Overview
The ADT7473ARQZ-REEL, manufactured by ON Semiconductor, is a comprehensive thermal monitor and multiple PWM fan controller designed for systems that require precise thermal monitoring and active cooling. This device is particularly suited for noise-sensitive or power-sensitive applications. It communicates with the system via a serial system management bus, enabling control and programming functions over this interface. The ADT7473ARQZ-REEL can monitor the temperature of up to two remote sensor diodes and its own internal temperature, and it can control the speed of up to four fans to minimize acoustic noise and optimize system thermals.
