Linux Driver To Expose Voltage Inputs For Raspberry Pi SBCs

([Raspberry Pi] 6 Hours Ago Raspberry Pi Voltage Inputs)


The Raspberry Pi hardware monitoring driver "RASPBERRYPI-HWMON" is being extended to allow exposing voltage measurements on these ARM single board computers.

The Raspberry Pi firmware provides a number of voltage measurements for the core and multiple SDRAM voltages. With a patch queued into hwmon-next, those voltage measurements are being propagated to the Linux user-space via the conventional HWMON sysfs interfaces.

This includes in0_input for the core voltage, in1_input as the SDRAM controller voltage, in2_input as the SDRAM I/O voltage, and in3_input as the SDRAM PHY voltage. All measurements are in millivolts.

With [1]this patch making it into the hardware monitoring subsystem's hwmon-next Git branch, it should be submitted as part of the changes for the Linux 7.2 merge window in mid-June.

Have you seen the old man in the closed down market,
Kicking up the papers in his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride, hands hang loosely at his side
Yesterdays papers, telling yesterdays news.

How can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand
Lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind...

Have you seen the old man outside the sea-man's mission
Memories fading like the metal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero and a world that doesn't care...
