vide controls for the MAX6620 EV kit software’s config-  
urable features. The Fan Status tab sheet (Figure 1)  
provides controls for the Global Configuration regis-  
ter, TACH Count, Drive Voltage, Targets, and Faults.  
The Fan Configuration/Dynamics tab sheet (Figure 2)  
provides controls for Fan_ Configuration and Fan_  
Dynamics. A status box is also provided at the bottom  
of the program’s main window and is used to verify  
command module and device connectivity.  
Global Configuration  
The Global Configuration group box contains several  
functions that control general operation. The I2C Bus  
Timeout checkbox resets the interface if SDA is low for  
more than 35ms, when enabled. The Fans to 100% on  
Failure checkbox, when checked, drives the fans to  
full-scale drive voltage when a fan failure is detected.  
The External Xtal checkbox toggles between the inter-  
nal oscillator (unchecked) and the 32.ꢁ68 kHz on-board  
crystal (checked).

I2C Watchdog  
The I2C Watchdog Period drop-down list controls the  
period that the watchdog monitors SDA and SCL for  
valid I2C transactions. If there are no valid transactions  
between the master and the MAX6620 within the watch-  
dog period, all fan output voltages go to full-scale drive  
voltage. The I2C Watchdog Status indicator monitors  
whether a watchdog fault has occurred. This bit is  
cleared when read.  
TACH Count and Drive Voltage  
With polling enabled, the TACH Count group box auto-  
matically reads the tachometer count for each corre-  
sponding fan. With polling disabled, press the Read  
buttons next to each fan’s TACH_ Count label.  
With polling enabled, the Drive Voltage group box  
automatically reads the drive voltage for each corre-  
sponding fan. With polling disabled, press the Read  
buttons next to each fan’s drive voltage label. When a  
fan is driven at full-scale voltage, the drive voltage label  
text is displayed the in red font.

RPM/DAC Mode  
Select the appropriate RPM or DAC radio button to set  
the fan to either RPM or DAC mode. In RPM mode, the  
fan drive voltage is adjusted to produce the tachometer  
count value in the Fan_ Target TACH Count register. In  
DAC mode, the fan drive voltage is set by the value in  
the Fan_ Target Drive Voltage register.  
Targets  
In RPM mode, the Target TACH_ Count sets the  
desired tachometer count for each corresponding fan.  
The MAX6620 then adjusts the fan drive voltage to  
achieve this tachometer count. In DAC mode, this fea-  
ture has no effect.  
In DAC mode, write the desired fan drive voltage to the  
Target Drive Voltage_ edit box. The MAX6620 then  
drives the fan with this voltage.  
Spin-up  
The Spin-up drop-down list controls the period of time  
that the fan is driven at full-scale voltage before reduc-  
ing the drive to the selected value. The default is set  
through jumper JU6.  
Faults  
Fan_ Status  
Fan faults are detected through the fan fault register  
and displayed in the Faults group box. When a fault is  
detected, the Fan_ Status label changes from Ok to  
Fault and displays the text in red font. Since these bits  
latch until they are cleared by reading, the option to poll  
bits automatically, or manually read status, is offered by  
toggling the Enable Polling checkbox. Refer to the  
MAX6620 IC data sheet for more information regarding  
types of faults.  
TACH Settings  
The TACH Input Enable checkboxes enable the TACH  
input function and fan-fault detection. When enabled,  
select the appropriate radio button to set the TACH  
input to either TACH Count or Locked Rotor. When  
using locked rotor input, the Polarity can be set at high  
or low.  
Fan_ Dynamics  
The Fan_ Dynamics group box contains controls for  
individual fan speed range and DAC rate-of-change.  
The # of tach cycles counted drop-down list sets the  
number of complete tachometer cycles used for count-  
ing the number of 8192Hz clock cycles. For example,  
by default, this number is set to 4, which means that the  
MAX6620 counts the number of 8192Hz clock cycles in  
four complete tachometer cycles.  
Fan_ Fault Mask  
The Fan_ Fault Mask checkboxes give the option to  
mask faults on selected fans from asserting the  
FAN_FAIL hardware option. When checked, bits do not  
assert the FAN_FAIL output. Faults are still indicated  
through Fan_ Status.  
Fan_ Configuration  
The Fan_ Configuration group boxes (Figure 2) con-  
figure the corresponding fan’s Spin-up conditions,  
TACH Input Enable settings, and set either RPM or  
DAC mode.  
The DAC rate of change drop-down list determines the  
time interval between output voltage increments. Note  
that in RPM mode, a setting of zero would result in an  
unstable feedback loop, so a default of 0.0625 is in  
effect when zero is selected.

Oscillator Selection  
The MAX6620 EV kit gives the option to use the  
MAX6620’s internal oscillator or external on-board  
32.ꢁ68kHz quartz crystal (see Table 1). By default, the  
chip’s internal oscillator is used. For increased accura-  
cy, an external 32.ꢁ68kHz quartz crystal can be  
applied by installing jumper JU1.  
Simple I C/SMBus Commands  
There are two methods for communicating with the  
MAX6620, through the normal user-interface panel  
(Figures 1 and 2), or through the SMBus commands avail-  
able by selecting the Interface Diagnostic Window menu  
item from the Action menu bar. The Maxim Command  
Module Interface window pops up and includes a 2-wire  
interface tab that allows for execution of the  
SMBusSendByte() and SMBusQuick() commands.  
Table 1. Jumper JU1 Functions  
The SMBus dialog boxes accept numeric data in bina-  
ry, decimal, or hexadecimal. Hexadecimal numbers  
should be prefixed by $ or 0x. Binary numbers must be  
exactly eight digits. See Figure 3 for an illustration of  
this tool.

VCC Power Supply  
The MAX6620 gives the option to power VCC through  
the CMAXQUSB module or through an external supply.  
This can be accomplished through setting jumper JU2  
(see Table 2). By default, the MAX6620’s VCC supply is  
powered through the CMAXQUSB module, eliminating  
the need for an external VCC supply.  
DAC Startup Conditions  
The MAX6620 samples the DAC_START input when  
power is first applied and sets the power-up value for  
the fan drive voltage based on jumper JU5 configura-  
tion. By default, the DAC_START pin is connected to  
VCC, setting the initial fan drive voltage to VFAN.

I2C Slave Address Selection  
Initial Spin-Up Behavior  
The MAX6620 is programmable to one of three I2C  
slave addresses through jumper JU3 (see Table 3). The  
address is defined as the ꢁ most significant bits (MSBs)  
followed by the read/write bit.  
The initial spin-up behavior of the MAX6620 is sampled  
at the input of SPIN_START when power is first applied.  
Initial spin-up behavior can be set through jumper JU6  
at power-up (see Table 6 for spin-up configuration). It is  
also possible to modify spin-up behavior by writing  
appropriate settings to the MAX6620’s registers. By  
default, the initial spin-up feature is disabled.
