GENERAL DESCRIPTION
W83L784R/G is an evolving product of W83782D/G --- Winbonds most popular hardware status monitoring IC. Specifically designed for the Notebook system, W83L784R/G can be used to monitor several critical hardware parameters of the system, including power supply voltages, fan speeds, and temperatures, which are very important for a high-end Notebook system to work stably and properly.

FEATURES
Monitoring Items
• 2 thermal inputs from remote thermistors or 2N3904 NPN-type transistors or PentiumTM II (Deschutes) thermal diode output
• One on-chip temperature detection
• 4 voltage inputs
    --- typical for Vcore, +3.3V, +5V, Battery
• 2 sets of fan speed control and fan speed monitoring input
• WATCHDOG comparison of all monitored values
• Programmable hysteresis and setting points (alarm thresholds) for all monitored items

Actions Enabling
• Issue fan fault signal as fans are abnomally stopped
• Issue battery low signal as bettery voltage is abnomally out of range
• 2 PWM (pulse width modulation) outputs for fan speed control to support " Thermal CruiseTM " or " Speed CruiseTM "
    --- Automatically maintain the CPU or system in the specific temperature or keep the fans in the specific speed under the H/W control
• Issue SMI#, OVT#, GPO to activate system protection
• PWR_DN# setting for the Power down mode
• Warning signal pop-up in application software

Power Good
• Issue RESET# outputs as the Power Good signal when 3V and 5V rise across a reset threshold.

General
• I2CTM serial bus interface
