6.1 Overview

The LM95010 is based on a ΔVbe temperature sensing method. A differential voltage, representing temperature, is digitized using a Sigma-Delta analog to digital converter. The digital temperature data can be retrieved over a simple single-wire interface called SensorPath. SensorPath is optimized for hardware monitoring. TI offers a royalty-free license in connection with its intellectual property rights in the SensorPath bus.

The LM95010 has 2 address pins that allow up to 4 LM95010s to be connected to one SensorPath bus. The physical interface of SensorPath's SWD signal is identical to the familiar industry standard SMBus SMBDAT signal. The digital information is encoded in the pulse width of the signal being transmitted. Every bit can be synchronized by the master simplifying the implementation of the master when implemented with a microcontroller. For microcontroller's with greater functionality an asynchronous attention signal can be transmitted by the LM95010 to interrupt the microcontroller and notify it that temperature data has been updated in the readout register.

To optimize the LM95010's power consumption to the system requirements, the LM95010 has a shutdown mode as well as it supports multiple conversion rates.
