Limits can be set through the +Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be +set and read to half-degree accuracy. +An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature +gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until +the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value. +All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a +range of -55 to +125 degrees. + +The driver caches the values for a period varying between 1 second for the +slowest chips and 125 ms for the fastest chips; reading it more often +will do no harm, but will return 'old' values. + +The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips +on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones +are now used in various embedded designs. + +The LM75 is essentially an industry standard; there may be other +LM75 clones not listed here, with or without various enhancements, +that are supported. The clones are not detected by the driver, unless +they reproduce the exact register tricks of the original LM75, and must +therefore be instantiated explicitly. Higher resolution up to 16-bit +is supported by this driver, other specific enhancements are not. + +The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time. +Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs. |
