Figure 3. MAX6644 Using Two External Transistors to Measure Remote Temperatures and Control Two 2-Wire Fans. The fan’s power-
supply current is monitored to detect failure of either fan. Connect pin 10 to pin 11 if only one fan is used.
Figure 4. MAX6645 Using Two External Transistors to Measure Remote Temperatures and Control Two 2-Wire Cooling Fans. The
fan’s power-supply current is monitored to detect failure of either fan. Connect FAN_IN1 to FAN_IN2 if only one fan is used.
