Functional Description
In Auto Fan Mode, when the temperature for a zone is above the Temperature Limit (Registers 67-69h) and below its Absolute
Temperature Limit (Registers 6A-6Ch), the speed of a fan assigned to that zone is determined as follows.
When the temperature reaches the Fan Temp Limit for a zone, the PWM output assigned to that zone will be Fan PWM Minimum.
Between Fan Temp Limit and (Fan Temp Limit + Range), the PWM duty cycle will increase linearly according to the temperature
as shown in the figure below. The PWM duty cycle will be 100% at (Fan Temp Limit + Range).
Example for PWM1 assigned to Zone 1:
In this case, the PWM1 duty cycle will be 50% at 50˚C.
Since (Zone 1 Fan Temp Limit) + (Zone 1 Range) = 50˚C + 8˚C = 58˚C, the fan will run at 100% duty cycle when the temperature
of the Zone 1 sensor reaches 58˚C.
Since the midpoint of the fan control range is 54˚C, and the median duty cycle is 75% (Halfway between the PWM Minimum and
100%), PWM1 duty cycle would be 75% at 54˚C.
Above (Zone 1 Fan Temp Limit) + (Zone 1 Range), the duty cycle will be 100%.
PWM frequency bits [3:0]
The PWM frequency bits [3:0] determine the PWM frequency for the fan.
