Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a computer fan control circuit and a computer fan control method. [Prior Art] With the rapid development of computer technology, computer systems usually have a large amount of computing processing, and the heat generated during busy tasks is gradually increasing. The heat dissipation holes and heat sinks alone cannot solve the heat dissipation problem. On the other hand, the air-cooling technology with higher cost performance is the most commonly used heat dissipation method for computer systems. However, although the fan is economical and practical, it also has many defects: as the speed increases, the noise generated by the fan during high-speed operation gradually increases; Long-term high-speed operation will not only shorten the life of the fan, but also cause a large amount of fan itself. If the fan can run at high speed when the system is busy, when the system runs smoothly, reduce the speed or even stop, you can get the most reasonable use, which not only improves the service life of the fan, but also reduces unnecessary heat generation. A smart fan technology is developed for the rational use of fans. It uses Intel's Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) specification to control the chip according to the input and output (Super I/O, SIO). Control the duty cycle of the PWM to control the speed of the fan. Since the PWM change is based on the temperature data of the diode reading inside the central processor, the accuracy exceeds the thermistor, so the fan speed is adjusted according to the duty cycle of the PWM pulse width, and the control precision is also high. Through Smart Fan technology, users can set the CPU and host 200903983's temperature limit independently in the Basic Input Output System (BIOS). When the fan passes the PWM pulse to judge the temperature system, the automatic operation can be performed according to the generated The heat regulates the speed; on the contrary, if the temperature does not exceed the set limit, the fan will rest properly. Only 4Pin fans in the fan can be realized by pwM: Fan function 1 3Pin fan does not have a corresponding PWM signal, so 3pin is connected to control the speed. Received: its jade for the power of the size 2: the market support Smari Fan's motherboard is noisy:: a common: defect 'can only support the coffee or his fan in the kind of such a pair of households, on the wind, yang, yang Covering for "they are inconvenient, the same connection; the: posed two! The limitations of the board-to-fan type, different requirements for the fan, increase the difficulty of purchasing τ components. For example, the control line integration required for π and 4Pln fans makes It is enough to automatically distinguish the fan type and will not happen again for 1 turn, reverse month b. I heart rate control, then ask [invention], in view of the above, it is necessary to provide a computer fan control method, The knife discriminates the fan type, and selects different control modes according to the resolution result to provide different types of fan transfer control functions. The same type = fan type computer fan control circuit can selectively control the non-iijm fan control method, including ··Measure the speed of the fan through the speed counter; change the period of transmission to the fan; through the transfer to the external age. The muscle sees the task of 5 weeks, 11 is, Dong After the change of the wide-change signal task period is changed, the transmission of the fan is changed. The fan is changed. If the speed changes, the fan: = the fan is changed to the second type before and after the change of the cycle; Fan 'If the speed is not sent: the two input and output control chip control pulse width adjustment: for the first type of fan, the speed of the fan is made; and if the fan ° - under the task period of the fan to adjust the transmission of the fan control circuit To the fan-type fan, the fan speed is controlled by the wind-type computer fan control circuit = small. The first and third ends, the first receiving -Ur includes the first, the younger one control signal, the third The terminal passes through the card-and-one-side receiving end; an operational amplifier, including the same-directional wheel: the knife and the integrating capacitor are connected to the output terminal, and the same-direction input terminal is transmitted through the -to-minus resistor: the reverse input terminal and the - Between the integral resistor and the integral capacitor, the 'inverting input is connected to a power supply; the current controller includes a first output and a third connection, and the second connection is connected to the second power supply. Another - voltage divider resistor Connection, the third end output-fan control 'the same direction of the main input of the current control H the first end of the wheel (four). And the money fan control signal by the first control signal and the fan control the second wheel end, Receiving the front fan control method separately can distinguish the fan type, and according to respectively, ". The dynamic selection control mode can selectively provide the speed of different types of fans. The above fan control circuit integrates the speed control of different types of fans, and can be used according to the fan_suitable line. [Embodiment] 200903983 Referring to FIG. 1, the computer fan control method of the present invention includes the steps of step 1. The transmission result is transmitted to the basic input by the transmission-transfer count method. The system input: _fan: transfer And will measure a round-in output control chip to change the transmission Τ σ, .a, step 2, the task period of the pass-through number, to reduce it; one of the fan pulse width modulation = pulse width modulation signal task cycle Fan 1 = speed counter effect is sent to the basic input wheeling system; + τν, the sub-measure will measure the age of the pulse $ μ ^ v ~ 4 'Basic input wheel in the 糸 见 调 line number task cycle change before and after the fan = 糸The fan speed is controlled by the pulse width modulation signal task cycle, @3p is in this function, so if the @ln fan does not have the wind-proof A 4P.
