43 Description
44 -----------
46 This driver supports hardware montoring for various PMBus compliant devices.
47 It supports voltage, current, power, and temperature sensors as supported
48 by the device.
50 Each monitored channel has its own high and low limits, plus a critical
51 limit.
53 Fan support will be added in a later version of this driver.
56 Usage Notes
57 -----------
59 This driver does not probe for PMBus devices, since there is no register
60 which can be safely used to identify the chip (The MFG_ID register is not
61 supported by all chips), and since there is no well defined address range for
62 PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate the devices explicitly.
64 Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC2978 at address 0x60
65 on I2C bus #1:
66 $ modprobe pmbus
67 $ echo ltc2978 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
70 Platform data support
71 ---------------------
73 Support for additional PMBus chips can be added by defining chip parameters in
74 a new chip specific driver file. For example, (untested) code to add support for
75 Emerson DS1200 power modules might look as follows.

139 Sysfs entries
140 -------------
142 When probing the chip, the driver identifies which PMBus registers are
143 supported, and determines available sensors from this information.
144 Attribute files only exist if respective sensors are supported by the chip.
145 Labels are provided to inform the user about the sensor associated with
146 a given sysfs entry.
