ADT7476 Remote Thermal Controller and Voltage Monitor The ADT7476 controller is a thermal monitor and multiple PWM fan controller for noise-sensitive or power-sensitive applications requiring active system cooling. The ADT7476 can drive a fan using either a low or high frequency drive signal and can monitor the temperature of up to two remote sensor diodes plus its own internal temperature. The part also measures and controls the speed of up to four fans, so the fans 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 THERM input. The ADT7476 also provides critical thermal protection to the system using the bidirectional THERM pin as an output to prevent system or component overheating.

The device communicates with the system via a serial system management bus. The serial bus controller has a serial data line for reading and writing addresses and data (Pin 1), and an input line for the serial clock (Pin 2). All control and programming functions for the ADT7476 are performed over the serial bus. In addition, a pin can be reconfigured as an SMBALERT output to signal out-of-limit conditions. on all temperature channels. • The ADT7476 defaults to twos complement • • • • Feature Comparisons Between ADT7476 and ADT7468 • Dynamic TMIN, dynamic operating point, and • • • • • Recommended Implementation associated registers are no longer available in the ADT7476. The following related registers are gone: ♦ Calibration Control 1 (0x36) ♦ Calibration Control 2 (0x37) ♦ Operating Point (0x33, 0x34, and 0x35) Previously (in the ADT7468), TRANGE defined the slope of the automatic fan control algorithm. TRANGE now defines a true temperature range (in the ADT7476). Acoustic filtering is now assigned to temperature zones, not to fans. Available smoothing times have been increased for better acoustic performance. Temperature measurements are now made with two switching currents instead of three. SRC is not available in the ADT7476. High frequency PWM can now be enabled/disabled on each PWM output individually. THERM can now be enabled/disabled on each temperature channel individually. FRONT CHASSIS FAN REAR CHASSIS FAN temperature measurement mode. Some pins have swapped/added functions. The powerup routine for the ADT7476 is simplified. The ADT7476 has a higher maximum input voltage TACH/PWM spec, supporting a wider range of fans. VCORE_LOW_ENABLE has been reallocated to Bit 7 of Configuration Register 1 (0x40). Configuring the ADT7476 as shown in Figure 13 allows the system designer to use the following features: • Two PWM outputs for fan control of up to three fans (the front and rear chassis fans are connected in parallel). • Three TACH fan speed measurement inputs. • VCC measured internally through Pin 4. • CPU temperature measured using Remote 1 temperature channel. • Remote temperature zone measured through Remote 2 temperature channel. • Local temperature zone measured through the internal temperature channel. • Bidirectional THERM pin. This feature allows Intel® Pentium® 4 PROCHOT monitoring and can function as an overtemperature THERM output. It can alternatively be programmed as an SMBALERT system interrupt output.

ADT7476 Configuration www.onsemi.com 8 ADT7476 Serial Bus Interface VCC Control of the ADT7476 is carried out using the serial system management bus (SMBus). The ADT7476 is connected to this bus as a slave device, under the control of a master controller. The ADT7476 has a 7-bit serial bus address. When the device is powered up with Pin 13 (PWM3/ADDREN) high, the ADT7476 has a default SMBus address of 0101110 or 0x2E. The read/write bit must be added to get the 8-bit address. If more than one ADT7476 is to be used in a system, each ADT7476 is placed in ADDR SELECT mode by strapping Pin 13 low on powerup. The logic state of Pin 14 then determines the device’s SMBus address. The logic of these pins is sampled on powerup. The device address is sampled on powerup and latched on the first valid SMBus transaction, more precisely on the low-to-high transition at the beginning of the eighth SCL pulse, when the serial bus address byte matches the selected slave address. The selected slave address is chosen using the ADDREN pin/ADDR SELECT pin. Any attempted changes in the address have no effect after this. ADT7476 ADDR SELECT PWM3/ ADDREN Pin 14 State Address 0 Low (10 kW to GND) 0101100 (0x2C) 0 High (10 kW Pullup) 0101101 (0x2D) 1 Don’t Care 0101110 (0x2E) ADDR SELECT PWM3/ ADDREN 14 NOTE THAT IF THE ADT7476 IS PLACED INTO ADDR SELECT MODE, PINS 13 AND 14 CANNOT BE USED AS THE ALTERNATE FUNCTIONS (PWM3, TACH4/THERM) UNLESS THE CORRECT CIRCUIT IS MUXED IN AT THE CORRECT TIME OR DESIGNED TO HANDLE THESE DUAL FUNCTIONS. Figure 17. Unpredictable SMBus Address if Pin 13 is Unconnected The ability to make hardwired changes to the SMBus slave address allows the user to avoid conflicts with other devices sharing the same serial bus, for example, if more than one ADT7476 is used in a system. The serial bus protocol operates as follows: 1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start condition, which is 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 eight bits, consisting of a 7-bit address (MSB first), plus a R/W bit, which determine the direction of the data transfer, that is, whether data is written to or read from the slave device. The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted address responds by pulling the data line low during the low period before the ninth 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/W bit is a 0, the master writes to the slave device. If the R/W bit is a 1, the master reads from the slave device. 2. Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses, eight 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. A low-to-high transition, when the clock is high, can be interpreted as a stop signal. The number of data bytes transmitted over the serial bus in a single read or write operation is limited only by what the master and slave devices can handle. 3. 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 10 kW 13 ADDRESS = 0x2E Figure 14.

SMBus Address = 0x2D (Pin 14 = 1) www.onsemi.com 9 ADT7476 When reading data from a register, there are two possibilities: 1. If the ADT7476’s address pointer register value is unknown, or not the desired value, then it must first be set to the correct value before data can be read from the desired data register. This is done by performing a write to the ADT7476 as before, but only the data byte containing the register address is sent, because no data is written to the register (see Figure 19). A read operation is then performed consisting of the serial bus address; R/W bit set to 1, followed by the data byte read from the data register (see Figure 20.) 2. If the address pointer register is already known to be at the desired address, data can be read from the corresponding data register without first writing to the address pointer register (see Figure 20). 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 then 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. However, it is not possible to mix read and write in one operation because the type of operation is determined at the beginning and cannot subsequently be changed without starting a new operation. In the ADT7476, write operations contain either one or two bytes, and read operations contain one byte. To write data to one of the device data registers or read data from it, the address pointer register must be set so the correct data register is addressed. Then, data can be written into that register or read from it. The first byte of a write operation always contains an address stored in the address pointer register. If data is to be written to the device, then the write operation contains a second data byte that is written to the register selected by the address pointer register. This write operation is illustrated in Figure 18. The device address is sent over the bus, and then R/W is set to 0. This is followed by two data bytes. The first data 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. 1 It is possible to read a data byte from a data register without first writing to the address pointer register, if the address pointer register is already at the correct value. However, it is not possible to write data to a register without writing to the address pointer register, because the first data byte of a write is always written to the address pointer register. In addition to supporting the send byte and receive byte protocols, the ADT7476 also supports the read byte protocol. See Intel’s System Management Bus Specifications Revision 2 for more information. If several read or write operations must be performed in succession, the master can send a repeat start condition instead of a stop condition to begin a new operation. 9 9 1 SCL 0 SDA 1 START BY MASTER 0 1 1 A1 A0 R/W D7 FRAME 1 SERIAL BUS ADDRESS BYTE D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 ACK.

The ones used in the ADT7476 are discussed below. The following abbreviations are used in the diagrams: • S – START • P – STOP • R – READ • W– WRITE • A – ACKNOWLEDGE • A – NO ACKNOWLEDGE This operation is illustrated in Figure 22. 1 2 3 SLAVE S ADDRESS W A 4 5 6 REGISTER ADDRESS A DATA 7 8 A P Figure 22. Single-byte Write to a Register The ADT7476 uses the following SMBus write protocols. Send Byte Read Operations 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 command code. 5. The slave asserts ACK on SDA. 6. The master asserts a stop condition on SDA, and the transaction ends. The ADT7476 uses the following SMBus read protocols. Receive Byte This operation is useful when repeatedly reading a single register. The register address is set up beforehand. In this operation, the master device receives a single byte from 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 read bit (high). 3. The addressed slave device asserts ACK on SDA. 4. The master receives a data byte. 5. The master asserts NO ACK on SDA. 6. The master asserts a stop condition on SDA, and the transaction ends. For the ADT7476, the send byte protocol is used to write a register address to RAM for a subsequent single-byte read from the same address. This operation is illustrated in Figure 21. 1 2 3 SLAVE S W A ADDRESS 4 5 6 REGISTER ADDRESS A P In the ADT7476, the receive byte protocol is used to read a single byte of data from a register whose address has previously been set by a send byte or write byte operation. This operation is illustrated in Figure 23. Figure 21. Setting a Register Address for Subsequent Read 1 If the master is required to read data from the register immediately after setting up the address, it can assert a repeat start condition immediately after the final ACK and carry out a single byte read without asserting an intermediate stop condition. 2 3 SLAVE S ADDRESS R A 4 5 6 DATA A P Figure 23. Single-byte Read from a Register Alert Response Address Alert response address (ARA) is a feature of SMBus devices, allowing an interrupting device to identify itself to the host when multiple devices exist on the same bus. The SMBALERT output can be used as either an interrupt output or an SMBALERT. One or more outputs can be connected to a common SMBALERT line connected to the Write Byte In this operation, the master device sends a command byte and one data byte to the 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). www.onsemi.com 11 ADT7476 master. If a device’s SMBALERT line goes low, the following procedure occurs: 1. SMBALERT is pulled low. 2. The master initiates a read operation and sends the alert response address (ARA = 0001 100). This is a general call address that must not be used as a specific device address. 3. The device whose SMBALERT output is low responds to the alert response address, and the master reads its device address. The address of this device is now known and can be interrogated per usual. 4. If more than one device’s SMBALERT output is low, the one with the lowest device address has priority in accordance with normal SMBus arbitration. 5. Once the ADT7476 responds to the alert response address, the master must read the status registers, and SMBALERT is cleared only if the error condition goes away. which has a resolution of 10 bits. The basic input range is 0 V to 2.25 V, but the inputs have built−in attenuators to allow measurement of 2.5 V, 3.3 V, 5.0 V, 12 V, and the processor core voltage VCCP without any external components. To allow the tolerance of these supply voltages, the ADC produces an output of 3/4 full scale (768 dec or 300 hex) for the nominal input voltage, giving it adequate headroom to cope with overvoltages. Input Circuitry The internal structure for the analog inputs is shown in Figure 24 The input circuit consists of an input protection diode, an attenuator, plus a capacitor to form a first-order low-pass filter that gives input immunity to high frequency noise. 183.6 kW +12VIN 30 kW 93 kW +5VIN SMBus Timeout 47 kW The ADT7476 includes an SMBus timeout feature. If there is no SMBus activity for 35 ms, the ADT7476 assumes the bus is locked and 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 if necessary, it can be disabled. [6] TODIS 30 pF 68 kW VCC 71 kW 30 pF MUX 45 kW +2.5VIN Table 6.

