| Description |
| ----------- |
| |
| This driver implements support for the Maxim 6650/6651 |
| |
| The 2 devices are very similar, but the Maxim 6550 has a reduced feature |
| set, e.g. only one fan-input, instead of 4 for the 6651. |
| |
| The driver is not able to distinguish between the 2 devices. |
| |
| The driver provides the following sensor accesses in sysfs: |
| |
| fan1_input ro fan tachometer speed in RPM |
| fan2_input ro " |
| fan3_input ro " |
| fan4_input ro " |
| fan1_target rw desired fan speed in RPM (closed loop mode only) |
| pwm1_enable rw regulator mode, 0=full on, 1=open loop, 2=closed loop |
| pwm1 rw relative speed (0-255), 255=max. speed. |
| Used in open loop mode only. |
| fan1_div rw sets the speed range the inputs can handle. Legal |
| values are 1, 2, 4, and 8. Use lower values for |
| faster fans. |
| |
| Module parameters |
| ----------------- |
| |
| If your board has a BIOS that initializes the MAX6650/6651 correctly, you can |
| simply load your module without parameters. It won't touch the configuration |
| registers then. If your board BIOS doesn't initialize the chip, or you want |
| different settings, you can set the following parameters: |
| |
| voltage_12V: 5=5V fan, 12=12V fan, 0=don't change |
| prescaler: Possible values are 1,2,4,8,16, or 0 for don't change |
| clock: The clock frequency in Hz of the chip the driver should assume [254000] |
| |
| Please have a look at the MAX6650/6651 data sheet and make sure that you fully |
| understand the meaning of these parameters before you attempt to change them. |
