- Kernel driver asb100
- ====================
- Supported Chips:
- * Asus ASB100 and ASB100-A "Bach"
- Prefix: 'asb100'
- Addresses scanned: I2C 0x2d
- Datasheet: none released
- Author: Mark M. Hoffman <mhoffman@lightlink.com>
- Description
- -----------
- This driver implements support for the Asus ASB100 and ASB100-A "Bach".
- These are custom ASICs available only on Asus mainboards. Asus refuses to
- supply a datasheet for these chips. Thanks go to many people who helped
- investigate their hardware, including:
- Vitaly V. Bursov
- Alexander van Kaam (author of MBM for Windows)
- Bertrik Sikken
- The ASB100 implements seven voltage sensors, three fan rotation speed
- sensors, four temperature sensors, VID lines and alarms. In addition to
- these, the ASB100-A also implements a single PWM controller for fans 2 and
- 3 (i.e. one setting controls both.) If you have a plain ASB100, the PWM
- controller will simply not work (or maybe it will for you... it doesn't for
- me).
- Temperatures are measured and reported in degrees Celsius.
- Fan speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
- triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit.
- Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report values in volts.
- The VID lines encode the core voltage value: the voltage level your
- processor should work with. This is hardcoded by the mainboard and/or
- processor itself. It is a value in volts.
- Alarms: (TODO question marks indicate may or may not work)
- 0x0001 => in0 (?)
- 0x0002 => in1 (?)
- 0x0004 => in2
- 0x0008 => in3
- 0x0010 => temp1 (1)
- 0x0020 => temp2
- 0x0040 => fan1
- 0x0080 => fan2
- 0x0100 => in4
- 0x0200 => in5 (?) (2)
- 0x0400 => in6 (?) (2)
- 0x0800 => fan3
- 0x1000 => chassis switch
- 0x2000 => temp3
- Alarm Notes:
- (1) This alarm will only trigger if the hysteresis value is 127C.
- I.e. it behaves the same as w83781d.
- (2) The min and max registers for these values appear to
- be read-only or otherwise stuck at 0x00.
- TODO:
- * Experiment with fan divisors > 8.
- * Experiment with temp. sensor types.
- * Are there really 13 voltage inputs? Probably not...
- * Cleanups, no doubt...
