ADT7476A
dBCOOLR Remote Thermal
Controller and Voltage
Monitor
The ADT7476A dBCOOL controller is a thermal monitor
and multiple PWM fan controller for noise-sensitive or
power-sensitive applications requiring active system cooling. The
ADT7476A can drive a fan using either a low or high frequency drive
signal and can monitor the temperature of up to two remote sensor
diodes plus its own internal temperature. The part also measures and
controls the speed of up to four fans, so the fans operate at the lowest
possible speed for minimum acoustic noise.

The automatic fan speed control loop optimizes fan speed
for a given temperature. The effectiveness of the system’s thermal
solution can be monitored using the THERM input. The ADT7476A
also provides critical thermal protection to the system using the
bidirectional THERM pin as an output to prevent system or
component overheating.
