General Description
G760 is a single chip solution for fan speed control,
packaged in a space saving SO-8 package. It con-
nects directly to the fan and performs closed-loop
control of the fan speed. The only external compo-
nent required is a 10碌F capacitor. It determined the
current fan speed based on the fan rotation pulses
and an externally supplied clock. It uses pulse width
modulation (PWM) method and an on-chip
MOSFET to control the fan speed to
鹵2%
of the
programmed speed. The desired fan speed is pro-
grammed via the SMBus. The actual fan speed and
fan status can be read via the SMBus. Short-circuit
protection is implemented to prevent damages to
the fan and this IC itself. An On/Off control pin is
also provided.
