Temperature Monitoring Using the MAX1253/54 and MAX1153/54

Abstract: The MAX1253/54 and MAX1153/54 system monitors are a low cost solution for monitoring multiple
temperatures in a system. This application note explains how to measure temperature using remote sensing
diodes in single-ended or differential configuration and possible error sources.


Remote temperature monitoring traditionally has been accomplished with thermistors, thermocouples or
temperature sensor ICs. If a system requires temperature
