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 Celcius
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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 Celcius
 | 
						|
temp3_input   External temperature sensor TR2 in millidegrees Celcius
 | 
						|
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.
