Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The LTC4245 controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed
|
|
from a live backplane in multiple supply systems such as CompactPCI and
|
|
PCI Express.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage Notes
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This driver does not probe for LTC4245 devices, due to the fact that some
|
|
of the possible addresses are unfriendly to probing. You will have to
|
|
instantiate the devices explicitly.
|
|
|
|
Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC4245 at address 0x23
|
|
on I2C bus #1::
|
|
|
|
$ modprobe ltc4245
|
|
$ echo ltc4245 0x23 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sysfs entries
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The LTC4245 has built-in limits for over and under current warnings. This
|
|
makes it very likely that the reference circuit will be used.
|
|
|
|
This driver uses the values in the datasheet to change the register values
|
|
into the values specified in the sysfs-interface document. The current readings
|
|
rely on the sense resistors listed in Table 2: "Sense Resistor Values".

Note 1
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
If you have NOT configured the driver to sample all GPIO pins as analog
|
|
voltages, then the in10_input and in11_input sysfs attributes will not be
|
|
created. The driver will sample the GPIO pin that is currently connected to the
|
|
ADC as an analog voltage, and report the value in in9_input.
|
|
|
|
If you have configured the driver to sample all GPIO pins as analog voltages,
|
|
then they will be sampled in round-robin fashion. If userspace reads too
|
|
slowly, -EAGAIN will be returned when you read the sysfs attribute containing
|
|
the sensor reading.
|
|
|
|
The LTC4245 chip can be configured to sample all GPIO pins with two methods:
|
|
|
|
1) platform data -- see include/linux/platform_data/ltc4245.h
|
|
2) OF device tree -- add the "ltc4245,use-extra-gpios" property to each chip
|
|
|
|
The default mode of operation is to sample a single GPIO pin.
