Figure 48. Hardware Configuration Example
Recommended Implementation 1
Configuring the ADT7476 as shown in Figure 49 provides the
system designer with the following features:
•
Six VID inputs (VID0 to VID5) for VRM10 support.
•
Two PWM outputs for fan control of up to three fans. The
front and rear chassis fans are connected in parallel.
•
Three TACH fan speed measurement inputs.
•
V
CC
measured internally through Pin 4.
•
CPU core voltage measurement (V
CORE
).
•
2.5 V measurement input used to monitor CPU current
(connected to V
COMP
output of an ADP316x VRM controller).
This is used to determine CPU power consumption.
•
5 V measurement input.
•
VRM temperature using local temperature sensor.
•
CPU temperature measured using the Remote 1
temperature channel.
•
Ambient temperature measured through the Remote 2
temperature channel.
•
If not using VID5, it can be reconfigured as the 12 V
monitoring input.
•
Bidirectional THERM pin allows the monitoring of
PROCHOT output from an Intel Pentium 4 processor, for
example, or can be used as an overtemperature THERM
output.
•
SMBALERT system interrupt output.
