Case 2 - Valid RPM << Target RPM < Spin-up Level RPM
In this case, the target speed is smaller than the spin-up level speed (rpm60 or rpm75) and is much
bigger than the valid speed. The theoretical plot of this situation is shown in
bigger than the valid speed. The theoretical plot of this situation is shown in
.
Since the fan speed at the end of spin-up routine is always higher than the minimum valid speed, the
EMC2102 will go to the normal operation after the spin-up routine.
EMC2102 will go to the normal operation after the spin-up routine.
Using the EVB-EMC2102 to test this situation with rpm75 (~5650 rpm), simply set the Valid TACH
register (56h) with 4500 rpm and start the fan with TACH Target (57h) = 5500 rpm (
