Micrel, Inc. Supervisors MIC280-5YM6

The MIC280-5YM6 is a digital thermal supervisor designed for precise temperature monitoring in various applications, including desktop and notebook computers, printers, and intelligent power supplies. It features the capability to measure both local and remote temperatures with an accuracy of ¬±1¬8C in the range of 60¬8C to 100¬8C. The device supports programmable high, low, and overtemperature thresholds for each zone, enhancing its utility in thermal management. This supervisor operates with a 3.0V to 3.6V power supply and is housed in a compact SOT23-6 package. It utilizes a 2-wire SMBus 2.0-compatible serial interface for communication, ensuring compatibility with various systems. The MIC280-5YM6 also includes advanced features such as fault queues to minimize nuisance tripping, a low power shutdown mode, and a failsafe response to diode faults, making it suitable for demanding applications. Its small size and high accuracy make it a viable option for engineers looking for reliable thermal supervision solutions.
