Thermal/Mechanical Design Guide

Chapter 5 discussed in detail the reference thermal solution, including the target 

Ψ

CA

, fan speed 

and temperatures to ensure that T

C-MAX

 is not exceeded for TDP power at a given ambient 

temperature. The resulting variable speed fan (VSF) curve is the upper limit on fan speed. 

The benefit of this upper limit will become more apparent when the fan speed controller is 
responding to the on-die thermal diode temperatures.

Minimum Fan Speed Set Point 

The final aspect of thermal solution design is to determine the minimum speed at which the fan 
will be allowed to operate. This value can be driven by the cooling requirements for another 
portion of the design, such as the processor voltage regulator, or by functional limits of the fan 
design. 

Per the 

Fan Specification for 4 wire PWM Controlled Fans, 

there are three possible options to 

consider: 

•

 

Type A: The fan will run at minimum RPM for all PWM duty cycle values less than 
minimum duty cycle. This would be programmed into the fan controller located on the fan 
hub. It can not be overridden by the external fan speed control.  

•

 

Type B: The fan will run at minimum RPM for all non-zero PWM duty cycle values less than 
minimum duty cycle and the fan will turn off at 0% PWM duty cycle.  

•

 

Type C: The fan will stop running when the current provided to the motor windings is 
insufficient to support commutation. The fan would turn off at 0% PWM duty cycle input. 

For the reference thermal solution, Type A was implemented.
