GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADT7466 dBCool controller is a complete thermal monitor and dual fan controller for noise-sensitive applications requiring active system cooling. It can monitor two analog voltages or the temperature of two thermistors, plus its own supply voltage. It can monitor the temperature of up to two remote sensor diodes, plus its own internal temperature. It can measure and control the speed of up to two fans so that they operate at the lowest possible speed for minimum acoustic noise. The automatic fan speed control loop optimizes fan speed for a given temperature. The effectiveness of the system’s thermal solution can be monitored using the

ADT7466
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ADT7466 is a complete thermal monitor and dual fan controller for any system requiring monitoring and cooling. The device communicates with the system via a serial system management bus (SMBus). The serial data line (SDA, Pin 15) is used for reading and writing addresses and data. The input line, (SCL, Pin 16) is the serial clock. All control and programming functions of the ADT7466 are performed over the serial bus. In addition, an
output is provided to indicate out-of-limit
ALERT
conditions.
MEASUREMENT INPUTS
The device has three measurement inputs, two for voltage and one for temperature. It can also measure its own supply voltage and can measure ambient temperature with its on-chip temperature sensor.
Pin 11 and Pin 12 are analog inputs with an input range of 0 V to 2.25 V. They can easily be scaled for other input ranges by using external attenuators. These pins can also be configured for temperature monitoring by using thermistors or a second remote diode temperature measurement.
The ADT7466 can simultaneously monitor the local temperature, the remote temperature by using a discrete transistor, and two thermistor temperatures.
Remote temperature sensing is provided by the D+ and D− inputs, to which diode connected, remote temperature sensing transistors such as a 2N3904 or CPU thermal diode can be connected.
Temperature sensing using thermistors is carried out by placing the thermistor in series with a resistor. The excitation voltage is provided by the REFOUT pin.

Enhance Acoustics This register sets the step size for fan drive changes in AFC mode to minimize acoustic noise.
This register contains the address that selects one of the other internal registers. When writing to the ADT7466, the first byte of data is always a register address, which is written to the address pointer register.
These registers provide status of each limit comparison and are used to signal out-of-limit conditions on the temperature, voltage, or fan speed channels. Whenever a status bit is set, the
These registers allow interrupt sources to be masked so that they do not affect the The results of analog voltage inputs, temperature, and fan speed measurements are stored in these registers, along
with their limit values. These registers allow each temperature channel reading to be offset by a twos complement value written to these
registers.
These registers program the temperature-to-fan speed control slope in automatic fan speed control mode for each fan drive output.
The device also accepts input from an on-chip band gap temperature sensor that monitors system ambient temperature.
Power is supplied to the chip via Pin 6. The system also monitors V
through this pin. It is normally connected to a
CC
3.3 V supply. It can, however, be connected to a 5 V supply and monitored without going over range.
SEQUENTIAL MEASUREMENT
When the ADT7466 monitoring sequence is started, it sequentially cycles through the measurement of analog inputs and the temperature sensors. Measured values from these inputs are stored in value registers, which can be read out over the serial bus, or can be compared with programmed limits stored in the limit registers. The results of out of limit comparisons are stored in the status registers, which can be read over the serial bus to flag out-of-limit conditions.
FAN SPEED MEASUREMENT AND CONTROL
The ADT7466 has two tachometer inputs for measuring the speed of 3-wire fans, and it has two 8-bit DACs to control the speed of two fans. The temperature measurement and fan speed control can be linked in an automatic control loop, which can operate without CPU intervention to maintain system operating temperature within acceptable limits. The enhanced acoustics feature ensures that fans operate at the minimum possible speed consistent with temperature control, and change speed gradually. This reduces the user’s perception of changing fan speed.
INTERNAL REGISTERS OF THE ADT7466
Table 4 provides brief descriptions of the ADT7466’s principal internal registers. More detailed information on the function of each register is given in Table 30 to Table 72.

