MAX1669 Datasheet Fan Controller And Remote Temperature Sensor With Smbus Serial Interface

Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices)

Overview: 19-1574; Rev 0; 1/00 Fan Controller and Remote Temperature Sensor with SMBus Serial.

General Description

The MAX1669 fan controller includes a precise digital thermometer that reports the temperature of a remote sensor.

The remote sensor is a diode-connected transistor—typically a low-cost, easily mounted 2N3906 PNP type—replacing conventional thermistors or thermocouples.

Remote accuracy is ±3°C for transistors from multiple manufacturers, with no calibration needed.

Key Features

  • include general-purpose inputs/outputs (GPIOs) for fan presence detection and a thermostat output intended as a fan override signal in case the host system loses the ability to communicate. The internal ADC has a wide input voltage range and gives overrange readings when too large an input voltage is applied. Other error-checking includes temperature out-of-range indication and diode open/short faults. The MAX1669 is available in a space-saving 16-pin QSOP package that allows it to fit adjacent.
