38 This driver implements support for the hardware monitoring capabilities of the
39 SMSC DME1737 and Asus A8000 (which are the same), SMSC SCH5027, and SMSC
40 SCH311x Super-I/O chips. These chips feature monitoring of 3 temp sensors
41 temp[1-3] (2 remote diodes and 1 internal), 7 voltages in[0-6] (6 external and
42 1 internal) and up to 6 fan speeds fan[1-6]. Additionally, the chips implement
43 up to 5 PWM outputs pwm[1-3,5-6] for controlling fan speeds both manually and
46 For the DME1737, A8000 and SCH5027, fan[1-2] and pwm[1-2] are always present.
47 Fan[3-6] and pwm[3,5-6] are optional features and their availability depends on
48 the configuration of the chip. The driver will detect which features are
49 present during initialization and create the sysfs attributes accordingly.
51 For the SCH311x, fan[1-3] and pwm[1-3] are always present and fan[4-6] and
54 The hardware monitoring features of the DME1737, A8000, and SCH5027 are only
55 accessible via SMBus, while the SCH311x only provides access via the ISA bus.
56 The driver will therefore register itself as an I2C client driver if it detects
57 a DME1737, A8000, or SCH5027 and as a platform driver if it detects a SCH311x
64 The voltage inputs are sampled with 12-bit resolution and have internal
65 scaling resistors. The values returned by the driver therefore reflect true
66 millivolts and don't need scaling. The voltage inputs are mapped as follows
67 (the last column indicates the input ranges):
70 in0: +5VTR (+5V standby) 0V - 6.64V
71 in1: Vccp (processor core) 0V - 3V
72 in2: VCC (internal +3.3V) 0V - 4.38V
75 in5: VTR (+3.3V standby) 0V - 4.38V
76 in6: Vbat (+3.0V) 0V - 4.38V
80 in1: Vccp (processor core) 0V - 2V
81 in2: VCC (internal +3.3V) 0V - 4.38V
84 in5: VTR (+3.3V standby) 0V - 4.38V
85 in6: Vbat (+3.0V) 0V - 4.38V
88 in0: +5VTR (+5V standby) 0V - 6.64V

93 in5: VTR (+3.3V standby) 0V - 4.38V
94 in6: Vbat (+3.0V) 0V - 4.38V
96 Each voltage input has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm
100 Temperature Monitoring
101 ----------------------
103 Temperatures are measured with 12-bit resolution and reported in millidegree
104 Celsius. The chip also features offsets for all 3 temperature inputs which -
105 when programmed - get added to the input readings. The chip does all the
106 scaling by itself and the driver therefore reports true temperatures that don't
107 need any user-space adjustments. The temperature inputs are mapped as follows
108 (the last column indicates the input ranges):
110 temp1: Remote diode 1 (3904 type) temperature -127C - +127C
111 temp2: DME1737 internal temperature -127C - +127C
112 temp3: Remote diode 2 (3904 type) temperature -127C - +127C
114 Each temperature input has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm
115 when crossed. Additionally, each temperature input has a fault attribute that
116 returns 1 when a faulty diode or an unconnected input is detected and 0
123 Fan RPMs are measured with 16-bit resolution. The chip provides inputs for 6
124 fan tachometers. All 6 inputs have an associated min limit which triggers an
125 alarm when crossed. Fan inputs 1-4 provide type attributes that need to be set
126 to the number of pulses per fan revolution that the connected tachometer
127 generates. Supported values are 1, 2, and 4. Fan inputs 5-6 only support fans
128 that generate 2 pulses per revolution. Fan inputs 5-6 also provide a max
129 attribute that needs to be set to the maximum attainable RPM (fan at 100% duty-
130 cycle) of the input. The chip adjusts the sampling rate based on this value.
136 This chip features 5 PWM outputs. PWM outputs 1-3 are associated with fan
137 inputs 1-3 and PWM outputs 5-6 are associated with fan inputs 5-6. PWM outputs
138 1-3 can be configured to operate either in manual or automatic mode by setting
139 the appropriate enable attribute accordingly. PWM outputs 5-6 can only operate
140 in manual mode, their enable attributes are therefore read-only. When set to
141 manual mode, the fan speed is set by writing the duty-cycle value to the
142 appropriate PWM attribute. In automatic mode, the PWM attribute returns the
143 current duty-cycle as set by the fan controller in the chip. All PWM outputs
144 support the setting of the output frequency via the freq attribute.
146 In automatic mode, the chip supports the setting of the PWM ramp rate which
147 defines how fast the PWM output is adjusting to changes of the associated
148 temperature input. Associating PWM outputs to temperature inputs is done via
149 temperature zones. The chip features 3 zones whose assignments to temperature
150 inputs is static and determined during initialization. These assignments can
151 be retrieved via the zone[1-3]_auto_channels_temp attributes. Each PWM output
152 is assigned to one (or hottest of multiple) temperature zone(s) through the
153 pwm[1-3]_auto_channels_zone attributes. Each PWM output has 3 distinct output
154 duty-cycles: full, low, and min. Full is internally hard-wired to 255 (100%)
155 and low and min can be programmed via pwm[1-3]_auto_point1_pwm and
156 pwm[1-3]_auto_pwm_min, respectively. The thermal thresholds of the zones are
157 programmed via zone[1-3]_auto_point[1-3]_temp and
158 zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp_hyst:
160 pwm[1-3]_auto_point2_pwm full-speed duty-cycle (255, i.e., 100%)
161 pwm[1-3]_auto_point1_pwm low-speed duty-cycle
162 pwm[1-3]_auto_pwm_min min-speed duty-cycle
164 zone[1-3]_auto_point3_temp full-speed temp (all outputs)
165 zone[1-3]_auto_point2_temp full-speed temp
166 zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp low-speed temp
167 zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp_hyst min-speed temp
169 The chip adjusts the output duty-cycle linearly in the range of auto_point1_pwm
170 to auto_point2_pwm if the temperature of the associated zone is between
171 auto_point1_temp and auto_point2_temp. If the temperature drops below the
172 auto_point1_temp_hyst value, the output duty-cycle is set to the auto_pwm_min
173 value which only supports two values: 0 or auto_point1_pwm. That means that the
174 fan either turns completely off or keeps spinning with the low-speed
175 duty-cycle. If any of the temperatures rise above the auto_point3_temp value,
176 all PWM outputs are set to 100% duty-cycle.
178 Following is another representation of how the chip sets the output duty-cycle
179 based on the temperature of the associated thermal zone:
181 Duty-Cycle Duty-Cycle
182 Temperature Rising Temp Falling Temp
183 ----------- ----------- ------------
184 full-speed full-speed full-speed
186 < linearly adjusted duty-cycle >
188 low-speed low-speed low-speed
190 min-speed min-speed min-speed
