Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a fan rotation speed control circuit that controls the rotation speed of a fan according to the configuration inside the electronic device when the electronic device is cooled by the fan.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, cooling of an electronic device or the like having various configuration states by a fan is performed so that the temperature rise of each part in the electronic device is equal to or less than a predetermined temperature rise in the maximum configuration state of the electronic device. Since the fan's rotation speed (cooling capacity) is determined, the fan's rotation speed was always set to be almost constant even in a configuration that did not reach the maximum configuration.

FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram showing a configuration of a conventional fan rotation speed control circuit. In the figure, in the electronic device 1, DC power is supplied from the power supply 2 to the basic logic unit 4 via the connector 3, and DC power is supplied to the option unit 5 via the connector 6 so that the cooling fan 7 can operate. It was cooled down.

However, according to the cooling method by the fan rotation speed control circuit configured as described above, the rotation speed of the fan 7 is the same regardless of the presence or absence of the option portion 5, and the fan 7 is not provided in the configuration without the option portion 5. However, there was a problem that the rotation speed was unnecessarily high and the rotation noise became loud.

FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of a fan rotation speed control circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the same components as those in FIG. 2 are designated by the same reference numerals. In the figure, one terminal of the fan 7 whose rotational speed changes according to the voltage is connected to the DC voltage V A , the other terminal is connected to the ground through the resistor 8, and the resistor 9 including the resistance value 0Ω. It is connected to a connector 6'for supplying power to the option section 5 via. As shown in the figure, the power supply connector 6'of the option section 5 having a strict temperature rise restriction such as a hard disk or the one with large power consumption is provided with a ground terminal, and if the option section 5 is not connected, the fan 7 is provided. Since the voltage divided by the resistor 8 is applied, the fan 7 has a low rotation speed, and when the option unit 5 is connected, the fan 7 receives the voltage divided by the parallel resistance of the resistor 8 and the resistor 9. When applied, the fan 7 rotates at the rotation speed necessary to cool the option portion 5.

As described above, the present invention provides an interface capable of detecting that the option section is connected to a power supply connector such as an option section with severe temperature rise restriction and an option section with large power consumption. By changing the voltage applied to the cooling fan depending on the presence / absence and changing the rotation speed of the fan, it is possible to achieve cooling corresponding to the internal configuration of the electronic device. Therefore, in the configuration without the option, the extremely excellent effect that the noise of the fan can be reduced can be obtained.
