13 w1_therm provides basic temperature conversion for ds18*20 devices.
14 supported family codes:
19 Support is provided through the sysfs w1_slave file. Each open and
20 read sequence will initiate a temperature conversion then provide two
21 lines of ASCII output. The first line contains the nine hex bytes
22 read along with a calculated crc value and YES or NO if it matched.
23 If the crc matched the returned values are retained. The second line
24 displays the retained values along with a temperature in millidegrees
27 Parasite powered devices are limited to one slave performing a
28 temperature conversion at a time. If none of the devices are parasite
29 powered it would be possible to convert all the devices at the same
30 time and then go back to read individual sensors. That isn't
31 currently supported. The driver also doesn't support reduced
32 precision (which would also reduce the conversion time).
34 The module parameter strong_pullup can be set to 0 to disable the
35 strong pullup or 1 to enable. If enabled the 5V strong pullup will be
36 enabled when the conversion is taking place provided the master driver
37 must support the strong pullup (or it falls back to a pullup
38 resistor). The DS18b20 temperature sensor specification lists a
39 maximum current draw of 1.5mA and that a 5k pullup resistor is not
40 sufficient. The strong pullup is designed to provide the additional
