An alarm is +triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan +readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give +the readings more range or accuracy. Not all RPM values can accurately be +represented, so some rounding is done. With a divider of 1, the lowest +representable value is 480 RPM. + +This driver supports RPM based control, to use this a fan target +should be written to fan1_target and pwm1_enable should be set to 3. + +The 2103-2 and 2103-4 variants have a third temperature sensor, which can +be connected to two anti-parallel diodes. These values can be read +as temp3 and temp4. If only one diode is attached to this channel, temp4 +will show as "fault". The module parameter "apd=0" can be used to suppress +this 4th channel when anti-parallel diodes are not fitted. diff --git a/Documentation/hwmon/ltc4245 b/Documentation/hwmon/ltc4245 index 86b5880d8502..b478b0864965 100644 --- a/Documentation/hwmon/ltc4245 +++ b/Documentation/hwmon/ltc4245 @@ -72,9 +72,31 @@ in6_min_alarm 5v output undervoltage alarm in7_min_alarm 3v output undervoltage alarm in8_min_alarm Vee (-12v) output undervoltage alarm -in9_input GPIO voltage data +in9_input GPIO voltage data (see note 1) +in10_input GPIO voltage data (see note 1) +in11_input GPIO voltage data (see note 1) power1_input 12v power usage (mW) power2_input 5v power usage (mW) power3_input 3v power usage (mW) power4_input Vee (-12v) power usage (mW) + + +Note 1 +------ + +If you have NOT configured the driver to sample all GPIO pins as analog +voltages, then the in10_input and in11_input sysfs attributes will not be +created.
