Step 2: Selecting the Fan Controller.
The requirements for the fan controller are that it have
auto-shutdown capability at 20ºC and also indicate a
fan fault condition. No over-temperature indication is
necessary. From these specifications, the proper
selection is the TC649B device.
Step 3: Setting the PWM Frequency.
The fan is rated at 4200 RPM with a 12V input. The
goal is to run to a 40% duty cycle (roughly 40% fan
speed), which equates to approximately 1700 RPM. At
1700 RPM, one full fan revolution occurs every
35 msec. The fan being used is a four-pole fan that
gives four current pulses per revolution. With this infor-
mation, and viewing test results at 40% duty cycle, two
fan current pulses were always seen during the PWM
on time with a PWM frequency of 30 Hz. For this rea-
son, the C
Step 4: Setting the V
From the design criteria, the desired duty cycle at 20ºC
is 40% and full fan speed should be reached at 40ºC.
Based on a V
represents 0% to 100% duty cycle, the 40% duty cycle
voltage can be found using the following equation:

Using the above equation, the V

Using these values along with the thermistor resistance
values calculated earlier, the R

Step 5: Setting the Auto-Shutdown Voltage (V
Setting the voltage for the auto-shutdown is done using
a simple resistor voltage divider. The criteria for the
voltage divider in this design is that it draw no more
than 100 µA of current. The required auto-shutdown
voltage was determined earlier in the selection of the
V
at the temperature that auto-shutdown is to occur
(20ºC).
Given this desired setpoint and knowing the desired
divider current, the following equations can be used to
solve for the resistor values for R
