are slight differences between the Small Form Factor (Figure 4-11) and the desktop and

eration is the same.


An ASIC monitors a thermal diode internal to the processor and provides a Fan CMD signal that

e Speed Control logic uses to vary the speed of the fan(s) through the negative terminal of the
n(s). The turning off of the fan(s) as the result from the

g placed

ondition is initiated by the control ASIC asserting the Fan Off- signal, which results in the

n/Off Control logic shutting off the +12 volts to the fan(s).

he main differences between the system types are as follow

Desktop onfigurable Minitower systems use an integrated heat sink/fan assembly, with all

fans speed-controlled by the ASIC through the power supply so that a thermal condition of
