TC646B/TC648B/TC649B PWM Fan Speed Controllers With Auto-Shutdown, Fan Restart and FanSense™ Technology for Fault Detection Features Description • Temperature-Proportional Fan Speed for Acoustic Noise Reduction and Longer Fan Life • Efficient PWM Fan Drive • 3.0V to 5.5V Supply Range: - Fan Voltage Independent of TC646B/ TC648B/TC649B Supply Voltage - Supports any Fan Voltage • FanSense™ Fault Detection Circuit Protects Against Fan Failure and Aids System Testing (TC646B/TC649B) • Automatic Shutdown Mode for “Green” Systems • Supports Low Cost NTC/PTC Thermistors • Over-Temperature Indication (TC646B/TC648B) • Fan Auto-Restart • Space-Saving 8-Pin MSOP Package The TC646B/TC648B/TC649B devices are new versions of the existing TC646/TC648/TC649 fan speed controllers. These devices are switch-mode fan speed controllers that incorporate a new fan auto-restart function. Temperature-proportional speed control is accomplished using pulse width modulation. A thermistor (or other voltage output temperature sensor) connected to the VIN input supplies the required control voltage of 1.20V to 2.60V (typical) for 0% to 100% PWM duty cycle. The auto-shutdown threshold/temperature is set by a simple resistor divider on the VAS input. An integrated Start-Up Timer ensures reliable fan motor startup at turn-on, coming out of shutdown mode, autoshutdown mode or following a transient fault. A logic low applied to VIN (pin 1) causes fan shutdown.

The TC646B and TC649B also feature Microchip Technology's proprietary FanSense technology for increasing system reliability. In normal fan operation, a pulse train is present at SENSE (pin 5). A missingpulse detector monitors this pin during fan operation. A stalled, open or unconnected fan causes the TC646B/ TC649B device to turn the VOUT output on full (100% duty cycle). If the fan fault persists (a fan current pulse is not detected within a 32/f period), the FAULT output goes low. Even with the FAULT output low, the VOUT output is on full during the fan fault condition in order to attempt to restart the fan. FAULT (TC646B) or OTF (TC648B) is also asserted if the PWM reaches 100% duty cycle, indicating that maximum cooling capability has been reached and a possible overheating condition exists. The TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices are available in 8-pin plastic MSOP, SOIC and PDIP packages. The specified temperature range of these devices is -40 to +85ºC.

TABLE 3-1: PIN FUNCTION TABLE Pin Name 1 VIN Analog Input 2 CF Analog Output 3 VAS Analog Input 4 GND Ground 5 SENSE/NC Analog Input/No Connect. NC for TC648B. 6 FAULT/OTF Digital (Open-Drain) Output OTF for TC648B 7 VOUT Digital Output 8 VDD Power Supply Input 3.1 Function Analog Input (VIN) The thermistor network (or other temperature sensor) connects to VIN. A voltage range of 1.20V to 2.60V (typical) on this pin drives an active duty cycle of 0% to 100% on the VOUT pin. The TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices enter shutdown mode when 0 VIN VSHDN. During shutdown, the FAULT/OTF output is inactive and supply current falls to 30 µA (typical). 3.2 Analog Output (CF) CF is the positive terminal for the PWM ramp generator timing capacitor. The recommended value for the CF capacitor is 1.0 µF for 30 Hz PWM operation. 3.3 Analog Input (VAS) An external resistor divider connected to VAS sets the auto-shutdown threshold. Auto-shutdown occurs when VIN < VAS. The fan is automatically restarted when VIN > (VAS + VHAS). During auto-shutdown, the FAULT/OTF output is inactive and supply current falls to 30 µA (typical). 3.4 Analog Input (SENSE) Pulses are detected at SENSE as fan rotation chops the current through a sense resistor. The absence of pulses indicates a fan fault condition. 3.5 Digital (Open-Drain) Output (FAULT/OTF) FAULT/OTF goes low to indicate a fault condition. When FAULT goes low due to a fan fault (TC646B and TC649B devices), the output will remain low until the fan fault condition has been removed (16 pulses have been detected at the SENSE pin in a 32/f period). For the TC646B and TC648B devices, the FAULT/OTF output will also be asserted when the VIN voltage reaches the VOTF threshold of 2.62V (typical). This gives an over-temperature/100% fan speed indication. 3.6 Digital Output (VOUT) VOUT is an active-high complimentary output that drives the base of an external NPN transistor (via an appropriate base resistor) or the gate of an N-channel MOSFET. This output has asymmetrical drive. During a fan fault condition, the VOUT output is continuously on. 3.7 Power Supply Input (VDD) The VDD pin with respect to GND provides power to the device. This bias supply voltage may be independent of the fan power supply. 3.8 Ground (GND) Ground terminal. 3.9 No Connect (NC) No internal connection. DS21755C-page 10 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B 4.0 DEVICE OPERATION The TC646B/TC648B/TC649B devices are a family of temperature-proportional, PWM mode, fan speed controllers. Features of the family include minimum fan speed, fan auto-shutdown, fan auto-restart, remote shutdown, over-temperature indication and fan fault detection. The TC64XB family is slightly different from the original TC64X family, which includes the TC642, TC646, TC647, TC648 and TC649 devices. Changes have been made to adjust the operation of the device during a fan fault condition. The key change to the TC64XB family of devices (TC642B, TC647B, TC646B, TC648B, TC649B) is that the FAULT and VOUT outputs no longer “latch” to a state during a fan fault condition. The TC646B/TC648B/ TC649B family will continue to monitor the operation of the fan so that when the fan returns to normal operation, the fan speed controller will also return to normal operation (PWM mode). The operation and features of these devices are discussed in the following sections. 