Figure 3.2 Block Diagram of Temperature Monitoring Circuit
Figure 3.2 shows a block diagram of the temperature measurement circuit. The negative terminal for
the remote temperature diode, DN, is internally biased with a forward diode voltage referenced to
ground.
The external diodes in the EMC1053 are compatible with a broad range of thermal diodes that may
be connected as shown in Figure 3.3.
