impedance of the tachometer input (150kΩ max) or the
feedback input (150kΩ max).
A compensation capacitor is needed from the fan’s low
side to ground to stabilize the analog control loop.
Typically, this capacitor should be 10µF, but depend-
ing on the type of fan being used, a value between 1µF
and 100µF may be required. The proper value has
been selected when no ringing is present on the volt-
age at the fan’s low side.

For closed-loop operation and fan monitoring, the
MAX6650/MAX6651 require fans with tachometer outputs.
A tachometer output is typically specified as an option on
many fan models from a variety of manufacturers. Verify
the nature of the tachometer output (open collector, totem-
pole) and the resultant levels, and configure the connec-
tion to the MAX6650/MAX6651 accordingly. Note how
many pulses per revolution are generated by the
tachometer output (this varies from model to model and
among manufacturers, though two pulses per revolution is
the most common).
Table 10 lists the representative fan manufacturers and
the models they make available with tachometer outputs.
Brushless DC fans increase reliability by replacing
mechanical commutation with electronic commutation. By
lowering the voltage across the fan to reduce its speed,
the MAX6650/MAX6651 are also lowering the supply volt-
age for the electronic commutation and tachometer elec-
tronics. If the voltage supplied to the fan is lowered too
far, the internal electronics may no longer function prop-
erly. Some of the following symptoms are possible:
• The fan may stop spinning.
• The tachometer output may stop generating a signal.
• The tachometer output may generate more than two
The problems that occur, and the supply voltages at
which they occur, depend on which fan is used. As a