ADT7466
THEORY OF OPERATION
SERIAL BUS INTERFACE
The serial system management bus (SMBus) is used to control the ADT7466. The ADT7466 is connected to this bus as a slave device under the control of a master controller.
The ADT7466 has an SMBus timeout feature. When this is enabled, the SMBus times out after typically 25 ms of no activity. However, this feature is enabled by default. Bit 5 of Configuration Register 1 (0x00) should be set to 1 to disable this feature.
The ADT7466 supports optional packet error checking (PEC). It is triggered by supplying the extra clock pulses for the PEC byte. The PEC byte is calculated using CRC-8. The frame check sequence (FCS) conforms to CRC-8 by the polynomial
()
Consult the SMBus Specifications Rev. 1.1 for more information (www.smbus.org).
The ADT7466 has a 7-bit serial bus address, which is fixed at
1001100.
The serial bus protocol operates as follows:
The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start condition, defined as a high-to-low transition on the serial data line SDA while the serial clock line SCL remains high. This indicates that an address/data stream follows. All slave peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to the start condition, and shift in the next 8 bits, consisting of a 7-bit address (MSB first) and a R/
bit, which determines the direction of the data transfer, that is, whether data is written to or read from the slave device.
The address of the ADT7466 is set at 1001100. Since the address must always be followed by a write bit (0) or a read bit (1), and data is generally handled in 8-bit bytes, it may be more conven­ient to think that the ADT7466 has an 8-bit write address of 10011000 (0x98) and an 8-bit read address of 10011001 (0x99). The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted address responds by pulling the data line low during the low period before the 9th clock pulse, known as the acknowledge bit. All other devices on the bus now remain idle while the selected device waits for data to be read from or written to it. If the R/
R/
Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of 9 clock pulses, 8 bits of data followed by an acknowledge bit from the slave device. Transitions on the data line must occur during the low period of the clock signal and remain stable during the high period, because a low-to-high transition when the clock is high may be interpreted as a stop signal. The number of data bytes that can be transmitted over the serial bus in a single read or
bit is 0, the master writes to the slave device. If the
W
bit is 1, the master reads from the slave device.
W
1128 +++= xxxxC
W
write operation is limited only by what the master and slave devices can handle.
When all data bytes have been read or written, stop conditions are established. In write mode, the master pulls the data line high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop condition. In read mode, the master device overrides the acknowledge bit by pulling the data line high during the low period before the ninth clock pulse. This is known as No Acknowledge. The master takes the data line low during the low period before the 10th clock pulse, and then high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop condition.
Any number of bytes of data can be transferred over the serial bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix read and write in one operation, because the type of operation is determined at the beginning and subsequently cannot be changed without starting a new operation.
ADT7466 write operations contain either one or two bytes, and read operations contain one byte, and perform the following functions.
To write data to one of the device data registers or read data from it, the address pointer register must be set so that the correct data register is addressed, and data can be written to that register or read from it. The first byte of a write operation always contains an address that is stored in the address pointer register. If data is to be written to the device, the write operation contains a second data byte that is written to the register selected by the address pointer register. This is shown in Figure 17. The device address is sent over the bus followed by
set to 0. This is followed by two data bytes. The first data
R/
W
byte is the address of the internal data register to be written to, which is stored in the address pointer register. The second data byte is the data to be written to the internal data register.
When reading data from a register, there are two possibilities.
If the ADT7466 address pointer register value is unknown or not the desired value, it is necessary to first set it to the correct value before data can be read from the desired data register. This is done by performing a write to the ADT7466 as before, but only the data byte containing the register address is sent since data is not to be written to the register. This is shown in Figure 18.
A read operation is then performed consisting of the serial bus address, R/
the data register. This is shown in Figure 19.
If the address pointer register is known to already be at the desired address, data can be read from the corresponding data register without first writing to the address pointer register, so the procedure in Figure 18 can be omitted.

WRITE AND READ OPERATIONS
The SMBus specification defines several protocols for different types of write and read operations. The protocols used in the ADT7466 are discussed in the following sections. The following abbreviations are used in the diagrams:
S—Start P—Stop R—Read W—Wri te A—Acknowl edge
A
—No Acknowledge
Write Operations
The ADT7466 uses the send byte and write byte protocols.
Send Byte
In this operation, the master device sends a single command byte to a slave device, as follows:
1. The master device asserts a start condition on SDA.
2. The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed by the
write bit (low).
3. The addressed slave device asserts ACK on SDA.
4. The master sends a register address.
5. The slave asserts ACK on SDA.
6. The master asserts a stop condition on SDA and the
transaction ends.
For the ADT7466, the send byte protocol is used to write a register address to RAM for a subsequent single-byte read from the same address. This is shown in Figure 20.

line goes low, the following occurs:
2. The master initiates a read operation and sends the alert
response address (ARA = 0001 100). This is a general call address, which must not be used as a specific device address.
3. The device whose
output is low responds to the
ALERT
alert response address, and the master reads its device address. The address of the device is now known, and it can be interrogated in the usual way.
4. If more than one device’s
output is low, the one

with the lowest device address has priority, in accordance with normal SMBus arbitration.
5. Once the ADT7466 responds to the alert response address,
the master must read the status registers, the
ALERT
is
cleared only if the error condition no longer exists.
SMBus TIMEOUT
The ADT7466 includes an SMBus timeout feature. If there is no SMBus activity for 25 ms, the ADT7466 assumes that the bus is locked, and it releases the bus. This prevents the device from locking or holding the SMBus expecting data. Some SMBus controllers cannot handle the SMBus timeout feature, so they are disabled.

VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT
The ADT7466 has two external voltage measurement channels. Pin 11 and Pin 12 are analog inputs with a range of 0 V to
2.25 V. It can also measure its own supply voltage, V supply voltage measurement is carried out through the V (Pin 6). Setting Bit 6 of Configuration Register 1 (0x00) allows a 5 V supply to power the ADT7466 and be measured without overranging the V
measurement channel.
CC
A/D Converter
All analog inputs are multiplexed into the on-chip, successive approximation, analog-to-digital converter. This has a resolution of 10 bits. The basic input range is 0 V to 2.25 V, but the V input has built in attenuators to allow measurement of 3.3 V or 5 V. To allow for the tolerance of the supply voltage, the ADC
. The VCC

produces an output of 3/4 full scale (decimal 768 or 0x300) for the nominal supply voltage, and so has adequate headroom to cope with overvoltages.

Associated with each voltage measurement channel are high and low limit registers. Exceeding the programmed high or low limit causes the appropriate status bit to be set. Exceeding either limit can also generate
ALERT
interrupts.

When the ADC is running, it samples and converts a voltage input in 1 ms, and averages 16 conversions to reduce noise. Therefore a measurement on each input takes nominally 16 ms.
Turn Off Averaging
For each voltage measurement read from a value register, 16 readings have actually been made internally and the results averaged, before being placed into the value register. There can be an instance where faster conversions are required. Setting Bit 4 of Configuration Register 2 (0x01) turns averaging off. This effectively gives a reading 16 times faster (1 ms), but as a result the reading can be noisier.
Single-Channel ADC Conversions
Setting Bit 3 of Configuration Register 4 (0x03) places the ADT7466 into single-channel ADC conversion mode. In this mode, the ADT7466 can be made to read a single voltage channel only. If the internal ADT7466 clock is used, the selected input is read every 1 ms. The appropriate ADC channel is selected by writing to Bits 2:0 of Configuration Register 4 (0x03).

REFERENCE VOLTAGE OUTPUT
The ADT7466 has a reference voltage of 2.25 V, which is available on Pin 13 of the device. It can be used for scaling and offsetting the analog inputs to give different voltage ranges. It can also be used as an excitation voltage for a thermistor when the analog inputs are configured as thermistor inputs. See the Temperature Measurement section for more details.
CONFIGURATION OF PIN 11 AND PIN 12
Pin 11 and Pin 12 can be used for analog inputs, thermistor inputs, or connecting a second remote thermal diode. The ADT7466 is configured for thermistor connection by default. The device is configured for the different modes by setting the

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
The ADT7466 has two dedicated temperature measurement channels, one for measuring the temperature of an on-chip band gap temperature sensor, and one for measuring the temperature of a remote diode, usually located in the CPU. In addition, the analog input channels, AIN1 and AIN2, can be reconfigured to measure the temperature of a second diode by setting Bit 7 of Configuration Register 2 (0x01), or to measure temperature using thermistors by setting Bit 6 and/or Bit 7 of Configuration Register 3 (0x02).
SERIES RESISTANCE CANCELLATION
Parasitic resistance, seen in series with the remote diode between the D+ and D− inputs to the ADT7466, is caused by a variety of factors including PCB track resistance and track length. This series resistance appears as a temperature offset in the sensor’s temperature measurement. This error typically causes a 1°C offset per ohm of parasitic resistance in series with the remote diode. The ADT7466 automatically cancels the effect of this series resistance on the temperature reading, giving a more accurate result without the need for user characterization of the resistance. The ADT7466 is designed to automatically cancel typically 2 kΩ of resistance. This is done transparently to the user, using an advanced temperature measurement method described in the following section.
collector is not grounded, and should be linked to the base. To prevent ground noise from interfering with the measurement, the more negative terminal of the sensor is not referenced to ground but is biased above ground by an internal diode at the D– input. If the sensor is operating in an extremely noisy environment, C1 may optionally be added as a noise filter. Its value should never exceed 1000 pF. See the Layout Considerations section for more information on C1.

waveforms are passed through a 65 kHz low-pass
BE
filter to remove noise, and then to a chopper-stabilized amplifier. This amplifies and rectifies the waveform to produce a dc voltage proportional to ΔV
. The ADC digitizes this
BE
voltage, and a temperature measurement is produced. To reduce the effects of noise, digital filtering is performed by averaging the results of 16 measurement cycles for low conversion rates. Signal conditioning and measurement of the internal temperature sensor is performed in the same manner.
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT METHOD
A simple method of measuring temperature is to exploit the negative temperature coefficient of a diode, by measuring the base emitter voltage (V current. Unfortunately, this technique requires calibration to null out the effect of the absolute value of V from device to device.
The technique used in the ADT7466 measures the change in

Previous devices used only two operating currents, but it is the third current that allows series resistance cancellation.

To prevent ground noise interfering with the measurement, the more negative terminal of the sensor is not referenced to ground, but is biased above ground by an internal diode at the D− input.

