Preliminary Specification
Product Description
The aSC7611 has a two wire digital interface compatible
with SMBus 2.0. Using a 10-bit
ΣΔ-
ADC, the aSC7611
measures the temperature of two remote diode connected
transistors as well as its own die.
Using temperature information from these three zones, an
automatic fan speed control algorithm is employed to
minimize acoustic impact while achieving recommended
CPU temperature under varying operational loads.
To set fan speed, the aSC7611 has three independent
pulse width modulation (PWM) outputs that are controlled
by one, or a combination of three, temperature zones.
Both high- and low-frequency PWM ranges are supported.
The aSC7611 also includes a digital filter that can be
invoked to smooth temperature readings for better control
of fan speed and minimum acoustic impact. The aSC7611
has tachometer inputs to measure fan speed on up to four
fans. Limit and status registers for all measured values are
included to alert the system host that any measurements
are outside of programmed limits via status registers.
System voltages of VCCP, 2.5V, 3.3V, 5.0V, and 12V
motherboard power are monitored efficiently with internal
scaling resistors.

1. Absolute maximum ratings are limits beyond which
operation may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only; functional operation at or
above these limits is not implied.
2. When the input voltage (V
IN
) at any pin exceeds the
power supplies (V
IN
< GND or V
IN
> V
DD
), the current at
that pin should be limited to 5mA. The 20mA maximum
package input current rating limits the number of pins
that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input
current of 5mA to four. Parasitic components and/or
ESD protection circuitry are present on the aSC7611
pins. Care should be taken not to forward bias the
parasitic diode present on pins D+ and D-. Doing so by
more than 50mV may corrupt temperature
measurements.
3. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient when attached to
a double-sided printed circuit board with 1oz. foil is

C/W
4. Human Body Model: 100pF capacitor discharged
through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin. Machine Model:
200pF capacitor discharged directly into each pin.
Charged-Device Model is per JESD22-C101C.
