Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The DS2438 chip provides several functions that are desirable to carry in
|
|
a battery pack. It also has a 40 bytes of nonvolatile EEPROM.
|
|
Because the ability of temperature, current and voltage measurement, the chip
|
|
is also often used in weather stations and applications such as: rain gauge,
|
|
wind speed/direction measuring, humidity sensing, etc.
|
|
|
|
Current support is provided through the following sysfs files (all files
|
|
except "iad" are readonly):
|
|
|
|
"iad"
|
|
-----
|
|
This file controls the 'Current A/D Control Bit' (IAD) in the
|
|
Status/Configuration Register.
|
|
Writing a zero value will clear the IAD bit and disables the current
|
|
measurements.
|
|
Writing value "1" is setting the IAD bit (enables the measurements).
|
|
The IAD bit is enabled by default in the DS2438.
|
|
|
|
When writing to sysfs file bits 2-7 are ignored, so it's safe to write ASCII.
|
|
An I/O error is returned when there is a problem setting the new value.
|
|
|
|
"page0"
|
|
-------
|
|
This file provides full 8 bytes of the chip Page 0 (00h).
|
|
This page contains the most frequently accessed information of the DS2438.
|
|
Internally when this file is read, the additional CRC byte is also obtained
|
|
from the slave device. If it is correct, the 8 bytes page data are passed
|
|
to userspace, otherwise an I/O error is returned.
|
|
|
|
"temperature"
|
|
-------------
|
|
Opening and reading this file initiates the CONVERT_T (temperature conversion)
|
|
command of the chip, afterwards the temperature is read from the device
|
|
registers and provided as an ASCII decimal value.
|
|
|
|
Important: The returned value has to be divided by 256 to get a real
|
|
temperature in degrees Celsius.
|
|
|
|
"vad", "vdd"
|
|
------------
|
|
Opening and reading this file initiates the CONVERT_V (voltage conversion)
|
|
command of the chip.
|
|
|
|
Depending on a sysfs filename a different input for the A/D will be selected:
|
|
vad: general purpose A/D input (VAD)
|
|
vdd: battery input (VDD)
|
|
|
|
After the voltage conversion the value is returned as decimal ASCII.
|
|
Note: The value is in mV, so to get a volts the value has to be divided by 10.
