Description
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC) 47M1xx Super I/O chips
 | 
						|
contain monitoring and PWM control circuitry for two fans.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The LPC47M15x, LPC47M192 and LPC47M292 chips contain a full 'hardware
 | 
						|
monitoring block' in addition to the fan monitoring and control. The
 | 
						|
hardware monitoring block is not supported by this driver, use the
 | 
						|
smsc47m192 driver for that.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
No documentation is available for the 47M997, but it has the same device
 | 
						|
ID as the 47M15x and 47M192 chips and seems to be compatible.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
 | 
						|
triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
 | 
						|
readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give
 | 
						|
the readings more range or accuracy. Not all RPM values can accurately be
 | 
						|
represented, so some rounding is done. With a divider of 2, the lowest
 | 
						|
representable value is around 2600 RPM.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
PWM values are from 0 to 255.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If an alarm triggers, it will remain triggered until the hardware register
 | 
						|
is read at least once. This means that the cause for the alarm may
 | 
						|
already have disappeared! Note that in the current implementation, all
 | 
						|
hardware registers are read whenever any data is read (unless it is less
 | 
						|
than 1.5 seconds since the last update). This means that you can easily
 | 
						|
miss once-only alarms.
