1 Kernel driver sch5627 2 ===================== 3 4 Supported chips: 5 * SMSC SCH5627 6 Prefix: 'sch5627' 7 Addresses scanned: none, address read from Super I/O config space 8 Datasheet: Application Note available upon request 9 10 Author: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> 11 12 13 Description 14 ----------- 15 16 SMSC SCH5627 Super I/O chips include complete hardware monitoring 17 capabilities. They can monitor up to 5 voltages, 4 fans and 8 temperatures. 18 19 The SMSC SCH5627 hardware monitoring part also contains an integrated 20 watchdog. In order for this watchdog to function some motherboard specific 21 initialization most be done by the BIOS, so if the watchdog is not enabled 22 by the BIOS the sch5627 driver will not register a watchdog device. 23 24 The hardware monitoring part of the SMSC SCH5627 is accessed by talking 25 through an embedded microcontroller. An application note describing the 26 protocol for communicating with the microcontroller is available upon 27 request. Please mail me if you want a copy.