CONFIGURATION REGISTER 2 (REG. 0X73) Voltage measurements can be made with higher accuracy using the extended resolution registers (0x76 and 0x77). Whenever the extended resolution registers are read, the corresponding data in the voltage measurement registers (0x20 to 0x24) is locked until their data is read. That is, if extended resolution is required, then the extended resolution register must be read first, immediately followed by the appropriate voltage measurement register. Bit [4] 1: Averaging Off [5] 1: Bypass Input Attenuators [6] 1: Single-channel Convert Mode [7:5] Selects ADC channel for single-channel convert mode. Single-channel ADC Conversion A number of other functions are available on the ADT7476 to offer the system designer increased flexibility. While single-channel mode is intended as a test mode that can be used to increase sampling times for a specific channel, and therefore helps to analyze that channel’s performance in greater detail, it can also have other applications. Setting Bit 6 of Configuration Register 2 (0x73) places the ADT7476 into single-channel ADC conversion mode. In this mode, the ADT7476 can only read a single voltage channel. The selected voltage input is read every 0.7 ms. The appropriate ADC channel is selected by writing to Bits [7:5] of the TACH1 minimum high byte register (0x55). Turn-off Averaging For each voltage/temperature measurement read from a value register, 16 readings have been made internally and the results averaged before being placed into the value register. When faster conversions are needed, setting Bit 4 of Configuration Register 2 (0x73) turns averaging off. This effectively gives a reading 16 times faster but the reading can be noisier. The default round robin cycle time takes 146.5 ms. Table 9.

These are digital inputs that can be read back through the VID/GPIO register (0x43) to determine the processor voltage required or the system being used. Five VID code inputs support VRM9.x solutions. In addition, Pin 21 (12 V input) can be reconfigured as a sixth VID input to satisfy future VRM requirements. The ADT7476 has a VID code change detect function. When Pin 21 is configured as the VID5 input, VID code changes are detected and reported back by the ADT7476. Bit 0 of Interrupt Status Register 2 (0x42) is the 12 V/VC bit and denotes a VID change when set. The VID code change bit is set when the logic states on the VID inputs are different than they were 11 ms previously. The change of VID code is used to generate an SMBALERT interrupt. If an SMBALERT interrupt is not required, Bit 0 of Interrupt Mask Register 2 (0x75), when set, prevents SMBALERTs from occurring on VID code changes. VID/GPIO Register (0x43) [0] = VID0, reflects logic state of Pin 5. [1] = VID1, reflects logic state of Pin 6. [2] = VID2, reflects logic state of Pin 7. [3] = VID3, reflects logic state of Pin 8. [4] = VID4, reflects logic state of Pin 19. [5] = VID5, reconfigurable 12 V input. This bit reads 0 when Pin 21 is configured as the 12 V input. This bit reflects the logic state of Pin 21 when the pin is configured as VID5. Interrupt Status Register 2 (0x42) [0] 12 V/VC = 0, if Pin 21 is configured as VID5, Logic 0 denotes no change in VID code within the last 11 ms. [0] 12 V/VC = 1, if Pin 21 is configured as VID5, Logic 1 means that a change has occurred on the VID code inputs within the last 11 ms. An SMBALERT is generated, if this function is enabled. VID Code Input Threshold Voltage The switching threshold for the VID code inputs is approximately 1.0 V. To enable future compatibility, it is possible to reduce the VID code input threshold to 0.6 V. Bit 6 (THLD) of the VID/GPIO register (0x43) controls the VID input threshold voltage. Programming the GPIOs The ADT7476 follows an upgrade path from the ADM1027 to the ADT7476. In order to maintain consistency between versions, it is necessary to omit references to GPIO5. As a result, there are six GPIOs as follows: GPIO0, GPIO1, GPIO2, GPIO3, GPIO4, and GPIO6. Setting Bit 4 of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C) to 1 enables GPIO functionality. This turns all pins configured as VID inputs into general-purpose outputs. Writing to the corresponding VID bit in the VID/GPIO register (0x43) sets the polarity for the corresponding GPIO. GPIO6 can be programmed independently as, for example, an input or output, using Bits [3:2] of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C). VID/GPIO Register (0x43) [6] THLD = 0, VID switching threshold = 1.0 V, VOL < 0.8 V, VIH > 1.7 V, VMAX = 3.3 V. [6] THLD = 1, VID switching threshold = 0.6 V, VOL < 0.4 V, VIH > 0.8 V, VMAX = 3.3 V. Reconfiguring Pin 21 as VID5 Input Pin 21 can be reconfigured as a sixth VID code input (VID5) for VRM10 compatible systems. Because the pin is configured as VID5, it is not possible to monitor a 12 V supply. Bit 7 of the VID/GPIO register (0x43) determines the function of Pin 21. System or BIOS software can read the state of Bit 7 to determine whether the system is designed to monitor 12 V or a sixth VID input. Temperature Measurement Method Local Temperature Measurement The ADT7476 contains an on-chip band gap temperature sensor whose output is digitized by the on-chip, 10-bit ADC. The 8-bit MSB temperature data is stored in the temperature registers (Addresses 0x25, 0x26, and 0x27). Because both positive and negative temperatures can be measured, the temperature data is stored in Offset 64 format or twos complement format, as shown in Table 14 and Table 15. Theoretically, the temperature sensor and ADC can measure temperatures from −63°C to +127°C (or −61°C to +191°C in the extended temperature range) with a resolution of 0.25°C. However, this exceeds the operating temperature range of the device, so local temperature measurements outside the ADT7476 operating temperature range are not possible. VID/GPIO Register (0x43) [7] VIDSEL = 0, Pin 21 functions as a 12 V measurement input. Software can read this bit to determine that there are five VID inputs being monitored. Bit 5 of VID/GPIO Register (0x43) always reads back 0. Bit 0 of Interrupt Status Register 2 (0x42) reflects 12 V out-of-limit measurements. [7] VIDSEL = 1, Pin 21 functions as the sixth VID code input (VID5). Software can read this bit to determine that there are six VID inputs being monitored. Bit 5 of Register 0x43 reflects the logic state of Pin 21. Bit 0 of Interrupt Status Register 2 (0x42) reflects VID code changes. www.onsemi.com 16 ADT7476 Remote Temperature Measurement Table 14. TWOS COMPLEMENT TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT Temperature The ADT7476 can measure the temperature of two remote diode sensors or diode-connected transistors connected to Pin 17 and Pin 18, or Pin 15 and Pin 16. The forward voltage of a diode or diode-connected transistor operated at a constant current exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of about –2 mV/°C. Unfortunately, the absolute value of VBE varies from device to device, and individual calibration is required to null this out. As a result, this technique is unsuitable for mass production. The technique used in the ADT7476 is to measure the change in VBE when the device is operated at two different currents. This is given by: Digital Output (10-bit) (Note 1) –128°C 1000 0000 00 (Diode Fault) –50°C 1100 1110 00 –25°C 1110 0111 00 –10°C 1111 0110 00 0°C 0000 0000 00 +10.25°C 0000 1010 01 +25.5°C 0001 1001 10 +50.75°C 0011 0010 11 +75°C 0100 1011 00 +100°C 0110 0100 00 +125°C 0111 1101 00 +127°C 0111 1111 00 DV BE + kT q Table 15. EXTENDED RANGE, TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT Figure 25 shows the input signal conditioning used to measure the output of a remote temperature sensor. This figure shows the external sensor as a substrate transistor, which is provided on some microprocessors for temperature monitoring. It could also be a discrete transistor such as a 2N3904/2N3906. If a discrete transistor is used, the collector is not grounded and is linked to the base. If a PNP transistor is used, the base is connected to the D– input and the emitter to the D+ input. If an NPN transistor is used, the emitter is connected to the D– input and the base to the D+ input. Figure 26 and Figure 27 show how to connect the ADT7476 to an NPN or PNP transistor for temperature measurement. 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.

Signal Conditioning for Remote Diode Temperature Sensors www.onsemi.com 17 ADT7476 To reduce the error due to variations in both substrate and discrete transistors, a number of factors should be taken into consideration: • The ideality factor, nf, of the transistor is a measure of the deviation of the thermal diode from ideal behavior. The ADT7476 is trimmed for an nf value of 1.008. Use the following equation to calculate the error introduced at a temperature T (°C), when using a transistor whose nf does not equal 1.008 (see the processor’s data sheet for the nf values): (eq. 2) DT + (nf * 1.008) ǒ273.15 K ) TǓ ADT7476 2N3904 NPN D+ D− Figure 26. Measuring Temperature by Using an NPN Transistor ADT7476 D+ 2N3906 PNP D− Figure 27. Measuring Temperature by Using a PNP Transistor To measure DVBE, the sensor switches between operating currents of I and N × I. The resulting waveform passes through a 65 kHz low-pass filter to remove noise and through a chopper-stabilized amplifier. The amplifier performs the amplification and rectification of the waveform to produce a dc voltage proportional to DVBE. This voltage is measured by the ADC to give a temperature output in 10-bit, twos complement format. To further reduce the effects of noise, digital filtering is performed by averaging the results of 16 measurement cycles. A remote temperature measurement takes nominally 38 ms. The results of remote temperature measurements are stored in 10-bit, twos complement format, as illustrated in Table 10. The extra resolution for the temperature measurements is held in the Extended Resolution Register 2 (0x77). This gives temperature readings with a resolution of 0.25°C. • To factor this in, the user can write the DT value to the offset register. The ADT7476 then automatically adds it to or subtracts it from the temperature measurement. Some CPU manufacturers specify the high and low current levels of the substrate transistors. The high current level of the ADT7476, IHIGH, is 180 mA, and the low level current, ILOW, is 11 mA. If the ADT7476 current levels do not match the current levels specified by the CPU manufacturer, it could be necessary to remove an offset. The CPU’s data sheet advises whether this offset needs to be removed and how to calculate it. This offset can be programmed to the offset register. It is important to note that if more than one offset must be considered, then the algebraic sum of these offsets must be programmed to the offset register. If a discrete transistor is used with the ADT7476, the best accuracy is obtained by choosing devices according to the following criteria: • Base-emitter voltage greater than 0.25 V at 11 mA, at the highest operating temperature. • Base-emitter voltage less than 0.95 V at 180 mA, at the lowest operating temperature. • Base resistance less than 100 W. • Small variation in the current gain, hFE, (approximately 50 to 150) that indicates tight control of VBE characteristics. Noise Filtering For temperature sensors operating in noisy environments, previous practice placed a capacitor across the D+ pin and the D− pin to help combat the effects of noise. However, large capacitances affect the accuracy of the temperature measurement, leading to a recommended maximum capacitor value of 1,000 pF. This capacitor reduces the noise but does not eliminate it, which makes using the sensor difficult in a very noisy environment. In most cases, a capacitor is not required because differential inputs by their very nature have a high immunity to noise. Transistors, such as 2N3904, 2N3906, or equivalents in SOT−23 packages, are suitable devices to use. Nulling Out Temperature Errors As CPUs run faster, it is more difficult to avoid high frequency clocks when routing the D+/D– traces around a system board. Even when recommended layout guidelines are followed, some temperature errors can still be attributable to noise coupled onto the D+/D– lines. Constant high frequency noise usually attenuates, or increases, temperature measurements by a linear, constant value. The ADT7476 has temperature offset registers (0x70 and 0x72) for the Remote 1 and Remote 2 temperature channels. By doing a one-time calibration of the system, the user can determine the offset caused by system board noise and null it out using the offset registers. The offset registers Factors Affecting Diode Accuracy Remote Sensing Diode The ADT7476 is designed to work with substrate transistors built into processors or with discrete transistors. Substrate transistors are generally PNP types with the collector connected to the substrate. Discrete types can be either PNP or NPN transistors connected as a diode (base-shorted to the collector). If an NPN transistor is used, the collector and base are connected to D+ and the emitter to D−. If a PNP transistor is used, the collector and base are connected to D− and the emitter is connected to D+. www.onsemi.com 18 ADT7476 automatically add a twos complement 8-bit reading to every temperature measurement. Changing Bit 1 of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C) changes the resolution and therefore, the range of the temperature offset as either having a −63°C to +127°C range with a resolution of 1°C or having a −63°C to +64°C range with a resolution of 0.5°C. This temperature offset can be used to compensate for linear temperature errors introduced by noise. Table 19. TEMPERATURE LIMIT REGISTERS Table 16.

