Description
-----------
The LM75 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the
Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be
set and read to half-degree accuracy.
An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature
gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until
the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a
range of -55 to +125 degrees.
2013-05-04 16:49:36 +04:00
The driver caches the values for a period varying between 1 second for the
slowest chips and 125 ms for the fastest chips; reading it more often
2005-05-26 16:42:19 +04:00
will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.
2011-10-14 01:15:11 +04:00
The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips
on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones
are now used in various embedded designs.

The LM75 is essentially an industry standard; there may be other
LM75 clones not listed here, with or without various enhancements,
2011-10-14 01:15:11 +04:00
that are supported. The clones are not detected by the driver, unless
they reproduce the exact register tricks of the original LM75, and must
2013-05-04 16:49:36 +04:00
therefore be instantiated explicitly. Higher resolution up to 12-bit
is supported by this driver, other specific enhancements are not.
2005-05-26 16:42:19 +04:00
The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
