Also, for Tyan boards which contain both a 47Super I/O chip and a second i2c-only Winbond chip (often a W83782D), 48using this driver will avoid i2c address conflicts and complex 49initialization that were required in the w83781d driver. 50 51If you really want i2c accesses for these Super I/O chips, 52use the w83781d driver. However this is not the preferred method 53now that this ISA driver has been developed. 54 55The `w83627_HF_` uses pins 110-106 as VID0-VID4. The `w83627_THF_` uses the 56same pins as GPIO[0:4]. Technically, the `w83627_THF_` does not support a 57VID reading. However the two chips have the identical 128 pin package. So, 58it is possible or even likely for a w83627thf to have the VID signals routed 59to these pins despite their not being labeled for that purpose. Therefore, 60the w83627thf driver interprets these as VID. If the VID on your board 61doesn't work, first see doc/vid in the lm_sensors package[1]. If that still 62doesn't help, you may just ignore the bogus VID reading with no harm done. 63 64For further information on this driver see the w83781d driver documentation. 65 66[1] http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/vid 67 68Forcing the address 69------------------- 70 71The driver used to have a module parameter named force_addr, which could 72be used to force the base I/O address of the hardware monitoring block. 73This was meant as a workaround for mainboards with a broken BIOS. This 74module parameter is gone for technical reasons. If you need this feature, 75you can obtain the same result by using the isaset tool (part of 76lm-sensors) before loading the driver: 77 78# Enter the Super I/O config space:: 79 80 isaset -y -f 0x2e 0x87 81 isaset -y -f 0x2e 0x87 82 83# Select the hwmon logical device:: 84 85 isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x07 0x0b 86 87# Set the base I/O address (to 0x290 in this example):: 88 89 isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x60 0x02 90 isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x61 0x90 91 92# Exit the Super-I/O config space:: 93 94 isaset -y -f 0x2e 0xaa 95 96The above sequence assumes a Super-I/O config space at 0x2e/0x2f, but 970x4e/0x4f is also possible. 98 99Voltage pin mapping 100------------------- 101 102Here is a summary of the voltage pin mapping for the W83627THF.
