- Kernel driver ltc2990
- =====================
- Supported chips:
- * Linear Technology LTC2990
- Prefix: 'ltc2990'
- Addresses scanned: -
- Datasheet: http://www.linear.com/product/ltc2990
- Author: Mike Looijmans <[email protected]>
- Description
- -----------
- LTC2990 is a Quad I2C Voltage, Current and Temperature Monitor.
- The chip's inputs can measure 4 voltages, or two inputs together (1+2 and 3+4)
- can be combined to measure a differential voltage, which is typically used to
- measure current through a series resistor, or a temperature.
- This driver currently uses the 2x differential mode only. In order to support
- other modes, the driver will need to be expanded.
- Usage Notes
- -----------
- This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
- devices explicitly.
- Sysfs attributes
- ----------------
- The "curr*_input" measurements actually report the voltage drop across the
- input pins in microvolts. This is equivalent to the current through a 1mOhm
- sense resistor. Divide the reported value by the actual sense resistor value
- in mOhm to get the actual value.
- in0_input Voltage at Vcc pin in millivolt (range 2.5V to 5V)
- temp1_input Internal chip temperature in millidegrees Celcius
- curr1_input Current in mA across v1-v2 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor.
- curr2_input Current in mA across v3-v4 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor.
