Abstract:
A control method for adjusting rotating speed of multiple fans according to temperature of the present invention includes a micro controller circuit board and one or more fans. The circuit board is connected with one or more fans. The rotating speed of the fans are controlled by a PWM duty cycle and the signals of rotating speed are transmitted back to an MCU. Therefore, the rotating speed is adjusted consistently and proportionally with respect to the change in temperature, allowing a computer or server casing to have optimized cooling efficiency.

Claim (Index 1):
A control method for adjusting rotating speed of multiple fans according to temperature, comprising the following steps:\n (1) activating a boot up system and an MCU outputting a PWM duty cycle to the fans while booting up a server or computer system, with the rotating speed of fans being accessed again when the rotating speed tends to be stable after waiting for a period of time; (2) determining whether there is a fan speed table, and if there is no fan speed table, then setting up an initial PWM duty cycle to increase the rotating speed, thereby increasing air flow of the fans for cooling; (3) if there is a fan speed table, it enters a run mode in step (6); (4) after setting up the initial PWM duty cycle, it outputs a PWM signal to all the fans; (5) after waiting for a period of time, it checks whether the PWM duty cycle of the fans is the largest rotating speed, and if it is the largest rotating speed, then it builds up a fan speed table; otherwise, it will increase the PWM duty cycle and returns to step (4) to output the PWM duty cycle to all the fans; and (6) after the fans are at the largest rotating speed and the fan speed table is set up, it will enter the run mode.
