For the TC646B, TC648B and TC649B devices, pin 3
is the V
threshold voltage.
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.

previously discussed, the duty cycle of the V

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 V
output.
The V
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.

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-temper-
ature (OTF) condition has occurred. For the TC648B
device, pin 6 is the OTF output that indicates an over-
temperature (OTF) condition has occurred.