If only 1°C resolution is required, the temperature readings can be read back at any time and in no particular order. If the 10-bit measurement is required, this involves a 2-register read for each measurement. Extended Resolution Register 2 (0x77) should be read first. This causes all temperature reading registers to be frozen until all temperature reading registers have been read from. This prevents an MSB reading from being updated while its two LSBs are being read and vice versa. ADT7463/ADT7476 Backwards Compatible Mode By setting Bit 0 of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C), all temperature measurements are stored in the zone temperature reading registers (0x25, 0x26, and 0x27) in twos complement in the −63°C to +127°C range. The temperature limits must be reprogrammed in twos complement. If a twos complement temperature below −63°C is entered, the temperature is clamped to −63°C. In this mode, the diode fault condition remains −128°C = 1000 0000, while in the extended temperature range (−63°C to +191°C), the fault condition is represented by −64°C = 0000 0000. Additional ADC Functions for Temperature Measurement A number of other functions are available on the ADT7476 to offer the system designer increased flexibility. Table 17.

Sometimes it is necessary to take a very fast measurement. Setting Bit 4 of Configuration Register 2 (0x73) turns averaging off. The default round robin cycle time takes 146.5 ms. Table 18.

In this mode, the ADT7476 can be made to read a single temperature channel only. The appropriate ADC channel is selected by writing to Bits [7:5] of the TACH1 minimum high byte register (0x55). Limit Values Associated with each measurement channel on the ADT7476 are high and low limits. These can form the basis of system status monitoring; a status bit can be set for any out-of-limit condition and is detected by polling the device. Alternatively, SMBALERT interrupts can be generated to flag out-of-limit conditions to a processor or microcontroller. Table 22.

Overtemperature Events Overtemperature events on any of the temperature channels can be detected and dealt with automatically in automatic fan speed control mode. Register 0x6A to Register 0x6C are the THERM temperature limits. When a temperature exceeds its THERM temperature limit, all PWM outputs run at the maximum PWM duty cycle (Register 0x38, Register 0x39, and Register 0x3A). This effectively runs the fans at the fastest allowed speed. The fans run at this speed until the temperature drops below THERM minus hysteresis. This can be disabled by setting Bit 2, the boost bit, in Configuration Register 3 (0x78). The hysteresis value for the THERM temperature limit is the value programmed into the hysteresis registers (0x6D and 0x6E).

Because the fan TACH period is actually being measured, exceeding the limit indicates a slow or stalled fan. 100% Figure 28. THERM Temperature Limit Operation THERM can be disabled on specific temperature channels using Bits [7:5] of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C). THERM can also be disabled by: • Writing −64°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in Offset 64 mode. • Writing −128°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in twos complement mode. www.onsemi.com 20 ADT7476 (5 Table 27.

The ADT7476 measures all voltage and temperature measurements in round robin format and sets the appropriate status bit for out-of-limit conditions. TACH measurements are not part of this round robin cycle. Comparisons are done differently depending on whether the measured value is being compared to a high or low limit. High Limit: > Comparison Performed Low Limit: ≤ Comparison Performed Voltage and temperature channels use a window comparator for error detecting and, therefore, have high and low limits. Fan speed measurements use only a low limit. This fan limit is needed only in manual fan control mode. Analog Monitoring Cycle Time The analog monitoring cycle begins when a 1 is written to the start bit (Bit 0) of Configuration Register 1 (0x40). 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 unless disabled by writing a 0 to Bit 0 of Configuration Register 1. As the ADC is normally left to free-run in this manner, the time taken to monitor all the analog inputs is normally not of interest, because the most recently measured value of any input can be read out at any time. For applications where the monitoring cycle time is important, it can easily be calculated. The total number of channels measured is: • Four Dedicated Supply Voltage Inputs • Supply Voltage (VCC Pin) • Local Temperature • Two Remote Temperatures As mentioned previously, the ADC performs round robin conversions and takes 11 ms for each voltage measurement, 12 ms for a local temperature reading, and 39 ms for each remote temperature reading. The total monitoring cycle time for averaged voltage and temperature monitoring is, therefore, nominally: www.onsemi.com 21 11) ) 12 ) (2 39) + 145 ms (eq. 3) ADT7476 Fan TACH measurements are made in parallel and are not synchronized with the analog measurements in any way. Table 29. INTERRUPT STATUS REGISTER 2 (0X42) Status Registers The results of limit comparisons are stored in Interrupt Status Register 1 and Interrupt 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. In Bit 7 (OOL) of Interrupt Status Register 1 (0x41), 1 means an out-of-limit event has been flagged in Interrupt Status Register 2. This means the user also needs to read Interrupt Status Register 2. Alternatively, Pin 10 or Pin 14 can be configured as an SMBALERT output. This hard interrupt 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. Whenever a status bit is set, indicating an out-of-limit condition, it remains set even if the event that caused it has gone away (until read). The only way to clear the status bit is to read the status register after the event has gone away. Interrupt mask registers (0x74 and 0x75) allow individual interrupt sources to be masked from causing an SMBALERT. However, if one of these masked interrupt sources goes out-of-limit, its associated status bit is set in the status registers. Bit Mnemonic 7 D2 1 indicates an open or short on D2+/D2− inputs. Description 6 D1 1 indicates an open or short on D1+/D1− inputs. 5 F4P 1 indicates Fan 4 has dropped below minimum speed. Alternatively, indicates that the THERM limit has been exceeded, if the THERM function is used. Alternatively, indicates the status of GPIO6. 4 FAN3 1 indicates that Fan 3 has dropped below minimum speed. 3 FAN2 1 indicates that Fan 2 has dropped below minimum speed. 2 FAN1 1 indicates that Fan 1 has dropped below minimum speed. 1 OVT 1 indicates that a THERM overtemperature limit has been exceeded. 0 12 V/VC 1 indicates a 12 V high or low limit has been exceeded. If the VID code change function is used, this bit indicates a change in VID code on the VID0 to VID4 inputs. SMBALERT Interrupt Behavior The ADT7476 can be polled for status, or an SMBALERT interrupt can be generated for out-of-limit conditions. It is important to note how the SMBALERT output and status bits behave when writing interrupt handler software. HIGH LIMIT Table 28.

(TEMP BELOW LIMIT) TEMP BACK IN LIMIT 1 indicates that the Local Temperature High or Low Limit has been exceeded. 3 CLEARED ON READ Figure 29 shows how the SMBALERT output and sticky status bits behave. Once a limit is exceeded, the corresponding status bit is set to 1. The status bit remains set until the error condition subsides and the status register is read. The status bits are referred to as sticky because they remain set until read by software. This ensures that an out-of-limit event cannot be missed if the software is periodically polling the device. www.onsemi.com 22 ADT7476 the SMBALERT output and status bits to behave as shown in Figure 30. Note that: • The SMBALERT output remains low for the entire duration that a reading is out-of-limit and until the status register has been read. This has implications on how software handles the interrupt. • THERM overtemperature events are not sticky. They reset immediately after the overtemperature condition ceases. HIGH LIMIT TEMPERATURE “STICKY” STATUS BIT Handling SMBALERT Interrupts To prevent the system from being tied up servicing interrupts, it is recommend to handle the SMBALERT interrupt as follows: 1. Detect the SMBALERT assertion. 2. Enter the interrupt handler. 3. Read the status registers to identify the interrupt source. 4. Mask the interrupt source by setting the appropriate mask bit in the interrupt mask registers (0x74 and 0x75). 5. Take the appropriate action for a given interrupt source. 6. Exit the interrupt handler. 7. Periodically poll the status registers. If the interrupt status bit has cleared, reset the corresponding interrupt mask bit to 0.

How Masking the Interrupt Source Affects SMBALERT Output Masking Interrupt Sources Interrupt Mask Register 1 (0x74) and Interrupt Mask Register 2 (0x75) allow individual interrupt sources to be masked to prevent SMBALERT interrupts. NOTE: Masking an interrupt source prevents only the SMBALERT output from being asserted; the appropriate status bit is set normally. www.onsemi.com 23 ADT7476 chooses the required functionality by setting Bit 0 and Bit 1 of Configuration Register 4 (0x7D).

This can be useful for connecting to the PROCHOT output of a CPU to gauge system performance. When the THERM pin is driven low externally, the user can also set up the ADT7476 to run the fans at 100%. The fans run at 100% for the duration of time that the THERM pin is pulled low. This is done by setting the BOOST bit (Bit 2) in Configuration Register 3 (0x78) to 1. This works only if the fan is already running, for example, in manual mode, when the current duty cycle is above 0x00, or in automatic mode when the temperature is above TMIN. If the temperature is below TMIN or if the duty cycle in manual mode is set to 0x00, pulling the THERM low externally has no effect. See Figure 31 for more information. 1 masks SMBALERT for 12 V channel or for a VID code change, depending on the function used.

