The THERM pin is a bi-directional I/O, as shown in Figure 22.

THERM Pin As An Output

As an open-drain output, the THERM pin is the indicator of temperature over the THERM limit. When the remote

temperature exceeds the Remote-THERM-Limit, or when the local temperature is greater than the

Local-THERM-Limit, the THERM pin goes low and remains low until the measured temperature falls 5

°C below

the exceeded THERM limit.
