  Kernel driver ltc4151
  =====================
  
  Supported chips:
    * Linear Technology LTC4151
      Prefix: 'ltc4151'
      Addresses scanned: -
      Datasheet:

  Description
  -----------
  
  The LTC4151 is a High Voltage I2C Current and Voltage Monitor.
  
  
  Usage Notes
  -----------
  
  This driver does not probe for LTC4151 devices, since there is no register
  which can be safely used to identify the chip. You will have to instantiate
  the devices explicitly.
  
  Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC4151 at address 0x6f
  on I2C bus #0:
  # modprobe ltc4151
  # echo ltc4151 0x6f > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-0/new_device
  
  
  Sysfs entries
  -------------
  
  Voltage readings provided by this driver are reported as obtained from the ADIN
  and VIN registers.
  
  Current reading provided by this driver is reported as obtained from the Current
  Sense register. The reported value assumes that a 1 mOhm sense resistor is
  installed.
  
  in1_input		VDIN voltage (mV)
  
  in2_input		ADIN voltage (mV)
  
  curr1_input		SENSE current (mA)
