Go ahead and try i2cdump on one of your eeproms 'i2cdump 0 0x52' and you'll see that the output is very different. >Any ideas? > > > Yes, but without the data sheet it's just speculation... I would say that you appear to have 6 voltage sensors (0x20-25), and 6 temperature sensors (as you said previously, 0x26-2b). I'm going to guess that you have five (5) 16-bit fan speed sensors (0x2c-35). The device ID signature registers are probably 0x3e (value 0x5c) and 0x3f (value 0xb1) The min/max limits for the voltages probably start at 0x4a through 0x55. Then the limits for the temperatures (0x56-0x61) and fan speeds (0x62-0x6b). I would guess that the rest of the registers are perhaps fan speed control or some other features on the chip. Hopefully they are described in the datasheet. If that's correct, then we just need to know what the scaling values are for the voltages and the fan speed equation. And your temperatures are: 2d = 45 degC 17 = 23 degC 31 = 49 degC 1b = 27 degC 16 = 22 degC 22 = 34 degC If that's right, the temperatures appear to be rather low. Do you have this machine in a cooled computer room? Thanks, :v)
