  29Description
  30-----------
  31
  32This driver implements support for the hardware sensor capabilities
  33of the SMSC LPC47M192 and compatible Super-I/O chips.
  34
  35These chips support 3 temperature channels and 8 voltage inputs
  36as well as CPU voltage VID input.
  37
  38They do also have fan monitoring and control capabilities, but the
  39these features are accessed via ISA bus and are not supported by this
  40driver. Use the 'smsc47m1' driver for fan monitoring and control.
  41
  42Voltages and temperatures are measured by an 8-bit ADC, the resolution
  43of the temperatures is 1 bit per degree C.
  44Voltages are scaled such that the nominal voltage corresponds to
  45192 counts, i.e. 3/4 of the full range. Thus the available range for
  46each voltage channel is 0V ... 255/192*(nominal voltage), the resolution
  47is 1 bit per (nominal voltage)/192.
  48Both voltage and temperature values are scaled by 1000, the sys files
  49show voltages in mV and temperatures in units of 0.001 degC.
  50
  51The +12V analog voltage input channel (in4_input) is multiplexed with
  52bit 4 of the encoded CPU voltage. This means that you either get
  53a +12V voltage measurement or a 5 bit CPU VID, but not both.
  54The default setting is to use the pin as 12V input, and use only 4 bit VID.
  55This driver assumes that the information in the configuration register
  56is correct, i.e. that the BIOS has updated the configuration if
  57the motherboard has this input wired to VID4.
  58
  59The temperature and voltage readings are updated once every 1.5 seconds.
  60Reading them more often repeats the same values.

  67in0_input             +2.5V voltage input
  68in1_input             CPU voltage input (nominal 2.25V)
  69in2_input             +3.3V voltage input
  70in3_input             +5V voltage input
  71in4_input             +12V voltage input (may be missing if used as VID4)
  72in5_input             Vcc voltage input (nominal 3.3V)
  73                      This is the supply voltage of the sensor chip itself.
  74in6_input             +1.5V voltage input
  75in7_input             +1.8V voltage input
  76
  77in[0-7]_min,
  78in[0-7]_max           lower and upper alarm thresholds for in[0-7]_input reading
  79
  80                      All voltages are read and written in mV.
  81
  82in[0-7]_alarm         alarm flags for voltage inputs
  83                      These files read '1' in case of alarm, '0' otherwise.
  84
  85temp1_input           chip temperature measured by on-chip diode
  86temp[2-3]_input       temperature measured by external diodes (one of these
  87                      would typically be wired to the diode inside the CPU)
  88
  89temp[1-3]_min,
  90temp[1-3]_max         lower and upper alarm thresholds for temperatures
  91
  92temp[1-3]_offset      temperature offset registers
  93                      The chip adds the offsets stored in these registers to
  94                      the corresponding temperature readings.
  95                      Note that temp1 and temp2 offsets share the same register,
  96                      they cannot both be different from zero at the same time.
  97                      Writing a non-zero number to one of them will reset the other
  98                      offset to zero.
  99
 100                      All temperatures and offsets are read and written in
 101                      units of 0.001 degC.
 102
 103temp[1-3]_alarm       alarm flags for temperature inputs, '1' in case of alarm,
 104                      '0' otherwise.
 105temp[2-3]_input_fault diode fault flags for temperature inputs 2 and 3.
 106                      A fault is detected if the two pins for the corresponding
 107                      sensor are open or shorted, or any of the two is shorted
 108                      to ground or Vcc. '1' indicates a diode fault.

 110cpu0_vid              CPU voltage as received from the CPU

 115The `*_min`, `*_max`, `*_offset` and `vrm` files can be read and written,
 116all others are read-only.
