4-Channel Fan Module

This module is a multispeed fan module controlled by low/high selection or continuous variability by a temperature sensor (thermistor) at each fan control circuit. With a thermistor attached to an external device, one or more fans will increase or decrease their speed for changing air pressure and cooling. Each fan has a separate thermistor/temperature sensor for maximum flexibility. Conversely, all fans can be enabled at high speed to their maximum with SW1, SW2, SW3, and SW4.

The 3″ x 5″ form factor is mountable for stacking onto other modules of these dimensions. Depending upon how the fans are mounted, hot or cool air can become either injected or ejected depending upon the intended application. This module is a straight forward thermal management device that suitably accompanies single board computers or other devices that require additional derating to be improved or required longevity.
