20From the datasheet:
21
22"The EMC6W201 is an environmental monitoring device with automatic fan
23control capability and enhanced system acoustics for noise suppression.
24This ACPI compliant device provides hardware monitoring for up to six
25voltages (including its own VCC) and five external thermal sensors,
26measures the speed of up to five fans, and controls the speed of
27multiple DC fans using three Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) outputs. Note
28that it is possible to control more than three fans by connecting two
29fans to one PWM output. The EMC6W201 will be available in a 36-pin
30QFN package."

32The device is functionally close to the EMC6D100 series, but is
33register-incompatible.
34
35The driver currently only supports the monitoring of the voltages,
36temperatures and fan speeds. Limits can be changed. Alarms are not
37supported, and neither is fan speed control.
