Bits [TACH-Low-Limit15:TACH-Low-Limit0] are the value that corresponds to the predetermined minimum

allowable fan speed (RPM). If the value of the TACH data register is greater than this bound, the fan speed is

below the minimum allowed RPM.

allowable fan speed (RPM). If the value of the TACH data register is smaller than this bound, the fan speed is

above the maximum allowed RPM.
