17 Description
18 -----------
20 This driver supports hardware monitoring for Maxim MAX8688 Digital Power-Supply
21 Controller/Monitor with PMBus Interface.
23 The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
24 Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst for details on PMBus client drivers.
27 Usage Notes
28 -----------
30 This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the
31 devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices.rst for
32 details.
35 Platform data support
36 ---------------------
38 The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data.
41 Sysfs entries
42 -------------
44 The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other
45 attributes are read-only.
