MAX31827 implements a temperature sensor with a 6 WLP packaging scheme. This
sensor measures the temperature of the chip itself.
This driver also supports the MAX31875. Its fault queue is set to 1 and it has
no alarm polarity.

MAX31827 implements a temperature sensor with a 6 WLP packaging scheme while
MAX31875 has a 4 WLP packaging scheme. This sensor measures the temperature of
the chip itself.

MAX31827 has low and over temperature alarms with an effective value and a
hysteresis value: -40 and -30 degrees for under temperature alarm and +100 and
+90 degrees for over temperature alarm.

MAX31875 has only an over temperature alarm with an effective value and a
hysteresis value: +80 and +75 degrees.

The alarm can be configured in comparator and interrupt mode from the

The conversion rate can be modified with update_interval attribute of the chip.
Conversion/second = 1/update_interval. Thus, the available options according to
the data sheet are:

- 250 (ms) = 4 conv/sec
- 125 (ms) = 8 conv/sec
