Description
-----------
The chips supported by this driver are very similar. The Maxim MAX1617
is the oldest; it has the problem that it is not very well detectable.
The MAX1617A solves that. The ADM1021 is a straight clone of the MAX1617A.
Ditto for the THMC10.
From here on, we will refer to all these chips as ADM1021-clones.
ADM1021-clones implement two temperature sensors. One of them is internal,
and measures the temperature of the chip itself; the other is external
and is realised in the form of a transistor-like device. A special alarm
indicates whether the remote sensor is connected.
Each sensor has its own low and high limits. When they are crossed, the
corresponding alarm is set and remains on as long as the temperature stays
out of range. Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius. Measurements
are possible between -65 and +127 degrees, with a resolution of one degree.
The ADM1021 reports a die code, which is a sort of revision code. This
can help us pinpoint problems; it is not very useful otherwise.
If an alarm triggers, it will remain triggered until the hardware register
is read at least once. This means that the cause for the alarm may
already have disappeared!
This driver only updates its values each 1.5 seconds; reading it more often
will do no harm, but will return 'old' values. It is possible to make
ADM1021-clones do faster measurements, but there is really no good reason
for that.
Xeon support
------------
Some Xeon processors have real max1617, adm1021, or compatible chips
with in them, with two temperature sensors.
Other Xeons have chips with only one sensor.
If you have a Xeon, and the adm1021 module loads, and both
temperatures appear valid, then things are good.
If the adm1021 module doesn't load, you should try two things:
1) modprobe adm1021 force_adm1021=BUS,ADDRESS
ADDRESS can only be 0x18, 0x1a, 0x29, 0x2b, 0x4c, or 0x4e.
See if you have one or two valid temperatures
2) modprobe xeontemp
See if you have one valid temperature.
If you have dual Xeons you may have appear to have two separate
adm1021-compatible chips, or two single-temperature sensors,
at distinct addresses.
Pick the best module for your processor based on the results.
See the xeontemp documentation for further information.

Old Documentation (may be outdated)
-----------------------------------
This file documents the adm1021 directories for the Analog Devices ADM1021
and MAX1617 temperature sensor chip. Note that this last chip should be
fully compatible; it is not yet well-tested, though.
There will be one directory created for each detected ADM1021 chip. As
ADM1021 chips can only be on a SMBus, they will be called adm1021-i2c-?-??, with
the first question mark being the number of the i2c bus (see /proc/bus/i2c
for a list of them, if i2c-proc is loaded), and the SMBus (I2C) address
of the chip at the end. An ADM1021 is uniquely characterised with these
two numbers. Likewise, for each MAX1617 chip, a directory max1617-i2c-?-??
will be created. /proc/sys/dev/sensors/chips contains the SYSCTL values for
all chip directories.
Within each ADM1021 or MAX1617 directory, you can find the following files:
* die_code (ADM1021_SYSCTL_DIE_CODE)
Silicon die (mask) revision code. This driver was written using a sample
device of die code 3. Normally this kind of information isn't reported
in its own proc file, but for a device this simple I didn't think it
would hurt.
* status (ADM1021_SYSCTL_STATUS)
This is an intergral number composed of 8-bits, which indicate the
different alarms and conversion status's of the chip. Here is what
each bit indicates:
7 BUSY 1 When ADC Converting.
6 LHIGH# 1 When Local High Temp Limit Tripped.
5 LLOW# 1 When Local Low Temp Limit Tripped.
4 RHIGH# 1 When Remote High Temp Limit Tripped.
3 RLOW# 1 When Remote Low Temp Limit Tripped.
2 OPEN# 1 When Remote Sensor Open-Circuit. (i.e., no connected remote
sensor)
1-0 Reserved.
Note: # - These flags stay high until the status register is read or they
are reset by POR.
* temp1 (ADM1021_SYSCTL_TEMP)
A list of three numbers. The first number is the Overtemperature Shutdown
value, the second number is Low limit value, and the third number is the
current temperature. The first two values can be modified. Each value can
be set and read to full-degree accuracy. All values are in degrees Celsius.
An alarm is issued (usually to a connected ADM9240) when the temperature
gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until
the temperature falls back below the Overtemperature Shutdown value.
NOTE: This is different than the way most remote temperature sensors work
(e.g. the LM75), they usually use the lower limit to clear the alarm set
from initially going above the Overtemperature limit. Instead, the
ADM1021 acts much the way that voltage limits work on, say, the LM78 or
ADM9240. A disadvantage to this is that the alarm doesn't have a
hysteresis (like a shmidt-trigger or thermostat) type of function for
doing things like controlling over-heat fans and such. Instead, the
lower limit can be used to signal an alarm if (goodness forbid!) the
computer gets too cold.
If accessed through sysctl, this is a list of longs, each being the
temperature times 10.
* temp2 (ADM1021_SYSCTL_REMOTE_TEMP)
Works exactly the same way as 'temp1', but uses an external temperature
probe for the sensing. The temperature probe is of a silicon diode type
and not of a thermal-resistive type. A probe can easily be made from a
common transister (see the ADM1021 for qualification specs) by shorting
the base to the collector. From the docs: "Transistors such as 2N3904,
2N3906 or equivalents in SOT-23 package are suitable to use."
The data for each chip is updated each 1.5 seconds, but only if it is
actually read. And, any alarms triggered between reads which always be
present in the next read just after the alarm was triggered (regardless if
the alarm situation has been resolved or not).
