General Description
The EMC1184 is a high accuracy, low cost, 1.8V System Management Bus (SMBus) compatible temperature sensor. Advanced features such as Resistance Error Correction (REC), Beta Compensation (to support CPU diodes requiring the BJT/transistor model including 65nm and lower geometry processors) and automatic diode type detection combine to provide a robust solution for complex environmental monitoring applications. The ability to communicate at 1.8V SMBus levels provides compatible I/O for the advanced processors found in today’s tablet and smartphone applications.
