+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver supports hardware monitoring for Analog Devices LTC4286
+and LTC4287 Hot-Swap Controller and Digital Power Monitors.
+
+LTC4286 and LTC4287 are hot-swap controllers that allow a circuit board
+to be removed from or inserted into a live backplane. They also feature
+current and voltage readback via an integrated 12 bit analog-to-digital
+converter (ADC), accessed using a PMBus interface.
+
+The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
+Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst 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.rst for
+details.
+
+The shunt value in micro-ohms can be set via device tree at compile-time. Please
+refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/lltc,ltc4286.yaml for bindings
+if the device tree is used.
+
+
+Platform data support
+---------------------
+
+The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data. Please see
+Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst for details.
+
+
+Sysfs entries
+-------------
+
+The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write, history reset
+attributes are write-only, all other attributes are read-only.
