? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 9 TC654/tc655 4.0 device operation the TC654 and tc655 devices allow you to control, monitor and communicate (via smbus) fan speed for 2- wire and 3-wire dc brushless fans. by pulse width modulating (pwm) the voltage across the fan, the TC654/tc655 controls fan speed according to the sys- tem temperature.the goal of temperature proportional fan speed control is to reduce fan power consumption, increase fan life and reduce system acoustic noise. with the TC654 and tc655 devices, fan speed can be controlled by the analog input v in or the smbus inter- face, allowing for high system flexibility. the TC654 and tc655 also measure and monitor fan revolutions per minute (rpm). a fan?s speed (rpm) is a measure of its health. as a fan?s bearings wear out, the fan slows down and eventually stops (locked rotor). by monitoring the fan?s rpm level, the TC654/tc655 devices can detect open, shorted, unconnected and locked rotor fan conditions. the fan speed threshold can be set to provide a predictive fan failure feature. this feature can be used to give a system warning and, in many cases, help to avoid a system thermal shut- down condition. the fan rpm data and threshold reg- isters are available over the smbus interface which allows for complete system control. the TC654/tc655 devices are identical in every aspect except for how they indicate an over-tempera- ture condition. when v in voltage exceeds 2.6 v (typi- cal), both devices will set otf (bit 5) in the status register to a ' 1 '. the tc655 will additionally pull the fault output low during an over-temperature condi- tion. figure 4-1: typical application circuit. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 v in c f sclk sda gnd fault sense2 sense1 v out v dd +5 v fan fan r iso1 r iso2 r sense2 r sense1 c sense2 c sense1 12 ntc thermistor r 1 r 2 c 1 0.01 f c 2 1f 100 k ? @ 25c picmicro ? microcontroller +12 v +5 v +5 v +5 v +5 v 34.8 k ? 14.7 k ? c f 1.0 f r sclk 20 k ? r sda 20 k ? 715 ? 0.1 f 0.1 f 715 ? r fault 20 k ? note: refer to table 7-1 for r sense1 and r sense2 values.

TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 10 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. 4.1 fan speed control methods the speed of a dc brushless fan is proportional to the voltage across it. for example, if a fan?s rating is 5000 rpm at 12 v, it?s speed would be 2500 rpm at 6 v. this, of course, will not be exact, but should be close. there are two main methods for fan speed control. the first is pulse width modulation (pwm) and the second is linear. using either method the total system power requirement to run the fan is equal. the difference between the two methods is where the power is consumed. the following example compares the two methods for a 12 v, 120 ma fan running at 50% speed. with 6 v applied across the fan, the fan draws an average cur- rent of 68 ma. using a linear control method, there is 6v across the fan and 6v across the drive element. with 6 v and 68 ma, the drive element is dissipating 410 mw of power. using the pwm approach, the fan is modulated at a 50% duty cycle, with most of the 12 v being dropped across the fan. with 50% duty cycle, the fan draws an rms current of 110 ma and an average current of 72 ma. using a mosfet with a 1 ? rds (on) (a fairly typical value for this low current) the power dis- sipation in the drive element would be: 12 mw (irms 2 * rds (on) ). using a standard 2n2222a npn transistor (assuming a vce-sat of 0.8 v), the power dissipation would be 58 mw (iavg* vce-sat). the pwm approach to fan speed control causes much less power dissipation in the drive element. this allows smaller devices to be used and will not require any spe- cial heatsinking to get rid of the power being dissipated in the package. the other advantage to the pwm approach is that the voltage being applied to the fan is always near 12 v. this eliminates any concern about not supplying a high enough voltage to run the internal fan components which is very relevant in linear fan speed control. 