4.1 The PWM approach to fan speed control results in much less power dissipation in the drive element. This allows smaller devices to be used and will not require special heatsinking to remove the power being dissipated in the package. The other advantage of the PWM approach is that the voltage being applied to the fan is always near 12V. This eliminates any concern about not supplying a high enough voltage to run the internal fan components, which is very relevant in linear fan speed control. 4.2 PWM Fan Speed Control The TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices implement PWM fan speed control by varying the duty cycle of a fixed-frequency pulse train. The duty cycle of a waveform is the on time divided by the total period of the pulse. For example, if we take a 100 Hz waveform (10 ms) with an on time of 5.0 ms, the duty cycle of this waveform is 50% (5.0 ms / 10.0 ms). This example is shown in Figure 4-1. t Fan Speed Control Methods The speed of a DC brushless fan is proportional to the voltage across it. This relationship will vary from fan-tofan and should be characterized on an individual basis. The speed versus applied voltage relationship can then be used to set up the fan speed control algorithm. There are two main methods for fan speed control. The first is pulse width modulation (PWM) and the second is linear. Using either method, the total system power requirement to run the fan is equal. The difference between the two methods is where the power is consumed. The following example compares the two methods for a 12V, 120 mA fan running at 50% speed. With 6V applied across the fan, the fan draws an average current of 68 mA. Using a linear control method, there is 6V across the fan and 6V across the drive element. With 6V and 68 mA, the drive element is dissipating 410 mW of power. Using the PWM approach, the fan voltage is modulated at a 50% duty cycle, with most of the 12V being dropped across the fan. With 50% duty cycle, the fan draws a RMS current of 110 mA and an average current of 72 mA. Using a MOSFET with a 1 RDS(on) (a fairly typical value for this low current), the power dissipation in the drive element would be: 12 mW (Irms2 * RDS(on)). Using a standard 2N2222A NPN transistor (assuming a Vce-sat of 0.8V), the power dissipation would be 58 mW (Iavg* Vce-sat). 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. ton toff D = Duty Cycle D = ton / t FIGURE 4-1: Waveform. t = Period t = 1/f f = Frequency Duty Cycle of a PWM The TC646B/TC648B/TC649B devices generate a pulse train with a typical frequency of 30 Hz (CF = 1 µF). The duty cycle can be varied from 0% to 100%. The pulse train generated by the TC646B/ TC648B/TC649B device drives the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET or the base of an NPN transistor. (shown in Figure 4-2). See Section 5.5, “Output Drive Device Selection”, for more information on output drive device selection. DS21755C-page 11 TC646B/TC648B/TC649B FAN VDD D TC646B VOUT TC648B TC649B G QDRIVE S GND FIGURE 4-2: PWM Fan Drive. By modulating the voltage applied to the gate of the MOSFET (QDRIVE), the voltage that is applied to the fan is also modulated. When the VOUT pulse is high, the gate of the MOSFET is turned on, pulling the voltage at the drain of QDRIVE to zero volts. This places the full 12V across the fan for the ton period of the pulse. When the duty cycle of the drive pulse is 100% (full on, ton = t), the fan will run at full speed. As the duty cycle is decreased (pulse on time “ton” is lowered), the fan will slow down proportionally. With the TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices, the duty cycle is controlled by the VIN input and can also be terminated by the VAS input (auto-shutdown). This is described in more detail in Section 5.5, “Output Drive Device Selection”. 4.3 Fan Start-up Often overlooked in fan speed control is the actual start-up control period. When starting a fan from a nonoperating condition (fan speed is zero revolutions per minute (RPM)), the desired PWM duty cycle or average fan voltage cannot be applied immediately. Since the fan is at a rest position, the fan’s inertia must be overcome to get it started. The best way to accomplish this is to apply the full rated voltage to the fan for a minimum of one second. This will ensure that in all operating environments, the fan will start and operate properly. An example of the start-up timing is shown in Figure 1-1. A key feature of the TC646B/TC648B/TC649B devices is the start-up timer. When power is first applied to the device, or when the device is brought out of the shutdown/auto-shutdown modes of operation, the VOUT output will go to a high state for 32 PWM cycles (one second for CF = 1 µF). This will drive the fan to full speed for this time frame. During the start-up period for the TC646B and TC649B devices, the SENSE pin is being monitored for fan pulses. If pulses are detected during this period, the fan speed controller will then move to PWM operation. If pulses are not detected during the start-up period, the DS21755C-page 12 start-up timer is activated again. If pulses are not detected at the SENSE pin during this additional period, the FAULT output will go low to indicate that a fan fault condition has occurred. See Section 4.7, “FAULT/OTF Output”, for more details. 