Description :
This package contains a collection of user space tools for general SMBus access and hardware monitoring. SMBus, also known as System Management Bus, is a protocol for communicating through a I2C (\'I squared C\') bus. Many modern mainboards have a System Management Bus. There are a lot of devices which can be connected to a SMBus; the most notable are modern memory chips with EEPROM memories and chips for hardware monitoring.
Most modern mainboards incorporate some form of hardware monitoring chips. These chips read things like chip temperatures, fan rotation speeds and voltage levels. There are quite a few different chips which can be used by mainboard builders for approximately the same results.
You might want to use this package while building applications that might take advantage of lm_sensors if found.
