connected as shown in Figure 52. Both CPU temperature
and VRM temperature drive the CPU fan connected to
PWM1. Ambient temperature drives the front chassis fan
and rear chassis fan connected to PWM2 and PWM3. The
front chassis fan is configured to run at PWM
The rear chassis fan is configured to run at PWM
The CPU fan is configured to run at PWM
that of 3−wire fans. In many cases, 4-wire fans can start with
a PWM drive of as little as 20% or less. In extreme cases,
some 3-wire fans cannot run unless a PWM drive of 60% or
more is applied.
