Please see +Documentation/hwmon/pmbus and Documentation.hwmon/pmbus-core for details +on PMBus client drivers. + + +Usage Notes +----------- + +This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the +devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for +details. + +WARNING: Do not access chip registers using the i2cdump command, and do not use +any of the i2ctools commands on a command register used to save and restore +configuration data (0x11, 0x12, 0x15, 0x16, and 0xf4). The chips supported by +this driver interpret any access to those command registers (including read +commands) as request to execute the command in question. Unless write accesses +to those registers are protected, this may result in power loss, board resets, +and/or Flash corruption. Worst case, your board may turn into a brick. + + +Platform data support +--------------------- + +The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data. + + +Module parameters +----------------- + +delay +----- + +Some Intersil/Zilker Labs DC-DC controllers require a minimum interval between +I2C bus accesses. According to Intersil, the minimum interval is 2 ms, though +1 ms appears to be sufficient and has not caused any problems in testing. +The problem is known to affect ZL6100, ZL2105, and ZL2008. It is known not to +affect ZL2004 and ZL6105. The driver automatically sets the interval to 1 ms +except for ZL2004 and ZL6105. To enable manual override, the driver provides a +writeable module parameter, 'delay', which can be used to set the interval to +a value between 0 and 65,535 microseconds. + + +Sysfs entries +------------- + +The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other +attributes are read-only. + +in1_label "vin" +in1_input Measured input voltage. +in1_min Minimum input voltage. +in1_max Maximum input voltage. +in1_lcrit Critical minumum input voltage. +in1_crit Critical maximum input voltage. +in1_min_alarm Input voltage low alarm. +in1_max_alarm Input voltage high alarm. +in1_lcrit_alarm Input voltage critical low alarm. +in1_crit_alarm Input voltage critical high alarm. + +in2_label "vout1" +in2_input Measured output voltage. +in2_lcrit Critical minumum output Voltage. +in2_crit Critical maximum output voltage. +in2_lcrit_alarm Critical output voltage critical low alarm. +in2_crit_alarm Critical output voltage critical high alarm. + +curr1_label "iout1" +curr1_input Measured output current. +curr1_lcrit Critical minimum output current. +curr1_crit Critical maximum output current. +curr1_lcrit_alarm Output current critical low alarm. +curr1_crit_alarm Output current critical high alarm. + +temp[12]_input Measured temperature. +temp[12]_min Minimum temperature. +temp[12]_max Maximum temperature. +temp[12]_lcrit Critical low temperature. +temp[12]_crit Critical high temperature. +temp[12]_min_alarm Chip temperature low alarm. +temp[12]_max_alarm Chip temperature high alarm. +temp[12]_lcrit_alarm Chip temperature critical low alarm. +temp[12]_crit_alarm Chip temperature critical high alarm. |
