-.Dt SMBBUS 4

-.Sh NAME
-.Nm smbus
-.Nd
-System Management Bus
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "controller smbus"
-.Pp
-.Cd "device iicsmb0 at iicbus?"
-.Cd "device bktr0"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Em smbus
-system provides a uniform, modular and architecture-independent
-system for the implementation of drivers to control various SMB devices
-and to utilize different SMB controllers (I2C, PIIX4, Brooktree848, vm86...).
-.Sh System Management Bus
-The
-.Em System Management Bus
-is a two-wire interface through which simple power-related chips can communicate
-with rest of the system. It uses I2C as its backbone (see
-.Xr iicbus 4 ).
-
-A system using SMB passes messages to and from devices instead of tripping
-individual control lines.
-
-With the SMBus, a device can provide manufacturer information, tell the
-system what its model/part number is, save its state for a suspend event,
-report different types of errors, accept control parameters, and return its
-status.
-
-The SMBus may share the same host device and physical bus as ACCESS bus
-components provided that an appropriate electrical bridge is provided
-between the internal SMB devices and external ACCESS bus devices.
