| Description | |
| ----------- | |
| LTC2990 is a Quad I2C Voltage, Current and Temperature Monitor. | |
| The chip's inputs can measure 4 voltages, or two inputs together (1+2 and 3+4) | |
| can be combined to measure a differential voltage, which is typically used to | |
| measure current through a series resistor, or a temperature. | |
| This driver currently uses the 2x differential mode only. In order to support | |
| other modes, the driver will need to be expanded. | |
| Usage Notes | |
| ----------- | |
| This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate | |
| devices explicitly. | |
| Sysfs attributes | |
| ---------------- | |
| The "curr*_input" measurements actually report the voltage drop across the | |
| input pins in microvolts. This is equivalent to the current through a 1mOhm | |
| sense resistor. Divide the reported value by the actual sense resistor value | |
| in mOhm to get the actual value. | |
| in0_input Voltage at Vcc pin in millivolt (range 2.5V to 5V) | |
| temp1_input Internal chip temperature in millidegrees Celcius | |
| curr1_input Current in mA across v1-v2 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor. | |
| curr2_input Current in mA across v3-v4 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor. |
