits D7, D6, and D5 to
zero. See Table 5.
Bits D4 and D3, the fault queue bits, determine the
number of faults necessary to trigger an OS condition.
See Table 6. The number of faults set in the queue
must occur to trip the OS output. The fault queue pre-
vents OS false tripping in noisy environments.
Set bit D2, the OS polarity bit, to zero to force the OS
output active low. Set bit D2 to 1 to set the OS output
polarity to active high. OS is an open-drain output
under all conditions and requires a pullup resistor to
output a high voltage. See Figure 4.
Set bit D1, the comparator/interrupt bit to zero to run
the overtemperature shutdown block in comparator
mode. In comparator mode, OS is asserted when the
temperature rises above the TOS value. OS is deassert-

ed when the temperature drops below the THYST value.
See Figure 4. Set bit D1 to 1 to run the overtemperature
shutdown block in interrupt mode. OS is asserted in
interrupt mode when the temperature rises above the
TOS value or falls below the THYST value. OS is
deasserted only after performing a read operation.
Set bit D0, the shutdown bit, to zero for normal opera-
tion. Set bit D0 to 1 to shut down the MAX7500–
MAX7504 internal blocks, dropping the supply current
to 3µA. The I2C interface remains active as long as the
shutdown bit is set. The TOS, THYST, and configuration
registers can still be written to and read from while in
shutdown.
TOS and THYST Registers
In comparator mode, the OS output behaves like a ther-
mostat. The output asserts when the temperature rises
above the limit set in the TOS register. The output
deasserts when the temperature falls below the limit set
in the THYST register. In comparator mode, the OS output
can be used to turn on a cooling fan, initiate an emer-
gency shutdown signal, or reduce system clock speed.
In interrupt mode, exceeding TOS also asserts OS. OS
remains asserted until a read operation is performed on
any of the registers. Once OS has asserted due to
crossing above TOS and is then reset, it is asserted
again only when the temperature drops below THYST.
The output remains asserted until it is reset by a read.
Putting the MAX7500–MAX7504 into shutdown mode
also resets OS.
The TOS and THYST registers are accessed with 2
bytes, with bits D15–D7 containing the data. Bits
D6–D0 are don’t cares when writing to these two regis-
ters and read-back zeros when reading from these reg-
isters. The LSB represents 0.5°C while the MSB
represents 64°C. See Table 7.

Power-Up and Power-Down

indicated in Table 2. Some of these settings are sum-
marized below:
Comparator mode
•T
OS = +80°C
•T
HYST = +75°C
OS active low
Pointer = 00
Internal Registers
The MAX7500–MAX7504s’ pointer register selects
between four data registers. See Figure 5. At power-up,
the pointer is set to read the temperature register at
address 00. The pointer register latches the last loca-
tion to which it was set. All registers are read and write,
except the temperature register, which is read only.
Write to the configuration register by writing an address
byte, a data pointer byte, and a data byte. If 2 data
bytes are written, the second data byte overrides the
first. If more than 2 data bytes are written, only the first
2 bytes are recognized while the remaining bytes are
ignored. The TOS and THYST registers require 1
address byte and 1 pointer byte and 2 data bytes. If
only 1 data byte is written, it is saved in bits D15–D8 of
the respective register. If more than 2 data bytes are
written, only the first 2 bytes are recognized while the
remaining bytes are ignored.
Read from the MAX7500–MAX7504 in one of two ways.
If the location latched in the pointer register is set from
the previous read, the new read consists of an address
byte, followed by retrieving the corresponding number
of data bytes. If the pointer register needs to be set to a
new address, perform a read operation by writing an
address byte, pointer byte, repeat start, and another
address byte.
An inadvertent 8-bit read from a 16-bit register, with the
D7 bit low, can cause the MAX7500–MAX7504 to stop
in a state where the SDA line is held low. Ordinarily, this
would prevent any further bus communication until the
master sends nine additional clock cycles or SDA goes
high. At that time, a stop condition resets the device.
With the MAX7500/MAX7501/MAX7502, if the additional
clock cycles are not generated by the master, the bus
resets and unlocks after the bus timeout period has
elapsed.
The MAX750–MAX7504 can be reset by pulsing RESET
low.
Bus Timeout
Communication errors sometimes occur due to noise
pickup on the bus. In the worst case, such errors can
cause the slave device to hold the data line low, there-
by preventing other devices from communicating over
the bus. The MAX7500/MAX7501/MAX7502s’ internal
bus timeout circuit resets the bus and releases the data
line if the line is low for more than 250ms. When the bus
timeout is active, the minimum serial clock frequency is
limited to 6Hz.
RESET
The RESET input on the MAX7503/MAX7504 provides a
way to reset the I2C bus and all the internal registers to
their initial POR values. To reset, apply a low pulse with
a duration of at least 1µs to the RESET input.

Applications Information
Digital Noise
The MAX7500–MAX7504 feature an integrated lowpass
filter on both the SCL and the SDA digital lines to miti-
gate the effects of bus noise. Although this filtering
makes communication robust in noisy environments,
good layout practices are always recommended.
Minimize noise coupling by keeping digital traces away
from switching power supplies. Ensure that digital lines
containing high-speed data communications cross at
right angles to the SDA and SCL lines.
Excessive noise coupling into the SDA and SCL lines
on the MAX7500–MAX7504—specifically noise with
amplitude greater than 400mVP-P (the MAX7500–
MAX7504s’ typical hysteresis), overshoot greater than
300mV above +VS, and undershoot more than 300mV
below GND—may prevent successful serial communi-
cation. Serial bus no-acknowledge is the most common
symptom, causing unnecessary traffic on the bus.
Care must be taken to ensure proper termination within
a system with long PC board traces or multiple parts on
the bus. Resistance can be added in series with the
SDA and SCL lines to further help filter noise and ring-
ing. If it proves to be necessary, a 5kresistor should
be placed in series with the SCL line, placed as close
as possible to SCL. This 5kresistor, with the 5pF to
10pF stray capacitance of the MAX7500–MAX7504 pro-
vide a 6MHz to 12MHz lowpass filter, which is sufficient
filtering in most cases.
