39Description
40-----------
41
42This driver implements support for several MAX6697 compatible temperature sensor
43chips. The chips support one local temperature sensor plus four, six, or seven
44remote temperature sensors. Remote temperature sensors are diode-connected
45thermal transitors, except for MAX6698 which supports three diode-connected
46thermal transistors plus three thermistors in addition to the local temperature
47sensor.
48
49The driver provides the following sysfs attributes. temp1 is the local (chip)
50temperature, temp[2..n] are remote temperatures. The actually supported
51per-channel attributes are chip type and channel dependent.
52
53tempX_input RO temperature
54tempX_max RW temperature maximum threshold
55tempX_max_alarm RO temperature maximum threshold alarm
56tempX_crit RW temperature critical threshold
57tempX_crit_alarm RO temperature critical threshold alarm
58tempX_fault RO temperature diode fault (remote sensors only)
