1, 15

3, 1

PWM2,

PWM1

Open-Drain Output to Power-Transistor Driving Fan. Connect to the gate of a MOSFET or base of a

bipolar transistor. PWM_ requires a pullup resistor. The pullup resistor can be connected to a supply

voltage as high as 13.5V, regardless of the MAX6639’s supply voltage.

4, 2

TACH2,

TACH1

Tachometer Inputs. Connect to the tachometer output of the fan. TACH_ requires a pullup resistor. The

pullup resistor can be connected to a supply voltage as high as 13.5V, regardless of the MAX6639’s

supply voltage.

GND

Ground. Connect to a clean ground reference.

DXP1,

DXP2

Combined Current Source and A/D Positive Input for Remote Diode. Connect to anode of remote-diode-

connected temperature-sensing transistor. Do not leave floating; connect to DXN if no remote diode is

used. Place a 2200pF capacitor between DXP_ and DXN for noise filtering.
