| 14 | Description | |
| 15 | ----------- | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | The WM831x series of PMICs include an AUXADC which can be used to | |
| 18 | monitor a range of system operating parameters, including the voltages | |
| 19 | of the major supplies within the system. Currently the driver provides | |
| 20 | reporting of all the input values but does not provide any alarms. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | Voltage Monitoring | |
| 23 | ------------------ | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Voltages are sampled by a 12 bit ADC. Voltages in milivolts are 1.465 | |
| 26 | times the ADC value. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | Temperature Monitoring | |
| 29 | ---------------------- | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | Temperatures are sampled by a 12 bit ADC. Chip and battery temperatures | |
| 32 | are available. The chip temperature is calculated as: | |
| 33 | ||
| 34 | Degrees celsius = (512.18 - data) / 1.0983 | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | while the battery temperature calculation will depend on the NTC | |
| 37 | thermistor component. |
