It senses its own temperature as +well as the temperature of up to one external diode. + +All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution +is 1.0 degree for the local temperature and for the remote temperature. + +Only the external sensor has high and low limits. + +The max1619 driver will not update its values more frequently than every +other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return +'old' values. + |
