20.Dt ADMTEMP 4
21.Os
22.Sh NAME
23.Nm admtemp
24.Nd Analog Devices ADM1021 temperature sensor
25.Sh SYNOPSIS
26.Cd "admtemp* at iic? addr 0x18"
27.Sh DESCRIPTION
28The
29.Nm
30driver provides support for the Analog Devices ADM1021,
31Analog Devices ADM1023, Analog Devices ADM1032, Genesys Logic GL523SM,
32Global Mixed-mode Technology G781, Texas Instruments LM84, Maxim 1617,
33Maxim 1617A, Philips Semiconductors NE1617A, and Xeon embedded temperature
34sensors.
35The device possesses internal and external temperature sensors, and
36programmable low and high temperature limits, with a temperature range of
37-65 to +127 degC and a resolution of 1 degC.
38.Pp
39On i386 machines, this driver also supports the Xeon embedded
40I2C temperature probes.
41In this case, however, only one temperature value is provided.
42.Pp
43Exceeding the temperature limits causes the device to assert an Alarm signal,
44which can be used by other hardware to detect critical conditions.
45.Pp
46Some sensors differ from the ADM1021, MAX1617 and NE1617A:
47.Bl -item -offset indent
48.It
49The ADM1021A, ADM1023, ADM1032, and G781 have a temperature range of 0 to
50+127 degC and a resolution of 1 degC.
51.It
52The LM84 has no low temperature limits.
53.It
54The ADM1023, ADM1032, and G781 have extended precision remote temperature
55sensors, with a range of 0 to +127.875 degC and a resolution of 0.125 degC.
56.It
57The ADM1032 and G781 have additional high temperature limits with a range of
580 to +127 degC and a resolution of 1 degC.
59If these are exceeded, a separate Therm signal is asserted.
60.El
61.Pp
62The sensor and limit values are made available through the
63.Xr envstat 8
64interface.
65For devices without additional high temperature limits, the limits that are
66displayed and set are the critical limits.
67For devices with additional high temperature limits, high and low temperature
68warning limits and high temperature critical limits are displayed and can be
69set.

76The
77.Nm
78driver was written by
79.An Theo de Raadt Aq Mt deraadt@openbsd.org .
80Extended precision temperatures, and limit display and setting were added by
81.An Julian Coleman Aq Mt jdc@NetBSD.org .
82.Sh BUGS
83Limit sensors occasionally read as 0xff.
84If this occurs, the
85.Nm
86driver will ignore that limit.