4.4 PWM Frequency & Duty Cycle Control (CF & VIN Pins) The frequency of the PWM pulse train is controlled by the CF pin. By attaching a capacitor to the CF pin, the frequency of the PWM pulse train can be set to the desired value. The typical PWM frequency for a 1.0 µF capacitor is 30 Hz. The frequency can be adjusted by raising or lowering the value of the capacitor. The CF pin functions as a ramp generator. The voltage at this pin will ramp from 1.20V to 2.60V (typically) as a sawtooth waveform. An example of this is shown in Figure 4-3. 2.8 CF = 1 µF 2.6 VCMAX 2.4 CF Voltage (V) 12V 2.2 2.0 1.8 1.6 1.4 1.2 VCMIN 1.0 0 20 40 60 80 100 Time (msec) FIGURE 4-3: CF Pin Voltage. The duty cycle of the PWM output is controlled by the voltage at the VIN input pin. The duty cycle of the PWM output is produced by comparing the voltage at the VIN pin to the voltage ramp at the CF pin. When the voltage at the VIN pin is 1.20V, the duty cycle will be 0%. When the voltage at the VIN pin is 2.60V, the PWM duty cycle will be 100% (these are both typical values). The VIN-to-PWM duty cycle relationship is shown in Figure 4-4. The lower value of 1.20V is referred to as “VCMIN” and the 2.60V threshold is referred to as “VCMAX”. A calculation for duty cycle is shown in the equation below. The voltage range between VCMIN and VCMAX is characterized as “VCSPAN“ and has a typical value of 1.4V, with minimum and maximum values of 1.3V and 1.5V, respectively.

TC646B/TC648B/TC649B For the TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices, the VIN pin is also used as the shutdown pin. The VSHDN and VREL threshold voltages are characterized in the “Electrical Characteristics Table” of Section 1.0. If the VIN pin voltage is pulled below the VSHDN threshold, the device will shut down (VOUT output goes to a low state, the FAULT/OTF pin is inactive). If the voltage on the VIN pin then rises above the release threshold (VREL), the device will go through a power-up sequence (assuming that the VIN voltage is also higher than the voltage at the VAS pin). The power-up sequence is shown later in the “Behavioral Algorithm Flowcharts” of Section 4.9. 100 90 Duty Cycle (%) 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 When the device is in shutdown/auto-shutdown mode, the VOUT output is actively held low. The output can be varied from 0% (full off) to 100% duty cycle (full on). As previously discussed, the duty cycle of the VOUT output is controlled via the VIN input voltage and can be terminated based on the VAS voltage. A base current-limiting resistor is required when using a transistor as the external drive device in order to limit the amount of drive current that is drawn from the VOUT output. The VOUT output can be directly connected to the gate of an external MOSFET. One concern when doing this, though, is that the fast turn-off time of the fan drive MOSFET can cause a problem because the fan motor looks like an inductor. When the MOSFET is turned off quickly, the current in the fan wants to continue to flow in the same direction. This causes the voltage at the drain of the MOSFET to rise. If there aren’t any clamp diodes internal to the fan, this voltage can rise above the drain-to-source voltage rating of the MOSFET. For this reason, an external clamp diode is suggested. This is shown in Figure 4-5. 0 1 1.2 1.4 1.6 1.8 2 2.2 2.4 2.6 2.8 VIN (V) FIGURE 4-4: Cycle (Typical). 4.5 VIN Voltage vs. PWM Duty Clamp Diode FAN Auto-Shutdown Mode (VAS) For the TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices, pin 3 is the VAS pin and is used for setting the auto-shutdown threshold voltage. Q1 VOUT The auto-shutdown function provides a way to set a threshold voltage (temperature) at which the fan will be shut off. This way, if the temperature in the system reaches a threshold at which the fan(s) no longer needs to operate, the fan can be shutdown automatically. The voltage range for the VAS pin is the same as the voltage range for the VIN pin (1.20V to 2.60V). The voltage at the VAS pin is set in this range so that when the voltage at the VIN pin decreases below the voltage at the VAS pin (signifying that the threshold temperature has been reached), the VOUT output is shut off (goes to a low state). In auto-shutdown, the FAULT/OTF output is inactive (high-impedance). Auto-shutdown mode is exited when the VIN voltage exceeds the VAS voltage by the auto-shutdown hysteresis voltage (VHAS). Upon exiting auto-shutdown mode, the start-up timer is triggered and the device returns to normal operation. 4.6 VOUT Output (PWM Output) The VOUT output is a digital output designed for driving the base of a transistor or the gate of a MOSFET. The VOUT output is designed to be able to quickly raise the base current or the gate voltage of the external drive device to its final value. 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. RSENSE GND Q1: N-Channel MOSFET FIGURE 4-5: 4.7 Clamp Diode for Fan. FAULT/OTF Output The FAULT/OTF output is an open-drain, active-low output. For the TC646B and TC649B devices, pin 6 is labeled as the FAULT output and indicates when a fan fault condition has occurred. For the TC646B device, the FAULT output also indicates when an over-temperature (OTF) condition has occurred. For the TC648B device, pin 6 is the OTF output that indicates an overtemperature (OTF) condition has occurred. DS21755C-page 13 TC646B/TC648B/TC649B For the TC646B and TC648B devices, an over-temperature condition is indicated when the VIN input reaches the VOTF threshold voltage (the VOTF threshold voltage is typically 20 mV higher than the VCMAX threshold and has 80 mV of hysteresis). This indicates that maximum cooling capacity has been reached (the fan is at full speed) and that an overheating situation can occur. When the voltage at the VIN input falls below the VOTF threshold voltage by the hysteresis value (VOTF-HYS), the FAULT/OTF output will return to the high state (a pull-up resistor is needed on the FAULT/OTF output). For the TC646B/TC649B devices, a fan fault condition is indicated when fan current pulses are no longer detected at the SENSE pin. Pulses at the SENSE pin indicate that the fan is spinning and conducting current. 