The INA219 monitors both shunt drop and supply voltage, with +programmable conversion times and filtering. + +The INA220 is a high or low side current shunt and power monitor with an I2C +interface. The INA220 monitors both shunt drop and supply voltage. + +The INA226 is a current shunt and power monitor with an I2C interface. +The INA226 monitors both a shunt voltage drop and bus supply voltage. + +INA230 and INA231 are high or low side current shunt and power monitors +with an I2C interface. The chips monitor both a shunt voltage drop and +bus supply voltage. + +The shunt value in micro-ohms can be set via platform data or device tree at +compile-time or via the shunt_resistor attribute in sysfs at run-time. Please +refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/ina2xx.txt for bindings +if the device tree is used. + +Additionally ina226 supports update_interval attribute as described in +Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface. Internally the interval is the sum of +bus and shunt voltage conversion times multiplied by the averaging rate. We +don't touch the conversion times and only modify the number of averages. The +lower limit of the update_interval is 2 ms, the upper limit is 2253 ms. +The actual programmed interval may vary from the desired value. |
