31.Dt LM 4
32.Os
33.Sh NAME
34.Nm lm
35.Nd National Semiconductor LM78, LM79 and compatible hardware monitors
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "lm0 at isa? port 0x280 flags 0x00"
38.Cd "lm1 at isa? port 0x290 flags 0x00"
39.Cd "lm2 at isa? port 0x310 flags 0x00"
40.Cd "lm3 at isa? port 0xa00 flags 0x00"
41.Cd "lm0 at pnpbios0 index ? flags 0x00"
42.Cd "lm0 at iic? addr 0x2e flags 0x00"
43.Cd "lm* at wbsio?"
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45The
46.Nm
47driver provides support for the National Semiconductor
48LM series hardware monitors and register compatible chips to be used with
49the
50.Xr envsys 4
51API.
52.Pp
53The original LM78 hardware monitor supports 11 sensors:
54.Bl -column "Sensor" "Units" "Typical" -offset indent
55.It Sy "Sensor" Ta Sy "Units" Ta Sy "Typical Use"
56.It Li "IN0" Ta "uV DC" Ta "Core voltage"
57.It Li "IN1" Ta "uV DC" Ta "unknown"
58.It Li "IN2" Ta "uV DC" Ta "+3.3V"
59.It Li "IN3" Ta "uV DC" Ta "+5V"
60.It Li "IN4" Ta "uV DC" Ta "+12V"
61.It Li "IN5" Ta "uV DC" Ta "-12V"
62.It Li "IN6" Ta "uV DC" Ta "-5V"
63.It Li "Temp" Ta "uK" Ta "Motherboard Temperature"
64.It Li "Fan0" Ta "RPM" Ta "Fan"
65.It Li "Fan1" Ta "RPM" Ta "Chassis Fan"
66.It Li "Fan2" Ta "RPM" Ta "Fan"
67.El
68For other devices, sensors' names and numbers will be different.
69.Pp
70Due to hardware limitations, fresh sensor data is only available every
712 seconds.

130.Sh HISTORY
131The
132.Nm
133device appeared in
134.Nx 1.5 .
135.Sh CAVEATS
136Some vendors connect these chips to non-standard thermal diodes and
137resistors.
138This will result in bogus sensor values.
139.Sh BUGS
140Interrupt support is unimplemented.
141.Pp
142There are currently no known pnpbios IDs assigned to LM chips.
