DESCRIPTION
The DS1780 is a highly integrated system instrumentation monitor ideal for use in personal computers, or
any microprocessor-based system. It monitors ambient temperature, six power supply voltages, and the
speed of two fans. Fan speed can also be controlled with the use of an internal 8-bit DAC. All
measurements are internally converted to a digital format for easy processing by the CPU.
The DS1780 can be reset to its default power-up state via a remote reset function with internal debounce
and delay. It features an interrupt that can be programmed to become active should any of the functions
the DS1780 is monitoring fall out of spec.
For board-level testability, an internal NAND TREE function simplifies the system design. A chassis
intrusion input is featured to enhance system security.
Programming and data readout are accessed via a simple 2-wire interface with 2-bit addressability. The
DS1780 power supply range of 2.8V to 5.75V allows for monitoring of parameters for 3V or 5V systems.
The DS1780 is assembled in a compact 173-mil TSSOP package.

OVERVIEW
A block diagram of the DS1780 is shown in Figure 1.
The DS1780 provides six analog inputs, an analog output, five digital inputs, two fan speed inputs, a
temperature sensor, and interrupt registers on a single chip, which communicates on a 2-wire serial bus.
The DS1780 performs power supply, temperature, and fan monitoring for personal computers.
The analog voltages are divided internally by the DS1780. The inputs are then converted to 8-bit digital
words. The analog inputs are intended to be connected to the several power supplies present in a typical
computer. Temperature can be converted to a 9-bit two's-complement digital word with a 0.5C LSb.
The analog output is approximately a 0-1.25V output from an 8-bit D/A converter, which is used to
control fan speeds.
Fan inputs measure the period of tachometer pulses from the fans, providing a higher count for lower fan
speeds. The fan inputs are digital inputs with an acceptable range of 0 to V
DD
volts and a transition level
of approximately 1.4 volts. Full-scale fan counts are 255 (8-bit counter) and this represents a stopped or
very slow fan. Nominal speeds, based on a count of 153, are programmable from 1100 to 8800 RPM on
FAN1 and FAN2. Signal conditioning circuitry is included to accommodate slow rise and fall times.
The DS1780 provides a number of internal registers, as detailed in Table 1. These include:
Configuration Register: Provides control and configuration, as well as initialization.
Interrupt (
INT
) Status Registers: Two registers to provide status of each interrupt limit or interrupt
event.
Interrupt (
INT
) Mask Registers: Allows masking of individual Interrupt sources, as well as separate
masking for the hardware interrupt output.
Temperature Configuration Register: The lower 2 bits of this register configure the type of
temperature interrupt mode to be used. Bit 7 reflects the lowest bit of the temperature reading.
VID Register, VID4 Register: Bits 0-3 of the VID register reflect the status of the VID0-VID3 pins, bit
0 of the VID4 register reflect the status of VID4 pin. These are simply input pins - not processed in any
way. In a multiprocessor system, these signals will be multiplexed externally from the various processor
sources, with the source being controlled by software.
Value RAM: The monitoring results and limits for temperature, voltages, and fan counts are all
contained in the Value RAM.
When the DS1780 is started, it cycles through each measurement in sequence, and it continuously loops
through the sequence approximately once every second. Each measured value is compared to values
stored in limit registers. When the measured value violates the programmed limit the DS1780 will set a
corresponding System Management Interrupt (SMI) in the Interrupt Status Registers. One hardware
interrupt line,
INT
, is available to generate an SMI.
INT
is fully programmable with masking of each
Interrupt source, and masking of the output. In addition, the configuration register has control bits to
enable or disable the hardware Interrupts.

A CHS (Chassis Intrusion) digital input is provided. The Chassis Intrusion input is designed to accept an
active high signal from an external circuit that latches when the case is removed from the computer; this
pin is a dual purpose pin which will be driven low by the DS1780 to reset the external circuit.
DS1780 FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM Figure 1
Note: R1 and R2 on the -12V resistance ladder should be ratioed such that approximately +2.5V appears
at the input pin (i.e., R1=4k, R2=23.2 k). If a second processor voltage needs to be monitored (V
CCP2
),
leave R2 empty, and make R1 500, with V
CCP2
appearing here.
2-WIRE SERIAL DATA BUS
When using the 2-wire bus, a write will always consist of the DS1780 2-wire slave address, followed by
the Internal Address Register byte, then the data byte. The Internal Address Register addresses are listed
below in Table 2. There are two cases for a read:
1.
If the Internal Address Register is known to be at the desired Address, simply read the DS1780 with
the 2-wire slave address, followed by the data byte read from the DS1780.
2.
If the Internal Address Register value is unknown, write to the DS1780 with the 2-wire slave address,
followed by the Internal Address Register byte. Then restart the Serial Communication with a Read
consisting of the 2-wire slave address, followed by the data byte read from the DS1780.
The default power-on 2-wire slave address for the DS1780 is 01011(A1)(A0) binary, where A0-A1
reflects the state of the pins defined by the same names. The address can be changed by writing any
desired value to the 2-wire Serial Address Register (excluding the 2 LSBs). This communication protocol
is depicted in the 2-wire timing diagrams of Figures 2 and 8.
