  9. Description
  10. -----------
  11. LTC2990 is a Quad I2C Voltage, Current and Temperature Monitor.
  12. The chip's inputs can measure 4 voltages, or two inputs together (1+2 and 3+4)
  13. can be combined to measure a differential voltage, which is typically used to
  14. measure current through a series resistor, or a temperature.
  15. This driver currently uses the 2x differential mode only. In order to support
  16. other modes, the driver will need to be expanded.
  17. Usage Notes
  18. -----------
  19. This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
  20. devices explicitly.
  21. Sysfs attributes
  22. ----------------
  23. The "curr*_input" measurements actually report the voltage drop across the
  24. input pins in microvolts. This is equivalent to the current through a 1mOhm
  25. sense resistor. Divide the reported value by the actual sense resistor value
  26. in mOhm to get the actual value.
  27. in0_input Voltage at Vcc pin in millivolt (range 2.5V to 5V)
  28. temp1_input Internal chip temperature in millidegrees Celcius
  29. curr1_input Current in mA across v1-v2 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor.
  30. curr2_input Current in mA across v3-v4 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor.
