54Description
55-----------
56
57This driver implements support for JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensors,
58which are used on many DDR3 memory modules for mobile devices and servers. Some
59systems use the sensor to prevent memory overheating by automatically throttling
60the memory controller.
61
62The driver auto-detects the chips listed above, but can be manually instantiated
63to support other JC 42.4 compliant chips.
64
65Example: the following will load the driver for a generic JC 42.4 compliant
66temperature sensor at address 0x18 on I2C bus #1:
67
68# modprobe jc42
69# echo jc42 0x18 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
70
71A JC 42.4 compliant chip supports a single temperature sensor. Minimum, maximum,
72and critical temperature can be configured. There are alarms for high, low,
73and critical thresholds.
74
75There is also an hysteresis to control the thresholds for resetting alarms.
76Per JC 42.4 specification, the hysteresis threshold can be configured to 0, 1.5,
773.0, and 6.0 degrees C. Configured hysteresis values will be rounded to those
78limits. The chip supports only a single register to configure the hysteresis,
79which applies to all limits. This register can be written by writing into
80temp1_crit_hyst. Other hysteresis attributes are read-only.
81
82If the BIOS has configured the sensor for automatic temperature management, it
83is likely that it has locked the registers, i.e., that the temperature limits
84cannot be changed.
