Ok, so a 3rd thermal diode then? Or perhaps not.

Reading this document again, the diagram at the top of Page 7, seems to imply that Tjunction is the true name of the thermal diode that the thermal control circuit actuation (PROCHOT) is coming from. As per your document, Tjunction is also driving THERMTRIP, which brings us back to the original statement:

Quote:
Or perhaps, and more likely, a second thermal trip sensor (ie. THERMTRIP) calibrated to 135C and driven by the same thermal diode that drives the PROCHOT trip sensor, which in turn drives the Control Circuit.
What I referred to as Tcc (that drives the monitor and control circuity) & Tjunction are the one and the same sensor.

Tjunction is what I called for to be user visible.

What's the problem again? Are you arguing that we should not be interested in the peak die temperature? Sorry, just don't know where you're going with all of this, other than arguing semantics over the naming of various sensors.
