PRODUCT FEATURES
EMC2101
SMBus Fan Control
with 1°C Accurate
Temperature Monitoring
General Description
The EMC2101 is an SMBus 2.0 compliant, integrated
fan control solution complete with two temperature
monitors, one external and one internal. Each
temperature channel has programmable high limits that
can assert an interrupt.
The fan drive is selectable as a Pulse Width Modulator
(PWM) or Linear (DAC) output. The fan control output,
whether the PWM or DAC drive circuit, uses an eight
position look-up table to allow the user to program the
fan speed profile based on temperature. The DAC out-
put ranges from 0V to VDD with up to 6 bit resolution
while the PWM output has a range of 0% to 100% with
up to 64 steps.
The EMC2101 has an option to automatically upload the
contents of an attached SMBus compatible EEPROM for
auto-programming upon power up.
Advanced thermal sensing enables reduced validation
and characterization time as well as accurately operat-
ing with smaller-geometry processors. Resistance Error
Correction (REC) automatically corrects the offset errors
of board trace and device resistance, up to 100Ω. Auto-
matic Beta Compensation allows the user the flexibility
to design applications that include processor substrate
transistors.

3.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Note: Stresses above those listed could cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only and functional operation of the device at any other condition above those indicated
in the operation sections of this specification is not implied. When powering this device from
laboratory or system power supplies, it is important that the Absolute Maximum Ratings not be
exceeded or device failure can result. Some power supplies exhibit voltage spikes on their
outputs when the AC power is switched on or off. In addition, voltage transients on the AC
power line may appear on the DC output. If this possibility exists, it is suggested that a clamp
circuit be used.
Note 3.1 For the 5V tolerant pins that have a pull-up resistor, the pull-up voltage must not exceed
3.6V when the EMC2101 is unpowered.

Chapter 4 System Management Bus Interface Protocol
4.1 System Management Bus Interface Protocol
The EMC2101 communicates with a host controller, such as an SMSC SIO, through the SMBus. The
SMBus is a two-wire serial communication protocol between a computer host and its peripheral
devices. A detailed timing diagram is shown in Figure 4.1. Stretching of the SMCLK signal is supported,
however the EMC2101 will not stretch the clock signal.
The EMC2101 powers up as an SMBus client (after loading from EEPROM as applicable).
The EMC2101 is SMBus 2.0 compatible and supports Send Byte, Read Byte, Receive Byte and the
Alert Response Address as valid protocols as shown below.
All of the below protocols use the convention in Table 4 . 1 .
4.2 Write Byte
The Write Byte is used to write one byte of data to the registers as shown below Table 4.2.

DATASHEET
4.3 Read Byte
The Read Byte protocol is used to read one byte of data from the registers as shown in Table 4.3.
4.4 Send Byte
The Send Byte protocol is used to set the internal address register pointer to the correct address
location. No data is transferred during the Send Byte protocol as shown in Tab l e 4 . 4.
4.5 Receive Byte
The Receive Byte protocol is used to read data from a register when the internal register address
pointer is known to be at the right location (e.g. set via Send Byte). This is used for consecutive reads
of the same register as shown in Tabl e 4 . 5 .
4.6 Alert Response Address
The ALERT / TACH output can be used as a processor interrupt or as an SMBus Alert when configured
to operate as an interrupt.
When it detects that the ALERT / TACH pin is asserted, the host will send the Alert Response Address
(ARA) to the general address of 000_1100b. All devices with active interrupts will respond with their
client address as shown in Table 4.6.

SMSC EMC2101 17 Revision 2.54 (06-16-09)
DATASHEET
The EMC2101 will respond to the ARA in the following way when the ALERT / TACH pin is configured
as an Interrupt:
1. Send Slave Address and verify that full slave address was sent (i.e. the SMBus communication
from the device was not prematurely stopped due to a bus contention event).
2. Set the MASK bit to clear the ALERT / TACH pin only if there are no bits set in the Status Register.
If there are error condition bits set in the Status Register, it must be read before the MASK bit will
be set.
When the ALERT / TACH pin is configured to operate in Comparator Mode, or as a TACH input, (see
Section 5.4.1), it will not respond to the ARA command. Additionally, the EMC2101 will not respond to
the ARA command if the ALERT / TACH pin is not asserted.
4.7 SMBus Address
The EMC2101 is addressed on the SMBus as 100_1100b.
Attempting to communicate with the EMC2101 SMBus interface with an invalid slave address or invalid
protocol will result in no response from the device and will not affect its register contents.
4.8 SMBus Time-out
The EMC2101 includes an SMBus time-out feature. Following a 25ms period of inactivity on the
SMBus, the device will time-out and reset the SMBus interface.
4.9 Programming from EEPROM
The EMC2101-R acts as a simple SMBus Master to read data from a connected EEPROM using the
following procedure:
1. After power-up the EMC2101-R waits for 10ms with the SMDATA and SMCLK pins tri-stated.
2. Once the wait period has elapsed, the EMC2101-R sends a START signal followed by the 7 bit
client address 101_0000b followed by a ‘1b’ and waits for an ACK signal from the EEPROM.
3. When the EEPROM sends the ACK signal, the EMC2101-R will send a second start signal and
continue sending the Block Read Command (see Ta b l e 4 . 7 ) to the same slave address. It reads
256 data bytes from the EEPROM sending an ACK between each data byte. When 256 data bytes
have been received, it sends a NACK signal followed by a STOP bit.
4. Resets the device as an SMBus Client.
If the EMC2101-R does not receive an acknowledge bit from the EEPROM then the following will
occur:
1. The ALERT / TACH pin will be asserted and will remain asserted until a Host device initiates
communication with the EMC2101 and reads the Status Register at offset 0x02. The ALERT /
TACH pin will be de-asserted after a single Status Register read, i.e. it is not sticky.
2. The EMC2101-R will reset its SMBus protocol as a slave interface and start operating from the
default conditions.

