Bit 2-0 - UPDATEx[2:0] - determines the base time between fan driver updates. The Update Time,
along with the Fan Step Register, is used to control the ramp rate of the drive response to provide a
cleaner transition of the actual fan operation as the desired fan speed changes. The Update Time is
set as shown in Table 5.13.
