Kernel driver ds620 =================== Supported chips: * Dallas Semiconductor DS620 Prefix: 'ds620' Datasheet: Publicly available at the Dallas Semiconductor website http://www.dalsemi.com/ Authors: Roland Stigge based on ds1621.c by Christian W. Zuckschwerdt Description ----------- The DS620 is a (one instance) digital thermometer and thermostat. It has both high and low temperature limits which can be user defined (i.e. programmed into non-volatile on-chip registers). Temperature range is -55 degree Celsius to +125. Between 0 and 70 degree Celsius, accuracy is 0.5 Kelvin. The value returned via sysfs displays post decimal positions. The thermostat function works as follows: When configured via platform_data (struct ds620_platform_data) .pomode == 0 (default), the thermostat output pin PO is always low. If .pomode == 1, the thermostat is in PO_LOW mode. I.e., the output pin PO becomes active when the temperature falls below temp1_min and stays active until the temperature goes above temp1_max. Likewise, with .pomode == 2, the thermostat is in PO_HIGH mode. I.e., the PO output pin becomes active when the temperature goes above temp1_max and stays active until the temperature falls below temp1_min. The PO output pin of the DS620 operates active-low.
