LM96000
Hardware Monitor with Integrated Fan Control
General Description
The LM96000, hardware monitor, has a two wire digital
interface compatible with SMBus 2.0. Using an 8-bit
ADC, the LM96000 measures:
the temperature of two remote diode connected transis-
tors as well as its own die
the VCCP, 2.5V, 3.3VSBY, 5.0V, and 12V supplies (in-
ternal scaling resistors).
To set fan speed, the LM96000 has three PWM outputs that
are each controlled by one of three temperature zones. High
and low PWM frequency ranges are supported. The
LM96000 includes a digital filter that can be invoked to
smooth temperature readings for better control of fan speed.
The LM96000 has four tachometer inputs to measure fan
speed. Limit and status registers for all measured values are
included.

POWER
+3.3V pin. Can be powered by +3.3V Standby power if monitoring
in low power states is required. This pin also serves as the analog
input to monitor the 3.3V supply. This pin should be bypassed
with a 0.1f capacitor in parallel with 100pf. A bulk capacitance of
approximately 10f needs to be in the near vicinity of the
LM96000.
