ZN1E, ZN2E, and ZN3E enable temperature smoothing for zones 1, 2, and 3 respectively.
ZN1-2, ZN1-1, and ZN1-0 control smoothing time for Zone 1.
ZN2-2, ZN2-1, and ZN2-0 control smoothing time for Zone 2.
ZN3-2, ZN3-1, and ZN3-0 control smoothing time for Zone 3.
If the Remote1 or Remote2 pins are connected to a processor or chipset, instantaneous temperature spikes may be sampled by
the LM96000. If these spikes are not ignored, the CPU fan (if connected to LM96000) may turn on prematurely and produce
unpleasant noise. For this reason, any zone that is connected to a chipset or processor should have spike smoothing enabled.
When spike smoothing is enabled, the temperature reading registers will still reflect the current value of the temperature — not the
‘smoothed out’ value.
These registers become ready only when the Ready/Lock/Start/Override register Lock bit is set. Any further attempts to write to
these registers shall have no effect.
