25 | ----------- | |
26 | ||
162a8dfe | 27 | LM95235 and LM95245 are 11-bit digital temperature sensors with a 2-wire System |
fffd80cc AS |
28 | Management Bus (SMBus) interface and TruTherm technology that can monitor |
29 | the temperature of a remote diode as well as its own temperature. | |
162a8dfe | 30 | The chips can be used to very accurately monitor the temperature of |
fffd80cc AS |
31 | external devices such as microprocessors. |
32 | ||
33 | All temperature values are given in millidegrees Celsius. Local temperature | |
34 | is given within a range of -127 to +127.875 degrees. Remote temperatures are | |
35 | given within a range of -127 to +255 degrees. Resolution depends on | |
36 | temperature input and range. | |

38 | Each sensor has its own critical limit. Additionally, there is a relative |
39 | hysteresis value common to both critical limits. To make life easier to | |
40 | user-space applications, two absolute values are exported, one for each | |
41 | channel, but these values are of course linked. Only the local hysteresis | |
42 | can be set from user-space, and the same delta applies to the remote | |
43 | hysteresis. | |

45 | The lm95245 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values. | |
46 | It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact | |
47 | values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return | |
48 | 'old' values. |
