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
20 set; only two remote temperature inputs vs the four available on the other
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
