Abstract
The present disclosure provides a temperature-sensing device and a server, with the server including a chassis and a mainboard. A temperature-sensitive element is disposed at an inlet of the chassis, and the temperature-sensitive element is used for converting a temperature sensed in the inlet of the chassis to a temperature sensing data. The mainboard is disposed in the chassis and includes a temperature sensor and a host. An external temperature-sensing channel of the temperature sensor is communicatively connected to the temperature-sensitive element for transferring the temperature sensing data to the host. The function of sensing the temperature in the inlet of the chassis of the server can be implemented by the temperature sensing device and the server disclosed in the present disclosure, which reducing the product manufacturing costs. There is no need to test I2C signals on a temperature-sensor board, which reducing labor costs.
