| 13 | Description | |
| 14 | ----------- | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | This driver implements support for the Maxim MAX1668, MAX1805 and MAX1989 | |
| 17 | chips. | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | The three devices are very similar, but the MAX1805 has a reduced feature | |
| 76b5808e | 20 | set; only two remote temperature inputs vs the four available on the other |
| 731b4cac DG |
21 | two ICs. |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | The driver is able to distinguish between the devices and creates sysfs | |
| 24 | entries as follows: | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | MAX1805, MAX1668 and MAX1989: | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | temp1_input ro local (ambient) temperature | |
| 29 | temp1_max rw local temperature maximum threshold for alarm | |
| 30 | temp1_max_alarm ro local temperature maximum threshold alarm | |
| 31 | temp1_min rw local temperature minimum threshold for alarm | |
| 32 | temp1_min_alarm ro local temperature minimum threshold alarm | |
| 33 | temp2_input ro remote temperature 1 | |
| 34 | temp2_max rw remote temperature 1 maximum threshold for alarm | |
| 35 | temp2_max_alarm ro remote temperature 1 maximum threshold alarm | |
| 36 | temp2_min rw remote temperature 1 minimum threshold for alarm | |
| 37 | temp2_min_alarm ro remote temperature 1 minimum threshold alarm | |
| 38 | temp3_input ro remote temperature 2 | |
| 39 | temp3_max rw remote temperature 2 maximum threshold for alarm | |
| 40 | temp3_max_alarm ro remote temperature 2 maximum threshold alarm | |
| 41 | temp3_min rw remote temperature 2 minimum threshold for alarm | |
| 42 | temp3_min_alarm ro remote temperature 2 minimum threshold alarm | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | MAX1668 and MAX1989 only: | |
| 45 | temp4_input ro remote temperature 3 | |
| 46 | temp4_max rw remote temperature 3 maximum threshold for alarm | |
| 47 | temp4_max_alarm ro remote temperature 3 maximum threshold alarm | |
| 48 | temp4_min rw remote temperature 3 minimum threshold for alarm | |
| 49 | temp4_min_alarm ro remote temperature 3 minimum threshold alarm | |
| 50 | temp5_input ro remote temperature 4 | |
| 51 | temp5_max rw remote temperature 4 maximum threshold for alarm | |
| 52 | temp5_max_alarm ro remote temperature 4 maximum threshold alarm | |
| 53 | temp5_min rw remote temperature 4 minimum threshold for alarm | |
| 54 | temp5_min_alarm ro remote temperature 4 minimum threshold alarm | |

| 59 | * read_only: int | |
| 60 | Set to non-zero if you wish to prevent write access to alarm thresholds. |