ADT7466
Temperature Data Format
The temperature data stored in the temperature data registers consists of a high byte with an LSB size equal to 1°C. If higher resolution is required, two additional bits are stored in the extended temperature registers, giving a resolution of 0.25°C. The temperature measurement range for both local and remote measurements is, by default, 0°C to 127°C (binary), so the ADC output code equals the temperature in degrees Celsius, and half the range of the ADC is not actually used.
The ADT7466 can also be operated by using an extended temperature range from −64°C to +191°C. In this case, the whole range of the ADC is used, but the ADC code is offset by +64°C, so it does not correspond directly to the temperature. (0°C = 0100000) .
The user can switch between these two temperature ranges by setting or clearing Bit 7 in Configuration Register 1. The measurement range should be switched only once after power­up, and the user should wait for two monitoring cycles (approximately 68 ms) before expecting a valid result. Both ranges have different data formats, as shown in Table 11.

Offset binary scale temperature values are offset by +64.
While the temperature measurement range can be set to −64°C to +191°C for both local and remote temperature monitoring, the ADT7466 itself should not be exposed to temperatures greater than those specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Furthermore, the device is guaranteed to only operate at ambient temperatures from −40°C to +125°C. In practice, the device itself should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, and may need to be shielded in extreme environments to comply with these requirements. Only the remote temperature monitoring diode should be exposed to temperatures above +120°C and below −40°C. Care should be taken in choosing a remote temperature diode to ensure that it can function over the required temperature range.

Nulling Out Temperature Errors
The ADT7466 automatically nulls out temperature measurement errors due to series resistance, but systematic errors in the temperature measurement can arise from a number of sources, and the ADT7466 can reduce these errors. As CPUs run faster, it is more difficult to avoid high frequency clocks when routing the D+, D− tracks around a system board. Even when recommended layout guidelines are followed, there may still be temperature errors attributed to noise being coupled onto the D+/D− lines. High frequency noise generally has the effect of giving temperature measurements that are too high by a constant amount. The ADT7466 has temperature offset registers at addresses 0x26 and 0x27 for the remote and local temperature channels. A one time calibration of the system can determine the offset caused by system board noise and null it out using the offset registers. The offset registers automatically add a twos complement 8-bit reading to every temperature measurement. The LSB adds 1°C offset to the temperature reading so the 8-bit register effectively allows temperature offsets of up to ±128°C with a resolution of 1°C. This ensures that the readings in the temperature measurement registers are as accurate as possible.

Thermistor Linearization
A linear transfer function can be obtained over a limited temperature range by connecting the thermistor in series with an optimum resistor. Placing a resistor in series with the thermistor as shown in Figure 26 produces an S-shaped error curve as shown in Figure 27. The overall error across the range can be reduced by calculating the external resistor so that the error is 0 at the ends of the range. R

Figure 27 shows the linearity error using a 100 kΩ thermistor with a B value of 3500 and a 14400 Ω resistor. Using the specified thermistor and resistor, the error over a temperature range of 30°C to 100°C is less than ±2°C. Other thermistors can be used, but the resistor value is different. A smaller error can be achieved over a narrower temperature range; conversely, a wider temperature range can be used, but the error is greater. In both cases, the optimum resistor value is different.

Thermistor Normalization
Even when the thermistor is linearized, it does not provide an output to the ADC that gives a direct temperature reading in degrees Celsius. The linearized data is proportional to the voltage applied; however, normalization is needed to use the value as a temperature reading.
To overcome this problem, when an analog input is configured for use with a thermistor, the output of the ADC is scaled and offset so that it produces the same output (for example, 1 LSB =
0.25°C) as from the thermal diode input, when R
is chosen to
EXT
linearize the thermistor over 30°C to 100°C.
Normalization can be chosen for 10 kΩ thermistors by setting Bit 0 of Configuration Register 2 (0x01) or for 100 kΩ thermistors by clearing this bit (default setting).
READING TEMPERATURE FROM THE ADT7466
It is important to note that temperature can be read from the ADT7466 as an 8-bit value (with 1°C resolution) or as a 10-bit value (with 0.25°C resolution). If only 1°C resolution is required, the temperature readings can be read at any time and in no particular order.
If the 10-bit measurement is required, this involves a 2-register read for each measurement. The extended resolution registers (0x08 and 0x09) should be read first. This causes all temperature reading registers to be frozen until all temperature reading registers have been read. This prevents an MSB reading from being updated while its 2 LSBs are being read and vice versa.

Measurement Sequence
The ADT7466 automatically measures each analog and temperature channel in the following round-robin sequence:
1. AIN1/TH1
2. AIN2(TH2)
3. V
CC
4. Remote Temperature 1 (D1)
5. Local Temperature
If AIN1 and AIN2 are configured for a second thermal diode, this is measured instead of the AIN1 and AIN 2 measurements, and the result stored in the AIN1 reading register (0x0A).

