| 17 | Description |
| 18 | ----------- |
| 19 | |
| 20 | From the datasheet: |
| 21 | |
| 22 | "The EMC6W201 is an environmental monitoring device with automatic fan |
| 23 | control capability and enhanced system acoustics for noise suppression. |
| 24 | This ACPI compliant device provides hardware monitoring for up to six |
| 25 | voltages (including its own VCC) and five external thermal sensors, |
| 26 | measures the speed of up to five fans, and controls the speed of |
| 27 | multiple DC fans using three Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) outputs. Note |
| 28 | that it is possible to control more than three fans by connecting two |
| 29 | fans to one PWM output. The EMC6W201 will be available in a 36-pin |
| 30 | QFN package." |
| 31 | |
| 32 | The device is functionally close to the EMC6D100 series, but is |
| 33 | register-incompatible. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | The driver currently only supports the monitoring of the voltages, |
| 36 | temperatures and fan speeds. Limits can be changed. Alarms are not |
| 37 | supported, and neither is fan speed control. |
