Table 12. Fan Count Divisor Register (RFCD/WFCD)
Notes: This byte sets the prescalar division ratio for tachometer or current-sense feedback. (This register does not apply to the tach
signal used in the Fan-Speed register). Select this value such that the fan frequency (RPM/60 x number of poles) divided by
the FCD falls in the 33Hz to 66Hz range. See TACH IN section.
Bits 1, 0: 00 = divide by 1, 01 = divide by 2, 10 = divide by 4, 11 = divide by 8.