ADT7466
Analog Monitoring Cycle Time
The analog monitoring cycle begins when a 1 is written to the start bit (Bit 0) of Configuration Register 1 (0x00). The ADC measures each analog input in turn, and, as each measurement is completed, the result is automatically stored in the appropriate value register. This round-robin monitoring cycle continues until disabled by writing a 0 to Bit 0 of Configuration Register 1.
Since the ADC is normally left to free-run in this manner, the time to monitor all the analog inputs is normally not of interest, because the most recently measured value of any input can be read at any time.
For applications where the monitoring cycle time is important, it can easily be calculated from the measurement times of the individual channels. With averaging turned on, each measurement is taken 16 times and the averaged result is placed in the value register. The worst-case monitoring cycle times for averaging turned on and off is described in Table 15.
Fan tach measurements are made in parallel but independently and are not synchronized with the analog measurements.

ADDITIONAL ADC FUNCTIONS
A number of other functions are available on the ADT7466 to offer the systems designer increased flexibility.
Turn Off Averaging
For each temperature measurement read from a value register, 16 readings have actually been made internally and the results averaged before being placed into the value register. The user may want to take a very fast measurement, for example, of CPU temperature. Setting Bit 4 of Configuration Register 2 (0x01) turns averaging off.
Single-Channel ADC Conversions
Setting Bit 3 of Configuration Register 4 (Address 0x03) places the ADT7466 into single-channel ADC conversion mode. In this mode, the ADT7466 can be made to read a single temperature channel only. The selected input is read every
1.4 ms. The appropriate ADC channel is selected by writing to Bits 2:0 of Configuration Register 4 (Address 0x03).

High and low limits are associated with each measurement channel on the ADT7466. These limits can form the basis of system status monitoring; a status bit can be set for any out-of­limit condition and detected by polling the device. Alternatively,
interrupts can be generated to flag out-of-limit
ALERT conditions for a processor or microcontroller.
Voltage and temperature limits are only 8-bit values and are compared with the 8 MSBs of the voltage and temperature values.

The following tables list the 8-bit limits on the voltage limit and temperature limit registers of the ADT7466.

16-Bit Limits

The fan tach measurements are 16-bit results. The fan tach limits are also 16 bits, consisting of a high byte and low byte. Since fans running under speed or stalled are normally the only conditions of interest, only high limits exist for fan tachs. Since the fan tach period is actually being measured, exceeding the limit indicates a slow or stalled fan.

Out-of-Limit Comparisons
Once all limits have been programmed, ADT7466 monitoring can be enabled. The ADT7466 measures all parameters in round­robin format and sets the appropriate status bit for out-of-limit conditions. Comparisons are done differently depending on whether the measured value is being compared to a high or low limit.
A greater than comparison is performed when comparing with the high limit.
A less than or equal to comparison is performed when comparing with the low limit.
Status Registers
The results of limit comparisons are stored in Status Register 1 and Status Register 2. The status register bit for each channel reflects the status of the last measurement and limit comparison on that channel. If a measurement is within limits, the corre­sponding status register bit is cleared to 0. If the measurement is out-of-limits the corresponding status register bit is set to 1.
The state of the various measurement channels can be polled by reading the status registers over the serial bus. When Bit 7 (OOL) of Status Register 1 (0x10) is 1, an out-of-limit event has been flagged in Status Register 2. Therefore the user need only read Status Register 2 when this bit is set. Alternatively, the
output (Pin 14) can be used as an interrupt, which
ALERT automatically notifies the system supervisor of an out-of-limit
condition. Reading the status registers clears the appropriate status bit as long as the error condition that caused the interrupt has cleared. Status register bits are sticky, meaning that they remain set until read by software. Whenever a status bit is set, indicating an out-of-limit condition, it remains set even if the event that caused it cleared (until read). The only way to clear the status bit is to read the status register when the event clears.
Interrupt status mask registers (0x12, 0x13) allow individual interrupt sources to be masked from causing an
ALERT
.
However, if one of these masked interrupt sources goes out-of­limit, its associated status bit is set in the interrupt status registers.

