93Implementation Details
94----------------------
95
96Future driver development should bear in mind that the following registers have
97different functions on the 627EHF and the 627DHG. Some registers also have
98different power-on default values, but BIOS should already be loading
99appropriate defaults. Note that bank selection must be performed as is currently
100done in the driver for all register addresses.
101
1020x49: only on DHG, selects temperature source for AUX fan, CPU fan0
1030x4a: not completely documented for the EHF and the DHG documentation assigns
104 different behavior to bits 7 and 6, including extending the temperature
105 input selection to SmartFan I, not just SmartFan III. Testing on the EHF
106 will reveal whether they are compatible or not.
107
1080x58: Chip ID: 0xa1=EHF 0xc1=DHG
1090x5e: only on DHG, has bits to enable "current mode" temperature detection and
110 critical temperature protection
1110x45b: only on EHF, bit 3, vin4 alarm (EHF supports 10 inputs, only 9 on DHG)
1120x552: only on EHF, vin4
1130x558: only on EHF, vin4 high limit
1140x559: only on EHF, vin4 low limit
1150x6b: only on DHG, SYS fan critical temperature
1160x6c: only on DHG, CPU fan0 critical temperature
1170x6d: only on DHG, AUX fan critical temperature
1180x6e: only on DHG, CPU fan1 critical temperature
119
1200x50-0x55 and 0x650-0x657 are marked "Test Register" for the EHF, but "Reserved
121 Register" for the DHG
122
123The DHG also supports PECI, where the DHG queries Intel CPU temperatures, and
124the ICH8 southbridge gets that data via PECI from the DHG, so that the
125southbridge drives the fans. And the DHG supports SST, a one-wire serial bus.
