LM96163: There is no Tach reading for lm96163

Part Number: LM96163
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM63

Deal SIR:

We are adopting your lm96163 in out platform now.

The fan that we use has the maximum rpm 10500, 3 wire , 5Volt

Since we did not have remote temperature sensor connected to lm96163, we shorted D+ & D1 together .

(if we don't short D+ & D- together, lm96163 cannot be controlled by reg(4C))

The register settings in lm96163 are listed below:(in sequence)

Reg(03)= 0x04

Reg(4A)= 0x28

Reg(4D)= 5

Reg(4C) =0x0a

The fan speed can be controlled by Reg(4C) , however the tach reading is always 0 

Could you help me to tell where is the problem is ?