4.8 Sensing Fan Operation (SENSE) The SENSE input is an analog input used to monitor the fan’s operation (the TC648B device does not incorporate the fan sensing feature). It does this by sensing fan current pulses that represent fan rotation. When a fan rotates, commutation of the fan current occurs as the fan poles pass the armatures of the motor. The commutation of the fan current makes the current waveshape appear as pulses. There are two typical current waveforms of brushless DC fan motors, illustrated in Figures 4-6 and 4-7. If pulses are not detected at the SENSE pin for 32 PWM cycles, the 3-cycle diagnostic timer is fired. This means that the VOUT output is high for 3 PWM cycles. If pulses are detected in this 3-cycle period, normal PWM operation is resumed and no fan fault is indicated. If no pulses are detected in the 3-cycle period, the start-up timer is activated and the VOUT output is driven high for 32 PWM cycles. If pulses are detected during this time-frame, normal PWM operation is resumed. If no pulses are detected during this timeperiod, a fan fault condition exists and the FAULT output is pulled low. During a fan fault condition, the FAULT output will remain low until the fault condition has been removed. During this time, the VOUT output is driven high continuously to attempt to restart the fan and the SENSE pin is monitored for fan pulses. If a minimum of 16 pulses are detected at the SENSE input over a 32 cycle timeperiod (one second for CF = 1.0 µF), the fan fault condition no longer exists. Therefore, The FAULT output is released and the VOUT output returns to normal PWM operation, as dictated by the VIN and VAS inputs. FIGURE 4-6: Fan Current With DC Offset And Positive Commutation Current. If the VIN voltage is pulled below the VSHDN level during a fan fault condition, the FAULT output will be released and the VOUT output will be shutdown (VOUT = 0V). If the VIN voltage then increases above the VREL threshold and is above the VAS voltage, the device will go through the normal start-up routine. If, during a fan fault condition, the voltage at the VIN pin drops below the VAS voltage level, the TC646B/ TC649B device will continue to hold the FAULT line low and drive the VOUT output to 100% duty cycle. If the fan fault condition is then removed, the FAULT output will be released and the TC646B/TC649B device will enter auto-shutdown mode until the VIN voltage is brought above the VAS voltage by the auto-shutdown hysteresis value (VHAS). The TC646B/TC649B device will then resume normal PWM mode operation. The sink current capability of the FAULT output is listed in the “Electrical Characteristics Table” of Section 1.0. DS21755C-page 14 FIGURE 4-7: Fan Current With Commutation Pulses To Zero. 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B The SENSE pin senses positive voltage pulses that have an amplitude of 70 mV (typical value). Each time a pulse is detected, the missing pulse detector timer (tMP) is reset. As previously stated, if the missing pulse detector timer reaches the time for 32 cycles, the loop for diagnosing a fan fault is engaged (diagnostic timer, then the start-up timer). Both of the fan current waveshapes shown in Figures 4-6 and 4-7 can be sensed with the sensing scheme shown in Figure 4-8. The initial pulse blanker is also implemented to stop false sensing of fan current pulses. When a fan is in a locked rotor condition, the fan current no longer commutates, it simply flows through one fan winding and is a DC current. When a fan is in a locked rotor condition and the TC646B/TC649B device is in PWM mode, it will see one current pulse each time the VOUT output is turned on. The initial pulse blanker allows the TC646B/TC649B device to ignore this pulse and recognize that the fan is in a fault condition. 4.9 FAN TC64XB RISO VOUT SENSE GND FIGURE 4-8: Current. Behavioral Algorithms The behavioral algorithms for the TC646B/TC649B and TC648B devices are shown in Figure 4-9 and Figure 4-10, respectively. The behavioral algorithms show the step-by-step decision-making process for the fan speed controller operation. The TC646B and TC649B devices are very similar with one exception: the TC649B device does not implement the over-temperature portion of the algorithm. CSENSE (0.1 µF typical) RSENSE Sensing Scheme For Fan The fan current flowing through RSENSE generates a voltage that is proportional to the current. The CSENSE capacitor removes any DC portion of the voltage across RSENSE and presents only the voltage pulse portion to the SENSE pin of the TC646B/TC649B devices. The RSENSE and CSENSE values need to be selected so that the voltage pulse provided to the SENSE pin is 70 mV (typical) in amplitude. Be sure to check the sense pulse amplitude over all operating conditions (duty cycles) as the current pulse amplitude will vary with duty cycle. See Section 5.0, “Applications Information”, for more details on selecting values for RSENSE and CSENSE. Key features of the SENSE pin circuitry are an initial blanking period after every VOUT pulse and an initial pulse blanker. The TC646B/TC649B sense circuitry has a blanking period that occurs at the turn-on of each VOUT pulse. During this blanking period, the sense circuitry ignores any pulse information that is seen at the SENSE pin input. This stops the TC646B/TC649B device from falsely sensing a current pulse that is due to the fan drive device turn-on. 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc.