Asserting THERM Low as an Input in Automatic Fan Speed Control Mode www.onsemi.com 24 ADT7476 THERM Timer When using the THERM timer, be aware of the following: After a THERM timer read (0x79) 1. The contents of the timer are cleared on read. 2. The F4P bit (Bit 5) of Interrupt Status Register 2 needs to be cleared (assuming that the THERM timer limit has been exceeded). If the THERM timer is read during a THERM assertion, the following occurs: 1. The contents of the timer are cleared. 2. Bit 0 of the THERM timer is set to 1, because a THERM assertion is occurring. 3. The THERM timer increments from zero. 4. If the THERM timer limit register (0x7A) = 0x00, the F4P bit is set. The ADT7476 has an internal timer to measure THERM assertion time. For example, the THERM input can be connected to the PROCHOT output of a Pentium® 4 CPU to measure system performance. The THERM input can also be connected to the output of a trip-point temperature sensor. The timer is started on the assertion of the ADT7476’s THERM input and stopped when THERM is de-asserted. The timer counts THERM times cumulatively; that is, the timer resumes counting on the next THERM assertion. The THERM timer continues to accumulate THERM assertion times until the timer is read (where it is cleared), or until it reaches full scale. If the counter reaches full scale, it stops at that reading until cleared. The 8-bit THERM timer status register (0x79) is designed so that Bit 0 is set to 1 on the first THERM assertion. Once the cumulative THERM assertion time has exceeded 45.52 ms, Bit 1 of the THERM timer is set and Bit 0 now becomes the LSB of the timer with a resolution of 22.76 ms (see Figure 32). Generating SMBALERT Interrupts from THERM Timer Events The ADT7476 can generate SMBALERTs when a programmable THERM timer limit has been exceeded. This allows the system designer to ignore brief, infrequent THERM assertions, while capturing longer THERM timer events. Register 0x7A is the THERM timer limit register. This 8-bit register allows a limit from 0 sec (first THERM assertion) to 5.825 sec to be set before an SMBALERT is generated. The THERM timer value is compared with the contents of the THERM timer limit register. If the THERM timer value exceeds the THERM timer limit value, then the F4P bit (Bit 5) of Interrupt Status Register 2 is set and an SMBALERT is generated.

A value of 0x00 causes an SMBALERT to be generated on the first THERM assertion. 5. Select a THERM monitoring time. This value specifies how often OS- or BIOS-level software checks the THERM timer. For example, BIOS can read the THERM timer once an hour to determine the cumulative THERM assertion time. If, for example, the total THERM assertion time is <22.76 ms in Hour 1, >182.08 ms in Hour 2, and >5.825 sec in Hour 3, system performance is degrading significantly because THERM is asserting more frequently on an hourly basis. Alternatively, OS or BIOS level software can timestamp when the system is powered on. If an SMBALERT is generated due to the THERM timer limit being exceeded, another timestamp can be taken. The difference in time can be calculated for a fixed THERM timer limit time. For example, if it takes one week for a THERM timer limit of 2.914 sec to be exceeded, and the next time it takes only 1 hour, then a serious degradation in system performance has occurred. 1. Configure the desired pin as the THERM timer input. Setting Bit 1 (THERM timer enable) of Configuration Register 3 (0x78) enables the THERM timer monitoring functionality. This is disabled on Pin 14 and Pin 22 by default. Setting Bit 0 and Bit 1 (PIN14FUNC) of Configuration Register 4 (0x7D) enables THERM timer output functionality on Pin 22 (Bit 1 of Configuration Register 3, THERM, must also be set). Pin 14 can also be used as TACH4. 2. Select the desired fan behavior for THERM timer events. Assuming the fans are running, setting Bit 2 (BOOST bit) of Configuration Register 3 (0x78) causes all fans to run at 100% duty cycle whenever THERM is asserted. This allows fail-safe system cooling. If this bit is 0, the fans run at their current settings and are not affected by THERM events. If the fans are not already running when THERM is asserted, then the fans do not run to full speed. 3. Select whether THERM timer events should generate SMBALERT interrupts. Setting Bit 5 (F4P) of Mask Register 2 (0x75) or Bit 0 of Mask Register 1 (0x74), depending on which pins are configured as a THERM timer, masks SMBALERTs when the THERM timer limit value is exceeded. This bit should be cleared if SMBALERTs based on THERM events are required. 4. Select a suitable THERM limit value. This value determines whether an SMBALERT is Configuring the THERM Pin as an Output In addition to monitoring THERM as an input, the ADT7476 can optionally drive THERM low as an output. When PROCHOT is bidirectional, THERM can be used to throttle the processor by asserting PROCHOT. The user can preprogram system-critical thermal limits. If the temperature exceeds a thermal limit by 0.25°C, THERM asserts low. If the temperature is still above the thermal limit on the next www.onsemi.com 26 ADT7476 Additionally, Bit 3 of Configuration Register 4 (0x7D) can be used to select the PWM speed on a THERM event (100% or maximum PWM). Bit 2 in Configuration Register 4 (0x7D) can be set to disable THERM events from affecting the fans. monitoring cycle, THERM stays low. THERM remains asserted low until the temperature is equal to or below the thermal limit. Because the temperature for that channel is measured only once for every monitoring cycle, after THERM asserts, it is guaranteed to remain low for at least one monitoring cycle. The THERM pin can be configured to assert low, if the Remote 1, local, or Remote 2 THERM temperature limits are exceeded by 0.25°C. The THERM temperature limit registers are at Register 0x6A, Register 0x6B, and Register 0x6C, respectively. Setting Bits [5:7] of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C) enables the THERM output feature for the Remote 1, local, and Remote 2 temperature channels, respectively. Figure 34 shows how the THERM pin asserts low as an output in the event of a critical overtemperature. Fan Drive Using PWM Control The ADT7476 uses pulse-width modulation (PWM) to control fan speed. This relies on varying the duty cycle (or on/off ratio) of a square wave applied to the fan to vary the fan speed. The external circuitry required to drive a fan using PWM control is extremely simple. For 4-wire fans, the PWM drive might need only a pullup resistor. In many cases, the 4-wire fan PWM input has a built-in, pullup resistor. The ADT7476 PWM frequency can be set to a selection of low frequencies or a single high PWM frequency. The low frequency options are used for 3-wire fans, while the high frequency option is usually used with 4-wire fans. For 3-wire fans, a single N-channel MOSFET is the only drive device required. The specifications of the MOSFET depend on the maximum current required by the fan being driven and the input capacitance of the FET. Because a 10 kW (or greater) resistor must be used as a PWM pullup, an FET with large input capacitance can cause the PWM output to become distorted and adversely affect the fan control range. This is a requirement only when using high frequency PWM mode. Typical notebook fans draw a nominal 170 mA, so SOT devices can be used where board space is a concern. In desktops, fans typically draw 250 mA to 300 mA each. If you drive several fans in parallel from a single PWM output or drive larger server fans, the MOSFET must handle the higher current requirements. The only other stipulation is that the MOSFET should have a gate voltage drive, VGS < 3.3 V, for direct interfacing to the PWM output pin. The MOSFET should also have a low on resistance to ensure that there is not a significant voltage drop across the FET, which would reduce the voltage applied across the fan and, therefore, the maximum operating speed of the fan. Figure 35 shows how to drive a 3-wire fan using PWM control. THERM LIMIT TEMP THERM MONITORING CYCLE Figure 34. Asserting THERM as an Output, Based on Tripping THERM Limits An alternative method of disabling THERM is to program the THERM temperature limit to –63°C or less in Offset 64 mode, or −128°C or less in twos complement mode; that is, for THERM temperature limit values less than –63°C or –128°C, respectively, THERM is disabled. Enabling and Disabling THERM on individual Channels THERM can be enabled/disabled for individual or combinations of temperature channels using Bits [7:5] of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C). THERM Hysteresis Setting Bit 0 of Configuration Register 7 (0x11) disables THERM hysteresis. If THERM hysteresis is enabled and THERM is disabled (Bit 2 of Configuration Register 4, 0x7D), the THERM pin does not assert low when a THERM event occurs. If THERM hysteresis is disabled and THERM is disabled (Bit 2 of Configuration Register 4, 0x7D) and assuming the appropriate pin is configured as THERM), the THERM pin asserts low when a THERM event occurs. If THERM and THERM hysteresis are both enabled, the THERM output asserts as expected. 12 V 12 V 10 kW 10 kW TACH TACH 4.7 kW ADT7476 12 V FAN 1N4148 THERM LIMIT 0.255C 3.3 V 10 kW PWM THERM Operation in Manual Mode Q1 NDT3055L Figure 35.

Figure 35 uses a 10 kW pullup resistor for the TACH signal. This assumes that the TACH signal is an open-collector from the fan. In all cases, the TACH signal from the fan must be kept below 5.5 V maximum to prevent damaging the ADT7476. Figure 36 shows a fan drive circuit using an NPN transistor such as a general-purpose MMBT2222. While these devices are inexpensive, they tend to have much lower current handling capabilities and higher on resistance than MOSFETs. When choosing a transistor, care should be taken to ensure that it meets the fan’s current requirements. Ensure that the base resistor is chosen so that the transistor is saturated when the fan is powered on. Because the fan drive circuitry in 4-wire fans is not switched on or off, as with previous PWM driven/powered fans, the internal drive circuit is always on and uses the PWM input as a signal instead of a power supply. This enables the internal fan drive circuit to perform better than 3-wire fans, especially for high frequency applications. 12 V TACH measurements for fans are synchronized to particular PWM channels; for example, TACH1 is synchronized to PWM1. TACH3 and TACH4 are both synchronized to PWM3, so PWM3 can drive two fans. Alternatively, PWM3 can be programmed to synchronize TACH2, TACH3, and TACH4 to the PWM3 output. This allows PWM3 to drive two or three fans. In this case, the drive circuitry looks the same, as shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39. The SYNC bit in Register 0x62 enables this function. Synchronization is not required in high frequency mode when used with 4-wire fans. Table 34.

Figure 40. Planning for 3-wire Fans on a PCB TACH Inputs 5 V or12 V Pin 9, Pin 11, Pin 12, and Pin 14 (when configured as TACH inputs) are high impedance inputs intended for fan speed measurement. Signal conditioning in the ADT7476 accommodates the slow rise and fall times typical of fan tachometer outputs. The maximum input signal range is 0 V to 5.5 V, even though VCC is 3.3 V. In the event that these inputs are supplied from fan outputs that exceed 0 V to 5.5 V, either resistive attenuation of the fan signal or diode clamping must be included to keep inputs within an acceptable range. Figure 41 to Figure 44 show circuits for most common fan TACH outputs. If the fan TACH output has a resistive pullup to VCC, it can be connected directly to the fan input, as shown in Figure 41.

