The TC650/TC651 acquire and convert their junction
temperature (T
state sensor with a typical accuracy of ±1°C. The tem-
perature data is digitally stored in an internal register.
The register is compared with pre-defined threshold val-
ues. The six threshold values are equally distributed
over a pre-defined range of temperatures (see Table 4-
1). The TC650/TC651 control the speed of a DC brush-
less fan using a fractional speed-control scheme. The
output stage requires only a 2N2222-type, small-signal
BJT for fans up to 300 mA. For larger current fans (up
to 1 amp), a logic-level N-channel MOSFET may be
used. In addition to controlling the speed of the fan, the
TC650/TC651 include an on-chip overtemperature
alarm (T
ature of the chip exceeds T
ture eliminates the need for a separate temperature
sensor for overtemperature monitoring. Figure 4-1
shows the block diagram of the device.

4.1
The PWM pin is designed to drive a low-cost transistor
or MOSFET as the low-side, power-switching element
in the system. This output has an asymmetric
complementary drive and is optimized for driving NPN
transistors or N-channel MOSFETs. Since the system
relies on PWM rather than linear power control, the
dissipation in the power switch is kept to a minimum.
Generally, very small devices (TO-92 or SOT
packages) will suffice. The frequency of the PWM is
about 15 Hz. The PWM is also the time base for the
Start-up Timer (see Section 4.2 “Start-Up Timer”).
The PWM duty cycle has a range of 40% to 100% for
the TC650 and 50% to 100% for the TC651.

To ensure reliable fan start-up, the Start-up Timer turns
PWM high for about 2 seconds whenever the fan is
started from the off state. This occurs at power-up and
when coming out of Shutdown mode.

This pin goes low when the T
10°C (typical). This indicates that the fan is at
maximum drive and the potential exists for system
overheating; either heat dissipation in the system has
gone beyond the cooling system's design limits or
some fault exists (such as fan bearing failure or an air-
flow obstruction). This output may be treated as a
“System Overheat” warning and be used to either
trigger system shutdown or bring other fans in the
system to full speed. The fan will continue to run at full

need to conserve as much battery power as possible