Revision 2.54 (06-16-09) 18 SMSC EMC2101
DATASHEET
Note: The shaded columns represent data sent from the EMC2101 to the EEPROM device.
APPLICATION NOTE: It is recommended that the EEPROM that is used be an AT24C02B or equivalent device.
The EEPROM slave address must be 101_0000b. The device must support a block-read
command, 8-bit addressing, and 8-bit data formatting using a 2-wire bus. The device must
support 3.3V digital switching logic and may not pull the SMCLK and SMDATA pins above
5V. Data must be transmitted MSB first.
APPLICATION NOTE: No other SMBus Master should exist on the SMDATA and SMCLK lines. The presence of
another SMBus Master will cause errors in reading from the EEPROM.
The EEPROM should be loaded to mirror the register set of the EMC2101 with the desired
configuration set. All undefined registers in the EMC2101 register set should be loaded with 00h in the
EEPROM. Likewise, all registers that are read-only in the EMC2101 register set should be loaded with
00h in the EEPROM.
Because of the interaction between the Fan Control Look-up Table and the Fan Configuration Register,
the EEPROM Loader stores the contents of the Fan Configuration Register and updates this register
at the end of the EEPROM loading cycle. (See Section 6.16 and Section 6.22).

Chapter 5 General Description
The EMC2101 is an environmental monitoring device with a selectable PWM or DAC fan driver output,
one external temperature monitoring channel and one internal temperature monitor. It contains
advanced circuitry to remove errors induced by series resistance and CPU thermal diode process
differences to provide accurate temperature measurements and accurate fan control.
Thermal management is performed automatically. The EMC2101 reads the temperature from both the
external and internal temperature diodes and uses the external temperature data to control the fan
speed.
The FAN output can be configured as a PWM (default) or DAC output. The PWM fan driver uses an
eight entry look up table to create a programmable temperature response. The DAC output provides
a linear drive for the system fan circuit using this same look up table.
Each temperature measurement channel is continuously compared against programmed high limits.
The external diode channel is compared against a programmed low limit. ALERT / TACH interrupt pin
is asserted if the measured value exceeds the high limit or drops below the low limit. In addition, the
external diode contains a programmable critical temperature, TCRIT. If the measured temperature
exceeds this TCRIT an interrupt is asserted on the ALERT / TACH pin and the fan is set to full on.
Finally, the EMC2101-R (only) has two configuration modes and two default fan settings based on the
value of the pull-up-resistor on the ALERT / TACH pin. In the Manual Configuration Mode, the device
acts as an SMBus client and waits to be configured by the system SMBus host. In the Automatic
Configuration mode, the device automatically queries the SMBus for an EEPROM device and uploads
configuration information from the EEPROM into its internal registers.
Figure 5.1 shows a system level block diagram of the EMC2101. Figure 5.2 shows a system level block
diagram of the EMC2101-R.

