-Temperature conversion of the DS1621 takes up to 1000ms; internal access to
-non-volatile registers may last for 10ms or below.
+Since there is no version or vendor identification register, there is
+no unique identification for these devices. Therefore, explicit device
+instantiation is required for correct device identification and functionality
+(one device per address in this address range: 0x48..0x4f).
+
+The DS1625 is pin compatible and functionally equivalent with the DS1621,
+but the DS1621 is meant to replace it. The DS1631, DS1721, and DS1731 are
+also pin compatible with the DS1621 and provide multi-resolution support.
+
+Additionally, the DS1721 data sheet says the temperature flags (THF and TLF)
+are used internally, however, these flags do get set and cleared as the actual
+temperature crosses the min or max settings (which by default are set to 75
+and 80 degrees respectively).
+
+Temperature Conversion:
+-----------------------
+DS1621 - 750ms (older devices may take up to 1000ms)
+DS1625 - 500ms
+DS1631 - 93ms..750ms for 9..12 bits resolution, respectively.
+DS1721 - 93ms..750ms for 9..12 bits resolution, respectively.
+DS1731 - 93ms..750ms for 9..12 bits resolution, respectively.
+
+Note:
+On the DS1621, internal access to non-volatile registers may last for 10ms
+or less (unverified on the other devices).
+
+Temperature Accuracy:
+---------------------
+DS1621: +/- 0.5 degree Celsius (from 0 to +70 degrees)
+DS1625: +/- 0.5 degree Celsius (from 0 to +70 degrees)
+DS1631: +/- 0.5 degree Celsius (from 0 to +70 degrees)
+DS1721: +/- 1.0 degree Celsius (from -10 to +85 degrees)
+DS1731: +/- 1.0 degree Celsius (from -10 to +85 degrees)
+
+Note:
+Please refer to the device datasheets for accuracy at other temperatures.
+
+Temperature Resolution:
+-----------------------
+As mentioned above, the DS1631, DS1721, and DS1731 provide multi-resolution
+support, which is achieved via the R0 and R1 config register bits, where:
+
+R0..R1
+------
+ 0 0 => 9 bits, 0.5 degrees Celcius
+ 1 0 => 10 bits, 0.25 degrees Celcius
+ 0 1 => 11 bits, 0.125 degrees Celcius
+ 1 1 => 12 bits, 0.0625 degrees Celcius
+
+Note:
+At initial device power-on, the default resolution is set to 12-bits.
+
+The resolution mode for the DS1631, DS1721, or DS1731 can be changed from
+userspace, via the device 'update_interval' sysfs attribute. This attribute
+will normalize the range of input values to the device maximum resolution
+values defined in the datasheet as follows:
+
+Resolution Conversion Time Input Range
+ (C/LSB) (msec) (msec)
+------------------------------------------------
+0.5 93.75 0....94
+0.25 187.5 95...187
+0.125 375 188..375
+0.0625 750 376..infinity
+------------------------------------------------
+
+The following examples show how the 'update_interval' attribute can be
+used to change the conversion time:
+
+$ cat update_interval
+750
+$ cat temp1_input
+22062
+$
+$ echo 300 > update_interval
+$ cat update_interval
+375
+$ cat temp1_input
+22125
+$
+$ echo 150 > update_interval
+$ cat update_interval
+188
+$ cat temp1_input
+22250
+$
+$ echo 1 > update_interval
+$ cat update_interval
+94
+$ cat temp1_input
+22000
+$
+$ echo 1000 > update_interval
+$ cat update_interval
+750
+$ cat temp1_input
+22062
+$
+
+As shown, the ds1621 driver automatically adjusts the 'update_interval'
+user input, via a step function. Reading back the 'update_interval' value
+after a write operation provides the conversion time used by the device.
+
+Mathematically, the resolution can be derived from the conversion time
+via the following function:
+
+ g(x) = 0.5 * [minimum_conversion_time/x]
+
+where:
+ -> 'x' = the output from 'update_interval'
+ -> 'g(x)' = the resolution in degrees C per LSB.
+ -> 93.75ms = minimum conversion time
