vides 9-bit to 12-bit Celsius temperature measurements
with ±0.5°C accuracy over a +10°C to +45°C temperature
range. Over its entire -55°C to +125°C operating range,
the device has ±2.0°C accuracy.
The device communicates over a 1-Wire
®
bus that, by
definition, requires only one data line (and ground) for
communication with a central microprocessor. In addi-
tion, the device derives power directly from the data line
(“parasite power”), eliminating the need for an external
power supply. Requiring so few pins enables the device
to be placed in a 3-pin TO-92 package. The form factor
of this package allows the device to be placed above
the board and thus measure the ambient temperature of
a system, as opposed to the board temperature that a
surface-mount package would measure.
Each MAX31820PAR has a unique 64-bit serial code, which
allows multiple MAX31820PAR devices to function on the
same 1-Wire bus. Therefore, it is simple to use one micropro-
cessor to control many devices distributed over a large area.

Note 1:
Limits are 100% tested at T
A
= +25°C and T
A
= +85°C. Limits over the operating temperature range and relevant supply
voltage are guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 2:
All voltages are referenced to ground.
Note 3:
The pullup supply voltage specification assumes that the pullup device (resistor or transistor) is ideal, and therefore the
high level of the pullup is equal to V
PU
. In order to meet the device’s V

spec, the actual supply rail for the strong pullup
transistor must include margin for the voltage drop across the transistor when it is turned on; thus: V

Note 4:
Logic-low voltages are specified at a sink current of 4mA.
Note 5:
To guarantee a presence pulse under low-voltage parasite-power conditions, V

FUNCTION
Detailed Description
The MAX31820PAR ambient temperature sensor
provides 9-bit to 12-bit Celsius temperature measure-
ments with ±0.5°C accuracy over a +10°C to +45°C tem-
perature range. Over its entire -55°C to +125°C operating
range, the device has ±2.0°C accuracy. The device com-
municates over a 1-Wire bus that, by definition, requires
only one data line (and ground) for communication with
a central microprocessor. In addition, the device derives
power directly from the data line (“parasite power”),
eliminating the need for an external power supply.
Requiring so few pins enables the device to be placed
in a 3-pin TO-92 package. The form factor of this pack-
age allows the device to be placed above the board and
thus measure the ambient temperature of a system, as
opposed to the board temperature that a surface-mount
package would measure.
Each device has a unique 64-bit serial code, allowing
multiple MAX31820PAR devices to function on the same
1-Wire bus. Therefore, it is simple to use one micro-
processor to control many devices distributed over a
large area. The 64-bit ROM stores the device’s unique
serial code. The scratchpad memory contains the 2-byte
temperature register that stores the digital output from
the temperature sensor. In addition, the scratchpad pro-
vides access to the 1-byte upper and lower alarm trigger
registers (T
H
and T
L
) and the 1-byte configuration regis-
ter. The configuration register allows the user to set the
resolution of the temperature-to-digital conversion to 9,
10, 11, or 12 bits. The T
H
, T
L
, and configuration registers
are nonvolatile (EEPROM), so they retain data when the
device is powered down.
The device uses Maxim Integrated’s exclusive 1-Wire
bus protocol that implements bus communication using
one control signal. The control line requires a weak pullup
resistor since all devices are linked to the bus through a
three-state or open-drain port (i.e., the MAX31820PAR’s
DQ pin). In this bus system, the microprocessor (the
master device) identifies and addresses devices on the
bus using each device’s unique 64-bit code. Because
each device has a unique code, the number of devices
that can be addressed on one bus is virtually unlimited.
The 1-Wire bus protocol, including detailed explanations
of the commands and time slots, is covered in the
1-Wire
Bus System
section.
The device can also operate without an external power
supply. Power is instead supplied through the 1-Wire
pullup resistor through the DQ pin when the bus is high.
The high bus signal also charges an internal capacitor
(C
PP
), which then supplies power to the device when the
bus is low. This method of deriving power from the 1-Wire