5.1 Modes of Operation (EMC2101-R Only)
The EMC2101-R has two modes of operation based on the pull-up resistor on the ALERT pin (see
Table 5.1). The modes of operation are:
1. Host Configuration Mode - An SMBus Host configures the EMC2101-R upon startup to allow for
polling for temperature or fan information or the user can use the ALERT pin interrupt to determine
which action is required.
2. Automatic Configuration Mode - The EMC2101-R queries an SMBus compatible EEPROM located
at a known address (see Section 4.9) and automatically loads its registers with the contents of the
EEPROM. This mode does not require host intervention but a host can poll the device for
temperature and fan information.
5.2 Power Up (EMC2101-R Only)
The EMC2101-R (only) will power up with the fan driver set to either 100% duty cycle or 0% duty cycle,
depending on the value of the pull-up resistor on the ALERT / TACH pin. (See Ta b l e 5 . 1 .) It will remain
in this state until either the Fan Setting Register is written or until the following activities have occurred:
1. The Fan Control Look-Up Table is loaded and the PROG bit is set to ‘0’
2. The temperature monitoring block performs its first comparison against the Look-Up Table.
If the Fan Control Look-Up Table is used, the EMC2101-R Fan Driver will be immediately set to the
appropriate setting in the table based on the measured temperature.
5.3 Power Modes
The EMC2101 supports multiple power modes that are user configurable. The temperature monitoring
and fan control functions of the device are independent. The power modes are:
1. Normal - the temperature monitoring and fan driver circuits are both active. The device updates all
temperature channels at the user programmed conversion rate (see Ta b l e 6 . 6 ). Every time the
temperature is updated, the limits are checked and the fan driver is updated based on the values
in the Fan Control Look-Up Table (if the Fan Control Look-Up Table is enabled).
2. Standby - the temperature monitoring and fan driver circuits are both disabled. The device will not
update temperature data automatically and the fan output will be set to default drive. A one-shot

command can be issued that will refresh the temperature data. The limits are only checked when
the temperature data is updated.
3. Mixed - the temperature monitoring block is disabled, but the fan driver block is active. The device
will not update temperature data automatically and the fan driver output will not be updated
automatically based on temperature. A one-shot command can be issued that will refresh the
temperature data and update the fan driver based on the values in the Fan Control Look-Up Table
(if the Fan Control Look-Up Table is enabled).
5.4 ALERT / TACH Output
The ALERT / TACH pin (Pin 6) is an open drain output and requires a pull-up resistor to VDD when
configured as an ALERT output.
APPLICATION NOTE: When configured as a TACH input, the ALERT / TACH pin will not function as an ALERT
output. Error conditions will not trigger an interrupt (though will be updated in the Status
Registers as normal) and the MASK bits will do nothing. Likewise, the device will not respond
to the ARA command.
For the EMC2101-R, the value of this pull-up resistor determines the initial FAN output mode of
operation as well as whether the device auto loads from an EEPROM or via an SMBus host per
Table 5.1.
After power-up, the EMC2101-R requires 10ms to initialize and determine the operating mode.
When configured as an interrupt, the ALERT / TACH pin is maskable for each alert condition. If the
ALERT / TACH pin is masked, then it will not respond to the corresponding condition (though the Alert
Status Register will update normally). This pin has multiple functions described below and is controlled
by ALERT_COMP bit (bit 0) in the Averaging Filter Register (BFh) (see Section 6.23).
5.4.1 ALERT / TACH as a Temperature Comparator
When the ALERT / TACH pin is used as a temperature comparator, the ALERT / TACH output is
asserted when an out of limit measurement (> high limit, < low limit, or > TCRIT limit) is detected on
any diode (low limits only apply to the external diode channel) or when the external diode connections
are open. When the condition is no longer true, the ALERT / TACH output will de-assert. Reading from
the Status Register will cause the ALERT / TACH pin to be released however it will not prevent it from
being re-asserted based on the temperature comparisons.
Setting the MASK bit will not affect the ALERT / TACH pin when it is configured as a temperature
comparator, however the individual channel mask bits will block the ALERT / TACH pin from being
asserted.

5.4.2 ALERT / TACH as an Interrupt
When the ALERT / TACH pin is used as an interrupt signal the pin is asserted whenever an out-of-
limit condition is detected. The ALERT / TACH pin will remain asserted until it is cleared even if the
error condition is removed.
5.4.3 Mask Bit
The MASK bit behaves differently depending on which mode the ALERT / TACH pin is configured to
operate in.
If the EMC2101 is configured with the ALERT / TACH pin operating in Interrupt Mode, the MASK bit
will be set in the following cases:
1. Automatically after the Status Register has been read if any bits in the Status Register have been
set (except BUSY and FAULT) (See Ta b l e 6 . 3 ).
2. Automatically when the EMC2101 responds to an Alert Response Address (ARA) command on an
SMBus and the ALERT / TACH pin is asserted. The ARA command does not clear the Status
Register. If the MASK bit is cleared prior to reading and clearing the Status Register, then the
ALERT / TACH pin will be asserted.
3. Directly via the SMBus.
In Interrupt Mode, the MASK bit will block the ALERT / TACH pin from being asserted in response to
an error condition.
If the EMC2101 is configured with the ALERT / TACH pin operating in Comparator Mode, the MASK
bit can only be set via the SMBus. In this mode, setting the MASK bit willl not affect the ALERT / TACH
pin.
In either mode, setting the individual channel mask bits will block the appropriate channel from
asserting the ALERT / TACH pin.
5.5 Temperature Monitors
In general, thermal diode temperature measurements are based on the change in forward bias voltage
of a diode when operated at two different currents. The change in forward bias voltage is proportional
to absolute temperature (T).

