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:
reconfigured to suit different system requirements and
physical layouts. These multifunction pins are software
programmable.
During system design, the motherboard sensing and

For example, locating the ADT7476 close to the VRM
controller circuitry allows the VRM temperature to be
monitored using the local temperature channel.
