262 The LM90 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as
263 well as the temperature of up to one external diode. It is compatible
264 with many other devices, many of which are supported by this driver.
266 Note that there is no easy way to differentiate between the MAX6657,
267 MAX6658 and MAX6659 variants. The extra features of the MAX6659 are only
268 supported by this driver if the chip is located at address 0x4d or 0x4e,
269 or if the chip type is explicitly selected as max6659.
270 The MAX6680 and MAX6681 only differ in their pinout, therefore they obviously
271 can't (and don't need to) be distinguished.
273 The specificity of this family of chipsets over the ADM1021/LM84
274 family is that it features critical limits with hysteresis, and an
275 increased resolution of the remote temperature measurement.
277 The different chipsets of the family are not strictly identical, although
278 very similar. For reference, here comes a non-exhaustive list of specific
282 * Filter and alert configuration register at 0xBF.
283 * ALERT is triggered by temperatures over critical limits.
287 * Better external channel accuracy
291 * External temperature shifted by 16 degrees down
294 * Consecutive alert register at 0x22.
295 * Conversion averaging.
296 * Up to 64 conversions/s.
297 * ALERT is triggered by open remote sensor.
298 * SMBus PEC support for Write Byte and Receive Byte transactions.
300 ADT7461, ADT7461A, NCT1008:
301 * Extended temperature range (breaks compatibility)
302 * Lower resolution for remote temperature
305 * Better local resolution
306 * Remote sensor type selection
309 * Better local resolution
311 * Second critical temperature limit
312 * Remote sensor type selection
316 * Remote sensor type selection
319 * Better local resolution
320 * Selectable address (max6696)
321 * Second critical temperature limit
325 * The G variant is lead-free, otherwise similar to the W.
326 * Filter and alert configuration register at 0xBF
327 * Moving average (depending on conversion rate)
330 * Successor of the W83L771W/G, same features.
331 * The AWG and ASG variants only differ in package format.
332 * Diode ideality factor configuration (remote sensor) at 0xE3
335 * Better local resolution
337 All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution
338 is 1.0 degree for the local temperature, 0.125 degree for the remote
339 temperature, except for the MAX6657, MAX6658 and MAX6659 which have a
340 resolution of 0.125 degree for both temperatures.
342 Each sensor has its own high and low limits, plus a critical limit.
343 Additionally, there is a relative hysteresis value common to both critical
344 values. To make life easier to user-space applications, two absolute values
345 are exported, one for each channel, but these values are of course linked.
346 Only the local hysteresis can be set from user-space, and the same delta
347 applies to the remote hysteresis.
349 The lm90 driver will not update its values more frequently than configured with
350 the update_interval attribute; reading them more often will do no harm, but will
356 This driver has basic support for SMBus alert. When an alert is received,
357 the status register is read and the faulty temperature channel is logged.
359 The Analog Devices chips (ADM1032, ADT7461 and ADT7461A) and ON
360 Semiconductor chips (NCT1008) do not implement the SMBus alert protocol
361 properly so additional care is needed: the ALERT output is disabled when
362 an alert is received, and is re-enabled only when the alarm is gone.
363 Otherwise the chip would block alerts from other chips in the bus as long
364 as the alarm is active.
369 The ADM1032 is the only chip of the family which supports PEC. It does
370 not support PEC on all transactions though, so some care must be taken.
372 When reading a register value, the PEC byte is computed and sent by the
373 ADM1032 chip. However, in the case of a combined transaction (SMBus Read
374 Byte), the ADM1032 computes the CRC value over only the second half of
375 the message rather than its entirety, because it thinks the first half
376 of the message belongs to a different transaction. As a result, the CRC
377 value differs from what the SMBus master expects, and all reads fail.
379 For this reason, the lm90 driver will enable PEC for the ADM1032 only if
380 the bus supports the SMBus Send Byte and Receive Byte transaction types.
381 These transactions will be used to read register values, instead of
382 SMBus Read Byte, and PEC will work properly.
384 Additionally, the ADM1032 doesn't support SMBus Send Byte with PEC.
385 Instead, it will try to write the PEC value to the register (because the
386 SMBus Send Byte transaction with PEC is similar to a Write Byte transaction
387 without PEC), which is not what we want. Thus, PEC is explicitly disabled
388 on SMBus Send Byte transactions in the lm90 driver.
390 PEC on byte data transactions represents a significant increase in bandwidth
391 usage (+33% for writes, +25% for reads) in normal conditions. With the need
392 to use two SMBus transaction for reads, this overhead jumps to +50%. Worse,
393 two transactions will typically mean twice as much delay waiting for
394 transaction completion, effectively doubling the register cache refresh time.
395 I guess reliability comes at a price, but it's quite expensive this time.
397 So, as not everyone might enjoy the slowdown, PEC can be disabled through
398 sysfs. Just write 0 to the "pec" file and PEC will be disabled. Write 1
399 to that file to enable PEC again.