5.5.3 Beta Compensation
The EMC2101 is software configurable to monitor the temperature of basic diodes (e.g. 2N3904), or
CPU thermal diodes. It automatically detects the type of external diode (CPU diode, diode connected
transistor, or PN diode) and determines the optimal setting to reduce temperature errors introduced by
beta variation.
5.5.4 Resistance Error Correction (REC)
Parasitic resistance in series with the external diode limits the accuracy obtainable from temperature
measurement devices. The voltage developed across this resistance by the switching diode currents
cause the temperature measurement to read higher than the true temperature. Contributors to series
resistance are PCB trace resistance, on die (i.e. on the processor) metal resistance, bulk resistance
in the base and emitter of the temperature transistor. Typically, the error caused by series resistance
is +0.7°C per ohm. Temperature errors caused by up to 100Ω of series resistance are automatically
corrected.
5.5.5 Programmable Ideality Factor
The EMC2101 is designed for an external diode with an ideality factor of 1.008. When an external
diode, processor or discrete, has a different ideality factor, an error is introduced in the temperature
measurement which must be corrected. This is typically done using programmable offset registers but
this correction is only accurate at one temperature since an ideality factor mismatch introduces an error
that is a linear function of temperature. To provide maximum flexibility to the user, the EMC2101
provides a 6-bit register to set the ideality factor for the external diode which eliminates errors across
all temperatures. (See Ta b l e 6 . 1 3 .)
APPLICATION NOTE: This feature is only required in rare circumstances. The majority of errors introduced are
corrected with the Beta Compensation and Resistance Error Correction circuitry.
5.5.6 Diode Faults
The EMC2101 detects the major types of diode faults; an open input DP-DN, a short across DP-DN,
short to GND, and short to VDD. For each temperature measurement made, the device checks for a
diode fault on the external diode.
If an open fault or a short of the DP pin to VDD is detected, then the temperature data is changed to
+127C and the Fault bit in the Status Register will bet set. If the high and / or TCRIT limits are set
below this value, and they are not masked, then the ALERT / TACH pin will be asserted. In addition,
the HIGH and TCRIT status bits will be set accordingly.
If a short between the diode pins or a short to GND is detected, then the temperature data is changed
to +127.875°C. If the high and / or TCRIT limits are set below this value, and they are not masked,
then the ALERT / TACH pin will be asserted. In addition, the HIGH and TCRIT status bits will be set
accordingly. The FAULT bit will not be set.
APPLICATION NOTE: If the Temperature Filter is enabled and a diode fault occurs, the diode fault status bit will be
set and the temperature data is updated immediately. The Filter will stop accumulating data
so long as the diode fault remains in effect.
APPLICATION NOTE: When a Diode Fault is detected, the ALERT / TACH pin behavior is still subject to the Fault
Queue.

DATASHEET
5.6 Fan Control
The EMC2101 includes either a PWM or a linear DAC based fan driver on the shared FAN pin. Both
PWM and DAC use the Fan Control Look-Up Table and/or Fan Setting Register interchangeably as
well as the Spin-Up Routine.
In addition, the EMC2101 can monitor the fan speed using the ALERT / TACH pin.
5.6.1 DAC Driver
The Linear DAC driver included in the EMC2101 has 6-bits of resolution based on the supply voltage
and is used for linear drive fan circuits. Its advantages over PWM drive circuits include reduced circuit
complexity at the expense of reduced effective signal range.
APPLICATION NOTE: When using the DAC Driver, the pull-up resistor on the FAN pin should be removed.
APPLICATION NOTE: The DAC driver output voltage is controlled by either the Fan Setting Register (see
Section 6.18) or the Fan Control Look-Up Table Registers (see Section 6.22). It is also
controlled by the POLARITY bit (see Section 6.16). The PWM Frequency Register (see
Section 6.19) and PWM Divider Register (see Section 6.20) have no effect on the DAC’s
output voltage range, resolution, or response.
5.6.2 PWM Driver
The PWM driver included in the EMC2101 has, at most, 64 steps equalling 1.5% resolution. The
effective resolution, duty cycle, and frequency are all adjustable based on programmed values. It’s
advantages over linear drive circuits include a large signal range (0% to 100% duty cycle) at the
expense of added complexity on the drive circuit.
The PWM output is open drain and requires a pull-up resistor to VDD.
5.6.3 TACH Monitor
The TACH monitor counts the number of clock pulses that occur between five edges of the TACH
signal. The monitor assumes that the tachometer signal is always valid (such as generated from a 4-
wire fan or a direct drive fan) and that the tachometer signal generates 2 TACH pulses per fan
revolution.
5.6.4 Fan Control Look-Up Table
The EMC2101 uses an 8 entry look-up table to apply a user-programmable fan control profile based
on measured temperature. The user programs the Fan Control Look-Up Table using incrementally
higher temperatures and the desired fan output that should be set when that temperature is reached.
If the measured temperature on the External Diode channel exceeds any of these temperature
thresholds, the fan output will be automatically programmed to the desired setting corresponding to the
exceeded temperature. When the measured temperature drops to a point below any lower threshold
minus the hysteresis value, the fan output will be set to the corresponding lower set point.
Figure 5.7 shows an example of this operation.

