Thanks for all the info so far!
I built the circuit, but I wanted to test it before I plugged it into my motherboard. I have a handheld fluke scope how can I use it to see the signal. Would I need a 12V source and a resistor in line to see the response, or is there another way to test it with...
So would the 555 timer and RC circuit be a better solution to fake the rpm signal? https://www.techidiots.net/notes/fake-fan-sensor
I can't find any thing on the specs about the output of the DROK signal generator.
Its not for a motherboard. Its for a hardware miner. The miner checks the fan rpm and shuts down if its not running at 4500 RPM. However I have heavily modified it so it cools with a different system and right now I just have to leave the other fans plugged in to trick the rpm sensor. My...
I believe your right about the blue wire being an RPM signal. My thoughts were the PWM signal generator I have could be used to create a rpm pulse train. It has two settings duty cycle and frequency.

In this listing it...
So I am modifying a system to use a lower rpm fan than it came with.
This is the original fan....

The wiring says...
Red = +
Black = -
Blue = STO
Yellow = PWM
The blue wire looks like a RPM reading off...
