+Description
+-----------
+
+The Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC) 47M1xx Super I/O chips
+contain monitoring and PWM control circuitry for two fans.
+
+The LPC47M15x, LPC47M192 and LPC47M292 chips contain a full 'hardware
+monitoring block' in addition to the fan monitoring and control. The
+hardware monitoring block is not supported by this driver, use the
+smsc47m192 driver for that.
+
+No documentation is available for the 47M997, but it has the same device
+ID as the 47M15x and 47M192 chips and seems to be compatible.
+
+Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
+triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
+readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give
+the readings more range or accuracy. Not all RPM values can accurately be
+represented, so some rounding is done. With a divider of 2, the lowest
+representable value is around 2600 RPM.
+
+PWM values are from 0 to 255.
+
+If an alarm triggers, it will remain triggered until the hardware register
+is read at least once. This means that the cause for the alarm may
+already have disappeared! Note that in the current implementation, all
+hardware registers are read whenever any data is read (unless it is less
+than 1.5 seconds since the last update). This means that you can easily
+miss once-only alarms.

+Intel in the development of this driver.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the hardware sensor capabilities
+of the SMSC LPC47M192 and compatible Super-I/O chips.
+
+These chips support 3 temperature channels and 8 voltage inputs
+as well as CPU voltage VID input.
+
+They do also have fan monitoring and control capabilities, but the
+these features are accessed via ISA bus and are not supported by this
+driver. Use the 'smsc47m1' driver for fan monitoring and control.
+
+Voltages and temperatures are measured by an 8-bit ADC, the resolution
+of the temperatures is 1 bit per degree C.
+Voltages are scaled such that the nominal voltage corresponds to
+192 counts, i.e. 3/4 of the full range. Thus the available range for
+each voltage channel is 0V ... 255/192*(nominal voltage), the resolution
+is 1 bit per (nominal voltage)/192.
+Both voltage and temperature values are scaled by 1000, the sys files
+show voltages in mV and temperatures in units of 0.001 degC.
+
+The +12V analog voltage input channel (in4_input) is multiplexed with
+bit 4 of the encoded CPU voltage. This means that you either get
+a +12V voltage measurement or a 5 bit CPU VID, but not both.
+The default setting is to use the pin as 12V input, and use only 4 bit VID.
+This driver assumes that the information in the configuration register
+is correct, i.e. that the BIOS has updated the configuration if
+the motherboard has this input wired to VID4.
+
+The temperature and voltage readings are updated once every 1.5 seconds.
+Reading them more often repeats the same values.
+
+
+sysfs interface
+---------------
+
+in0_input - +2.5V voltage input
+in1_input - CPU voltage input (nominal 2.25V)
+in2_input - +3.3V voltage input
+in3_input - +5V voltage input
+in4_input - +12V voltage input (may be missing if used as VID4)
+in5_input - Vcc voltage input (nominal 3.3V)
+ This is the supply voltage of the sensor chip itself.
+in6_input - +1.5V voltage input
+in7_input - +1.8V voltage input
+
+in[0-7]_min,
+in[0-7]_max - lower and upper alarm thresholds for in[0-7]_input reading
+
+ All voltages are read and written in mV.
+
+in[0-7]_alarm - alarm flags for voltage inputs
+ These files read '1' in case of alarm, '0' otherwise.
+
+temp1_input - chip temperature measured by on-chip diode
+temp[2-3]_input - temperature measured by external diodes (one of these would
+ typically be wired to the diode inside the CPU)
+
+temp[1-3]_min,
+temp[1-3]_max - lower and upper alarm thresholds for temperatures
+
+temp[1-3]_offset - temperature offset registers
+ The chip adds the offsets stored in these registers to
+ the corresponding temperature readings.
+ Note that temp1 and temp2 offsets share the same register,
+ they cannot both be different from zero at the same time.
+ Writing a non-zero number to one of them will reset the other
+ offset to zero.
+
+ All temperatures and offsets are read and written in
+ units of 0.001 degC.
+
+temp[1-3]_alarm - alarm flags for temperature inputs, '1' in case of alarm,
+ '0' otherwise.
+temp[2-3]_input_fault - diode fault flags for temperature inputs 2 and 3.
+ A fault is detected if the two pins for the corresponding
+ sensor are open or shorted, or any of the two is shorted
+ to ground or Vcc. '1' indicates a diode fault.
+
+cpu0_vid - CPU voltage as received from the CPU
+
+vrm - CPU VID standard used for decoding CPU voltage
+
+ The *_min, *_max, *_offset and vrm files can be read and
+ written, all others are read-only.
