Evaluation Board for Mcroprocessor
SystemTemperature Monitor
microprocessor system temperature IC to be quickly and
easily evaluated using a personal computer. Using the
evaluation board and its accompanying software the
ADM1023 can be interfaced to any personal computer
running Windows
95 or Windows
98, via the
computer’s parallel printer port.
T he evaluation board allows the input and output
functions of the ADM1023 to be exercised without the
need for external components. T he software allows control
and monitoring of the ADM1023’s internal registers.

T he ADM1023 Evaluation Board allows the ADM1023
T HE AD M1023
T he following is a brief description of the ADM1023 and
a system overview. Further information can be found in
the datasheet for the device.
T he ADM1023 is a hardware temperature monitor for
personal computers and other microprocessor systems
which features a two-channel digital thermometer and
over/under temperature alarm.
T he device can measure the temperature of a
microprocessor using on-chip diode connected transistor
or can use a low cost small signal transistor such as the
2N3904 or the 2N3906. T he measurment technique
cancels the absolute value of the transistor’s base emitter
voltage, so that no calibration is required.
