Hi all, As already explained my student (Hans Edgington), has returned the Epox motherboard to school and now I'm working on cleaning up his driver and adding missing features. The temp sensors in this chip have an OVT (over temperature) and a high temperature limit, both have a shared hysteresis. This hysteresis is a true hysteresis. When a temp is over either limit a flag gets set, when it gets below limit-hysteresis the flag gets cleared again. I've been digging through the datasheets to try and find the differences between the 2 limits. Both limits have flags, can cause interrupts and PME events. The main difference seems to be OVT Output Enable Register 1 Index 66h at page 75 of the datasheet: http://www.fintek.com.tw/files/productfiles/F71882_V0.24P.pdf The high limit has alert events coupled to its, which can not be enabled (read only). Where as the ovt has an over temperature (OVT) mechanism, which can be enabled and is active for the CPU temp by default, the OVT mechanism, has an output pin reserved which it can control when an OVT conditions happens. The high limit can be coupled to forcing fans to go full speed. To me this sounds like the high limit should be mapped to temp#_max and the OVT to temp#_crit, and since the hyst is for both limits it should be temp#_hyst. Does this sound like a plan? Regards, Hans
