Description
|
-----------
|
|
LTC2990 is a Quad I2C Voltage, Current and Temperature Monitor.
|
The chip's inputs can measure 4 voltages, or two inputs together (1+2 and 3+4)
|
can be combined to measure a differential voltage, which is typically used to
|
measure current through a series resistor, or a temperature with an external
|
diode.
|
|
|
Usage Notes
|
-----------
|
|
This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
|
devices explicitly.

Sysfs attributes
|
----------------
|
|
============= ==================================================
|
in0_input Voltage at Vcc pin in millivolt (range 2.5V to 5V)
|
temp1_input Internal chip temperature in millidegrees Celsius
|
============= ==================================================
|
|
A subset of the following attributes are visible, depending on the measurement
|
mode of the chip.
|
|
============= ==========================================================
|
in[1-4]_input Voltage at V[1-4] pin in millivolt
|
temp2_input External temperature sensor TR1 in millidegrees Celsius
|
temp3_input External temperature sensor TR2 in millidegrees Celsius
|
curr1_input Current in mA across V1-V2 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor
|
curr2_input Current in mA across V3-V4 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor
|
============= ==========================================================
|
|
The "curr*_input" measurements actually report the voltage drop across the
|
input pins in microvolts. This is equivalent to the current through a 1mOhm
|
sense resistor. Divide the reported value by the actual sense resistor value
|
in mOhm to get the actual value.
