15 | Description | ||
16 | ----------- | ||
17 | |||
18 | The DS620 is a (one instance) digital thermometer and thermostat. It has both | ||
19 | high and low temperature limits which can be user defined (i.e. programmed | ||
20 | into non-volatile on-chip registers). Temperature range is -55 degree Celsius | ||
21 | to +125. Between 0 and 70 degree Celsius, accuracy is 0.5 Kelvin. The value | ||
22 | returned via sysfs displays post decimal positions. | ||
23 | |||
24 | The thermostat function works as follows: When configured via platform_data | ||
25 | (struct ds620_platform_data) .pomode == 0 (default), the thermostat output pin | ||
26 | PO is always low. If .pomode == 1, the thermostat is in PO_LOW mode. I.e., the | ||
27 | output pin PO becomes active when the temperature falls below temp1_min and | ||
28 | stays active until the temperature goes above temp1_max. | ||
29 | |||
30 | Likewise, with .pomode == 2, the thermostat is in PO_HIGH mode. I.e., the PO | ||
31 | output pin becomes active when the temperature goes above temp1_max and stays | ||
32 | active until the temperature falls below temp1_min. | ||
33 | |||
34 | The PO output pin of the DS620 operates active-low. | ||
