| 29 | Description |
| 30 | ----------- |
| 31 | |
| 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) |
| 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 |
| 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. |