DS21755C-page 17 TC646B/TC648B/TC649B 5.0 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION 5.1 Setting the PWM Frequency One of the simplest ways of sensing temperature over a given range is to use a thermistor. By using a NTC thermistor, as shown in Figure 5-1, a temperaturevariant voltage can be created. The PWM frequency of the VOUT output is set by the capacitor value attached to the CF pin. The PWM frequency will be 30 Hz (typical) for a 1 µF capacitor. The relationship between frequency and capacitor value is linear, making alternate frequency selections easy. As stated in previous sections, the PWM frequency should be kept in the range of 15 Hz to 35 Hz. This will eliminate the possibility of having audible frequencies when varying the duty cycle of the fan drive. A very important factor to consider when selecting the PWM frequency for the TC646B/TC648B/TC649B devices is the RPM rating of the selected fan and the minimum duty cycle that you will be operating at. For fans that have a full-speed rating of 3000 RPM or less, it is desirable to use a lower PWM frequency. A lower PWM frequency allows for a longer time-period to monitor the fan current pulses. The goal is to be able to monitor at least two fan current pulses during the ontime of the VOUT output. Example: The system design requirement is to operate the fan at 50% duty cycle when ambient temperatures are below 20°C. The fan full-speed RPM rating is 3000 RPM and has four current pulses per rotation. At 50% duty cycle, the fan will be operating at approximately 1500 RPM. EQUATION 60 1000 Time for one revolution (msec.) = ------------------------ = 40 1500 If one fan revolution occurs in 40 msec, each fan pulse occurs 10 msec apart. In order to detect two fan current pulses, the on-time of the VOUT pulse must be at least 20 msec. With the duty cycle at 50%, the total period of one cycle must be at least 40 msec, which makes the PWM frequency 25 Hz. For this example, a PWM frequency of 20 Hz is recommended. This would define a CF capacitor value of 1.5 µF. 5.2 Temperature Sensor Design As discussed in previous sections, the VIN analog input has a range of 1.20V to 2.60V (typical), which represents a duty cycle range on the VOUT output of 0% to 100%, respectively. The VIN voltages can be thought of as representing temperatures. The 1.20V level is the low temperature at which the system requires very little cooling. The 2.60V level is the high temperature, for which the system needs maximum cooling capability (100% fan speed). DS21755C-page 18 VDD IDIV RT R1 VIN R2 FIGURE 5-1: Circuit. Temperature Sensing Figure 5-1 represents a temperature-dependent, voltage divider circuit. RT is a conventional NTC thermistor, R1 and R2 are standard resistors. R1 and RT form a parallel resistor combination that will be referred to as RTEMP (RTEMP = R1 * RT / R1 + RT). As the temperature increases, the value of RT decreases and the value of RTEMP will decrease with it. Accordingly, the voltage at VIN increases as temperature increases, giving the desired relationship for the VIN input. R1 helps to linearize the response of the SENSE network and aids in obtaining the proper VIN voltages over the desired temperature range. An example of this is shown in Figure 5-2. If less current draw from VDD is desired, a larger value thermistor should be chosen. The voltage at the VIN pin can also be generated by a voltage output temperature sensor device. The key is to get the desired VIN voltage-to-system (or component) temperature relationship. The following equations apply to the circuit in Figure 5-1. EQUATION VDD R2 V T1 = ---------------------------------------------RTEMP T1 + R2 VDD R2 V T2 = ---------------------------------------------RTEMP T2 + R2 In order to solve for the values of R1, R2, VIN and the temperatures at which they are to occur, need to be selected. The variables T1 and T2 represent the selected temperatures. The value of the thermistor at these two temperatures can be found in the thermistor 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B data sheet. With the values for the thermistor and the values for VIN, you now have two equations from which the values for R1 and R2 can be found. Example: The following design goals are desired: • Duty Cycle = 50% (VIN = 1.90V) with Temperature (T1) = 30°C • Duty Cycle = 100% (VIN = 2.60V) with Temperature (T2) = 60°C Using a 100 k thermistor (25°C value), we look up the thermistor values at the desired temperatures: • RT (T1) = 79428 @ 30°C • RT (T2) = 22593 @ 60°C Substituting these numbers into the given equations produces the following numbers for R1 and R2. • R1 = 34.8 k • R2 = 14.7 k FanSense Network (RSENSE and CSENSE) The SENSE network (comprised of RSENSE and CSENSE) allows the TC646B and TC649B devices to detect commutation of the fan motor. RSENSE converts the fan current into a voltage. CSENSE AC couples this voltage signal to the SENSE pin. The goal of the SENSE network is to provide a voltage pulse to the SENSE pin that has a minimum amplitude of 90 mV. This will ensure that the current pulse caused by the fan commutation is recognized by the TC646B/TC649B device. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for CSENSE. Smaller values will require that larger sense resistors be used. Using a 0.1 µF capacitor results in reasonable values for RSENSE. Figure 5-3 illustrates a typical SENSE network. 4.000 3.500 VIN Voltage 120 FAN 3.000 100 RISO 2.500 80 2.000 60 NTC Thermistor 100 k: @ 25ºC 40 20 0 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 VOUT 715 1.500 1.000 0.500 RTEMP 20 VIN (V) Network Resistance (k:) 140 5.4 SENSE CSENSE (0.1 µF typical) 0.000 100 RSENSE Temperature (ºC) Note: FIGURE 5-2: How Thermistor Resistance, VIN, and RTEMP Vary With Temperature. Figure 5-2 graphs RT, RTEMP (R1 in parallel with RT) and VIN, versus temperature for the example shown above. 