| Description |
W83792AG is an evolving version of the W83791G --- Nuvoton's most popular hardware status monitoring IC. W83792AG supports single CPU application which provides 1 set thermal trip and 1 set of VID controlling. A 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is built inside W83792AG. W83792AG can simultaneously monitor 9 analog voltage inputs (including power VDD/5VSB monitoring), 7 fan tachometer inputs, and 3 remote temperature sensor inputs. W83792AG provides 7 PWM (pulse width modulation) / DC fan output modes for smart fan control - Thermal CruiseTM mode and Smart FanTM II mode. As for warning mechanism, W83792AG provides SMI#, OVT#, IRQ signals for system protection events. W83792AG has 2 specific pins to provide selectable address setting for application of multiple devices (up to 4 devices) wired through I2C interface.
W83792AG can uniquely serve as an ASF sensor to respond to ASF master’s request for the implementation of network management in OS-absent status. Through W83792AG’s compliance with ASF2.0 sensor specification, network server is able to monitor the environmental status of each client in OS-absent state by PET (Platform Event Trip) frame values returned from W83792AG. The working voltage of W83792AG is 5V, and the package is 48-pin LQFP. |
