15Description
16-----------
17
18The MAX1619 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as
19well as the temperature of up to one external diode.
20
21All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution
22is 1.0 degree for the local temperature and for the remote temperature.
23
24Only the external sensor has high and low limits.
25
26The max1619 driver will not update its values more frequently than every
27other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return
28'old' values.
