24Description
25-----------
26
27LM95235 and LM95245 are 11-bit digital temperature sensors with a 2-wire System
28Management Bus (SMBus) interface and TruTherm technology that can monitor
29the temperature of a remote diode as well as its own temperature.
30The chips can be used to very accurately monitor the temperature of
31external devices such as microprocessors.
32
33All temperature values are given in millidegrees Celsius. Local temperature
34is given within a range of -127 to +127.875 degrees. Remote temperatures are
35given within a range of -127 to +255 degrees. Resolution depends on
36temperature input and range.
37
38Each sensor has its own critical limit. Additionally, there is a relative
39hysteresis value common to both critical limits. To make life easier to
40user-space applications, two absolute values are exported, one for each
41channel, but these values are of course linked. Only the local hysteresis
42can be set from user-space, and the same delta applies to the remote
43hysteresis.
44
45The lm95245 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values.
46It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact
47values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return
48'old' values.
