15
16* reset boolean
17 (default 0)
18 Use 'reset=1' to reset the chip (via index 0x40, bit 7). The default
19 behavior is no chip reset to preserve BIOS settings

22Description
23-----------
24
25This driver implements support for Winbond W83L786NG/W83L786NR chips.
26
27The driver implements two temperature sensors, two fan rotation speed
28sensors, and three voltage sensors.
29
30Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is 1
31degC for temp1 and temp2.
32
33Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). Fan readings
34readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
35or 128 for fan 1/2) to give the readings more range or accuracy.
36
37Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts.
38An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum
39or maximum limit.
