+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.
|
|
|
+* While hysteresis limits can be set for all critical limits, setting a single
|
|
|
+ hysteresis value affects the hysteresis values for all limits on all sensors.
|
|
|
+* The limits should be set before the hysteresis.
