SYNOPSIS

lm0 at isa? port 0x290
lm1 at isa? port 0x280
lm2 at isa? port 0x310
lm* at iic?
lm* at wbsio?

DESCRIPTION

The lm driver provides support for the National Semiconductor LM78/79/81 hardware monitors and register compatible chips to be used with the sysctl(8) interface.

The original LM78 hardware monitor supports 11 sensors:

Sensor	Units	Typical Use
IN0	uV DC	Core voltage
IN1	uV DC	Unknown
IN2	uV DC	+3.3V
IN3	uV DC	+5V
IN4	uV DC	+12V
IN5	uV DC	-12V
IN6	uV DC	-5V
Temp	uK	Motherboard Temperature
Fan0	RPM	Fan
Fan1	RPM	Chassis Fan
Fan2	RPM	Fan

For other devices, sensors' names and numbers will be different.

HARDWARE

Chips supported by the lm driver include:

• ASUS AS99127F
• National Semiconductor LM78 and LM78-J
• National Semiconductor LM79
• National Semiconductor LM81
• Nuvoton NCT6776F
• Winbond W83627HF, W83627THF, W83637HF and W83697HF
• Winbond W83627DHG, W83627UHG and W83627EHF
• Winbond W83781D, W83782D and W83783S
• Winbond W83791D, W83791SD and W83792D

Some devices can attach to both iic(4) and isa(4); others can only attach to either one or the other. If the lm driver detects a device attaching to both iic(4) and isa(4), it will detach the device from iic(4).

HISTORY

The lm driver first appeared in NetBSD 1.5; OpenBSD support was added in OpenBSD 3.4.

AUTHORS

The lm driver was written by Bill Squier and ported to OpenBSD 3.4 by Alexander Yurchenko <grange@openbsd.org>. The driver was largely rewritten for OpenBSD 3.9 by Mark Kettenis <kettenis@openbsd.org>.

CAVEATS

Some vendors connect these chips to non-standard thermal diodes and resistors. This will result in bogus sensor values.

BUGS

Interrupt support is unimplemented.

There are currently no known pnpbios IDs assigned to LM chips.

This driver attaches to the Winbond W83791SD chip even though that chip does not have any sensors.
