| Kernel driver ntc_thermistor
 | |
| =================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Supported thermistors from Murata:
 | |
| * Murata NTC Thermistors NCP15WB473, NCP18WB473, NCP21WB473, NCP03WB473,
 | |
|   NCP15WL333, NCP03WF104, NCP15XH103
 | |
|   Prefixes: 'ncp15wb473', 'ncp18wb473', 'ncp21wb473', 'ncp03wb473',
 | |
|   'ncp15wl333', 'ncp03wf104', 'ncp15xh103'
 | |
|   Datasheet: Publicly available at Murata
 | |
| 
 | |
| Supported thermistors from EPCOS:
 | |
| * EPCOS NTC Thermistors B57330V2103
 | |
|   Prefixes: b57330v2103
 | |
|   Datasheet: Publicly available at EPCOS
 | |
| 
 | |
| Other NTC thermistors can be supported simply by adding compensation
 | |
| tables; e.g., NCP15WL333 support is added by the table ncpXXwl333.

| Description
 | |
| -----------
 | |
| 
 | |
| The NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor is a simple thermistor
 | |
| that requires users to provide the resistance and lookup the corresponding
 | |
| compensation table to get the temperature input.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The NTC driver provides lookup tables with a linear approximation function
 | |
| and four circuit models with an option not to use any of the four models.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The four circuit models provided are:
 | |
| 
 | |
| 	$: resister, [TH]: the thermistor
 | |
| 
 | |
|  1. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_POSITIVE, pullup_ohm > 0
 | |
| 
 | |
|    [pullup_uV]
 | |
|        |    |
 | |
|       [TH]  $ (pullup_ohm)
 | |
|        |    |
 | |
|        +----+-----------------------[read_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        $ (pulldown_ohm)
 | |
|        |
 | |
|       --- (ground)
 | |
| 
 | |
|  2. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_POSITIVE, pullup_ohm = 0 (not-connected)
 | |
| 
 | |
|    [pullup_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|       [TH]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        +----------------------------[read_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        $ (pulldown_ohm)
 | |
|        |
 | |
|       --- (ground)
 | |
| 
 | |
|  3. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_GROUND, pulldown_ohm > 0
 | |
| 
 | |
|    [pullup_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        $ (pullup_ohm)
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        +----+-----------------------[read_uV]
 | |
|        |    |
 | |
|       [TH]  $ (pulldown_ohm)
 | |
|        |    |
 | |
|       -------- (ground)
 | |
| 
 | |
|  4. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_GROUND, pulldown_ohm = 0 (not-connected)
 | |
| 
 | |
|    [pullup_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        $ (pullup_ohm)
 | |
|        |
 | |
|        +----------------------------[read_uV]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|       [TH]
 | |
|        |
 | |
|       --- (ground)
 | |
| 
 | |
| When one of the four circuit models is used, read_uV, pullup_uV, pullup_ohm,
 | |
| pulldown_ohm, and connect should be provided. When none of the four models
 | |
| are suitable or the user can get the resistance directly, the user should
 | |
| provide read_ohm and _not_ provide the others.

 | |
| name		the mandatory global attribute, the thermistor name.
 | |
| 
 | |
| temp1_type	always 4 (thermistor)
 | |
| 		RO
 | |
| 
 | |
| temp1_input	measure the temperature and provide the measured value.

 | |
| 
 | |
| Note that each NTC thermistor has only _one_ thermistor; thus, only temp1 exists.
