These chips implement one local +and up to one (TMP421), up to two (TMP422) or up to three (TMP423) +remote sensors. Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius. The chips +are wired over I2C/SMBus and specified over a temperature range of -40 +to +125 degrees Celsius. Resolution for both the local and remote +channels is 0.0625 degree C. + +The chips support only temperature measurement. The driver exports +the temperature values via the following sysfs files: + +temp[1-4]_input +temp[2-4]_fault |
