We will refer to them collectively +as Winbond chips. + +The chips implement 3 to 4 temperature sensors (9 for NCT6775F and NCT6776F), +2 to 5 fan rotation speed sensors, 8 to 10 analog voltage sensors, one VID +(except for 627UHG), alarms with beep warnings (control unimplemented), +and some automatic fan regulation strategies (plus manual fan control mode). + +The temperature sensor sources on W82677HG-B, NCT6775F, and NCT6776F are +configurable. temp4 and higher attributes are only reported if its temperature +source differs from the temperature sources of the already reported temperature +sensors. The configured source for each of the temperature sensors is provided +in tempX_label. + +Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is 1 +degC for temp1 and 0.5 degC for temp2 and temp3. For temp4 and higher, +resolution is 1 degC for W83667HG-B and 0.0 degC for NCT6775F and NCT6776F. +An alarm is triggered when the temperature gets higher than high limit; +it stays on until the temperature falls below the hysteresis value. +Alarms are only supported for temp1, temp2, and temp3. + +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, 8, 16, 32, 64 or +128) to give the readings more range or accuracy. The driver sets the most +suitable fan divisor itself. Some fans might not be present because they +share pins with other functions. + +Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts. +An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum +or maximum limit. + +The driver supports automatic fan control mode known as Thermal Cruise. +In this mode, the chip attempts to keep the measured temperature in a +predefined temperature range. If the temperature goes out of range, fan +is driven slower/faster to reach the predefined range again. + +The mode works for fan1-fan4. Mapping of temperatures to pwm outputs is as +follows:: + + temp1 -> pwm1 + temp2 -> pwm2 + temp3 -> pwm3 (not on 627UHG) + prog -> pwm4 (not on 667HG and 667HG-B; the programmable setting is not + supported by the driver) + +/sys files +---------- + +name + this is a standard hwmon device entry, it contains the name of + the device (see the prefix in the list of supported devices at + the top of this file) + +pwm[1-4] + this file stores PWM duty cycle or DC value (fan speed) in range: + + 0 (stop) to 255 (full) + +pwm[1-4]_enable + this file controls mode of fan/temperature control: + + * 1 Manual mode, write to pwm file any value 0-255 (full speed) + * 2 "Thermal Cruise" mode + * 3 "Fan Speed Cruise" mode + * 4 "Smart Fan III" mode + * 5 "Smart Fan IV" mode + + SmartFan III mode is not supported on NCT6776F. + + SmartFan IV mode is configurable only if it was configured at system + startup, and is only supported for W83677HG-B, NCT6775F, and NCT6776F. + SmartFan IV operational parameters can not be configured at this time, + and the various pwm attributes are not used in SmartFan IV mode. + The attributes can be written to, which is useful if you plan to + configure the system for a different pwm mode. However, the information + returned when reading pwm attributes is unrelated to SmartFan IV + operation. + +pwm[1-4]_mode + controls if output is PWM or DC level + + * 0 DC output (0 - 12v) + * 1 PWM output + +Thermal Cruise mode +------------------- + +If the temperature is in the range defined by: + +pwm[1-4]_target + set target temperature, unit millidegree Celsius + (range 0 - 127000) +pwm[1-4]_tolerance + tolerance, unit millidegree Celsius (range 0 - 15000) + +there are no changes to fan speed.

Some registers also have +different power-on default values, but BIOS should already be loading +appropriate defaults.
