Command-Byte Functions
The 8-bit Command-Byte Register (Table 2) is the mas-
ter index that points to the various other registers within
MAX6650/MAX6651. The register’s power-on reset
(POR) state is 0000 0000, so that a receive-byte trans-
mission (a protocol that lacks the command byte)
occurring immediately after POR returns the current
speed setting.
Fan-Speed Register
In closed-loop mode, the MAX6650/MAX6651 use the
Fan-Speed Register to set the period of the tachometer
signal that controls the fan speed. The Fan-Speed
Register is ignored in all other modes of operation. The
MAX6650/MAX6651 regulate the fan speed by forcing
the tachometer period (t_TACH) equal to the scaled reg-
ister value. One revolution of the fan generates two
tachometer pulses, so the required Fan-Speed Register
value (K_TACH) may be calculated as:
t_TACH = 1 / (2 x Fan Speed)
K_TACH = [t_TACH x K_SCALE x (f_CLK / 128)] - 1
where the fan speed is in rotations per second (RPS),
t_TACH is the period of the tachometer signal, f_CLK is the
internal oscillator frequency (254kHz ±10%), and
K_SCALE is the prescaler value (see Configuration-Byte
Register). Since the fan speed is inversely proportional
to the tachometer period, the Fan-Speed Register value
(K_TACH) does not linearly control the fan speed (Table
3). Select the prescaler value so the fan’s full speed is
achieved with a register value of approximately 64
(0100 0000) to optimize speed range and resolution.
The MAX6651 may be controlled by an external oscilla-