5.3 Thermistor Selection As with any component, there are a number of sources for thermistors. A listing of companies that manufacture thermistors can be found at www.temperatures.com/ thermivendors.html. This website lists over forty suppliers of thermistor products. A brief list is shown here: - Thermometrics® - Quality Thermistor™ - Ametherm® - Sensor Scientific™ - U.S. Sensor™ - Vishay® - Advanced Thermal Products™ - muRata® 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. FIGURE 5-3: See Table 5-1 for RSENSE values. Typical Sense Network. The required value of RSENSE will change with the current rating of the fan and the fan current waveshape. A key point is that the current rating of the fan specified by the manufacturer may be a worst-case rating, with the actual current drawn by the fan being lower than this rating. For the purposes of setting the value for RSENSE, the operating fan current should be measured to get the nominal value. This can be done by using an oscilloscope current probe or using a voltage probe with a low-value resistor (0.5). Another good tool for this exercise is the TC642 Evaluation Board. This board allows the RSENSE and CSENSE values to be easily changed while allowing the voltage waveforms to be monitored to ensure the proper levels are being reached. Table 5-1 shows values of RSENSE according to the nominal operating current of the fan. The fan currents are average values. If the fan current falls between two of the values listed, use the higher resistor value. DS21755C-page 19 TC646B/TC648B/TC649B TABLE 5-1: FAN CURRENT VS. RSENSE Nominal Fan Current (mA) RSENSE () 50 9.1 100 4.7 150 3.0 200 2.4 250 2.0 300 1.8 350 1.5 400 1.3 450 1.2 500 1.0 The values listed in Table 5-1 are for fans that have the fan current waveshape shown in Figure 4-7. With this waveshape, the average fan current is closer to the peak value, which requires the resistor value to be higher. When using a fan that has the fan current waveshape shown in Figure 4-6, the resistor value can often be decreased since the current peaks are higher than the average and it is the AC portion of the voltage that gets coupled to the SENSE pin. The key point when selecting an RSENSE value is to try to minimize the value in order to minimize the power dissipation in the resistor. In order to do this, it is critical to know the waveshape of the fan current and not just the average value. Figure 5-4 shows some typical waveforms for the fan current and the voltage at the SENSE pin. Another important factor to consider when selecting the RSENSE value is the fan current value during a lockedrotor condition. When a fan is in a locked-rotor condition (fan blades are stopped even though power is being applied to the fan), the fan current can increase dramatically (often 2.5 to 3.0 times the normal operating fan current). This will effect the power rating of the RSENSE resistor selected. When selecting the fan for the application, the current draw of the fan during a locked-rotor condition should be considered. Especially if multiple fans are being used in the application. There are two main types of fan designs when looking at fan current draw during a locked-rotor condition. The first is a fan that will simply draw high DC currents when put into a locked-rotor condition. Many older fans were designed this way. An example of this is a fan that draws an average current of 100 mA during normal operation. In a locked-rotor condition, this fan will draw 250 mA of average current. For this design, the RSENSE power rating must be sized to handle the 250 mA condition. The fan bias supply must also take this into account. The second style design, which represents many of the newer fan designs today, acts to limit the current in a locked-rotor condition by going into a pulse mode of operation. An example of the fan current waveshape for this style fan is shown in Figure 5-5. The fan represented in Figure 5-5 is a Panasonic®, 12V, 220 mA fan. During the on-time of the waveform, the fan current is peaking up to 550 mA. Due to the pulse mode operation, the actual RMS current of the fan is very near the 220 mA rating. Because of this, the power rating for the RSENSE resistor does not have to be oversized for this application. FIGURE 5-4: Typical Fan Current and SENSE Pin Waveforms. DS21755C-page 20 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B FIGURE 5-5: 5.5 Fan Current During a Locked Rotor Condition. Output Drive Device Selection The TC646B/TC648B/TC649B is designed to drive an external NPN transistor or N-channel MOSFET as the fan speed modulating element. These two arrangements are shown in Figure 5-7. For lower-current fans, NPN transistors are a very economical choice for the fan drive device. It is recommended that, for higher current fans (300 mA and above), MOSFETs be used as the fan drive device. Table 5-2 provides some possible part numbers for use as the fan drive element. The following is recommended: • Ask how the fan is designed. If the fan has clamp diodes internally, this problem will not be seen. If the fan does not have internal clamp diodes, it is a good idea to install one externally (Figure 5-6). Putting a resistor between VOUT and the gate of the MOSFET will also help slow down the turn-off and limit this condition. When using a NPN transistor as the fan drive element, a base current-limiting resistor must be used. This is shown in Figure 5-7. When using MOSFETs as the fan drive element, it is very easy to turn the MOSFETs on and off at very high rates. Because the gate capacitances of these small MOSFETs are very low, the TC646B/TC648B/TC649B can charge and discharge them very quickly, leading to very fast edges. Of key concern is the turn-off edge of the MOSFET. Since the fan motor winding is essentially an inductor, once the MOSFET is turned off the current that was flowing through the motor wants to continue to flow. If the fan does not have internal clamp diodes around the windings of the motor, there is no path for this current to flow through and the voltage at the drain of the MOSFET may rise until the drain-to-source rating of the MOSFET is exceeded. This will most likely cause the MOSFET to go into avalanche mode. Since there is very little energy in this occurrence, it will probably not fail the device, but it would be a long-term reliability issue. 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc.