FAN DRIVE
The ADT7466 contains two DACs to control fan speed. The full-scale output of these DACs is typically 2.2 V @ 2 mA, so they must be buffered in order to drive 5 V or 12 V fans. The output voltage of these DACs is controlled by data written to the DRIVE1 (0x40) and DRIVE2 (0x41) registers.
Since fans do not turn on below a certain drive voltage, a significant proportion of the DAC range would be unusable; however, four other registers associated with fan speed control help the user to avoid this problem.
Fan start-up voltage registers (0x30 and 0x31) determine the voltage initially applied to the fans at startup. This should be high enough to ensure that the fans start.
Minimum speed registers (0x32 and 0x33) determine the minimum voltage that is applied to the fans. This should be high enough to keep the fans turning and less than the voltage required to start them.
PWM OR SWITCH MODE FAN DRIVE
Linear dc speed controllers, such as the ones described previously, waste power, which is dissipated as heat in the power transistor. To save power and reduce heat dissipation, it may be desirable to control the fan speed with a more efficient dc-dc converter or a pulse width modulated (PWM) speed controller. In this case, the DRIVE outputs of the ADT7466 provide the reference voltage for this circuit. To maximize efficiency, the controller can be switched off completely whenever the Fan 1 drive value falls below the value in the V_FAN_MIN register. When this happens, the FAN1_ON output goes low.

CONTROLLER
The speed registers associated with automatic fan speed control (AFC) are the maximum speed registers (0x34 and 0x35). They allow the maximum output from the DACs to be limited to less than the full-scale output.
Some suitable fan drive circuits are shown in Figure 33 and Figure 34. Basically, voltage amplification is required to boost the full-scale output of the DAC to 5 V or 12 V, and the amplifier needs sufficient drive current to meet the drive requirements of the fan.
Note that as the external transistor increases the open-loop gain of the op amp, it may be necessary to add a capacitor around the feedback loop to maintain stability.

FAN SPEED MEASUREMENT
TACH Inputs
Pin 2 and Pin 4 are tach inputs intended for fan speed measurement. The ADT7466 can measure the speed of 3-wire fans. Each 3-wire fan has two supply wires and a tach output wire.
Signal conditioning in the ADT7466 accommodates the slow rise and fall times typical of fan tachometer outputs. The maximum input signal range is 0 V to 6.5 V, even when V less than 5 V. If these inputs are supplied from fan outputs that exceed 0 V to 6.5 V, either resistive attenuation of the fan signal or diode clamping must be included to keep inputs within an acceptable range.

If the fan output has a resistive pull-up to 12 V (or other voltage greater than 6.5 V), the fan output can be clamped with a Zener diode, as shown in Figure 37.

Fan Speed Measurement Rate
The fan tach readings are normally updated once every second.
The FAST bit (Bit 3) of Configuration Register 3 (0x02) updates the fan tach readings every 250 ms, when set to 1. If any of the fans are not being driven by a fan drive output, but are powered directly from 5 V or 12 V, its associated dc bit in Configuration Register 3 should be set. This allows tach readings to be taken on a continuous basis for fans connected directly to a dc source.
Calculating Fan Speed
Assuming a fan with two pulses/revolution (and two pulses/revolution being measured) fan speed is calculated by
Fan Speed (rpm) = (82000 × 60)/Fan Tach Reading
where Fan Tach Reading is the 16-bit fan tachometer reading.
For example, if
TACH1 High Byte (Reg. 0x49) = 0x17 TACH1 Low Byte (Reg. 0x48) = 0xFF
then fan speed in rpm is
Fan 1 TACH reading = 0x17FF = 6143 decimal rpm = (82000 × 60)/Fan 1 TACH reading rpm = (82000 × 60)/6143 = 800 = fan speed
Fan Pulses Per Revolution
Different fan models can output either 1, 2, 3, or 4 tach pulses per revolution. Once the number of fan tach pulses is determined, it can be programmed into the fan pulses per revolution register (0x39) for each fan. Alternatively, this register can be used to determine the number of pulses/revolution output by a given fan. By plotting fan speed measurements at 100% speed with different pulses/revolution settings, the smoothest graph with the lowest ripple determines the correct pulses/revolution value.

The ADT7466 has a unique fan spin-up function. It spins the fan with the fan start-up voltage until two tach pulses are detected on the tach input. Once two pulses are detected, the fan drive goes to the expected running value. The advantage of this is that fans have different spin-up characteristics and take different times to overcome inertia. The ADT7466 runs the fans just fast enough to overcome inertia and is quieter on spin-up than fans programmed to spin-up for a given spin-up time.
FAN START-UP TIMEOUT
To prevent false interrupts being generated as a fan spins up (since it is below running speed), the ADT7466 includes a fan start-up timeout function. This is the time limit allowed for two tach pulses to be detected on spin-up. For example, if a 2-second fan start-up timeout is chosen, and no tach pulses occur within two seconds of the start of spin-up, a fan fault is detected and flagged in Interrupt Status Register 1.
Start-Up Timeout Configuration (Reg. 0x38)
Bits 2:0 control the start-up timeout for DRIVE1. Bits 5:3 control the start-up timeout for DRIVE2.

