lm-sensors is a widely-used suite of user-space tools and drivers that provides hardware monitoring capabilities—including CPU temperature, fan speed, and voltage readings—on Linux systems.

Features

  • sensors: command-line utility to display real-time hardware sensor metrics (temperature, voltage, fan speed)
  • sensord: daemon that logs sensor data and triggers alerts or actions; supports RRD for visual monitoring
  • Includes sample configuration files for diverse motherboards and sensor chips
  • Detects necessary kernel modules and assists in auto-configuration (sensors-detect)
  • Core component in system health diagnostics, embedded into most Linux distributions
  • Actively maintained, with community-driven updates and issue tracking
