The MAX6684 is an integrated fan-failure detector thatdetects when a fan exhibits excessive underspeed or alocked rotor. This device is especially well suited for criti-cal systems where no fan control, or simple on/off controlis desired. The MAX6684 detects fan failure by evaluat-ing fluctuations in current at the low side of the fan; notachometer signal is necessary. The output of the device,FAIL , is an active-low, open-drain alarm. The MAX6684can also be used to switch the fan on or off, based onthe state of a logic-level input, OFF . This device can beused with fans rated at up to 24V and 250mA. TheMAX6684 is available in an 8-pin SO package, and isspecified for operation from -40 to +85.
