+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for Texas Instruments TMP421, TMP422,
+TMP423, TMP441, and TMP442 temperature sensor chips. These chips
+implement one local and up to one (TMP421, TMP441), up to two (TMP422,
+TMP442) or up to three (TMP423) remote sensors. Temperature is measured
+in degrees Celsius. The chips are wired over I2C/SMBus and specified
+over a temperature range of -40 to +125 degrees Celsius. Resolution
+for both the local and remote channels is 0.0625 degree C.
+
+The chips support only temperature measurement. The driver exports
+the temperature values via the following sysfs files:
+
+**temp[1-4]_input**
+
+**temp[2-4]_fault**
