Legal 50 values are 1, 2, 4, and 8. Use lower values for 51 faster fans. 52=============== ======= ======================================================= 53 54Usage notes 55----------- 56 57This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the 58devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for 59details. 60 61Module parameters 62----------------- 63 64If your board has a BIOS that initializes the MAX6650/6651 correctly, you can 65simply load your module without parameters. It won't touch the configuration 66registers then. If your board BIOS doesn't initialize the chip, or you want 67different settings, you can set the following parameters: 68 69voltage_12V: 5=5V fan, 12=12V fan, 0=don't change 70prescaler: Possible values are 1,2,4,8,16, or 0 for don't change 71clock: The clock frequency in Hz of the chip the driver should assume [254000] 72 73Please have a look at the MAX6650/6651 data sheet and make sure that you fully 74understand the meaning of these parameters before you attempt to change them. 75