4.2 pwm fan speed control the TC654 and tc655 devices implement pwm fan speed control by varying the duty cycle of a fixed fre- quency pulse train. the duty cycle of a waveform is the on time divided by the total period of the pulse. for example, given a 100 hz waveform (10 msec.) with an on time of 5.0 msec, the duty cycle of this waveform is 50% (5.0 msec/10.0 msec). an example of this is illustrated in figure 4-2. figure 4-2: duty cycle of a pwm waveform. the TC654 and tc655 generate a pulse train with a typical frequency of 30 hz (c f = 1 f). the duty cycle can be varied from 30% to 100%. the pulse train gen- erated by the TC654/tc655 devices drives the gate of an external n-channel mosfet or the base of an npn transistor (figure 4-3). see section 7.5 for more information on output drive device selection. figure 4-3: pwm fan drive. by modulating the voltage applied to the gate of the mosfet qdrive, the voltage applied to the fan is also modulated. when the v out pulse is high, the gate of the mosfet is turned on, pulling the voltage at the drain of qdrive to 0 v. this places the full 12 v across the fan for the ton period of the pulse. when the duty cycle of the drive pulse is 100% (full on, ton = t), the fan will run at full speed. as the duty cycle is decreased (pulse on time ?ton? is lowered), the fan will slow down proportionally. with the TC654 and tc655 devices, the duty cycle can be controlled through the analog input pin (v in ) or through the smbus interface by using the duty-cycle register. see section 4.5 for more details on duty cycle control. t to n to ff t = period t = 1/f f = frequency d = duty cycle d = ton / t TC654/ tc655 fan 12 v qdrive v dd gnd v out g d s
? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 11 TC654/tc655 4.3 fan startup often overlooked in fan speed control is the actual startup control period. when starting a fan from a non- operating condition (fan speed is zero rpm), the desired pwm duty cycle or average fan voltage can not be applied immediately. since the fan is at a rest posi- tion, the fan?s inertia must be overcome to get it started. the best way to accomplish this is to apply the full rated voltage to the fan for one second. this will ensure that in all operating environments, the fan will start and operate properly. the TC654 and tc655 devices implement this fan con- trol feature without any user programming. during a power up or release from shutdown condition, the TC654 and tc655 devices force the v out output to a 100% duty cycle, turning the fan full on for one second (c f = 1 f). once the one second period is over, the TC654/tc655 devices will look to see if smbus or v in control has been selected in the configuration register (dutyc bit 5<0>). based on this register, the device will choose which input will control the v out duty cycle. duty cycle control based on v in is the default state. if v in control is selected and the v in pin is open (nothing is connected to the v in pin), then the TC654/tc655 will default to a duty cycle of 39.33%. this sequence is shown in figure 4-4. this integrated one second star- tup feature will ensure the fan starts up every time. figure 4-4: power-up flow chart. 4.4 pwm drive frequency (c f ) as previously discussed, the TC654 and tc655 devices operate with a fixed pwm frequency. the fre- quency of the pwm drive output (v out ) is set by a capacitor at the c f pin. with a 1 f capacitor at the c f pin, the typical drive frequency is 30 hz. this frequency can be raised, by decreasing the capacitor value, or lowered, by increasing the capacitor value. the rela- tionship between the capacitor value and the pwm fre- quency is linear. if a frequency of 15 hz is desired, a capacitor value of 2.0 f should be used. the fre- quency should be kept in the range of 15 hz to 35 hz. see section 7.2 for more details. 4.5 duty cycle control (v in and duty- cycle register) the duty cycle of the v out pwm drive signal can be controlled by either the v in analog input pin or by the duty-cycle register, which is accessible via the smbus interface. the control method is selectable via dutyc (bit 5<0>) of the configuration register. the default state is for v in control. if v in control is selected and the v in pin is open, the pwm duty cycle will default to 39.33%. the duty cycle control method can be changed at any time via the smbus interface. v in is an analog input pin. a voltage in the range of 1.62 v to 2.6 v (typical) at this pin commands a 30% to 100% duty cycle on the v out output, respectively. if the voltage at v in falls below the 1.62 v level, the duty cycle will not go below 30%. the relationship between the voltage at v in and the pwm duty cycle is shown in figure 4-5. figure 4-5: pwm duty cycle vs. v in voltage (typical). for the tc655 device, if the voltage at v in exceeds the 2.6 v (typical) level, an over temperature fault indica- tion will be given by asserting a low at the fault output and setting otf (bit 5) in the status register to a ? 1 ?. a thermistor network or any other voltage output ther- mal sensor can be used to provide the voltage to the v in input. the voltage supplied to the v in pin can actu- ally be thought of as a temperature. for example, the circuit shown in figure 4-6 represents a typical solution for a thermistor based temperature sensing network. see section 7.3 for more details. power up or release from shdn one second pulse select smbus no v in open? no yes yes default pwm: 39.33% smbus pwm duty cycle control v in pwm duty cycle control 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 1 1.2 1.4 1.6 1.8 2 2.2 2.4 2.6 2.8 input voltage (v in ) duty cycle (%)
TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 12 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. figure 4-6: ntc thermistor sensor network. the second method for controlling the duty cycle of the pwm output (v out ) is via the smbus interface. in order to control the pwm duty cycle via the smbus, dutyc (bit 5<0>) of the configuration register (register 6.3) must be set to a ? 1 ?. this tells the TC654/tc655 device that the duty cycle should be controlled by the duty cycle register. next, the duty cycle register must be programmed to the desired value. the duty cycle reg- ister is a 4 bit read/write register that allows duty cycles from 30% to 100% to be programmed. table 4-1 shows the binary codes for each possible duty cycle. table 4-1: duty-cycle register (duty-cycle) 4-bits, read/write this method of control allows for more sophisticated algorithms to be implemented by utilizing microcontrol- lers or microprocessors in the system. in this way, mul- tiple system temperatures can be taken into account for determining the necessary fan speed. as shown in table 4-1, the duty cycle has more of a step function look than did the v in control approach. because the step changes in duty cycle are small, they are rarely audibly noticeable, especially when the fans are integrated into the system. 4.6 pwm output (v out ) the v out pin is designed to drive two low cost npn transistors or n-channel mosfets as the low side power switching elements in the system as is shown in figure 4-7. these switching elements are used to turn the fans on and off at the pwm duty cycle commanded by the v out output. this output has complementary drive (pull up and pull down) and is optimized for driving npn transistors or n-channel mosfets (see section 2.0 for sink and source current capability of the v out drive stage). the external device needs to be chosen to fit the volt- age and current rating of the fan in a particular applica- tion (refer to section 7.5 output drive device selection). npn transistors are often a good choice for low current fans. if a npn transistor is chosen, a base current limiting resistor should be used. when using a mosfet as the switching element, it is sometimes a good idea to have a gate resistor to help slow down the turn on and turn off of the mosfet. as with any switch- ing waveform, fast rising and falling edges can sometimes lead to noise problems. as previously stated, the v out output will go to 100% duty cycle during power up and release from shutdown conditions. the v out output only shuts down when commanded to do so via the configuration register (sdm (bit 0<0>)). even when a locked rotor condition is detected, the v out output will continue to pulse at the programmed duty cycle. 4.7 sensing fan operation (sense1 & sense2) the TC654 and tc655 also feature microchip's propri- etary fansense technology. during normal fan opera- tion, commutation occurs as each pole of the fan is energized. the fan current pulses created by the fan commutation are sensed using low value current sense resistors in the ground return leg of the fan circuit. the voltage pulses across the sense resistor are then ac coupled through capacitors to the sense pins of the TC654/tc655 device. these pulses are utilized for cal- culating the rpm of the individual fans. the threshold voltage for the sense pins is 100 mv (typical). the peak of the voltage pulse at the sense pins must exceed the 100 mv (typical) threshold in order for the pulse to be counted in the fan rpm measurement. duty-cycle register (duty cycle) d(3) d(2) d(1) d(0) duty-cycle 000030% 0 0 0 1 34.67% 0 0 1 0 39.33% (default for v in open and when smbus is not selected) 001144% 0 1 0 0 48.67% 0 1 0 1 53.33% 011058% 0 1 1 1 62.67% 1 0 0 0 67.33% 100172% 1 0 1 0 76.67% 1 0 1 1 81.33% 110086% 1 1 0 1 90.67% 1 1 1 0 95.33% 1111100% v in +5 v ntc thermistor r 1 r 2 c 1 0.01 f 100 k ? @ 25c TC654/ tc655 gnd 34.8 k ? 14.7 k ?

