Fan Speed vs. Sensor Temperature
The relationship between fan speed, as a per-
centage of full speed, and sensed temperature
is shown in Figure 2. Full speed occurs at the
Control Temperature (Tc). Minimum speed tem-
perature (approx. 50% of full speed) depends
on part number. For closed loop units, the “X”
in Figure 2 is equal to 3. For open loop units the
“X” in Figure 2 is equal to 12.
Temperature Alarm Output (J2)
An over-temperature alarm output is provided at
header J2. This open collector output is designed
to drive an LED. Pins J2:+ and J2:C are internally
connected to the power supply (P+) and a transis-
tor’s collector, respectively. When the alarm is
closed, Pin C is at circuit ground (P-).
Alarm Type:
Non-Isolated Open-Collector
Trigger:
10°C Above Control Temperature
Alarm States:
Cut-Off (Open), Below Trigger
Conducting (Closed), Above Trigger,
Cut-Off (Open), Un-powered state
Max. Voltage:
30 VDC
Max. Current
20 mA DC
Figure 1 shows two alarm configurations that allow the LED alarm
output to be internally powered by the board supply voltage or by a
current limited external supply.
