PWM Duty
Read/Write
These bits define the PWMMIN duty cycle for the PWMx output.
0x00 = 0% duty cycle (fan off)
0x40 = 25% duty cycle
0x80 = 50% duty cycle
0xFF = 100% duty cycle (fan full speed)
These registers become read-only when the ADM1027 is in automatic fan control mode.

These are the TMIN registers for each temperature channel. When the temperature measured exceeds TMIN, the appropriate fan will
run at minimum speed and increase with temperature according to TRANGE
.
These registers become read-only when the Configuration Register 1 lock bit is set. Any further attempts to write to these registers
will have no effect.

If any temperature measured exceeds its THERM limit, all PWM outputs will drive their fans at 100% duty cycle. This is a fail-safe
mechanism incorporated to cool the system in the event of a critical overtemperature. It also ensures some level of cooling in the
event that software or hardware locks up. If set to 0x80, this feature is disabled. The PWM output will remain at 100% until the
temperature drops below THERM limit – 4ꢀC .
These registers become read-only when the Configuration Register 1 lock bit is set to 1. Any further attempts to write to these registers
will have no effect.

Each 4-bit value controls the amount of temperature hysteresis applied to a particular temperature channel. Once the temperature for
that channel falls below its TMIN value, the fan will remain running at PWMMIN duty cycle until the temperature = TMIN – hysteresis.
Up to 15oC of hysteresis may be assigned to any temperature channel. Setting the hysteresis value lower than 4oC will cause the fan
to switch on and off regularly when the temperature is close to TMIN
.
These registers become read-only when the Configuration Register 1 lock bit is set to 1. Any further attempts to write to these registers
will have no effect.
