- Description
- -----------
- The Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC) / Microchip EMC14xx chips
- contain up to four temperature sensors. EMC14x2 support two sensors
- (one internal, one external). EMC14x3 support three sensors (one internal,
- two external), and EMC14x4 support four sensors (one internal, three
- external).
- The chips implement three limits for each sensor: low (tempX_min), high
- (tempX_max) and critical (tempX_crit.) The chips also implement an
- hysteresis mechanism which applies to all limits. The relative difference
- is stored in a single register on the chip, which means that the relative
- difference between the limit and its hysteresis is always the same for
- all three limits.
- This implementation detail implies the following:
- * When setting a limit, its hysteresis will automatically follow, the
- difference staying unchanged. For example, if the old critical limit
- was 80 degrees C, and the hysteresis was 75 degrees C, and you change
- the critical limit to 90 degrees C, then the hysteresis will
- automatically change to 85 degrees C.
- * The hysteresis values can't be set independently. We decided to make
- only temp1_crit_hyst writable, while all other hysteresis attributes
- are read-only. Setting temp1_crit_hyst writes the difference between
- temp1_crit_hyst and temp1_crit into the chip, and the same relative
- hysteresis applies automatically to all other limits.
- * The limits should be set before the hysteresis.