(the TC654 also indicates an over temperature condition via the otf bit in the status reg- ister). if the duty cycle then decreases below 100%, the fault output will be released and otf (bit 5) of the status register will be reset to ? 0 ?. 4.9 low power shutdown mode some applications may have operating conditions where fan cooling is not required as a result of low ambient temperature or light system load. during these times it may be desirable to shut the fans down to save power and reduce system noise. the TC654/tc655 devices can be put into a low power shutdown mode by setting sdm (bit 0<0>) in the con- figuration register to a ? 1 ? (this bit is the shutdown bit). when the TC654/tc655 devices are in shutdown mode, all functions except for the smbus interface are suspended. during this mode of operation, the TC654 and tc655 devices will draw a typical supply current of only 5 a. normal operation will resume as soon as bit 0 in the configuration register is reset to ? 0 ?. sense2 sense1 v out fan fan r iso1 r iso2 r sense2 r sense1 c sense2 c sense1 12 TC654/ tc655 gnd
TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 14 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. when the TC654/tc655 devices are brought out of a shutdown mode by resetting sdm (bit 0<0>) in the configuration register, all of the registers (except for the configuration and fan_fault1 & 2 registers) assume their default power up states. the configura- tion register and the fan_fault1 & 2 registers maintain the states they were in prior to the device being put into the shutdown mode. since these are the registers which control the parts operation, the part does not have to be reprogrammed for operation when it comes out of shutdown mode. 4.10 smbus interface (sclk & sda) the TC654/tc655 feature an industry-standard, 2-wire serial interface with factory-set addresses. by commu- nicating with the TC654/tc655 device registers, func- tions like pwm duty cycle, low power shutdown mode and fan rpm threshold can be controlled. critical infor- mation, such as fan fault, over temperature and fan rpm, can also be obtained via the device data regis- ters. the available data and control registers make the TC654/tc655 devices very flexible and easy to use. all of the available registers are detailed in section 6.0. 4.11 smbus slave address the slave address of the TC654/tc655 is 0011 011 and is fixed. this address is different from industry- standard digital temperature sensors (like tcn75) and, therefore, allow the TC654/tc655 to be utilized in sys- tems in conjunction with these components. please contact microchip technology inc. if alternate addresses are required.
? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 15 TC654/tc655 5.0 serial communication 5.1 smbus 2-wire interface the serial clock input (sclk) and the bi-directional data port (sda) form a 2-wire bi-directional serial port for communicating with the TC654/tc655. the follow- ing bus protocols have been defined: ? data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy. ? during data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever the clock line is high. changes in the data line while the clock line is high will be interpreted as a start or stop condition. accordingly, the following serial bus conventions have been defined. table 5-1: TC654/tc655 serial bus conventions 5.1.1 data transfer the TC654/tc655 support a bi-directional 2-wire bus and data transmission protocol. the serial protocol sequencing is illustrated in figure 1-1. data transfers are initiated by a start condition (start), followed by a device address byte and one or more data bytes. the device address byte includes a read/write selection bit. each access must be terminated by a stop condi- tion (stop). a convention call acknowledge (ack) confirms the receipt of each byte. note that sda can only change during periods when sclk is low (sda changes while sclk is high are reserved for start and stop conditions). all bytes are transferred msb (most significant bit) first. 5.1.2 master/slave the device that sends data onto the bus is the transmit- ter and the device receiving data is the receiver. the bus is controlled by a master device which generates the serial clock (sclk), controls the bus access and generates the start and stop conditions. the TC654/tc655 always work as a slave device. both master and slave devices can operate as either trans- mitter or receiver, but the master device determines which mode is activated. 5.1.3 start condition (start) a high to low transition of the sda line while the clock (sclk) is high determines a start condition. all commands must be preceded by a start condition. 