+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensors.
+The driver auto-detects the chips listed above, but can be manually instantiated
+to support other JC 42.4 compliant chips.
+
+Example: the following will load the driver for a generic JC 42.4 compliant
+temperature sensor at address 0x18 on I2C bus #1:
+
+# modprobe jc42
+# echo jc42 0x18 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
+
+A JC 42.4 compliant chip supports a single temperature sensor. Minimum, maximum,
+and critical temperature can be configured. There are alarms for high, low,
+and critical thresholds.
+
+There is also an hysteresis to control the thresholds for resetting alarms.
+Per JC 42.4 specification, the hysteresis threshold can be configured to 0, 1.5,
+3.0, and 6.0 degrees C. Configured hysteresis values will be rounded to those
+limits. The chip supports only a single register to configure the hysteresis,
+which applies to all limits. This register can be written by writing into
+temp1_crit_hyst. Other hysteresis attributes are read-only.
