-Description
------------
-
-SMSC SCH5636 Super I/O chips include an embedded microcontroller for
-hardware monitoring solutions, allowing motherboard manufacturers to create
-their own custom hwmon solution based upon the SCH5636.
-
-Currently the sch5636 driver only supports the Fujitsu Theseus SCH5636 based
-hwmon solution. The sch5636 driver runs a sanity check on loading to ensure
-it is dealing with a Fujitsu Theseus and not with another custom SCH5636 based
-hwmon solution.
-
-The Fujitsu Theseus can monitor up to 5 voltages, 8 fans and 16
-temperatures. Note that the driver detects how many fan headers /
-temperature sensors are actually implemented on the motherboard, so you will
-likely see fewer temperature and fan inputs.
-
-The Fujitsu Theseus hwmon solution also contains an integrated watchdog.
-This watchdog is fully supported by the sch5636 driver.
-
-An application note describing the Theseus' registers, as well as an
-application note describing the protocol for communicating with the
-microcontroller is available upon request. Please mail me if you want a copy.
