Now that all files were converted to ReST format, rename them
and add an index.

All temperature values are -given in degrees Celsius. - -Measurement Resolution Support ------------------------------- - -The LM73 supports four resolutions, defined in terms of degrees C per -LSB: 0.25, 0.125, 0.0625, and 0.3125. Changing the resolution mode -affects the conversion time of the LM73's analog-to-digital converter. -From userspace, the desired resolution can be specified as a function of -conversion time via the 'update_interval' sysfs attribute for the -device. This attribute will normalize ranges of input values to the -maximum times defined for the resolution in the datasheet. - - ============= ============= ============ - Resolution Conv.

Reading back the -'update_interval' value after a write operation will confirm the -conversion time actively in use. - -Mathematically, the resolution can be derived from the conversion time -via the following function: - - g(x) = 0.250 * [log(x/14) / log(2)] - -where 'x' is the output from 'update_interval' and 'g(x)' is the -resolution in degrees C per LSB. - -Alarm Support -------------- - -The LM73 features a simple over-temperature alarm mechanism. This -feature is exposed via the sysfs attributes. - -The attributes 'temp1_max_alarm' and 'temp1_min_alarm' are flags -provided by the LM73 that indicate whether the measured temperature has -passed the 'temp1_max' and 'temp1_min' thresholds, respectively. These -values _must_ be read to clear the registers on the LM73. |
