Temperature Measurement Results and Data
The temperature measurement results are stored in the internal and external temperature registers.
These are then compared with the values stored in the high and low limit registers. Both external and
internal temperature measurements are stored in 11-bit format with the eight (8) most significant bits
stored in a high byte register and the three (3) least significant bits stored in the three (3) MSB
positions of the low byte register. All other bits of the low byte register are set to zero.
The EMC1413 / EMC1414 has two selectable temperature ranges. The default range is from 0°C to
+127°C and the temperature is represented as binary number able to report a temperature from 0°C
to +127.875°C in 0.125°C steps.
The extended range is an extended temperature range from -64°C to +191°C. The data format is a
binary number offset by 64°C. The extended range is used to measure temperature diodes with a large
known offset (such as AMD processor diodes) where the diode temperature plus the offset would be
equivalent to a temperature higher than +127°C.
Table 6.2 shows the default and extended range formats.

Note 6.4
Note 6.1 In default mode, all temperatures < 0°C will be reported as 0°C.
Note 6.2 In the extended range, all temperatures < -64°C will be reported as -64°C.
Note 6.3 For the default range, all temperatures > +127.875°C will be reported as +127.875°C.
Note 6.4 For the extended range, all temperatures > +191.875°C will be reported as +191.875°C.