5.7 Fault Queue
The EMC2101 supports a Fault Queue feature to reduce interrupts caused by spurious temperature
readings. This feature, (see Section 6.5), will not trigger an interrupt until the device has measured
three consecutive out-of-limit HIGH, LOW, or T_CRIT temperature readings. Figure 5.8 shows an
example of this behavior. The Fault Queue only applies to the External Diode channels.

6.3 Temperature Data Registers
As shown in Table 6.2, the internal temperature monitor is stored as an 8-bit value while the external
temperature is stored as an 11-bit value.
Please note that the internal temperature monitor is limited to the operating temperature limits of the
part resulting in a guaranteed range of 0ºC to 85ºC.
6.4 Status Register
The Status Register is a read only register and returns the operational status of the part.
If the ALERT / TACH pin is configured as an ALERT output and any of these bits are set to '1' (except
the BUSY bit and the FAULT bit), then the ALERT / TACH pin is asserted low (if interrupts are not
masked (see Section 6.5).
Reading from the Status Register will cause the MASK bit to be set if any bit (other than BUSY and
FAULT) have been set. Each bit is automatically cleared when the error condition has been removed,
however the internal error condition flags may still be set. The ARA command must be used to clear
the ALERT / TACH pin if there are no bits set in the Status Register. In addition, reading from the
Status Register will clear all bits. If the error condition persists, then the bits will be reset at the end of
the next conversion.
When the device is configured in Comparison Mode (see Section 6.23), reading the Status Register
will not clear any active status bits (except EEPROM and FAULT). These bits are automatically cleared
when the error condition is removed.
Bit 7 - Busy - indicates that the ADC is converting - does not trigger an interrupt.
Bit 6 - INT_HIGH - Internal temperature has met or exceeded the high limit.
Bit 5 - EEPROM - Indicates that the EEPROM could not be found when the device powers up in the
Auto-Program Mode (see Section 5.1). This bit only applies to the EMC2102-R. It will always read ‘0’
for the EMC2101 device.
Bit 4 - EXT_HIGH - External Diode temperature has exceeded the high limit.

6.5 Configuration Register
The configuration register controls the basic functionality of the EMC2101. The bits are described
below:
Bit 7 - MASK - Masks the ALERT / TACH pin functionality when the device is configured as an ALERT
output in Interrupt Mode. This bit is ignored if the ALERT / TACH pin is configured as an ALERT output
in Comparator Mode or if it is configured as a TACH input.
The internal error condition flags are not affected by setting the MASK bit. Therefore, if the MASK bit
is set manually (instead of by reading the Status Register or sending the ARA command), and it is
cleared, the ALERT / TACH pin may be reasserted without any apparent error conditions present. It is
not recommended that the MASK bit be manually set to clear the ALERT / TACH pin.
'0' (default) - The ALERT / TACH pin will be asserted if any bit is set in the Status Register. Once
the pin is asserted, it will remain asserted.
'1' - the ALERT / TACH pin will be masked and will not generate an interrupt. The Status Register
will still be updated normally.
Bit 6- STANDBY - Determines operational mode of the device.
'0' (default) - Operational mode, monitoring temperatures, updating FAN output
'1' - Low power standby mode. In this mode, the Temperature monitor is disabled and the Fan
drivers may be disabled depending on the status of the FAN_STANDBY bit.
Bit 5 - FAN_STANDBY - Determines the operation of the FAN driver when the device is put into low
power standby mode.
'0' (default) - FAN output will remain active when the STANDBY bit is set.
‘1’ - FAN output will be inactive when the STANBDY bit is set. The driver will be set at the default
drive based on the pull-up resistors on the ALERT / TACH pin (see Ta b l e 5 . 1 ).
Bit 4 - DAC - Determines FAN output mode
'0' (default) - PWM output enabled at FAN pin.
'1' - DAC output enabled at FAN pin.
Bit 3 - DIS_TO - disables the SMBus Time-out functionality.
‘0’ (default) - the SMBus Time-out functionality is enabled and will reset the client block if the clock
is held in a single state for more than 25ms and less than 35ms.
‘1’ - the SMBus Time-out functionality is disabled. The client block will only reset if it receives a
STOP bit.
Bit 2 - ALT_TCH - Determines the functionality of the ALERT / TACH pin.

