Step 1: Hardware Configuration
control capabilities should be addressed early in the design
stages. Decisions about how these capabilities are used
should involve the system thermal/mechanical engineer.
Ask the following questions:
During system design, the motherboard sensing and

three or four? This influences the choice of
PWM2 or SMBALERT?
TACH4 fan speed measurement or
overtemperature THERM function?
The ADT7475 offers multifunctional pins that
can be reconfigured to suit different system
requirements and physical layouts. These
multifunction pins are software programmable.

If run at 100%, this frees up a PWM output, but
the system is louder.

This influences the assignment of the temperature
measurement channels to particular system
thermal zones. For example, locating the
ADT7475 close to the VRM controller circuitry
allows the VRM temperature to be monitored
using the local temperature channel.
