SMBus Thermal Sensor Alert Interrupt
The SMBus thermal sensor located on the processor includes the ability to interrupt the SMBus
when a fault condition exists. The fault conditions consist of:
when a fault condition exists. The fault conditions consist of:
1. A processor thermal diode value measurement that exceeds a user-defined high or low
threshold programmed into the Command Register; or
2. Disconnection of the processor thermal diode from the thermal sensor.
The interrupt can be enabled and disabled via the thermal sensor Configuration Register and is
delivered to the system board via the SM_ALERT# open drain output. Once latched, the
SM_ALERT# should only be cleared by reading the Alert Response byte from the Alert Response
Address of the thermal sensor. The Alert Response Address is a special slave address shown in
delivered to the system board via the SM_ALERT# open drain output. Once latched, the
SM_ALERT# should only be cleared by reading the Alert Response byte from the Alert Response
Address of the thermal sensor. The Alert Response Address is a special slave address shown in
. The SM_ALERT# will be cleared once the SMBus master device reads the slave ARA
unless the fault condition persists. Reading the Status Register or setting the mask bit within the
Configuration Register does not clear the interrupt.
Configuration Register does not clear the interrupt.
