Introduction
ware Monitor chip that supports PC health monitoring.
Seven Onboard Voltage Monitors for the CPU Core, Chipset
Voltage, +3.3V,
±±±±±
5V and
±±±±±
12V
The onboard voltage monitor will scan these seven voltages continuously.
Once a voltage becomes unstable, it will give a warning or send an error
message to the screen. Users can adjust the voltage thresholds to define
the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.
Three-Fan Status Monitor with Firmware/Software On/Off
Control
The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The
onboard 3-pin CPU and chassis fans are controlled by the power manage-
ment functions. The thermal fan is controlled by the overheat detection
logic.
Environmental Temperature Control
The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and
will turn on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds
a user-defined threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from
the CPU. It can continue to monitor for overheat conditions even when the
CPU is in sleep mode. Once it detects that the CPU temperature is too high,
it will automatically turn on the thermal control fan to prevent any overheat
damage to the CPU. The onboard chassis thermal circuitry can monitor the
overall system temperature and alert users when the chassis temperature
is too high.
CPU Fan Auto-Off in Sleep Mode
The CPU fan activates when the power is turned on. It can be turned off
when the CPU is in sleep mode. When in sleep mode, the CPU will not run
at full power, thereby generating less heat.
CPU Overheat LED and Control
This feature is available when the user enables the CPU Overheat Warning
function in the BIOS (see page 4-18). This allows the user to define an
overheat temperature. When this temperature is exceeded, both the over-
heat fan and the warning LED are triggered.