‘0’ (default) - The ALERT / TACH pin will function as an open drain, active low interrupt.
‘1’ - The ALERT / TACH pin will function as a high impedance TACH input. This may require an
external pull-up resistor to set the proper signaling levels.
Bit 1 - TCRITOVRD - Allows the TCRIT limit to be overridden.
'0' (default) - TCRIT limit is set to default value and locked.
'1' - The TCRIT limit is unlocked for modification. The TCRIT limit can only be changed once. To
adjust TCRIT again, a power cycle is required.
Bit 0 - QUEUE - Sets the number of external diode over-temp measurements required to assert ALERT
/ TACH pin.
'0' (default) - ALERT / TACH pin is asserted (and status bit set) after one external temperature
measurement exceeds the high limit or the TCRIT limit or drops below the low limit.
'1' - ALERT / TACH pin is asserted (and status bit set) after three consecutive external temperature
measurements exceed the high limit or the TCRIT limit or drop below the low limit.

6.7 Temperature Limit Registers
The EMC2101 has two 8-bit limit registers, two 11-bit limit registers, and one hysteresis register. The
limits are checked after every temperature conversion.
If the measured temperature for the internal diode exceeds the Internal Temperature limit, then the
INT_HIGH bit is set in the Status Register. It will remain set until the internal temperature drops below
the high limit.
If the measured temperature for the External Diode exceeds the 11-bit External Diode High Limit, or
drops below the 11-bit External Diode Low Limit, then the appropriate status bit will be set. The status
bit will remain set until the temperature is no longer violating the respective limits.
If the External Diode exceeds the TCRIT Temp Limit (even if it does not exceed the External Diode
Temperature Limit), the TCRIT bit will be set in the Status Register.
The TCRIT bit will remain set in the Status Register until the External Diode Temperature drops below
a lower threshold given by equation [2].
See Section 6.3 and Section 6.5 for ALERT / TACH pin functionality.

DATASHEET
The External Diode Force Register is used to force the Fan Control Look-Up Table to a specific fan-
speed setting. When this function is enabled (see Section 6.16), the contents of this register are
compared against the temperature thresholds in the Fan Control Look-Up Table to determine the fan
setting to use.
The contents of this register represent temperature data in the same format as the data registers and
can be updated at any time.
The External Diode Temperature Registers are updated normally with the measured temperature and
compared against the THIGH and TCRIT limits normally but not used to determine the fan speed.
APPLICATION NOTE: This mode is used if the host or system requires temperature data from a source other than
the EMC2101 External Diode to be used for fan control.
6.9 One Shot Register
The One Shot Register initiates an update of the temperature measurements. This register can be
written at any time, however will only perform a one-shot conversion when the temperature monitoring
is in standby mode. When the one shot temperature conversion is complete the temperature data
registers are updated and the fan setting is updated if necessary. This register is self-clearing.
6.10 Scratchpad Registers
The Scratchpad Registers are R/W registers that perform no function. They are included for software
compatibility.
6.11 Alert Mask Register
The Alert Mask Register enables interrupts from the temperature monitors and limits. Regardless of
the condition of the individual mask bits, the Status Register will be updated normally.

6.13 Beta Compensation Register
This register is used to set the Beta Compensation factor that is used for the External Diode channel.
When using a diode-connected transistor (such as the 2N3904) or CPUs that implement the thermal
diode as a two-terminal diode, the CPU compensation circuit must be disabled by writing a value of
07h to this register.
Bit 3 - ENABLE - enables the Beta Compensation Factor Autodetection Algorithm
‘0’ - the Beta Compensation Factor Autodetection circuitry is disabled. The External Diode will
always use the Beta Compensation factor set by the BETA[2:0] bits.
‘1’ (default) - the Beta Compensation Factor Autodetection circuitry is enabled. At the beginning of
every conversion, the circuitry will determine the optimal Beta Compensation factor setting and use
the detected setting. The value of the BETA[2:0] bits will be ignored.
Bit 2-0 - BETA[2:0] - selects the Beta Compensation factor that the External Diode will use if the
autodetection circuitry is disabled. Table 6.15 shows the setting that should be used based on the
expected beta value of the substrate transistor connected to the External Diode channel.
Care should be taken when setting the BETA[2:0] bits. If the Beta Compensation factor is set at a beta
value that is higher than the transistor beta, then the circuit may introduce measurement errors.

6.14 TACH Reading Registers
The TACH Registers hold the 16-bit TACH Reading. This reading represents the number of TACH
counts detected. The RPM of the fan can be determined by Equation [3] (see also Appendix B "TACH
Reference Table"). The bit weighting of each TACH[15:0] bit is shown in parenthesis after the value.
When determining the final fan speed, the TACH[15:0] bits need to be decoded into an equivalent
decimal number.

