Can NI 9474 be used to control injectors and 4-pin fans?

Hello,

 

I am trying to control 3 banks of four 4-wire, pwm fans, as well as 3 fuel injectors. I want to use pwm to control both the fuel injectors and the fans.

Here is the fan I am trying to use: http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/471/9SG1224P1G01-10596.pdf

 

My first question - can I connect the digital output of this module directly to the control wire of the fan?

I believe the NI9474 is a source, so it provides cuurrent, and the fan spec says that it acts as a sink at 1mA @ 0V.

Can I just connect the 4 control wires from a bank of fans into one digital out?

 

If I supply 5V to the NI9474, do I need to add a resistor or something in line to the control wire?

 

Would the NI9474 be capable of outputting 6 different pwm signals at different frequencies?

 

Thanks,


Mitchell
