13Description
14-----------
15
16The Texas Instruments TMP108 implements one temperature sensor. An alert pin
17can be set when temperatures exceed minimum or maximum values plus or minus a
18hysteresis value. (This driver does not support interrupts for the alert pin,
19and the device runs in comparator mode.)
20
21The sensor is accurate to 0.75C over the range of -25 to +85 C, and to 1.0
22degree from -40 to +125 C. Resolution of the sensor is 0.0625 degree. The
23operating temperature has a minimum of -55 C and a maximum of +150 C.
24Hysteresis values can be set to 0, 1, 2, or 4C.
25
26The TMP108 has a programmable update rate that can select between 8, 4, 1, and
270.5 Hz.
28
29By default the TMP108 reads the temperature continuously. To conserve power,
30the TMP108 has a one-shot mode where the device is normally shut-down. When a
31one shot is requested the temperature is read, the result can be retrieved,
32and then the device is shut down automatically. (This driver only supports
33continuous mode.)
34
35The driver provides the common sysfs-interface for temperatures (see
36Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface under Temperatures).
