- Kernel driver ltc2945
- =====================
- Supported chips:
- * Linear Technology LTC2945
- Prefix: 'ltc2945'
- Addresses scanned: -
- Datasheet:
- http://cds.linear.com/docs/en/datasheet/2945fa.pdf
- Author: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>
- Description
- -----------
- The LTC2945 is a rail-to-rail system monitor that measures current, voltage,
- and power consumption.
- Usage Notes
- -----------
- This driver does not probe for LTC2945 devices, since there is no register
- which can be safely used to identify the chip. You will have to instantiate
- the devices explicitly.
- Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC2945 at address 0x10
- on I2C bus #1:
- $ modprobe ltc2945
- $ echo ltc2945 0x10 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
- Sysfs entries
- -------------
- Voltage readings provided by this driver are reported as obtained from the ADC
- registers. If a set of voltage divider resistors is installed, calculate the
- real voltage by multiplying the reported value with (R1+R2)/R2, where R1 is the
- value of the divider resistor against the measured voltage and R2 is the value
- of the divider resistor against Ground.
- Current reading provided by this driver is reported as obtained from the ADC
- Current Sense register. The reported value assumes that a 1 mOhm sense resistor
- is installed. If a different sense resistor is installed, calculate the real
- current by dividing the reported value by the sense resistor value in mOhm.
- in1_input VIN voltage (mV). Voltage is measured either at
- SENSE+ or VDD pin depending on chip configuration.