DATASHEET
The TACH Limit Registers store the maximum TACH count that the fan is expected to operate at.
TACH count is inversely proportional to the actual fan speed. This limit is used to guarantee that the
fan has spun up properly. If the measured TACH is higher than this limit (indicating that the fan speed
is lower than the minimum RPM value), then the TACH bit is set in the Status Register.
Additionally if the measured TACH count exceeds this limit, depending on the status of the
TACH_M[1:0] bits (see Section 6.16), the TACH reading registers may be forced to FFFFh.
6.16 Fan Configuration Register
The Fan Configuration Register enables the Fan Control Look-Up Table and polarity of the PWM signal
driving the output.
Bit 6 - FORCE - enables the External Temperature Force Register. This bit is not used if the Fan
Control Look-Up Table is not used.
‘0’ (default) - the External Diode Force Register is not used. The measured External Diode
temperature is used to determine the position in the Fan Control Look-Up Table.
‘1’ - the External Temperature Force Register is used. When determining the position in the Fan
Control Look-Up Table, the contents of the External Temperature Force Register will be used
instead of the measured External Diode temperature. All limits will be checked against the
measured External Diode temperature as normal.
Bit 5 - PROG - enables the Fan Control Look-Up Table for update and sets fan driver output based
on Fan Control Look-Up Table values.
‘0’ - the Fan Setting Register and Fan Control Look-Up Table Registers are read-only and the Fan
Control Look-Up Table Registers will be used.
‘1’ (default) - the Fan Setting Register and Fan Control Look-Up Table Registers can be written.
The value written into the Fan Setting Register will be instantly applied to the fan driver and the
Fan Control Look-Up Table will not be used.
Bit 4 - POLARITY- sets the polarity of the Fan output driver. For the EMC2101-R, the value of this bit
is determined by the value of the pull-up resistor on the ALERT / TACH pin (see Tab le 5.1 ). When the
PWM default value is set at 100% duty cycle, the default value is set to ‘1’ and when the PWM default
value is set to 0% duty cycle, the default value is set to ‘0’. This occurs within 10ms after power-up.
‘0’ (default - EMC2101) - The polarity of the Fan output driver is non-inverted. A ‘00h’ setting will
correspond to a 0% duty cycle or minimum DAC output voltage.
‘1’ - The polarity of the Fan output driver is inverted. A ‘00h’ setting will correspond to a 100% duty
cycle or maximum DAC output voltage.
Bit 3 - CLK_SEL - Determines the base clock that is used to determine the final PWM frequency.
‘0’ (default) - The base clock that is used to determine the PWM frequency is 360kHz.
‘1’ - The base clock that is used to determine the PWM frequency is 1.4kHz.
Bit 2 - CLK_OVR - Overrides the CLK_SEL bit and uses the Frequency Divide Register to determine
the base PWM frequency. It is recommended that this bit be set for maximum PWM resolution.
‘0’ (default) - The base clock frequency for the PWM is determined by the CLK_SEL bit.
‘1’ (recommended) - The base clock that is used to determine the PWM frequency is set by the
Frequency Divide Register

Bit 1-0 - TACH_M[1:0] - Determines the basic operation of the tachometer input as shown in
Table 6.19.
Note 6.2 When the PWM base clock is set at 360kHz mode 00b is used regardless of the setting
of the TACH_M[1:0] bits.
6.17 Fan Spin Up Configuration Register
The Fan Spin Up Configuration register controls the spin-up behavior of the device. The Fan driver
enters its spin-up routine any time it transitions from a minimum fan setting (00h) to a higher fan setting
(but does not invoke the spin-up routine upon power up). Once the spin-up time has been met, the
fan driver is reduced to the programmed setting.
Bit 5 - FAST_TACH - Determines whether the Spin-Up routine aborts when the measured TACH is less
than the TACH Limit.
‘0’ - The Spin-Up routine uses the duty cycle and spin-up time independently of the TACH reading.
‘1’ (default) - The Spin-Up routine will abort when the TACH measurement is less than the TACH
Limit or the programmed Spin-Up time is met, whichever is less. In this case, the SPIN_DRIVE[1:0]
bits are ignored and the drive will always be at 100%.
APPLICATION NOTE: This bit will be ignored if the ALT_TCH bit in the Configuration Register (see Section 6.5) is
set to ‘0’.
APPLICATION NOTE: If the SPIN_TIME[2:0] bits are set at 000b, then the Spin-Up Routine is bypassed regardless
of the status of this bit.
Bit 4 - 3 SPIN_DRIVE[1:0] - Determines the setting of the drive circuit during the Spin-Up routine
according to Ta b l e 6.2 1 .

6.18 Fan Setting Register
The Fan Setting Register drives the fan driver when the Fan Control Look-Up Table is not used (see
Section 6.16). Any data written to the Fan Setting registers is applied immediately to the fan driver
(PWM or DAC). When the Fan Control Look-Up Table is being used, any writes to this register will be
ignored. If the Fan Control Look-Up Table is disabled, then the fan drive will be set at the last value
that was used by the Fan Control Look-Up Table.
When the Fan Control Look-Up Table Registers are being used, the register is read-only.