These drive devices are suggestions only. Fan currents listed are for individual fans. Bias Supply Bypassing and Noise Filtering The bias supply (VDD) for the TC646B/TC648B/ TC649B devices should be bypassed with a 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor. This capacitor will help supply the peak currents that are required to drive the base/gate of the external fan drive devices. As the VIN pin controls the duty cycle in a linear fashion, any noise on this pin can cause duty cycle jittering. For this reason, the VIN pin should be bypassed with a 0.01 µF capacitor. In order to keep fan noise off of the TC646B/TC648B/ TC649B device ground, individual ground returns for the TC646B/TC648B/TC649B and the low side of the fan current sense resistor should be used. DS21755C-page 22 5.7 Design Example/Typical Application The system has been designed with the following components and criteria: System inlet air ambient temperature ranges from 0ºC to 50ºC. At 20ºC, system cooling is no longer required, so the fan is to be turned off. Prior to turn-off, the fan should be run at 40% of its full fan speed. Full fan speed should be reached when the ambient air is 40ºC. The system has a surface mount, NTC-style thermistor in a 1206 package. The thermistor is mounted on a daughtercard that is directly in the inlet air stream. The thermistor is a NTC, 100 k @ 25ºC, Thermometrics® part number NHQ104B425R5. The given Beta for the thermistor is 4250. The system bias voltage to run the fan controller is 5V, while the fan voltage is 12V. 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B The fan used in the system is a Panasonic®, Panaflo®series fan, model number FBA06T12H. A fault indication is desired when the fan is in a lockedrotor condition. This signal is used to indicate to the system that cooling is not available and a warning should be issued to the user. No fault indication from the fan controller is necessary for an over-temperature condition as this is being reported elsewhere. Step 1: Gathering Information. The first step in the design process is to gather the needed data on the fan and thermistor. For the fan, it is also a good idea to look at the fan current waveform, as indicated earlier in the data sheet. Fan Information: Panasonic number: FBA06T12H - Voltage = 12V - Current = 145 mA (data sheet number) FIGURE 5-9: Fan Current. FBA06T12H Locked-Rotor From Figure 5-9, it is seen that in a locked-rotor fault condition, the fan goes into a pulsed current mode of operation. During this mode, when the fan is conducting current, the peak current value is 360 mA for periods of 200 msec. This is significantly higher than the average full fan speed current shown in Figure 5-8. However, because of the pulse mode, the average fan current in a locked-rotor condition is lower and was measured at 68 mA. The RMS current during this mode, which is necessary for current sense resistor (RSENSE) value selection, was measured at 154 mA. This is slightly higher than the RMS value during full fan speed operation. FIGURE 5-8: Waveform. FBA06T12H Fan Current From the waveform in Figure 5-8, the fan current has an average value of 120 mA, with peaks up to 150 mA. This information will help in the selection of the RSENSE and CSENSE values later on. Also of interest for the RSENSE selection value is what the fan current does in a locked-rotor condition. Thermistor Information: Thermometrics part number: NHQ104B425R5 - Resistance Value: 100 k @ 25ºC - Beta Value (): 4250 From this information, the thermistor values at 20ºC and 40ºC must be found. This information is needed in order to select the proper resistor values for R1 and R2 (see Figure 5-13), which sets the VIN voltage. The equation for determining the thermistor values is shown below: EQUATION TO – T RT = RTO exp -----------------------T TO RT0 is the thermistor value at 25ºC. T0 is 298.15 and T is the temperature of interest. All temperatures are in degrees kelvin. Using this equation, the values for the thermistor are found to be: - RT (20ºC) = 127,462 - RT (40ºC) = 50,520 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. DS21755C-page 23 TC646B/TC648B/TC649B Step 3: Setting the PWM Frequency. The fan is rated at 4200 RPM with a 12V input. The goal is to run to a 40% duty cycle (roughly 40% fan speed), which equates to approximately 1700 RPM. At 1700 RPM, one full fan revolution occurs every 35 msec. The fan being used is a four-pole fan that gives four current pulses per revolution. With this information, and viewing test results at 40% duty cycle, two fan current pulses were always seen during the PWM on time with a PWM frequency of 30 Hz. For this reason, the CF value is selected to be 1.0 µF. Step 4: Setting the VIN Voltage. From the design criteria, the desired duty cycle at 20ºC is 40% and full fan speed should be reached at 40ºC. Based on a VIN voltage range of 1.20V to 2.60V, which represents 0% to 100% duty cycle, the 40% duty cycle voltage can be found using the following equation: - R1 = 237 k - R2 = 45.3 k A graph of the VIN voltage, thermistor resistance and RTEMP resistance versus temperature for this configuration is shown in Figure 5-10. 