58This driver implements support for JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensors,
59which are used on many DDR3 memory modules for mobile devices and servers. Some
60systems use the sensor to prevent memory overheating by automatically throttling
61the memory controller.
62

63The driver auto-detects the chips listed above, but can be manually instantiated
64to support other JC 42.4 compliant chips.
65
66Example: the following will load the driver for a generic JC 42.4 compliant
67temperature sensor at address 0x18 on I2C bus #1:
68
69# modprobe jc42
70# echo jc42 0x18 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
71
72A JC 42.4 compliant chip supports a single temperature sensor. Minimum, maximum,
73and critical temperature can be configured. There are alarms for high, low,
74and critical thresholds.
75
76There is also an hysteresis to control the thresholds for resetting alarms.
77Per JC 42.4 specification, the hysteresis threshold can be configured to 0, 1.5,
783.0, and 6.0 degrees C. Configured hysteresis values will be rounded to those
79limits. The chip supports only a single register to configure the hysteresis,
80which applies to all limits. This register can be written by writing into
81temp1_crit_hyst. Other hysteresis attributes are read-only.

83If the BIOS has configured the sensor for automatic temperature management, it
84is likely that it has locked the registers, i.e., that the temperature limits
85cannot be changed.
