fan control loop by adjusting the T
performance and measured temperature. This is important
because instead of designing for the worst case, the system
thermals can be defined as operating zones. The ADT7473 can
self-adjust its fan control loop to
zone temperature or a system target temperature. For example,
it can be specified that the ambient temperature in a system
should be maintained at 50°C. If the temperature is below 50°C
the fans might not need to run, or might run very slowly. If the
temperature is higher than 50°C, the fans need to throttle up.
The challenge presented by any thermal design is finding the
right settings to suit the system’s fan cont
involve designing for the worst case, followed by weeks of
system thermal characterization, and finally fan acoustic
optimization (for psycho-acoustic reasons). Getting the most
benefit from the auto
izing the system to find the best T
control loop, and the best PWM
speed setting. Using the ADT7473’s dynamic T
mode, however, shortens the characterization time and
alleviates tweaking the control loop settings because the de
can self-adjust during system operation.

Associated with this control mode are three operating po