400 5.00 4.50 350 4.00 VIN 300 3.50 250 3.00 200 2.50 150 2.00 NTC Thermistor 100 k: @ 25ºC 100 VIN (V) The requirements for the fan controller are that it have auto-shutdown capability at 20ºC and also indicate a fan fault condition. No over-temperature indication is necessary. From these specifications, the proper selection is the TC649B device. Using standard 1% resistor values, the selected R1 and R2 values are: Network Resistance (k:) Step 2: Selecting the Fan Controller. 1.50 1.00 50 RTEMP 0.50 0 0.00 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Temperature (ºC) FIGURE 5-10: Thermistor Resistance, VIN and RTEMP vs. Temperature Step 5: Setting the Auto-Shutdown Voltage (VAS). EQUATION VIN = (DC * 1.4V) + 1.20V DC = Desired Duty Cycle Using the above equation, the VIN values are calculated to be: - VIN (40%) = 1.76V - VIN (100%) = 2.60V Setting the voltage for the auto-shutdown is done using a simple resistor voltage divider. The criteria for the voltage divider in this design is that it draw no more than 100 µA of current. The required auto-shutdown voltage was determined earlier in the selection of the VIN voltage at 40% duty cycle, since this was also set at the temperature that auto-shutdown is to occur (20ºC). - VAS = 1.76V Using these values along with the thermistor resistance values calculated earlier, the R1 and R2 resistor values can now be calculated using the following equation: Given this desired setpoint and knowing the desired divider current, the following equations can be used to solve for the resistor values for R3 and R4: EQUATION EQUATION VDD R2 V T1 = -----------------------------------------R TEMP T1 + R 2 IDIV = VDD R2 V T2 = -----------------------------------------R TEMP T2 + R 2 VAS = RTEMP is the parallel combination of R1 and the thermistor. V(T1) represents the VIN voltage at 20ºC and V(T2) represents the VIN voltage at 40ºC. Solving the equations simultaneously yields the following values (VDD = 5V): - R1 = 238,455 - R2 = 45,161 DS21755C-page 24 5V R3 + R4 5V * R4 R3 + R4 Using the equations above, the resistor values for R3 and R4 are found to be: - R3 = 32.4 k - R4 = 17.6 k Using standard 1% resistor values yields the following values: - R3 = 32.4 k - R4 = 17.8 k 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc. TC646B/TC648B/TC649B Step 6: Selecting the Fan Drive Device (Q1). Since the fan operating current is below 200 mA, a transistor or MOSFET can be used as the fan drive device. In order to reduce component count and current draw, the drive device for this design is chosen to be a N-channel MOSFET. Selecting from Table 5-2, there are two MOSFETs that are good choices, the MGSF1N02E and the SI2302. These devices have the same pinout and are interchangeable for this design. Step 7: Selecting the RSENSE and CSENSE Values. The goal again for selecting these values is to ensure that the signal at the SENSE pin is 90 mV in amplitude under all operating conditions. This will ensure that the pulses are detected by the TC649B device and that the fan operation is detected. The fan current waveform is shown in Figure 5-8, and as discussed previously, with a waveform of this shape, the current sense resistor values shown in Table 5-1 are good reference values. Given the average fan operating current was measured to be 120 mA, this falls between two of the values listed in the table. For reference purposes, both values have been tested and these results are shown in Figures 5-11 (4.7) and 5-12 (3.0). The selected CSENSE value is 0.1 µF, as this provides the appropriate coupling of the voltage to the SENSE pin. FIGURE 5-12: SENSE pin voltage with 3.0 sense resistor. Since the 3.0 value of sense resistor provides the proper voltage to the SENSE pin, it is the correct choice for this solution as it will also provide the lowest power dissipation and the maximum amount of voltage to the fan. Using the RMS fan current which was measured previously, the power dissipation in the resistor during a fan fault condition is 71 mW (Irms2 * RSENSE). This number will set the wattage rating of the resistor that is selected. The selected value will vary depending upon the derating guidelines that are used. Now that all the values have been selected, the schematic representation of this design can be seen in Figure 5-13.

Bypass capacitor CVDD is added to the design to decouple the bias voltage. This is good to have, especially when using a MOSFET as the drive device. This helps to give a localized low-impedance source for the current required to charge the gate capacitance of Q1. Two other bypass capacitors (labeled as CB) were also added to decouple the VIN and VAS nodes. These were added simply to remove any noise present that might cause false triggerings or PWM jitter. R5 is the pull-up resistor for the FAULT output. The value for this resistor is system-dependent. DS21755C-page 26 2002-2013 Microchip Technology Inc.