5.1.4 address byte immediately following the start condition, the host must transmit the address byte to the TC654/tc655. the 7-bit smbus address for the TC654/tc655 is 0011 011 . the 7-bit address transmitted in the serial bit stream must match for the TC654/tc655 to respond with an acknowledge (indicating the TC654/tc655 is on the bus and ready to accept data). the eighth bit in the address byte is a read-write bit. this bit is a ? 1 ? for a read operation or ? 0 ? for a write operation. during the first phase of any transfer, this bit will be set = 0 to indi- cate that the command byte is being written. 5.1.5 stop condition (stop) a low to high transition of the sda line while the clock (sclk) is high determines a stop condition. all operations must be ended with a stop condition. 5.1.6 data valid the state of the data line represents valid data when, after a start condition, the data line is stable for the duration of the high period of the clock signal. term description transmitter the device sending data to the bus. receiver the device receiving data from the bus. master the device which controls the bus: ini- tiating transfers (start), generating the clock and terminating transfers (stop). slave the device addressed by the master. start a unique condition signaling the beginning of a transfer indicated by sda falling (high to low) while sclk is high. stop a unique condition signaling the end of a transfer indicated by sda rising (low to high) while sclk is high. ack a receiver acknowledges the receipt of each byte with this unique condi- tion. the receiver pulls sda low dur- ing sclk high of the ack clock-pulse. the master provides the clock pulse for the ack cycle. busy communication is not possible because the bus is in use. not busy when the bus is idle, both sda and sclk will remain high. data valid the state of sda must remain stable during the high period of sclk in order for a data bit to be considered valid. sda only changes state while sclk is low during normal data trans- fers. (see start and stop condi- tions)
TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 16 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. the data on the line must be changed during the low period of the clock signal. there is one clock pulse per bit of data. each data transfer is initiated with a start condition and terminated with a stop condition. the number of the data bytes transferred between the start and stop conditions is determined by the master device and is unlimited. 5.1.7 acknowledge (ack) each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to generate an acknowledge bit after the reception of each byte. the master device must generate an extra clock pulse, which is associated with this acknowledge bit. the device that acknowledges has to pull down the sda line during the acknowledge clock pulse in such a way that the sda line is stable low during the high period of the acknowledge related clock pulse. setup and hold times must be taken into account. during reads, a master device must signal an end of data to the slave by not generating an acknowledge bit on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. in this case, the slave (TC654/tc655) will leave the data line high to enable the master device to generate the stop condition. 5.2 smbus protocols the TC654/tc655 devices communicate with three standard smbus protocols. these are the write byte, read byte and receive byte. the receive byte is a short- ened method for reading from, or writing to, a register which had been selected by the previous read or write command. these transmission protocols are shown in figures 5-1, 5-2 and 5-3. figure 5-1: smbus protocol: write byte format. figure 5-2: smbus protocol: read byte format. figure 5-3: smbus protocol: receive byte format. s address wr ack command ack data ack p 7 bits 8 bits 8 bits slave address command byte: selects which register you are writing to. data byte: data goes into the register set by the command byte. s address wr ack command ack 7 bits 8 bits slave address command byte: selects which register you are writing to. s address rd ack data nack p 7 bits 8 bits slave address: repeated due to change in data flow direction. data byte: reads from the register set by the command byte. s address rd ack data nack p 7 bits 8 bits slave address data byte: reads data from the register commanded by the last read byte or write byte transmission s = start condition p = stop condition shaded = slave transmission ack = acknowledge = 0 nack = not acknowledged = 1 wr = write = 0 rd = read = 1

TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 22 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. 7.0 applications information 7.1 connecting to the smbus the smbus is an open collector bus, requiring pull-up resistors connected to the sda and sclk lines. this configuration is shown in figure 7-1. figure 7-1: pull-up resistors on smbus. the number of devices connected to the bus is limited only by the maximum rise and fall times of the sda and sclk lines. unlike i 2 c specifications, smbus does not specify a maximum bus capacitance value. rather, the smbus specification calls out that the max- imum current through the pull-up resistor be 350 a (minimum, 100 a, is also specified). therefore, the value of the pull-up resistors will vary depending on the system?s bias voltage, v dd . minimizing bus capaci- tance is still very important as it directly effects the rise and fall times of the sda and sclk lines. the range for pull-up resistor values for a 5 v system are shown in figure 7-1. although smbus specifications only require the sda and sclk lines to pull down 350 a, with a maximum voltage drop of 0.4 v, the TC654/tc655 has been designed to meet a maximum voltage drop of 0.4 v, with 3 ma of current. this allows lower values of pull- up resistors to be used, which will allow higher bus capacitance. if this is to be done, though, all devices on the bus must be able to meet the same pull down current requirements as well. a possible configuration using multiple devices on the smbus is shown in figure 7-2. figure 7-2: multiple devices on smbus. 7.2 setting the pwm frequency the pwm frequency of the v out output is set by the capacitor value attached to the c f pin. the pwm fre- quency will be 30 hz (typical) for a 1 f capacitor. the relationship between frequency and capacitor value is linear, making alternate frequency selections easy. as stated in previous sections, the pwm frequency should be kept in the range of 15 hz to 35 hz. this will eliminate the possibility of having audible frequencies when varying the duty cycle of the fan drive. a very important factor to consider when selecting the pwm frequency for the TC654/tc655 devices is the rpm rating of the selected fan and the minimum duty cycle that you will be operating at. for fans that have a full speed rating of 3000 rpm or less, it is desirable to use a lower pwm frequency. a lower pwm frequency allows for a longer time period to monitor the fan cur- rent pulses. the goal is to be able to monitor at least two fan current pulses during the on time of the v out output. example: your system design requirement is to oper- ate the fan at 50% duty cycle when ambient tempera- tures are below 20c. the fan full speed rpm rating is 3000 rpm and has four current pulses per rotation. at 50% duty cycle, the fan will be operating at approxi- mately 1500 rpm. equation if one fan revolution occurs in 40 msec, then each fan pulse occurs 10 msec apart. in order to detect two fan current pulses, the on time of the v out pulse must be at least 20 msec. with the duty cycle at 50%, the total period of one cycle must be at least 40 msec, which makes the pwm frequency 25 hz. for this example, a pwm frequency of 20 hz is recommended. this would define a c f capacitor value of 1.5 f. picmicro ? sda sclk v dd r r microcontroller TC654/tc655 range for r: 13.2 k ? to 46 k ? for v dd = 5.0 v sda sclk pic16f876 microcontroller tcn75 temperature sensor 24lc01 eeprom TC654/tc655 fan speed controller time for one revolution (msec.) 60 1000 1500 ----------------------- -40 ==
? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 23 TC654/tc655 7.3 temperature sensor design as discussed in previous sections, the v in analog input has a range of 1.62 v to 2.6 v (typical), which repre- sents a duty cycle range on the v out output of 30% to 100%, respectively. the v in voltages can be thought of as representing temperatures. the 1.62 v level is the low temperature at which the system only requires 30% fan speed for proper cooling. the 2.6 v level is the high temperature, for which the system needs maximum cooling capability. therefore, the fan needs to be at 100% speed. one of the simplest ways of sensing temperature over a given range is to use a thermistor. by using an ntc thermistor as shown in figure 7-3, a temperature vari- ant voltage can be created. figure 7-3: temperature sensing circuit. figure 7-3 represents a temperature dependent volt- age divider circuit. r t is a conventional ntc thermistor, r 1 and r 2 are standard resistors. r 1 and r t form a par- allel resistor combination that will be referred to as r temp (r temp = r 1 * r t / r 1 + r t ). as the temperature increases, the value of r t decreases and