65Description
66-----------
67
68The LM75 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the
69Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be
70set and read to half-degree accuracy.
71An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature
72gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until
73the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
74All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a
75range of -55 to +125 degrees.
76
77The driver caches the values for a period varying between 1 second for the
78slowest chips and 125 ms for the fastest chips; reading it more often
79will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.
80
81The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips
82on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones
83are now used in various embedded designs.
84
85The LM75 is essentially an industry standard; there may be other
86LM75 clones not listed here, with or without various enhancements,
87that are supported. The clones are not detected by the driver, unless
88they reproduce the exact register tricks of the original LM75, and must
89therefore be instantiated explicitly. Higher resolution up to 12-bit
90is supported by this driver, other specific enhancements are not.
91
92The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
93Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