ADT7466
AUTOMATIC FAN SPEED CONTROL
The ADT7466 has a local temperature sensor and a remote temperature channel, which can be connected to an on-chip diode-connected transistor on a CPU. In addition, the two analog input channels can be reconfigured for temperature measurement. Any or all of these temperature channels can be used as the basis for automatic fan speed control to drive fans according to system temperature. By running the fans at only the speed needed to maintain a desired temperature, acoustic noise is reduced. Reducing fan speed can also decrease system current consumption.
To use automatic fan control (AFC), a number of parameters must be set up.
Which Temperature Channel Controls Which Fan?
This is determined by the AFC configuration registers (0x05 and 0x06). AFC1 configuration register controls Fan 1, and AFC2 configuration register controls Fan 2. Setting bits in these registers decides which temperature channels controls the fan.
Table 29. AFC Configuration Registers
Bit Description
Bit 0 Fan controlled by TH1 or REM2 Bit 1 Fan controlled by TH2 Bit 2 Fan controlled by Remote Temperature 1 Bit 3 Fan controlled by local temperature Bit 4 Fan under manual control Bit 5 Fan at minimum speed Bit 6 Fan at start-up speed Bit 7 Fan at maximum speed
If more than one of the temperature channel Bits 0:3 are set, the channel that demands the highest fan speed takes control. When TH1 and TH2 are set up as AIN1 and AIN2, these pins still control the AFC loop if Bits 0:1 in the AFC configuration register are set. Bits 0:1 should not be set in analog input mode.
If the manual control bit is set, AFC is switched off and the DRIVE registers can be programmed manually. This overrides any setting of the temperature channel bits. The maximum RPM registers, 0x34 and 0x35, should be set to 0x00 when the fans are under manual control.
If the minimum speed bit is set, AFC is switched off and the fan runs at minimum speed. This overrides any setting of Bits 4:0.
If the start-up speed bit is set, AFC is switched off and the fan runs at start-up speed. This overrides any setting of Bits 5:0.
If the maximum speed bit is set, AFC is switched off and the fan runs at maximum speed. This overrides any setting of Bits 6:0.
Fan Start Voltage (V_FAN_ON)
This is the minimum drive voltage from the DAC at which a fan starts running. This depends on the parameters of the fan and the characteristics of the fan drive circuit.
Minimum Fan Speed (V_FAN_MIN)
This is the minimum drive voltage from the DAC at which a fan keeps running, which is lower than the voltage required to start it. This depends on the parameters of the fan and the characteristics of the fan drive circuit.
Maximum Fan Speed
For acoustic reasons it may be desirable to limit the maximum rpm of the fans. These values are programmed into the maximum fan speed registers (0x34 and 0x35). During AFC, the fan speed is monitored and is never allowed to exceed the programmed limit, even if the AFC loop demands it. However, the maximum fan speed limit can be overridden by a
event, which sets the fan drive to full scale (full speed) for emergency cooling.
THERM
Operating Temperature Range
The temperature range over which AFC operates can be programmed by using the TMIN and TRANGE registers.
TMIN is the temperature at which a fan starts and runs at minimum speed when in AFC mode. TRANGE is the temperature range over which AFC operates. Thus, if TMIN is set to 40°C and TRANGE is set to 20°C, the fan starts when the temperature exceeds 40°C and the fan reaches maximum speed at a temperature of 60°C.
Enhanced Acoustics
When fan speed is controlled automatically, a temperature event can cause the fan drive output to change instantaneously to a new value. The sudden subsequent change in fan speed can cause an audible noise pulse. To avoid this problem, the ADT7466 can be programmed so that the drive value changes in a series of small steps, using the enhanced acoustics register (0x36).
Bits 2:0 of this register allow eight step sizes from 1 to 48 bits to be selected for Fan 1. Bits 5:3 do the same for Fan 2. When automatic fan control requires a change in drive value, the value changes by the step size once every 250 ms until the final value is reached. For example, if the step size is 3 and the drive value changes from 137 to 224, the drive value takes 29 ms × 250 ms to reach its final value.
Enhanced acoustics for the Fan 1 output (DRIVE1) can be enabled by setting Bit 6 of the enhanced acoustics register, and by setting Bit 7 for Fan 2 (DRIVE2).
Rev. 0 | Page 29 of 48
ADT7466
AFC Loop Operation
The automatic fan speed control loop operates as follows.
Once the temperature exceeds T_MIN, the ADT7466 outputs the voltage V_FAN_ON on its DRIVE pin. For Fan 1, FAN1 ON is also asserted. When the fan starts rotating reliably, the drive voltage is reduced to V_FAN_MIN. Reliable startup is determined when two tachometer pulses are sensed on the tach input. As the measured temperature increases, the voltage output by the ADT7466 also increases linearly. The rate with which the voltage output (fan speed) increases is controlled by the T_RANGE parameter.
STARTING THE FAN
Under normal conditions, the V_FAN_ON register sets DRIVE at a voltage sufficient to start the fan rotating. Fan startup is confirmed after two tach pulses are generated.
1. Set the initial V_FAN_ON by BIOS.
2. Wait for two tach pulses (up to 2 seconds maximum).
3. If successful, set the drive to V_FAN_MIN and follow the
automatic slope.
If not successful, increase the V_FAN_ON voltage on DRIVE by a programmed value (set in step size register) and return to Step 1. This sequence can be repeated five times or until DRIVE is set at full scale. If the fan still fails to start, the

