| 17 | Description |
| 18 | ----------- |
| 19 | |
| 20 | LM95233 and LM95234 are 11-bit digital temperature sensors with a 2-wire |
| 21 | System Management Bus (SMBus) interface and TrueTherm technology |
| 22 | that can very accurately monitor the temperature of two (LM95233) |
| 23 | or four (LM95234) remote diodes as well as its own temperature. |
| 24 | The remote diodes can be external devices such as microprocessors, |
| 25 | graphics processors or diode-connected 2N3904s. The chip's TruTherm |
| 26 | beta compensation technology allows sensing of 90 nm or 65 nm process |
| 27 | thermal diodes accurately. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | All temperature values are given in millidegrees Celsius. Temperature |
| 30 | is provided within a range of -127 to +255 degrees (+127.875 degrees for |
| 31 | the internal sensor). Resolution depends on temperature input and range. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Each sensor has its own maximum limit, but the hysteresis is common to all |
| 34 | channels. The hysteresis is configurable with the tem1_max_hyst attribute and |
| 35 | affects the hysteresis on all channels. The first two external sensors also |
| 36 | have a critical limit. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | The lm95234 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values. |
| 39 | It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact |
| 40 | values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return |
| 41 | 'old' values. |
