| Description |
| ----------- |
| |
| The Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC) / Microchip EMC14xx chips |
| contain up to four temperature sensors. EMC14x2 support two sensors |
| (one internal, one external). EMC14x3 support three sensors (one internal, |
| two external), and EMC14x4 support four sensors (one internal, three |
| external). |
| |
| The chips implement three limits for each sensor: low (tempX_min), high |
| (tempX_max) and critical (tempX_crit.) The chips also implement an |
| hysteresis mechanism which applies to all limits. The relative difference |
| is stored in a single register on the chip, which means that the relative |
| difference between the limit and its hysteresis is always the same for |
| all three limits. |
| |
| This implementation detail implies the following: |
| * When setting a limit, its hysteresis will automatically follow, the |
| difference staying unchanged. For example, if the old critical limit |
| was 80 degrees C, and the hysteresis was 75 degrees C, and you change |
| the critical limit to 90 degrees C, then the hysteresis will |
| automatically change to 85 degrees C. |
| * The hysteresis values can't be set independently. We decided to make |
| only temp1_crit_hyst writable, while all other hysteresis attributes |
| are read-only. Setting temp1_crit_hyst writes the difference between |
| temp1_crit_hyst and temp1_crit into the chip, and the same relative |
| hysteresis applies automatically to all other limits. |
| * The limits should be set before the hysteresis. |
