1.5 INTERNAL REGISTER STRUCTURE

The LM70 has three registers, the temperature register, the
configuration register and the manufacturer’s/device identifi-
cation register. The temperature and manufacturer’s/device
identification registers are read only. The configuration reg-
ister is write only.

Shutdown

D0-D15 set to XX FF hex enables shutdown mode.

D0-D15 set to XX 00 hex enables continuous conversion
mode.

Note: setting D0-D15 to any other values may place the
LM70 into a manufacturer’s test mode, upon which the LM70

will stop responding as described. These test modes are to
be used for National Semiconductor production testing only.
See Section 1.2 Serial Bus Interface for a complete discus-
sion.