A 16-bit fan tachometer reading of 0xFFFF indicates that either the fan has stalled or is running very slowly (<100 RPM). The fan counter does not count the fan TACH output pulses directly because the fan speed could be less than 1,000 RPM, and it takes several seconds to accumulate a reasonably large and accurate count. Instead, the period of the fan revolution is measured by gating an on-chip 90 kHz oscillator into the input of a 16-bit counter for N periods of the fan TACH output (Figure 45), so the accumulated count is actually proportional to the fan tachometer period and inversely proportional to the fan speed. N, the number of pulses counted, is determined by the settings of TACH pulses per revolution register (0x7B). This register contains two bits for each fan, allowing one, two (default), three, or four TACH pulses to be counted. High Limit: > Comparison Performed Because the actual fan TACH period is being measured, falling below a fan TACH limit by 1 sets the appropriate status bit and can be used to generate an SMBALERT. Measuring fan TACH has the following caveat: When the ADT7476 starts up, TACH measurements are locked. In effect, an internal read of the low byte has been made for each TACH input. The net result of this is that all TACH readings are locked until the high byte is read from the corresponding TACH registers. All TACH related interrupts are also ignored until the appropriate high byte is read. Once the corresponding high byte has been read, TACH measurements are unlocked and interrupts are processed as normal. CLOCK PWM TACH Fan TACH Limit Registers 1 The fan TACH limit registers are 16-bit values consisting of two bytes. 2 3 Table 36. FAN TACH LIMIT REGISTERS 4 Register Figure 45.

When set, the FAST bit (Bit 3) of Configuration Register 3 (0x78) updates the fan TACH readings every 250 ms. DC Bits Reading Fan Speed from the ADT7476 If any of the fans are not being driven by a PWM channel but are powered directly from 5.0 V or 12 V, their 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. Once high frequency mode is enabled in 4-wire fans, the dc bits do not need to be set because this is automatically done internally. The measurement of fan speeds involves a 2-register read for each measurement. The low byte should be read first. This causes the high byte to be frozen until both high and low byte registers have been read, preventing erroneous TACH readings. The fan tachometer reading registers report back the number of 11.11 ms period clocks (90 kHz oscillator) gated to the fan speed counter from the rising edge of the first fan TACH pulse to the rising edge of the third fan TACH pulse (assuming two pulses per revolution are being counted). Because the device is essentially measuring the fan TACH period, the higher the count value, the slower the fan is Calculating Fan Speed Assuming a fan with two pulses per revolution, and with the ADT7476 programmed to measure two pulses per revolution, fan speed is calculated by www.onsemi.com 30 ADT7476 Fan Startup Timeout Fan Speed (RPM) = (90,000 × 60)/Fan TACH Reading To prevent the generation of false interrupts as a fan spins up (because it is below running speed), the ADT7476 includes a fan startup timeout function. During this time, the ADT7476 looks for two TACH pulses. If two TACH pulses are not detected, an interrupt is generated. Fan startup timeout can be disabled by setting Bit 5 (FSPDIS) of Configuration Register 1 (0x40). where Fan TACH Reading is the 16-bit fan tachometer reading. Example: TACH1 High Byte (0x29) = 0x17 TACH1 Low Byte (0x28) = 0xFF What is Fan 1 speed in RPM? Fan 1 TACH Reading = 0x17FF = 6143 (decimal) RPM = (f × 60)/Fan 1 TACH Reading RPM = (90,000 × 60)/6143 Fan Speed = 879 RPM Table 39. PWM1 TO PWM3 CONFIGURATION (REG. 0X5C TO 0X5E) Bit Mnemonic [2:0] SPIN TACH Pulses per Revolution Different fan models can output either one, two, three, or four TACH pulses per revolution. Once the number of fan TACH pulses has been determined, it can be programmed into the TACH Pulses per Revolution Register (0x7B) for each fan. Alternatively, this register can be used to determine the number of pulses per revolution output by a given fan. By plotting fan speed measurements at 100% speed with different pulses per revolution settings, the smoothest graph with the lowest ripple determines the correct pulses per revolution value. Disabling Fan Startup Timeout Although fan startup makes fan spin-ups much quieter than fixed-time spin-ups, the option exists to use fixed spin-up times. Setting Bit 5 (FSPDIS) to 1 in Configuration Register 1 (0x40) disables the spin-up for two TACH pulses. Instead, the fan spins up for the fixed time as selected in Register 0x5C to Register 0x5E.

It spins the fan at 100% PWM duty cycle until two TACH pulses are detected on the TACH input. Once two TACH pulses have been detected, the PWM duty cycle goes to the expected running value, for example, 33%. Fans have different spin-up characteristics and take different times to overcome inertia. The advantage of the ADT7476 is that it runs the fans just fast enough to overcome inertia and is quieter on spin-up than fans that are programmed to spin up for a given time. www.onsemi.com 31 ADT7476 Value = 128 (decimal) or 0x80 (hex) Table 41.

Programming TRANGE TRANGE defines the distance between TMIN and 100% PWM. For the ADT7467, ADT7468 and ADT7473, TRANGE is effectively a slope. For the ADT7475 andADT7476, TRANGE is no longer a slope, but defines the temperature region where the PWM output linearly ramps from PWMMIN to 100% PWM. Fan Speed Control The ADT7476 controls fan speed using automatic and manual modes: • In automatic fan speed control mode, fan speed is automatically varied with temperature and without CPU intervention once initial parameters are set up. The advantage is that if the system hangs, the user is guaranteed that the system is protected from overheating. • In manual fan speed control mode, the ADT7476 allows the duty cycle of any PWM output to be adjusted manually. This can be useful if the user wants to change fan speed in software or adjust PWM duty cycle output for test purposes.

PWM CONFIGURATION (REG. 0X5C TO 0X5E) BITS Bit Mnemonic [7:5] BHVR Programming the Automatic Fan Speed Control Loop Description To understand the automatic fan speed control loop more efficiently, it is recommended to use the ADT7476 evaluation board and software while reading this section. This section provides the system designer with an understanding of the automatic fan control loop and provides step-by-step guidance on effectively evaluating and selecting critical system parameters. To optimize the system characteristics, the designer needs to give some thought to system configuration, including the number of fans, where they are located, and what temperatures are being measured in the particular system. The mechanical or thermal engineer who is tasked with the system thermal characterization should also be involved at the beginning of the system development process. 111 = Manual Mode Once under manual control, each PWM output can be manually updated by writing to Register 0x30 to Register 0x32 (PWM current duty cycle registers). Programming the PWM Current Duty Cycle Registers The PWM current duty cycle registers are 8-bit registers that allow the PWM duty cycle for each output to be set anywhere from 0% to 100% in steps of 0.39%. The value to be programmed into the PWMMIN register is given by: Value (decimal) = PWMMIN/0.39 Example 1: For a PWM duty cycle of 50%, Value (decimal) = 50/0.39 = 128 (decimal) www.onsemi.com 32 ADT7476 Manual Fan Control Overview temperature. Reducing fan speed can also decrease system current consumption. The automatic fan speed control mode is very flexible due to the number of programmable parameters, including TMIN and TRANGE. The TMIN and TRANGE values for a temperature channel and, therefore, for a given fan, are critical, because they define the thermal characteristics of the system. The thermal validation of the system is one of the most important steps in the design process, so these values should be selected carefully. Figure 47 gives a top level overview of the automatic fan control circuitry on the ADT7476. From a systems level perspective, up to three system temperatures can be monitored and used to control three PWM outputs. The three PWM outputs can be used to control up to four fans. The ADT7476 allows the speed of four fans to be monitored. Each temperature channel has a thermal calibration block, allowing the designer to individually configure the thermal characteristics of each temperature channel. For example, designers can decide to run the CPU fan when CPU temperature increases above 60°C and a chassis fan when the local temperature increases above 45°C. At this stage, the designer has not assigned these thermal calibration settings to a particular fan drive (PWM) channel. The right side of Figure 47 shows fan-specific controls. The designer has individual control over parameters such as minimum PWM duty cycle, fan speed failure thresholds, and even ramp control of the PWM outputs. Automatic fan control, then, ultimately allows graceful fan speed changes that are less perceptible to the system user. In unusual circumstances, it can be necessary to manually control the speed of the fans. Because the ADT7476 has an SMBus interface, a system can read back all necessary voltage, fan speed, and temperature information, and use this information to control the speed of the fans by writing to the PWM current duty cycle register (0x30, 0x31, and 0x32) of the appropriate fan. Bits [7:5] of the PWMx configuration registers (0x5C, 0x5D, 0x5E) are used to set fans up for manual control. THERM Operation in Manual Mode In manual mode, if the temperature increases above the programmed THERM temperature limit, the fans automatically speed up to maximum PWM or 100% PWM, whichever way the appropriate fan channel is configured. Automatic Fan Control Overview The ADT7476 can automatically control the speed of fans based on the measured temperature. This is done independently of CPU intervention once initial parameters are set up. The ADT7476 has a local temperature sensor and two remote temperature channels that can be connected to a CPU on-chip thermal diode (available on Intel® Pentium® class and other CPUs). These three temperature channels can be used as the basis for automatic fan speed control to drive fans using pulse-width modulation (PWM).

How many fans are supported in system, three or four? This influences the choice of whether to use the TACH4 pin or to reconfigure it for the THERM function. 3. Is the CPU fan to be controlled using the ADT7476, or will the CPU fan run at full speed 100% of the time? If run at 100%, this frees up a PWM output, but the system is louder. 4. Where will the ADT7476 be physically located in the system? This influences the assignment of the temperature measurement channels to particular system thermal zones. For example, locating the ADT7476 close to the VRM controller circuitry allows the VRM temperature to be monitored using the local temperature channel. During system design, the motherboard sensing and control capabilities should be addressed early in the design stages. Decisions about how these capabilities are used should involve the system thermal/mechanical engineer. Ask the following questions: 1. What ADT7476 functionality is used? • PWM2 or SMBALERT? • TACH4 fan speed measurement or overtemperature THERM function? • 2.5 V voltage monitoring or overtemperature THERM function? • 12 V voltage monitoring or VID5 input?