XOR TEST MODE
The ADT7466 includes an XOR tree test mode. This mode is useful for in-circuit test equipment at board-level testing. By applying stimulus to the pins included in the XOR tree, it is possible to detect opens or shorts on the system board. Figure 44 shows the signals that are exercised in the XOR tree test mode.
The XOR tree test is invoked by setting Bit 0 (XEN) of the XOR tree test enable register (0x42). Pin 7 should be configured as a PROCHOT Register 3 (0x02). The

REGISTER DETAILS
Configuration 1
Table 31. Register 0x00—Configuration Register 1 (Power-On Default = 0x01)
Bit No. Name Read/Write Description
0 STRT Read/Write Logic 1 enables monitoring, and PWM control outputs based on the limit settings programmed.
Logic 0 disables monitoring and PWM control based on the default power-up limit settings. The limit values programmed are preserved even if a Logic 0 is written to this bit and the default settings are enabled. This bit becomes read only and cannot be changed once Bit 1 (LOCK bit) is written. All limit registers should be programmed by BIOS before setting this bit to 1. Lockable.
1 LOCK Write Once
2 RDY Read Only
3 FSPD Read/Write When this bit is 1, it runs all fans at full speed. Power-on default is 0. This bit is not locked at any time. 4 FSPDIS Read/Write
5 TODIS Read/Write
6 VCC Read/Write When this bit is 1, the ADT7466 rescales its VCC pin to measure a 5 V supply.
7 OBIN Read/Write When this bit is 0 (default) temperature data format is binary.
Configuration 2
This register becomes read only when the Configuration Register 1 lock bit is set to 1. Additional attempts to write to this register have no effect.
Table 32. Register 0x01—Configuration Register 2 (Power-On Default = 0x00)
Bit No. Name Read/Write Description
0 RTYPE Read/Write
1 CURR Read/Write This bit sets the thermal diode current. It should be left at 0. 2 REFZ Read/Write Setting this bit makes the REFOUT pin high impedance. 3 Unused – Unused. Write ignored. Reads back 0. 4 AVG Read/Write
5 RATE Read/Write
6 SHDN Read/Write
7 REM2 Read/Write
Logic 1 locks all limit values to their current settings. Once this bit is set, all lockable registers become read only and cannot be modified until the ADT7466 is powered down and powered up again. This prevents rogue programs such as viruses from modifying critical system limit settings. Lockable.
This bit is set to 1 by the ADT7466 to indicate that the device is fully powered up and ready to begin systems monitoring.
Logic 1 disables fan spin-up for two tach pulses. Instead, the DAC outputs go high for the entire fan spin-up timeout selected.
When this bit is 1, the SMBus timeout feature is disabled. This allows the ADT7466 to be used with SMBus controllers that cannot handle SMBus timeouts. Lockable.
When this bit is 0, the ADT7466 measures V
When this bit is 1, format is offset binary.
When this bit is cleared (default), thermistor normalization is optimized for 100 kΩ thermistors. When this bit is set, it is optimized for 10 kΩ thermistors.
When AVG is 1, averaging on the temperature and voltage measurements is turned off. This allows measurements on each channel to be made much faster.
If averaging is turned off and measurement set to single channel mode, the RATE bit sets the conversion rate. 0 = 32 conversions/second; 1 = 4 conversions/second.
When SHDN is 1, the ADT7466 goes into shutdown mode. Both DAC outputs are set to 0 V to switch off both fans. The DAC registers read back 0x00 to indicate that the fans are not being driven.
Setting this bit configures AIN1 and AIN2 for connection of a second thermal diode. Setting this bit overrides THER1 and THER2 in Configuration Register 3.

Fan Tachometer Reading
These registers count the number of 12.43 µs periods (based on a local 82 kHz clock) that occur between a number of consecutive fan tach pulses (default = 2). The number of tach pulses used to count can be changed by using the fan pulses per revolution register (0x39). This allows the fan speed to be accurately measured. Since a valid fan tachometer reading requires two bytes to be read, the low byte must be read first. Both the low and high bytes are then frozen until read. At power-on, these registers contain 0x0000 until such time as the first valid fan tach measurement is read into these registers. This prevents false interrupts from occurring while the fans are spinning up.
A count of 0xFFFF indicates that a fan is
Stalled or blocked (object jamming the fan).
Failed (internal circuitry destroyed).
