Designing with the TC642 involves the following:
(1) The temp sensor network must be configured to
(2) The minimum fan speed (V
(3) The output drive transistor and associated circuitry
(4) The SENSE network, R
(5) If shutdown capability is desired, the drive require-

The TC642 demonstration and prototyping board
(TC642DEMO), and
(TC642EV), provide working examples of TC642 cir-
cuits and prototyping aids. The TC642DEMO is a
printed circuit board optimized for small size and ease
of inclusion into system prototypes. The TC642EV is a
larger board intended for benchtop development and
analysis. At the very least, anyone contemplating a
design using the TC642 should consult the documen-
tation for both TC642EV (DS21403) and TC642DEMO
(DS21401).
