				58	Description
				59	-----------
				60
				61	The LM75 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the
				62	Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be
				63	set and read to half-degree accuracy.
				64	An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature
				65	gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until
				66	the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
				67	All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a
				68	range of -55 to +125 degrees.
				69
				70	The LM75 only updates its values each 1.5 seconds; reading it more often
				71	will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.
				72
Jean Delvare	426343e	2011-10-13 17:15:11 -0400	[diff] [blame]	73	The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips
				74	on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones
				75	are now used in various embedded designs.

				77	The LM75 is essentially an industry standard; there may be other
				78	LM75 clones not listed here, with or without various enhancements,
Jean Delvare	426343e	2011-10-13 17:15:11 -0400	[diff] [blame]	79	that are supported. The clones are not detected by the driver, unless
				80	they reproduce the exact register tricks of the original LM75, and must
				81	therefore be instantiated explicitly. The specific enhancements (such as
				82	higher resolution) are not currently supported by the driver.
R.Marek@sh.cvut.cz	7f15b66	2005-05-26 12:42:19 +0000	[diff] [blame]	83
				84	The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
				85	Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
