About this manual

The LM83 digital temperature sensor measures its own die temperature and up to three external diode junctions via a Delta‑Sigma ADC. It communicates over a two‑wire SMBus/I²C compatible interface and provides programmable high‑temperature limits with INT and T_CRIT_A interrupt outputs.

The device operates from 3.0 V to 3.6 V, offers 8‑bit resolution, and includes features such as local temperature sensing, remote diode monitoring, and register read‑back capability. Typical applications include system thermal management for computers and electronic test equipment.
