MAX6615 Datasheet (Maxim Integrated Products) - Dual-Channel Temperature Monitors and Fan-Speed Controllers

MAX6615, Dual-Channel Temperature Monitors and Fan-Speed Controllers

The MAX6615/MAX6616 monitor two temperature channels, either the internal die temperature and the temperature of an external thermistor, or the temperatures of two external thermistors.

The temperature data controls a PWM output signal to adjust the speed of a cooling fan, thereby minimizing noise w

MAX6615 Features

* six GPIOs to provide additional flexibility. All of the GPIOs power-up as inputs, with the exception of GPIO0, which powers up as either an input or an output as determined by connecting the PRESET pin to ground or VCC. The MAX6616 is available in a 24-pin QSOP package, while the MAX6615 is availabl