SMBus Fan Control with 1°C Accurate Temperature Monitoring
Datasheet
Revision 2.54 (06-16-09) 44 SMSC EMC2101
DATASHEET
The register applies to the fan driver in both PWM and DAC operating modes. The DAC output is
determined by equation [4] below.
These values are independent of the POLARITY bit (see Section 6.16). Therefore, a value of 00h in
the Fan Setting Register will always refer to minimum output drive while a setting of 3Fh in the Fan
Setting Register will always refer to maximum output drive.
APPLICATION NOTE: The output of the DAC driver is dependent upon the current load. With a low current load,
the output will be from 0V to an LSB (approximately 52mV at VDD = 3.3V) below VDD with
a maximum of 64 linear steps.
6.19 PWM Frequency Register
The PWM Frequency Register determines the final PWM frequency and “effective resolution” of the
PWM driver. It has no affect on the DAC output resolution.
It is recommended that this register be set at 1Fh for maximum resolution. See Appendix A "Advanced
PWM Options" for full operation of the PWM_F register and its interactions with the PWM Resolution
and Duty Cycle.
6.20 PWM Frequency Divide Register
This register holds an alternate PWM Frequency divide value that can be used instead of the CLK_SEL
bit function. This register can be written at any time, however unless the CLK_OVR bit is set to a logic
‘1’, it is not used.
When the CLK_OVR bit is set to a logic ‘1’, the PWM Frequency Divide Register is used in conjunction
with the PWM Frequency Register to determine the final PWM frequency that the load will see. When
the CLK_OVR bit is set to a logic ‘0’, the setting of this register is not changed and is not used to
determine the effective PWM frequency.
The PWM frequency when the PWM Frequency Divide Register is used is shown in Equation [5].

DATASHEET
Maximum resolution is achieved by setting the PWM Frequency Register to 1Fh. With maximum
resolution, the desired PWM frequency can be achieved by adjusting the PWM Frequency Divide
Register setting (PWM_D[7:0]) as shown in Tabl e 6 . 26.
For example, if the user desires a 30Hz PWM frequency with maximum PWM resolution, then the
PWM_F[4:0] bits should be set at 1Fh (31d) and the PWM_D bits should be set at C1h (193d).
6.21 Fan Control Look-Up Table Hysteresis Register
The Fan Control Look-Up Table Hysteresis Register determines the amount of hysteresis applied to
the temperature inputs of the fan control Fan Control Look-Up Table. See Section 5.6.4.

The table should be loaded with the lowest temperature in the T1 register (50h) and increasing in
temperature for all settings.
See Section 5.6.4 for description of the Fan Control Look Up Table operation. The fan speed settings
for each temperature threshold follow the same behavior as the Fan Setting Register (see
Section 6.18).
6.23 Averaging Filter Register
The Averaging Filter Register controls the level of digital averaging that is used for the External Diode
temperature measurements as well as the configuration of the ALERT / TACH pin functionality.
Bit 2 - 1 - FILTER[1:0] - control the level of digital filtering that is applied to the External Diode
temperature measurements as shown in Table 6.30. See Figure 5.5 and Figure 5.6 for examples on
the filter behavior.
Bit 0 - ALERT_COMP - determines the functionality of the ALERT / TACH pin.
‘0’ (default) - the ALERT / TACH pin is configured to act as an interrupt (see Section 5.4.2).
‘1’ - the ALERT / TACH pin is configured to operate as a temperature comparator (see
Section 5.4.1).

Appendix A Advanced PWM Options
The PWM Frequency Register determines the number of clocks (set by the CLK_SEL bit or the
PWM_D register settings) represent 1/2 of the period of the final PWM output waveform. Therefore,
as the PWM Frequency Register is updated, the PWM frequency is likewise updated. However, it also
directly affects the PWM Resolution and PWM duty cycle.
The PWM frequency is set according to Equation [8] or Equation [9] below or, if the PWM Divide
Register is used, Equation [5] (see Section 6.20, "PWM Frequency Divide Register," on page 44).
The PWM Frequency Register does not affect the Fan Setting (either the Fan Setting Register or the
Fan Setting entries in the Fan Control Look-up Table Registers).
The Fan Setting Register determines the number of clocks that the PWM output is high for is always
based on 64 time steps for a PWM cycle. As the PWM Frequency Register changes (or the Fan Setting
changes) the effective duty cycle will vary according to Equation [6] and the PWM resolution will vary
according to Equation [7]. This is a result of the “on” time determined by Fan Setting changing with
respect to the overall PWM period determined by the PWM Frequency Register.
APPLICATION NOTE: If the Fan Setting is set at a value that is higher than 2x the PWM Frequency Register
settings, the PWM output will be at 100% duty cycle.
Table A.1 shows the effective resolution, duty cycle, and frequency as the PWM Frequency Register
setting is changed.
