Please see +Documentation/hwmon/pmbus for details on PMBus client drivers. + + +Usage Notes +----------- + +This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the +devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for +details. + +For MAX34446, the value of the currX_crit attribute determines if current or +voltage measurement is enabled for a given channel. Voltage measurement is +enabled if currX_crit is set to 0; current measurement is enabled if the +attribute is set to a positive value. Power measurement is only enabled if +channel 1 (3) is configured for voltage measurement, and channel 2 (4) is +configured for current measurement. + + +Platform data support +--------------------- + +The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data. + + +Sysfs entries +------------- + +The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other +attributes are read-only. + +in[1-6]_label "vout[1-6]". +in[1-6]_input Measured voltage. From READ_VOUT register. +in[1-6]_min Minimum Voltage.
