SpeedFan works fine with Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, 2003 and Windows XP.
#SOFTWARE FOR SAMSUNG ON MAC SERIAL#
SpeedFan can find almost any hardware monitor chip connected to the 2-wire SMBus (System Management Bus, a subset of the I2C BUS) Serial Interface and to the ISA BUS. The most used are National PC87366 and all of SMSC LPC SuperIO chips. SpeedFan can automatically detect them and use their features. Some SuperIO chips include temperature sensors too. Winbond W83697HF, Analog Devices ADT7463, SMSC EMC6D102, ITE IT8712F, National LM85C and Maxim MAX6650 are very good candidates.
#SOFTWARE FOR SAMSUNG ON MAC MANUAL#
If your BIOS was programmed to setup such chips this way you can still try to use SpeedFan’s Advanced Configuration to revert to manual (software controlled) mode. Some chips can even be programmed to vary fan speeds without any additional software intervention. Current chips can monitor fan speeds, voltages and control fan speeds bu using PWMs (Pulse Width Modulation). This means that if you have, say, a Winbond W83782D on a BP6 then you’re ok, but not every motherboard with such an hardware monitor chip will be able to change fan speeds.įrom one of the very first hardware monitor chips that could be found in standard PCs, the National Semiconductor LM75 (and all of its clones, like the Philips NE1617 and the Philips NE1618 or the Maxim MAX1617) or the Analog Devices ADM1021, such chips have been greatly improved, both in their precision and in their capabilities.
Several sensors, like Winbond’s and the AS99127F support fan speed changing, as well as others from Maxim, Myson, Analog Devices, National Semiconductor and ITE, but the hardware manufacturer must have connected the relevant pins to some additional, yet trivial, circuitry. At the lowest level, SpeedFan is an hardware monitor software that can access temperature sensors, but its main feature is that it can control fan speeds (depending on the capabilities of your sensor chip and your hardware) according to the temperatures inside your pc, thus reducing noise and power consumption. SpeedFan can even change the FSB on some hardware (but this should be considered a bonus feature). info for those hard disks that support this feature and show hard disk temperatures too, if supported.