Recommended Implementation 2 www.onsemi.com 37 ADT7476 Step 2 − Configuring the Mux Automatic Fan Control Mux Options After the system hardware configuration is determined, the fans can be assigned to particular temperature channels. Not only can fans be assigned to individual channels, but the behavior of the fans is also configurable. For example, fans can be run under automatic fan control, manually (under software control), or at the fastest speed calculated by multiple temperature channels. The mux is the bridge between temperature measurement channels and the three PWM outputs. Bits [7:5] (BHVR) of Register 0x5C, Register 0x5D, and Register 0x5E (PWM configuration registers) control the behavior of the fans connected to the PWM1, PWM2, and PWM3 outputs. The values selected for these bits determine how the mux connects a temperature measurement channel to a PWM output. [7:5] (BHVR), Register 0x5C, Register 0x5D, Register 0x5E. 000 = Remote 1 temperature controls PWMx 001 = Local temperature controls PWMx 010 = Remote 2 temperature controls PWMx 101 = Fastest speed calculated by local and Remote 2 temperature controls PWMx 110 = Fastest speed calculated by all three temperature channels controls PWMx The fastest speed calculated options pertain to controlling one PWM output based on multiple temperature channels. The thermal characteristics of the three temperature zones can be set to drive a single fan.

The CPU fan sink is controlled by PWM1, the front chassis fan is controlled by PWM2, and the rear chassis fan is controlled by PWM3. The mux is configured for the following fan control behavior: • PWM1 (CPU fan sink) is controlled by the fastest speed calculated by the local (VRM temperature) and Remote 2 (processor) temperature. In this case, the CPU fan sink is also being used to cool the VRM. • PWM2 (front chassis fan) is controlled by the Remote 1 temperature (ambient). • PWM3 (rear chassis fan) is controlled by the Remote 1 temperature (ambient).

Mux Configuration Example www.onsemi.com 39 ADT7476 Step 3 − TMIN Settings for Thermal Calibration Channels Table 44. TMIN REGISTERS TMIN is the temperature at which the fans start to turn on under automatic fan control. The speed at which the fan runs at TMIN is programmed later. The TMIN values chosen are temperature channel specific, for example, 25°C for ambient channel, 30°C for VRM temperature, and 40°C for processor temperature. TMIN is an 8-bit value, either twos complement or Offset 64, which can be programmed in 1°C increments. A TMIN register is associated with each temperature measurement channel: Remote 1, local, and Remote 2 temperature. Once the TMIN value is exceeded, the fan turns on and runs at the minimum PWM duty cycle. The fan turns off once the temperature has dropped below TMIN − THYST. To overcome fan inertia, the fan is spun up until two valid TACH rising edges are counted. See the Fan Startup Timeout section for more details. In some cases, primarily for psycho-acoustic reasons, it is desirable that the fan never switch off below TMIN. Setting Bits [7:5] of Enhance Acoustics Register 1 (0x62) keeps the fans running at the PWM minimum duty cycle if the temperature should fall below TMIN.

Understanding the TMIN Parameter www.onsemi.com 40 REAR CHASSIS ADT7476 Step 4 − PWMMIN for Each PWM (Fan) Output Example 1: PWMMIN is the minimum PWM duty cycle at which each fan in the system runs. It is also the start speed for each fan under automatic fan control once the temperature rises above TMIN. For maximum system acoustic benefit, PWMMIN should be as low as possible. Depending on the fan used, the PWMMIN setting is usually in the 20% to 33% duty cycle range. This value can be found through fan validation. For a minimum PWM duty cycle of 50%, Value (decimal) = 50/0.39 = 128 (decimal) Value = 128 (decimal) or 80 (hex) Example 2: For a minimum PWM duty cycle of 33%, Value (decimal) = 33/0.39 = 85 (decimal) Value = 85 (decimal) l or 54 (hex) Table 45.

Running a fan at 33% PWM duty cycle does not equate to running the fan at 33% speed. Driving a fan at 33% PWM duty cycle actually runs the fan at closer to 50% of its full speed. This is because fan speed in %RPM generally relates to the square root of PWM duty cycle. Given a PWM square wave as the drive signal, fan speed in RPM approximates to: TEMPERATURE Figure 54. PWMMIN Determines Minimum PWM Duty Cycle More than one PWM output can be controlled from a single temperature measurement channel. For example, Remote 1 temperature can control PWM1 and PWM2 outputs. If two different fans are used on PWM1 and PWM2, the fan characteristics can be set up differently. As a result, Fan 1 driven by PWM1 can have a different PWMMIN value than that of Fan 2 connected to PWM2. Figure 55 illustrates this as PWM1MIN (front fan), which is turned on at a minimum duty cycle of 20%, while PWM2MIN (rear fan) turns on at a minimum of 40% duty cycle. Note: Both fans turn on at exactly the same temperature, defined by TMIN. % fanspeed + ǸPWM Duty Cycle (eq. 5) PWMMAX is the maximum duty cycle that each fan in the system runs at under the automatic fan speed control loop. For maximum system acoustic benefit, PWMMAX should be as low as possible but should be capable of maintaining the processor temperature limit at an acceptable level. If the THERM temperature limit is exceeded, the fans are still boosted to 100% for fail-safe cooling. There is a PWMMAX limit for each fan channel. The default value of this register is 0xFF and has no effect unless it is programmed.

Adjusting PWMMIN Changes the Automatic Fan Control Slope As TRANGE is changed, the slope changes. As TRANGE gets smaller, the fans reach 100% speed with a smaller temperature change. Step 6 − TRANGE for Temperature Channels 100% PWM DUTY CYCLE TRANGE is the range of temperature over which automatic fan control occurs once the programmed TMIN temperature has been exceeded. TRANGE is the temperature range between PWMMIN and 100% PWM where the fan speed changes linearly. Otherwise stated, it is the line drawn between the TMIN/PWMMIN and the (TMIN + TRANGE)/PWM100% intersection points. 10% 0% TRANGE TMIN−HYST 30°C 40°C 45°C 54°C TMIN Figure 59.

As can be seen from the graph, the effect on fan speed is nonlinear. The TRANGE value can be selected for each temperature channel: Remote 1, local, and Remote 2 temperature.

Actual Changes in PWM Output (Advanced Acoustics Settings) While the automatic fan control algorithm describes the general response of the PWM output, it is also necessary to note that the enhance acoustics registers (0x62 and 0x63) can be used to set/clamp the maximum rate of change of PWM output for a given temperature zone. This means that if TRANGE is programmed with an AFC slope that is quite steep, a relatively small change in temperature could cause a large change in PWM output and possibly an audible change in fan speed, which can be noticeable/ bothersome to end users. Decreasing the speed the PWM output changes by programming the smoothing on the appropriate temperature channels (Register 0x62 and Register 0x63) changes how fast the fan speed increases/decreases in the event of a temperature spike.

TRANGE vs. Actual Fan Speed (Not PWM Drive) Profile The graphs in Figure 61 assume that the fan starts from 0% PWM duty cycle. Clearly, the minimum PWM duty cycle, PWMMIN, needs to be factored in to see how the loop actually performs in the system. Figure 62 shows how TRANGE is affected when the PWMMIN value is set to 20%. It can be seen that the fan actually runs at about 45% fan speed when the temperature exceeds TMIN. www.onsemi.com 43 ADT7476 25C 100 3.335C 90 45C 80 PWM DUTY CYCLE (%) PWM DUTY CYCLE (%) 80 55C 70 6.675C 85C 60 105C 50 13.35C 165C 40 205C 30 26.65C 325C 20 405C 10 0 100 2.55C 90 20 40 60 80 100 120 70 CPU TEMPERATURE 60 50 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE 40 30 20 10 53.35C 0 VRM TEMP. 805C 0 0 10 TEMPERATURE ABOVE TMIN 25C 90 45C 80 55C 70 6.675C 85C 60 105C 50 13.35C 165C 40 205C 30 26.65C 325C 20 405C 10 40 60 80 100 50 60 70 80 90 100 120 90 100 VRM TEMP. 80 70 CPU TEMPERATURE 60 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE 50 40 30 20 10 53.35C 20 40 90 3.335C FAN SPEED (% MAX RPM) FAN SPEED (% OF MAX) 100 2.55C 0 30 TEMPERATURE ABOVE TMIN 100 0 20 805C 0 0 TEMPERATURE ABOVE TMIN 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 TEMPERATURE ABOVE TMIN Figure 62. TRANGE and % Fan Speed Slopes with PWMMIN = 20% Figure 63. TRANGE and % Fan Speed Slopes for VRM, Ambient, and CPU Temperature Channels Example: Determining TRANGE for Each Temperature Channel Step 7 − TTHERM for Temperature Channels TTHERM is the absolute maximum temperature allowed on a temperature channel. Above this temperature, a component such as the CPU or VRM can operate beyond its safe operating limit. When the temperature measured exceeds TTHERM, all fans are driven at 100% PWM duty cycle (full speed) to provide critical system cooling. The fans remain running at 100% until the temperature drops below TTHERM minus hysteresis, where hysteresis is the number programmed into the hysteresis registers (0x6D and 0x6E). The default hysteresis value is 4°C. The TTHERM limit should be considered the maximum worst-case operating temperature of the system. Because exceeding any TTHERM limit runs all fans at 100%, it has very negative acoustic effects. Ultimately, this limit should be set up as a fail-safe, and users should ensure that it is not exceeded under normal system operating conditions. Note: TTHERM limits are nonmaskable and affect the fan speed no matter how automatic fan control settings are configured. This allows some flexibility, because a TRANGE value can be selected based on its slope, while a hard limit (such as 70°C), can be programmed as TMAX (the The following example shows how the different TMIN and TRANGE settings can be applied to three different thermal zones. In this example, the following TRANGE values apply: TRANGE = 80°C for ambient temperature TRANGE = 53.33°C for CPU temperature TRANGE = 40°C for VRM temperature This example uses the mux configuration described in Step 2 − Configuring the Mux with the ADT7476 connected as shown in Figure 52. Both CPU temperature and VRM temperature drive the CPU fan connected to PWM1. Ambient temperature drives the front chassis fan and rear chassis fan connected to PWM2 and PWM3. The front chassis fan is configured to run at PWMMIN = 20%. The rear chassis fan is configured to run at PWMMIN = 30%. The CPU fan is configured to run at PWMMIN = 10%. Note: The control range for 4-wire fans is much wider than that of 3-wire fans. In many cases, 4-wire fans can start with a PWM drive of as little as 20% or less. In extreme cases, some 3-wire fans cannot run unless a PWM drive of 60% or more is applied. www.onsemi.com 44 ADT7476 Hysteresis Registers temperature at which the fan reaches full speed) by setting TTHERM to that limit (for example, 70°C).

Because each hysteresis setting is four bits, hysteresis values are programmable from 1°C to 15°C. It is not recommended to program hysteresis values to 0°C, because this disables hysteresis. In effect, this causes the fans to cycle (during a THERM event) between normal speed and 100% speed, or, while operating close to TMIN, between normal speed and off, creating unsettling acoustic noise. THERM Hysteresis THERM hysteresis on a particular channel is configured via the hysteresis settings (Register 0x6D and Register 0x6E). For example, setting hysteresis on the Remote 1 channel also sets the hysteresis on Remote 1 THERM.

