HARDWARE MONITOR
WITH INTEGRATED FAN CONTROL
aSC7611
PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
Product Description
The aSC7611 has a two wire digital interface compatible
with SMBus 2.0. Using a 10-bit ΣΔ- ADC, the aSC7611
measures the temperature of two remote diode connected
transistors as well as its own die.
Using temperature information from these three zones, an
automatic fan speed control algorithm is employed to
minimize acoustic impact while achieving recommended
CPU temperature under varying operational loads.
To set fan speed, the aSC7611 has three independent
pulse width modulation (PWM) outputs that are controlled
by one, or a combination of three, temperature zones.
Both high- and low-frequency PWM ranges are supported.
The aSC7611 also includes a digital filter that can be
invoked to smooth temperature readings for better control
of fan speed and minimum acoustic impact. The aSC7611
has tachometer inputs to measure fan speed on up to four
fans. Limit and status registers for all measured values are
included to alert the system host that any measurements
are outside of programmed limits via status registers.
System voltages of VCCP, 2.5V, 3.3V, 5.0V, and 12V
motherboard power are monitored efficiently with internal
scaling resistors.
