STL6500

The device supports direct PWM input to eliminate the circuit for PWM to DC conversion, thus reducing the external component counts. A friendly programming interface can adjust the settings for fan speed curve.

The STL6500 series features a soft-start function with programmable incremental duty cycle from [Start Duty] to [End Duty] and total [Soft Time] to further smooth-out the power-up spike on the coil current, thus reducing the start-up noise and relaxing the power budget. Other important function such as current limiting options by internal / external, lock protection, and thermal shutdown, etc. are also supported for fan control application.

The STL6500 supports a scheme of lock detection and automatic cease the output current. Once the external resistance is relieved, the devices automatically recover to the previous speed. Various open-drain output types, such as RD, Stop RD, Reversed RD, and FG, are implemented as the tachometer for system to monitor the speed of a DC fan with 4 or 8 magnetic poles.
