Mux Configuration Example
system using the ADT7473/ADT7473−1 to control three
fans. The CPU fan sink is controlled by PWM1, the front
chassis fan is controlled by PWM2, and the rear chassis fan
is controlled by PWM3. The mux is configured for the
following fan control behaviors:

TACH rising edges are counted. See the Fan Startup
Timeout section for more details. In some cases, primarily
for psycho−acoustic reasons, it is desirable that the fan never
switches off below T

To overcome fan inertia, the fan is spun up until two valid
PWM1 (CPU fan sink) is controlled by the fastest speed
calculated by the local (VRM temperature) and
Remote 2 (processor) temperature. In this case, the
CPU fan sink is also used to cool the VRM.
PWM2 (front chassis fan) is controlled by the Remote 1
temperature (ambient).