the value of r temp will decrease with it. accordingly, the voltage at v in increases as temperature increases, giving the desired relationship for the v in input. the purpose of r 1 is to help linearize the response of the sensing net- work. figure 7-4 shows an example of this. there are many values that can be chosen for the ntc thermistor. there are also thermistors which have a lin- ear resistance instead of logarithmic, which can help to eliminate r 1 . if less current draw from v dd is desired, then a larger value thermistor should be chosen. the voltage at the v in pin can also be generated by a volt- age output temperature sensor device. the key is to get the desired v in voltage to system (or component) temperature relationship. the following equations apply to the circuit in figure 7-3. equation in order to solve for the values of r 1 and r 2 , the values for v in and the temperatures at which they are to occur need to be selected. the variables, t1 and t2, represent the selected temperatures. the value of the thermistor at these two temperatures can be found in the ther- mistor data sheet. with the values for the thermistor and the values for v in , you now have two equations from which the values for r 1 and r 2 can be found. example: the following design goals are desired: ? duty cycle = 50% (v in = 1.9 v) with temperature (t1) = 30c ? duty cycle = 100% (v in = 2.6 v) with tempera- ture (t2) = 60c using a 100 k ? thermistor (25c value), we look up the thermistor values at the desired temperatures: ?r t = 79428 ? @ 30c ?r t = 22593 ? @ 60c substituting these numbers into the given equations, we come up with the following numbers for r 1 and r 2 . ?r 1 = 34.8 k ? ?r 2 = 14.7 k ? figure 7-4: how thermistor resistance, v in , and r temp vary with temperature. figure 7-4 graphs three parameters versus tempera- ture. they are r t , r 1 in parallel with r t , and v in . as described earlier, you can see that the thermistor has a logarithmic resistance variation. when put in parallel with r 1 , though, the combined resistance becomes more linear, which is the desired effect. this gives us the linear looking curve for v in . r 2 r 1 r t i div v in v dd vt1 () v dd r 2 r temp t1 () r 2 + --------------------------------------- - = vt2 () v dd r 2 r temp t2 () r 2 + --------------------------------------- - = 0 20000 40000 60000 80000 100000 120000 140000 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 temperature (oc) network resistance ( ? ) 0.000 0.500 1.000 1.500 2.000 2.500 3.000 3.500 4.000 v in (v) ntc thermistor 100k @ 25oc v in voltage r temp
TC654/tc655 ds21734a-page 24 ? 2002 microchip technology inc. 7.4 fansense network (r sense & c sense ) the network comprised of r sense and c sense allows the TC654/tc655 devices to detect commutation of the fan motor. r sense converts the fan current into a volt- age. c sense ac couples this voltage signal to the sense pins (sense1 & sense2). the goal of the sense network is to provide a voltage pulse to the sense pin that has a minimum amplitude of 120 mv. this will ensure that the current pulse caused by the fan commutation is recognized by the TC654/tc655 device. a 0.1 f ceramic capacitor is recommended for c sense . smaller values will require larger sense resis- tors be used. using a 0.1 f capacitor results in rea- sonable values for r sense . figure 7-5 illustrates a typical sense network. figure 7-5: typical sense network. the value of r sense will change with the current rating of the fan. a key point is that the current rating of the fan specified by the manufacturer may be a worst case rating. the actual current drawn by the fan may be lower than this rating. for the purposes of setting the value for r sense , the operating fan current should be measured. table 7-1 shows values of r sense according to the nominal operating current of the fan. the fan currents are average values. if the fan current falls between two of the values listed, use the higher resistor value. table 7-1: r sense vs. fan current figure 7-6 shows some typical waveforms for the fan current and the voltage at the sense pins. figure 7-6: typical fan current and sense pin waveforms. 7.5 output drive device selection the TC654/tc655 is designed to drive two external npn transistors or two external n-channel mosfets as the fan speed modulating elements. these two arrangements are shown in figure 7-7. for lower cur- rent fans, npn transistors are a very economical choice for the fan drive device. it is recommended that, for higher current fans (500 ma and above), mosfets be used as the fan drive device. table 7-2 provides some possible part numbers for use as the fan drive element. when using an npn transistor as the fan drive ele- ment, a base current limiting resistor must be used. this is shown in figure 7-7. when using mosfets as the fan drive element, it is very easy to turn the mosfets on and off at very high rates. because the gate capacitances of these small fan fan r iso1 r iso2 r sense2 r sense1 c sense2 c sense1 12 sense2 sense1 v out (0.1 f typical) (0.1 f typical) 715 ? 715 ? note: see table 7-1 for r sense1 and r sense2 values. r iso2 nominal fan current (ma) r sense (ohm) 50 9.1 100 4.7 150 3.0 200 2.4 250 2.0 300 1.8 350 1.5 400 1.3 450 1.2 500 1.0
? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 25 TC654/tc655 mosfets are very low, the TC654/tc655 can charge and discharge them very quickly, leading to very fast edges. of key concern is the turn-off edge of the mos- fet. since the fan motor winding is essentially an inductor, once the mosfet is turned off, the current that was flowing through the motor wants to continue to flow. if the fan does not have internal clamp diodes around the windings of the motor, there is no path for this current to flow through, and the voltage at the drain of the mosfet may rise until the drain to source rating of the mosfet is exceeded. this will most likely cause the mosfet to go into avalanche mode. since there is very little energy in this occurrence, it will probably not fail the device, but it would be a long term reliability issue. the following is recommended: ? ask how the fan is designed. if the fan has clamp diodes internally, you will not experience this problem. if the fan does not have internal clamp diodes, it is a good idea to put one externally (figure 7-8). you can also put a resistor between v out and the gate of the mosfet, which will help slow down the turn-off and limit this condition. figure 7-7: output drive device configurations. table 7-2: fan drive device selection table (note 2) device package max vbe sat / vgs(v) min hfe vce/v ds fan current (ma) suggested rbase (ohms) mmbt2222a sot-23 1.2 50 40 150 800 mps2222a to-92 1.2 50 40 150 800 mps6602 to-92 1.2 50 40 500 301 si2302 sot-23 2.5 na 20 500 note 1 mgsf1n02e sot-23 2.5 na 20 500 note 1 si4410 so-8 4.5 na 30 1000 note 1 si2308 sot-23 4.5 na 60 500 note 1 note 1: a series gate resistor may be used in order to control the mosfet turn-on and turn-off times. 2: these drive devices are suggestions only. fan currents listed are for individual fans. q 1 gnd v dd r sense r base v out fan a) single bipolar transistor q 1 gnd v dd r sense v out b) n-channel mosfet fan

? 2002 microchip technology inc. ds21734a-page 27 TC654/tc655 figure 7-10 shows the voltage pulse at the sense pin, which is caused by the fan's "extra" current pulse during pwm output turn-on. figure 7-10: extra pulse at sense pin. this problem occurs mainly with fans that have a cur- rent waveshape like the one shown in figure 7-9. for configurations where an npn transistor is being used as the external drive device, the typical rsense and c sense scheme can continue to be used to sense the fan current pulses. in order to eliminate the extra cur- rent pulse, a slow down capacitor can be placed from the base of the transistor to ground. a 0.1 f capacitor is appropriate in most cases. this arrangement is shown in figure 7-11. this capacitor will help to slow down the turn-on edge of the transistor and reduce the amplitude of the extra current pulse. for configurations using an n-channel mosfet as the drive device, the slow down capacitor does not fix all conditions and the current sensing scheme must be changed. since the current for this type of fan always returns to zero, the coupling capacitor (c sense ) is not needed. instead, it will be replaced by an r-c configu- ration to eliminate the voltage pulse generated by the extra current pulse. this new sensing configuration is shown in figure 7-12. the values of the resistor/capac- itor combination should be adjusted so that the voltage pulse generated by the extra current pulse is smoothed and is not registered by the TC654/tc655 as a true fan current pulse. typical values for r slow and c slow are 1 k ? and 1000 pf, respectively. figure 7-11: transistor drive with c slow capacitor. figure 7-12: fet drive with r slow / c slow sense scheme. sense pin voltage "extra pulse" v out pwm fan fan r iso1 r iso2 c sense 12 (0.1 f typical) sense2 sense1 v out TC654/ tc655 (0.1 f typical) c slow1 (0.1uf gnd typical) (0.1 f typical) r sense2 c sense2 r sense1 c slow2 fan fan r slow2 r slow1 r sense2 r sense1 c slow1 1 2 (1000pf typical) sense2 sense1 v out TC654/ tc655 c slow 2 (1000pf typical) gnd (1 k ? typical) (1 k ? typical)
