Devices

This is the summary page listing of over 150 hardware monitoring devices supported by the Linux 2.6 kernel. For Linux 2.4 support, please see LegacyDevices instead.

Drivers are listed in two groups: sensor chip and bus. Bus drivers are the I2C/SMBus bus masters. If your sensor chip is on an I2C or SPI bus, a bus driver is required to access any device on the bus. Chip drivers are used to access the sensor chips themselves and export the readings.

To find out what driver you need and what chips you have use the sensors-detect utility in our package. If your version of sensors-detect failed to detect a chip, you should try the  latest version of sensors-detect. sensors-detect is a stand-alone script, so you can simply download it and run it on any system, without installing anything (other than perl). You may also try our Installation Wizard.

If you would like us to support a chip not listed below, or listed as 'not planned', please contact us. Please indicate if you can help in development, testing, or donations. We don't have much spare time, so the more help you can provide, the better your chances to get a chip supported fast.

SENSOR CHIP DRIVERS

Manufacturer	Chip	Detected by sensors-detect	Driver	Bus type	Supported since kernel	Status / Comments
Abit	µGuru revision 1 and 2	no	abituguru	ISA	2.6.18	A Winbond microcontroller using (undocumented) Abit written firmware. The revision of the µGuru chip is the same as the version of the windows µGuru utility Abit offers for your motherboard.
Abit	µGuru revision 3	no	abituguru3	ISA	2.6.23	A Winbond microcontroller using (undocumented) Abit written firmware. The revision of the µGuru chip is the same as the version of the windows µGuru utility Abit offers for your motherboard.
ALi	M5879	yes				Datasheet available,  one old request, no plan.
AMD	K8	yes	k8temp	PCI	2.6.19	Latest AMD K8 processors have integrated sensors which can be read directly without any additional monitoring chip. Driver contributed by Rudolf Marek. Upgrade to lm_sensors 2.10.1 or later is mandatory, earlier versions of libsensors will fail with a "General parse error" message. Note: many recent K8 models (revision F and later) have been reported to have broken thermal sensors so the k8temp driver will return bogus values. See ticket #2278 for example. Changes in kernel 2.6.29 may improve the situation a bit. Feedback welcome.
AMD	Family 10h CPU, family 11h CPU	yes	k10temp	PCI	2.6.33 or  standalone driver	(2009-12-06) Embedded sensors are known to be unreliable on the DR-BA, DR-B2, DR-B3, RB-C2 and HY-D0 revisions of the family 10h CPU, which will never be supported.

Intel	ICH8	no		PCI		(2009-01-08) The ICH8 (82801H) and possibly later Intel south bridges have embedded sensors. These are not yet supported, due to a lack of technical documentation and support from Intel. The  OpenAMT project is supposed to help, but in practice  not much is happening. Or maybe there is  some hope?  Here too.

ITE	IT8702F	yes		LPC		(2007-11-03) We have a datasheet. Two requests ( John Sutton, Scott in ticket #1690) and one potential tester ( Andrew). On most boards it seems that the limited hardware monitoring features of this chip aren't used, so there's no point in adding support before we know of at least one system where they are used.

National Semiconductor	LM96000	yes	lm85	I2C		(2008-09-26) Complete hardware monitoring solution with SMBus interface. Seems to be mostly compatible with the LM85, using the lm85 driver should work just fine, although dedicated support is still missing. Under investigation by Herbert Pötzl.
National Semiconductor	LM63	yes	lm63	I2C	2.6.10	(2004-12-16) Found on some ATI graphics adapters and Tyan motherboards, among others. Temperature part is more or less compatible with the LM86, but a dedicated driver was preferred. Note that we could not access the LM63 chips on the ATI boards so far (it didn't show on any of the 4 known I2C buses of the graphics adapter). Driver contributed by Jean Delvare, lacks automatic fan speed control (could be developed upon donation of an LM63-enabled piece of hardware).
National Semiconductor	LM64	no		I2C		(2007-04-25) Support could be easily added to the lm63 driver, as the LM63 and LM64 are essentially compatible. Work in progress by Ramji Jiyani.

National Semiconductor (now  Nuvoton)	PC8374L,  WPCD374L	yes	lm85	LPC or I2C		(2009-02-20) Usually disabled. Accessible both on the LPC bus and the SMBus, SMBus interface is compatible with the LM96000. There exists "legacy reduced" variants of this chip (WPCD376I, WPCD377I) with the same device ID which do not have the hardware monitoring features. This results in all zero values if you load the lm85 driver (#2182,  Intel DG45FC). We don't know how to differentiate between all these chips yet. Please contact us if you have any of these chips.
National Semiconductor	PC87360, PC87363, PC87364, PC87365, PC87366	yes	pc87360	LPC	2.6.10	Super I/O with hardware monitoring. Driver contributed and ported to Linux 2.6 by Jean Delvare.
