21 | Description | ||
22 | ----------- | ||
23 | |||
24 | This driver implements support for Texas Instruments TMP421, TMP422 | ||
25 | and TMP423 temperature sensor chips. These chips implement one local | ||
26 | and up to one (TMP421), up to two (TMP422) or up to three (TMP423) | ||
27 | remote sensors. Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius. The chips | ||
28 | are wired over I2C/SMBus and specified over a temperature range of -40 | ||
29 | to +125 degrees Celsius. Resolution for both the local and remote | ||
30 | channels is 0.0625 degree C. | ||
31 | |||
32 | The chips support only temperature measurement. The driver exports | ||
33 | the temperature values via the following sysfs files: | ||
34 | |||
35 | temp[1-4]_input | ||
36 | temp[2-4]_fault | ||
