Method and circuit for controlling rotation speed of computer fan
An exemplary method for controlling rotation speed of a computer fan includes: judging the type of a fan by comparing two rotation speeds detected before and after changing a duty cycle of a PWM signal respectively; controlling the computer fan as a 4-pin fan the PWM signals if the rotation speeds are different; and controlling the computer fan as a 3-pin fan via voltage signals converted from the PWM signals if the rotation speeds are equal. And an exemplary circuit for controlling rotation speed of a computer fan is capable of controlling rotation speed of the 4-pin fan via PWM signals, and controlling rotation peed of the 3-pin fan via voltage signals converted from PWM signals.