How TTHERM Relates to Automatic Fan Control www.onsemi.com 45 REAR CHASSIS ADT7476 Step 8 − THYST for Temperature Channels TTHERM hysteresis value, described in Step 6 − TRANGE for Temperature Channels. Therefore, programming Register 0x6D and Register 0x6E sets the hysteresis for both fan on/off and the THERM function. In some applications, it is required that fans not turn off below TMIN but remain running at PWMMIN. Bits [7:5] of Enhance Acoustics Register 1 (0x62) allow the fans to be turned off or to be kept spinning below TMIN. If the fans are always on, the THYST value has no effect on the fan when the temperature drops below TMIN. THYST is the amount of extra cooling a fan provides after the temperature measured has dropped back below TMIN before the fan turns off. The premise for temperature hysteresis (THYST) is that without it, the fan would merely chatter, or cycle on and off regularly, whenever the temperature hovers around the TMIN setting. The THYST value chosen determines the amount of time needed for the system to cool down or heat up as the fan is turning on and off. Values of hysteresis are programmable in the range 1°C to 15°C. Larger values of THYST prevent the fans from chattering on and off. The THYST default value is set at 4°C. The THYST setting applies not only to the temperature hysteresis for fan on/off, but the same setting is used for the THERM Hysteresis Any hysteresis programmed via Register 0x6D and Register 0x6E also applies hysteresis on the appropriate THERM channel.

Fan Presence Detect This feature is used to determine if a 4-wire fan is directly connected to a PWM output. This feature does not work for 3-wire fans. To detect whether a 4-wire fan is connected directly to a PWM output, the following must be performed in this order: 1. Drive the appropriate PWM outputs to 100% duty cycle. 2. Set Bit 0 of Configuration Register 2 (0x73). 3. Wait 5 ms. 4. Program fans to run at a different speed if necessary. 5. Read the state of Bits [3:1] of Configuration Register 2 (0x73). The state of these bits reflects whether a 4-wire fan is directly connected to the PWM output.

Enhance Acoustics Register 2 (0x63) [2:0] ACOU3 selects the ramp rate for PWM outputs associated with the local temperature channel. 000 = 37.5 sec 001 = 18.8 sec 010 = 12.5 sec 011 = 7.5 sec 100 = 4.7 sec 101 = 3.1 sec 110 = 1.6 sec 111 = 0.8 sec How Fan Presence Detect Works 4-wire fans typically have an internal pull up to 4.75 V ±10%, which typically sources 5 mA. While the detection cycle is on, an internal current sink is turned on, which sinks current from the fan’s internal pullup. By driving some of the current from the fan’s internal pullup (~100 mA) the logic buffer switches to a defined logic state. If this state is high, a fan is present; if the state is low, no fan is present. Note: The PWM input voltage should be clamped to 3.3 V. This ensures the PWM output is not pulled to a voltage higher than the maximum allowable voltage on that pin (5.5 V). www.onsemi.com 47 ADT7476 Fan Sync Figure 66 shows the signals that are exercised in the XNOR tree test mode. When two ADT7476s are used in a system, it is possible to synchronize them so that one PWM channel from each device can be effectively OR’ed together to create a PWM output that reflects the maximum speed of the two OR’ed PWMs. This OR’ed PWM can in turn be used to drive a chassis fan. VID0 VID1 VID2 VID3 Standby Mode The ADT7476 has been specifically designed to respond to the STBY supply. In computers that support S3 and S5 states, the core voltage of the processor is lowered in these states. When monitoring THERM, the THERM timer should be disabled during these states. When the VCCP voltage drops below the VCCP low limit, the following occurs: 1. Status Bit 1 (VCCP) in Interrupt Status Register 1 is set. 2. SMBALERT is generated, if enabled. 3. THERM monitoring is disabled. The THERM timer should hold its value prior to the S3 or S5 state. VID4 TACH1 TACH2 TACH3 TACH4 PWM2 PWM3 Once the core voltage, VCCP, goes above the VCCP low limit, everything is re-enabled and the system resumes normal operation. PWM1/XTO Figure 66. XNOR Tree Test XNOR Tree Test Mode Power-On Default The ADT7476 includes an XNOR 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 XNOR tree, it is possible to detect opens, or shorts, on the system board. The XNOR tree test is invoked by setting Bit 0 (XEN) of the XNOR Tree Test Enable Register (0x6F). When the ADT7476 is powered up, monitoring is off by default and the PWM outputs go to 100%. All necessary registers then need to be configured via the SMBus for the appropriate functions to operate. www.onsemi.com 48 ADT7476 Register Tables Table 49.

[2] SlowFan Remote 2 R/W When this bit is set, Fan 3 smoothing times are multiplied x4 for Remote 2 temperature channel (as defined in Register 0x63). [3] THERM in Manual R/W When this bit is set, THERM is enabled in manual mode. (Note 1) [4] SlaveEn R/W Setting this bit configures the ADT7476 as a slave for use in fan sync mode. [5] MasterEn R/W Setting this bit configures the ADT7476 as a master for use in fan sync mode. [6] VCCP Low R/W VCCPLow = 1. When the power is supplied from 3.3 V STANDBY and the core voltage (VCCP) drops below its VCCP low limit value (Register 0x46), the following occurs: Status Bit 1 in Interrupt Status Register 1 is set. SMBALERT is generated, if enabled. PROCHOT monitoring is disabled. Everything is re-enabled once VCCP increases above the VCCP low limit.When VCCP increases above the low limit: PROCHOT monitoring is enabled. Fans return to their programmed state after a spin-up cycle. [7] ExtraSlow R/W When this bit is set, all fan smoothing times are increased by a further 39.2% 1. A THERM event always overrides any fan setting (even when fans are disabled). 2. This register becomes read-only when the Configuration Register 1 Lock bit is set to 1. Any subsequent attempts to write to this register fail. Table 51.

VOLTAGE READING REGISTERS (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X00) (Note 1) Register Address R/W 0x20 Read-only Reflects the voltage measurement at the 2.5 V input on Pin 22 (8 MSBs of reading). 0x21 Read-only Reflects the voltage measurement (Note 2) at the VCCP input on Pin 23 (8 MSBs of reading). 0x22 Read-only Reflects the voltage measurement (Note 3) at the VCC input on Pin 4 (8 MSBs of reading). 0x23 Read-only Reflects the voltage measurement at the 5.0 V input on Pin 20 (8 MSBs of reading). 0x24 Read-only Reflects the voltage measurement at the 12 V input on Pin 21 (8 MSBs of reading). Description 1. If the extended resolution bits of these readings are also being read, the extended resolution registers (Register 0x76, Register 0x77) must be read first. Once the extended resolution registers have been read, the associated MSB reading registers are frozen until read. Both the extended resolution registers and the MSB registers are frozen. 2. If VCCPLow (Bit 7 of 0x40) is set, VCCP can control the sleep state of the ADT7476. 3. VCC (Pin 4) is the supply voltage for the ADT7476. Table 53. TEMPERATURE READING REGISTERS (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X80) (Note 1. 2 and 3) Register Address R/W Description 0x25 Read-only Remote 1 temperature reading (Note 3 and 4) (8 MSBs of reading). 0x26 Read-only Local temperature reading (8 MSBs of reading). 0x27 Read-only Remote 2 temperature reading (Note 3 and 4) (8 MSBs of reading). 1. If the extended resolution bits of these readings are also being read, the extended resolution registers (Register 0x76, Register 0x77) must be read first. Once the extended resolution registers have been read, all associated MSB reading registers are frozen until read. Both the extended resolution registers and the MSB registers are frozen. 2. These temperature readings can be in twos complement or Offset 64 format; this interpretation is determined by Bit 0 of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C). 3. In twos complement mode, a temperature reading of −128°C (0x80) indicates a diode fault (open or short) on that channel. 4. In Offset 64 mode, a temperature reading of −64°C (0x00) indicates a diode fault (open or short) on that channel. www.onsemi.com 52 ADT7476 Table 54. FAN TACHOMETER READING REGISTERS (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X00) (Note 1) Register Address R/W 0x28 Read-only TACH1 Low Byte Description 0x29 Read-only TACH1 High Byte 0x2A Read-only TACH2 Low Byte 0x2B Read-only TACH2 High Byte 0x2C Read-only TACH3 Low Byte 0x2D Read-only TACH3 High Byte 0x2E Read-only TACH4 Low Byte 0x2F Read-only TACH4 High Byte 1. These registers count the number of 11.11 ms periods (based on an internal 90 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 using the TACH Pulses per Revolution register (Register 0x7B). This allows the fan speed to be accurately measured. Because a valid fan tachometer reading requires that two bytes 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 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 one of the following: stalled or blocked (object jamming the fan), failed (internal circuitry destroyed), or not populated. (The ADT7476 expects to see a fan connected to each TACH. If a fan is not connected to that TACH, its TACH minimum high and low bytes should be set to 0xFFFF.) An alternate function, for example, is TACH4 reconfigured as the THERM pin. Table 55.

