18Description
19-----------
20
21The MAX31760 integrates temperature sensing along with precision PWM fan
22control. It accurately measures its local die temperature and the remote
23temperature of a discrete diode-connected transistor, such as a 2N3906,
24or a thermal diode commonly found on CPUs, graphics processor units (GPUs),
25and other ASICs. Multiple temperature thresholds, such as local
26high/overtemperature (OT) and remote high/overtemperature, can be set by an
27I2C-compatible interface. Fan speed is controlled based on the temperature
28reading as an index to a 48-byte lookup table (LUT) containing
29user-programmed PWM values. The flexible LUT-based architecture enables
30the user to program a smooth nonlinear fan speed vs. temperature transfer
31function to minimize acoustic fan noise. Two tachometer inputs allow
32measuring the speeds of two fans independently. When the local or remote
33OT threshold is exceeded, the SHDN pin is asserted low and can be used to
34shut down the system. A dedicated ALERT pin reports that either a local or
35remote high-temperature threshold has been exceeded.
