ADM1031
Intelligent Temperature
Monitor and Dual PWM Fan
Controller
The ADM1031 is an ACPI−compliant, three−channel digital
thermometer and under/overtemperature alarm for use in personal
computers and thermal management systems. Optimized for the
PentiumRIII, the part offers a 1°C higher accuracy, which allows
system designers to safely reduce temperature guard−banding and
increase system performance.

Two PWM fan control outputs control the speed of two cooling fans
by varying output duty cycle. Duty cycle values between 33% and
100% allow smooth control of the fans. The speed of each fan can be
monitored via TACH inputs, which can be reprogrammed as analog
inputs to allow speeds for 2−wire fans to be measured via sense
resistors. The device also detects a stalled fan. A dedicated fan speed
control loop provides control without the intervention of CPU
software. It also ensures that if the CPU or system locks up, each fan
can still be controlled based on temperature measurements, and the fan
speed is adjusted to correct any changes in system temperature. Fan
speed can also be controlled using existing ACPI software.

Two inputs (4 pins) are dedicated to remote temperature−sensing
diodes with an accuracy of 1°C, and an on−chip temperature sensor
allows ambient temperature to be monitored. The device has a
programmable INT output to indicate error conditions, and a dedicated
FAN_FAULT output to signal fan failure. The THERM pin is a
fail−safe output for overtemperature conditions that can be used to
throttle a CPU clock.
