NCT7491 Remote Thermal Monitor and Fan Controller with PECI 3.0 Interface and SMBus Compatible Master www.onsemi.com The NCT7491 is a twowire serially programmable hardware monitor. It can monitor 2 remote temperature zones and its own ambient temperature. A PECI 3.0 single wire interface allows the NCT7491 to monitor CPU temperatures. The NCT7491 also implements an SMBus compatible master, allowing it to read automatically from thermal sensors on the SMBus. The NCT7491 can automatically control the speed of 3 fans using PWM control, and QFN24 QSOP24 MN SUFFIX RQ SUFFIX monitor the speed of 4 fans. There are 4 analog inputs, used for CASE 485L CASE 492B measuring 12 V, 5 V, 2.5 V and Vccp channels. The NCT7491 supply voltage and PECI V voltage are also monitored. Each of the TT measured temperature, voltage and fan speed values are compared MARKING DIAGRAMS with programmable limits and if any channel is outside the programmed limit an interrupt is generated via the ALERT output pin. NCT 7491 A THERM output is also available for failsafe thermal control. Up to ALYW 3 GPIO pins are available for digital control or signalling. Communication with the NCT7491 is accomplished via the (Top View) 2 SMBus/I C interface which is compatible with industry standard protocols. The SMBus address is set by 2 address selection pins. A = Assembly Location L = Wafer Lot The NCT7491 is available in a 24lead QFN or QSOP package and Y = Year operates over a supply range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V.
