d8d2ee07 JD |
32 | This driver implements support for the Analog Devices ADT7473, ADT7475, |
33 | ADT7476 and ADT7490 chip family. The ADT7473 and ADT7475 differ only in | |
34 | minor details. The ADT7476 has additional features, including extra voltage | |
35 | measurement inputs and VID support. The ADT7490 also has additional | |
36 | features, including extra voltage measurement inputs and PECI support. All | |
37 | the supported chips will be collectively designed by the name "ADT747x" in | |
38 | the rest of this document. | |

39 | |
40 | The ADT747x uses the 2-wire interface compatible with the SMBus 2.0 | |
41 | specification. Using an analog to digital converter it measures three (3) | |
3d849981 JD |
42 | temperatures and two (2) or more voltages. It has four (4) 16-bit counters |
43 | for measuring fan speed. There are three (3) PWM outputs that can be used | |
f890c6a3 JD |
44 | to control fan speed. |
45 | ||
46 | A sophisticated control system for the PWM outputs is designed into the | |
47 | ADT747x that allows fan speed to be adjusted automatically based on any of the | |
48 | three temperature sensors. Each PWM output is individually adjustable and | |
49 | programmable. Once configured, the ADT747x will adjust the PWM outputs in | |
50 | response to the measured temperatures without further host intervention. | |
51 | This feature can also be disabled for manual control of the PWM's. | |
52 | ||
53 | Each of the measured inputs (voltage, temperature, fan speed) has | |
54 | corresponding high/low limit values. The ADT747x will signal an ALARM if | |
55 | any measured value exceeds either limit. | |
56 | ||
57 | The ADT747x samples all inputs continuously. The driver will not read | |
58 | the registers more often than once every other second. Further, | |
59 | configuration data is only read once per minute. | |

82 | Special Features |
83 | ---------------- | |
84 | ||
85 | The ADT747x has a 10-bit ADC and can therefore measure temperatures | |
86 | with a resolution of 0.25 degree Celsius. Temperature readings can be | |
87 | configured either for two's complement format or "Offset 64" format, | |
88 | wherein 64 is subtracted from the raw value to get the temperature value. | |
89 | ||
90 | The datasheet is very detailed and describes a procedure for determining | |
91 | an optimal configuration for the automatic PWM control. | |
92 | ||
93 | Fan Speed Control | |
94 | ----------------- | |
95 | ||
96 | The driver exposes two trip points per PWM channel. | |
97 | ||
98 | point1: Set the PWM speed at the lower temperature bound | |
99 | point2: Set the PWM speed at the higher temperature bound | |
100 | ||
101 | The ADT747x will scale the PWM linearly between the lower and higher PWM | |
102 | speed when the temperature is between the two temperature boundaries. | |
103 | Temperature boundaries are associated to temperature channels rather than | |
104 | PWM outputs, and a given PWM output can be controlled by several temperature | |
105 | channels. As a result, the ADT747x may compute more than one PWM value | |
106 | for a channel at a given time, in which case the maximum value (fastest | |
107 | fan speed) is applied. PWM values range from 0 (off) to 255 (full speed). | |
108 | ||
109 | Fan speed may be set to maximum when the temperature sensor associated with | |
110 | the PWM control exceeds temp#_max. | |

112 | Notes | |
113 | ----- | |
114 | ||
115 | The nVidia binary driver presents an ADT7473 chip via an on-card i2c bus. | |
116 | Unfortunately, they fail to set the i2c adapter class, so this driver may | |
117 | fail to find the chip until the nvidia driver is patched. |
