17.Sh NAME
18.Nm amdnbtemp
19.Nd AMD northbridge temperature sensor driver
20.Sh SYNOPSIS
21.Pa /dev/sensors/temperature/cpu/*
22.Sh DESCRIPTION
23The
24.Nm
25driver provides the system the ability to read the temperature sensor
26found in several AMD processors.
27This includes the K10 microarchitecture, and its derivatives, as well as
28the Bulldozer microarchitecture.
29The following AMD processors are supported:
30.Bl -dash
31.It
32AMD Family 10h Processors
33.Pq K10
34.It
35AMD Family 11h Processors
36.Pq Turion X2 Ultra
37.It
38AMD Family 12h Processors
39.Pq Llano APUs
40.It
41AMD Family 14h Processors
42.Pq Bobcat
43.It
44Family 15h models 0-fh, 10h-1fh, 30-3fh
45.Pq Bulldozer and Piledriver
46.It
47AMD Family 16h Processors
48.Pq Puma and Jaguar
49.El
50.Pp
51Some AMD Family 10h processors that utilize socket F and socket AM2 are
52subject to erratum 319 which indicates that the temperature sensor has
53an inaccurate measurement.
54If such a processor is detected, the system does not attach a
55temperature sensor to the device.
56.Pp
57AMD Family 15h models 60-7fh
58.Pq Steamroller and Excavator
59are not supported at this time.
60.Pp
61For AMD Family 17h
62.Pq Zen
63processors, the
64.Xr smntemp 4D
65driver provides access to the temperature sensors.
