Description
-----------
The DS1621 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the
Overtemperature register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be
set and read to half-degree accuracy.
An alarm is issued when the temperature gets higher then the Overtemperature
value; or drops below the Hysteresis value.
It stays on until reset by the kernel module.
All temperatures are in degrees Celcius, and are guaranteed within a
range of -55 to +125 degrees.
The DS1621 supplies the temperature data in a format common with chips
like the LM75, LM77 and DS75, DS1775.
While the DS1621 has three additional bits of accuracy
(12 vs. 9 for the LM75), the additional bits are not supported.
