lm-sensors chip support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm in a project which is looking at using lm-sensors to monitor the
following chips on various circuit boards:

- ADM1032ARMZ (temp sensor)
- MAX6639 (temp sensor)
- POWR1014A (power monitor)
- SA56004EDP (temp sensor)

I cross-checked these against the lm-sensors list of supported chips
(http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices) and find that only the 1st one
is supported.  

Do you know if there are any plans to develop support for the latter 3
in the list?  Or, are any of these compatible with another chip that is
supported?  

If there are no plans and no compatibilities, is there documentation you
can point me to that describes a framework for adding a driver to be
supported by lm-sensors.  I'd like to consider this if this is not
difficult.  

As I understand it, there is no chip-specific code in lm-sensors; to add
support, one must add driver code into the kernel itself (ie. no code is
added to the lm-sensors domain).  Is this correct?  Is there an example
of a driver that was supported recently that I can use as an
example/framework?

Thanks for your help,
...Rob
