Description |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
The LM73 is a digital temperature sensor. All temperature values are |
|
given in degrees Celsius. |
|
|
|
Measurement Resolution Support |
|
------------------------------ |
|
|
|
The LM73 supports four resolutions, defined in terms of degrees C per |
|
LSB: 0.25, 0.125, 0.0625, and 0.3125. Changing the resolution mode |
|
affects the conversion time of the LM73's analog-to-digital converter. |
|
From userspace, the desired resolution can be specified as a function of |
|
conversion time via the 'update_interval' sysfs attribute for the |
|
device. This attribute will normalize ranges of input values to the |
|
maximum times defined for the resolution in the datasheet. |
|
|
|
============= ============= ============ |
|
Resolution Conv. Time Input Range |

|
0.25 14 0..14 |
|
0.125 28 15..28 |
|
0.0625 56 29..56 |
|
0.03125 112 57..infinity |
|
============= ============= ============ |

|
The following examples show how the 'update_interval' attribute can be |
|
used to change the conversion time:: |
|
|
|
$ echo 0 > update_interval |
|
$ cat update_interval |
|
14 |
|
$ cat temp1_input |
|
24250 |
|
|
|
$ echo 22 > update_interval |
|
$ cat update_interval |
|
28 |
|
$ cat temp1_input |
|
24125 |
|
|
|
$ echo 56 > update_interval |
|
$ cat update_interval |
|
56 |
|
$ cat temp1_input |
|
24062 |
|
|
|
$ echo 85 > update_interval |
|
$ cat update_interval |
|
112 |
|
$ cat temp1_input |
|
24031 |
|
|
|
As shown here, the lm73 driver automatically adjusts any user input for |
|
'update_interval' via a step function. Reading back the |
|
'update_interval' value after a write operation will confirm the |
|
conversion time actively in use. |
|
|
|
Mathematically, the resolution can be derived from the conversion time |
|
via the following function: |
|
|
|
g(x) = 0.250 * [log(x/14) / log(2)] |
|
|
|
where 'x' is the output from 'update_interval' and 'g(x)' is the |
|
resolution in degrees C per LSB. |
|
|
|
Alarm Support |
|
------------- |
|
|
|
The LM73 features a simple over-temperature alarm mechanism. This |
|
feature is exposed via the sysfs attributes. |
|
|
|
The attributes 'temp1_max_alarm' and 'temp1_min_alarm' are flags |
|
provided by the LM73 that indicate whether the measured temperature has |
|
passed the 'temp1_max' and 'temp1_min' thresholds, respectively. These |
|
values _must_ be read to clear the registers on the LM73.