These registers reflect the PWM duty cycle driving each fan at any given time. When in automatic fan speed control mode, the ADT7476 reports the PWM duty cycles back through these registers. The PWM duty cycle values vary according to temperature in automatic fan speed control mode. During fan startup, these registers report back 0x00. In manual mode, the PWM duty cycle outputs can be set to any duty cycle value by writing to these registers. Table 56. PWM MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0XFF) (Note 1 and 2) Register Address R/W Description 0x38 R/W Maximum Duty Cycle for PWM1 Output, Default = 100% (0xFF) 0x39 R/W Maximum Duty Cycle for PWM2 Output, Default = 100% (0xFF) 0x3A R/W Maximum Duty Cycle for PWM3 Output, Default = 100% (0xFF) 1. These registers set the maximum PWM duty cycle of the PWM output. 2. This register becomes read-only when the Configuration Register 1 Lock bit is set to 1. Any subsequent attempts to write to this register fail. www.onsemi.com 53 ADT7476 Table 57. REGISTER 0X40 − CONFIGURATION REGISTER 1 (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X04) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W Description [0] STRT (Notes 1, 2) R/W Logic 1 enables monitoring and PWM control outputs based on the limit settings programmed. Logic 0 disables monitoring and PWM control is based on the default powerup limit settings. Note that the limit values programmed are preserved even if a Logic 0 is written to this bit and the default settings are enabled. This bit does not become locked once Bit 1 (LOCK bit) has been set. [1] LOCK Write Once 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 ADT7476 is powered down and powered up again. This prevents rogue programs such as viruses from modifying critical system limit settings. (Lockable.) [2] RDY Read-only This bit is set to 1 by the ADT7476 to indicate that the device is fully powered-up and ready to begin system monitoring. [3] FSPD R/W When set to 1, this bit runs all fans at max speed as programmed in the max PWM current duty cycle registers (0x30 to 0x32). Power-on default = 0. This bit is not locked at any time. [4] Vx1 R/W BIOS should set this bit to a 1 when the ADT7476 is configured to measure current from an ADOPT® VRM controller and to measure the CPU’s core voltage. This bit allows monitoring software to display CPU watts usage. (Lockable.) [5] FSPDIS R/W Logic 1 disables fan spin-up for two TACH pulses. Instead, the PWM outputs go high for the entire fan spin-up timeout selected. [6] TODIS R/W When this bit is set to 1, the SMBus timeout feature is disabled. This allows the ADT7476 to be used with SMBus controllers that cannot handle SMBus timeouts. This bit is lockable. [7] Reserved N/A Reserved. Do not write to this bit. 1. Bit 0 (STRT) of Configuration Register 1 (0x40) remains writable after lock bit is set. 2. When monitoring (STRT) is disabled, PWM outputs always go to 100% for thermal protection. Table 58. REGISTER 0X41 − INTERRUPT STATUS REGISTER 1 (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X00) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W Description [0] 2.5 V/ THERM Read-only 2.5 V = 1 indicates that the 2.5 V high or low limit has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. If Pin 22 is configured as THERM, this bit is asserted when the timer limit has been exceeded. [1] VCCP Read-only VCCP = 1 indicates that the VCCP high or low limit has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [2] VCC Read-only VCC = 1 indicates that the VCC high or low limit has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [3] 5.0 V Read-only A 1 indicates that the 5.0 V high or low limit has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [4] R1T Read-only R1T = 1 indicates that the Remote 1 low or high temperature has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [5] LT Read-only LT = 1 indicates that the local low or high temperature has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [6] R2T Read-only R2T = 1 indicates that the Remote 2 low or high temperature has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. [7] OOL Read-only OOL = 1 indicates that an out-of-limit event has been latched in Interrupt Status Register 2. This bit is a logical OR of all status bits in Interrupt Status Register 2. Software can test this bit in isolation to determine whether any of the voltage, temperature, or fan speed readings represented by Interrupt Status Register 2 are out-of-limit, which eliminates the need to read Interrupt Status Register 2 during every interrupt or polling cycle. www.onsemi.com 54 ADT7476 Table 59. REGISTER 0X42 − INTERRUPT STATUS REGISTER 2 (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X00) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W Description [0] 12 V/VC Read-only A 1 indicates that the 12 V high or low limit has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register only if the error condition has subsided. If Pin 21 is configured as VID5, this bit is the VID change bit. This bit is set when the levels on VID0 to VID5 are different than they were 11 ms previously. This pin can be used to generate an SMBALERT whenever the VID code changes. [1] OVT Read-only OVT = 1 indicates that one of the THERM overtemperature limits has been exceeded. This bit is cleared on a read of the status register when the temperature drops below THERM − THYST. [2] FAN1 Read-only FAN1 = 1 indicates that Fan 1 has dropped below minimum speed or has stalled. This bit is not set when the PWM1 output is off. [3] FAN2 Read-only FAN2 = 1 indicates that Fan 2 has dropped below minimum speed or has stalled. This bit is not set when the PWM2 output is off. [4] FAN3 Read-only FAN3 = 1 indicates that Fan 3 has dropped below minimum speed or has stalled. This bit is not set when the PWM3 output is off. [5] F4P Read-only When Pin 14 is programmed as a TACH4 input, F4P = 1 indicates that Fan 4 has dropped below minimum speed or has stalled. This bit is not set when the PWM3 output is off. R/W When Pin 14 is programmed as the GPIO6 output, writing to this bit determines the logic output of GPIO6. When GPIO6 is programmed as an input, this bit reflects the value read by GPIO6. Read-only If Pin 14 is configured as the THERM timer input for THERM monitoring, then this bit is set when the THERM assertion time exceeds the limit programmed in the THERM timer limit register (0x7A). [6] D1 Read-only D1 = 1 indicates either an open or short circuit on the Thermal Diode 1 inputs. [7] D2 Read-only D2 = 1 indicates either an open or short circuit on the Thermal Diode 2 inputs. Table 60. REGISTER 0X43 − VID/GPIO REGISTER (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X1F) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W Description [4:0] VID[4:0]/ GPIO[4:0] R/W The VID[4:0] inputs from the CPU indicate the expected processor core voltage. On powerup, these bits reflect the state of the VID pins, even if monitoring is not enabled. When Bit 4 of Configuration Register 5 (0x7C) = 1, these bits become general-purpose outputs. The state of these bits then reflects the state of the appropriate GPIO pin. [5] VID5 R/W Reads VID5 from the CPU when Bit 7 = 1. If Bit 7 = 0, the VID5 bit always reads back 0 (power-on default). [6] THLD R/W Selects the input switching threshold for the VID inputs. THLD = 0 selects a threshold of 1 V (VOL < 0.8 V, VIH > 1.7 V). THLD = 1 lowers the switching threshold to 0.6 V (VOL < 0.4 V, VIH > 0.8 V). [7] VIDSEL R/W VIDSEL = 0 configures Pin 21 as the 12 V measurement input (default). Table 61.

This is a fail-safe mechanism incorporated to cool the system in the event of a critical overtemperature. It also ensures some level of cooling in the event that software or hardware locks up. If set to 0x80, this feature is disabled. The PWM output remains at 100% until the temperature drops below THERM limit − hysteresis.

Remote 2 temperature hysteresis. Power-On Default 0x44 0x40 Local temperature hysteresis. 0°C to 15°C of hysteresis can be applied to the local temperature AFC control loops. 1. Each 4-bit value controls the amount of temperature hysteresis applied to a particular temperature channel. Once the temperature for that channel falls below its TMIN value, the fan remains running at PWMMIN duty cycle until the temperature = TMIN – hysteresis. Up to 15°C of hysteresis can be assigned to any temperature channel. The hysteresis value chosen also applies to that temperature channel if its THERM limit is exceeded. The PWM output being controlled goes to 100% if the THERM limit is exceeded and remains at 100% until the temperature drops below THERM – hysteresis. For acoustic reasons, it is recommended that the hysteresis value not be programmed less than 4°C. Setting the hysteresis value lower than 4°C causes the fan to switch on and off regularly when the temperature is close to TMIN. 2.

REGISTER 0X7C − CONFIGURATION REGISTER 5 (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X01) (Note 1) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W [0] 2sC R/W 2sC = 1 sets the temperature range to the twos complement temperature range. 2sC = 0 changes the temperature range to the Offset 64 temperature range. When this bit is changed, the ADT7476 interprets all relevant temperature register values as defined by this bit. Description [1] Temp Offset R/W TempOffset = 0 sets offset range to −63°C to +64°C with 0.5°C resolution. TempOffset = 1 sets offset range to −63°C to +127°C with 1°C resolution. These settings apply to Remote 1, Local, and Remote2 temperature offset registers (0x70, 0x71, and 0x72). [2] GPIO6D R/W GPIO6 direction. When GPIO6 function is enabled, this determines whether GPIO6 is an input (0) or an output (1). [3] GPIO6P R/W GPIO6 polarity. When the GPIO6 function is enabled and is programmed as an output, this bit determines whether the GPIO6 is active low (0) or high (1). [4] VID/GPIO R/W VID/GPIO = 0 enables VID functionality on Pin 5, Pin 6, Pin 7, Pin 8, and Pin 19. VID/GPIO = 1 enables GPIO functionality on Pin 5, Pin 6, Pin 7, Pin 8, and Pin 19. [5] R1 THERM R/W R1 THERM = 1 enables THERM temperature limit functionality for Remote 1 temperature channel; that is, THERM is bidirectional. R1 THERM = 0 indicates THERM is a timer input only. THERM can also be disabled on any channel by: Writing −64°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in Offset 64 mode. Writing −128°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in twos complement mode. [6] Local THERM R/W Local THERM = 1 enables THERM temperature limit functionality for local temperature channel; that is, THERM is bidirectional. Local THERM = 0 indicates THERM is a timer input only. THERM can also be disabled on any channel by: Writing −64°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in Offset 64 mode. Writing −128°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in twos complement mode. [7] R2 THERM R/W R2 THERM = 1 enables THERM temperature limit functionality for Remote 2 temperature channel; that is, THERM is bidirectional. R2 THERM = 0 indicates THERM is a timer input only.THERM can also be disabled on any channel by: Writing −64°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in Offset 64 mode. Writing −128°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in twos complement mode. 1. This register becomes read-only when the Configuration Register 1 Lock bit is set to 1. Any further attempts to write to this register have no effect. www.onsemi.com 66 ADT7476 Table 87. REGISTER 0X7D − CONFIGURATION REGISTER 4 (POWER-ON DEFAULT = 0X00) (Note 1) Bit No. Mnemonic R/W [1:0] PIN14FUNC R/W These bits set the functionality of Pin 14. 00 = TACH4 (Default) 01 = THERM 10 = SMBALERT 11 = GPIO Description [2] THERM Disable R/W THERM Disable = 0 enables THERM overtemperature output assuming THERM is correctly configured (Registers 0x78, 0x7C, and 0x7D). THERM Disable = 1 disables THERM overtemperature output on all channels. THERM can also be disabled on any channel by: Writing −64°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in Offset 64 mode. Writing −128°C to the appropriate THERM temperature limit in twos complement mode. [3] MaxSpeed THERM R/W MaxSpeed on THERM = 0 indicates that fans go to full speed when THERM temperature limit is exceeded. MaxSpeed on THERM = 1 indicates that fans go to max speed (0x38, 0x39, 0x3A) when THERM temperature limit is exceeded. [4] BpAtt 2.5 V R/W Bypass 2.5 V attenuator. When set, the measurement scale for this channel changes from 0 V (0x00) to 2.25 V (0xFF). [5] BpAtt VCCP R/W Bypass VCCP attenuator. When set, the measurement scale for this channel changes from 0 V (0x00) to 2.25 V (0xFF). [6] BpAtt 5.0 V R/W Bypass 5.0 V attenuator. When set, the measurement scale for this channel changes from 0 V (0x00) to 2.25 V (0xFF). [7] BpAtt 12 V R/W Bypass 12 V attenuator. When set, the measurement scale for this channel changes from 0 V (0x00) to 2.25 V (0xFF). 1. This register becomes read-only when the Configuration Register 1 Lock bit is set to 1. Any further attempts to write to this register have no effect. Table 88.
