Inputs are provides for signals from fans equipped with tachometer outputs. The level of these signals
should be set to TTL level, and maximum input voltage can not be over +5.5V. If the input signals from
the tachometer outputs are over the VCC, the external trimming circuit should be added to reduce the
voltage to obtain the input specification. The normal circuit and trimming circuits are shown as Figure
9.4.
Determine the fan counter according to:
In other words, the fan speed counter has been read from register CR28 or CR29 or CR2A, the fan speed
can be evaluated by the following equation.
The default divisor is 2 and defined at CR47.bit7~4, and Bank0 CR5D.bit5~7 which are three bits for
divisor. That provides very low speed fan counter such as power supply fan. The followed table is an
example for the relation of divisor, PRM, and count.
