The ADM1025 is a complete system hardware +monitor for microprocessor-based systems, providing measurement and limit +comparison of various system parameters. Five voltage measurement inputs +are provided, for monitoring +2.5V, +3.3V, +5V and +12V power supplies and +the processor core voltage. The ADM1025 can monitor a sixth power-supply +voltage by measuring its own VCC. One input (two pins) is dedicated to a +remote temperature-sensing diode and an on-chip temperature sensor allows +ambient temperature to be monitored. + +One specificity of this chip is that the pin 11 can be hardwired in two +different manners. It can act as the +12V power-supply voltage analog +input, or as the a fifth digital entry for the VID reading (bit 4). It's +kind of strange since both are useful, and the reason for designing the +chip that way is obscure at least to me. The bit 5 of the configuration +register can be used to define how the chip is hardwired. Please note that +it is not a choice you have to make as the user. The choice was already +made by your motherboard's maker. If the configuration bit isn't set +properly, you'll have a wrong +12V reading or a wrong VID reading. The way +the driver handles that is to preserve this bit through the initialization +process, assuming that the BIOS set it up properly beforehand. If it turns +out not to be true in some cases, we'll provide a module parameter to force +modes. + +This driver also supports the ADM1025A, which differs from the ADM1025 +only in that it has "open-drain VID inputs while the ADM1025 has on-chip +100k pull-ups on the VID inputs". It doesn't make any difference for us. |
