15 | Description | |
16 | ----------- | |
17 | ||
18 | The MAX1619 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as | |
19 | well as the temperature of up to one external diode. | |
20 | ||
21 | All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution | |
22 | is 1.0 degree for the local temperature and for the remote temperature. | |
23 | ||
24 | Only the external sensor has high and low limits. | |
25 | ||
26 | The max1619 driver will not update its values more frequently than every | |
27 | other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return | |
28 | 'old' values. | |
