58 | Description | |
59 | ----------- | |
60 | ||
61 | The LM75 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the | |
62 | Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be | |
63 | set and read to half-degree accuracy. | |
64 | An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature | |
65 | gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until | |
66 | the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value. | |
67 | All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a | |
68 | range of -55 to +125 degrees. | |
69 | ||
70 | The LM75 only updates its values each 1.5 seconds; reading it more often | |
71 | will do no harm, but will return 'old' values. | |

73 | The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips |
74 | on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones | |
75 | are now used in various embedded designs. | |

77 | The LM75 is essentially an industry standard; there may be other | |
78 | LM75 clones not listed here, with or without various enhancements, | |
426343ef JD |
79 | that are supported. The clones are not detected by the driver, unless |
80 | they reproduce the exact register tricks of the original LM75, and must | |
81 | therefore be instantiated explicitly. The specific enhancements (such as | |
82 | higher resolution) are not currently supported by the driver. | |

84 | The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time. | |
85 | Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs. |
