| Description |
| ----------- |
| |
| The LTC4215 controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed |
| from a live backplane. |
| |
| |
| Usage Notes |
| ----------- |
| |
| This driver does not probe for LTC4215 devices, due to the fact that some |
| of the possible addresses are unfriendly to probing. You will need to use |
| the "force" parameter to tell the driver where to find the device. |
| |
| Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC4215 at address 0x44 |
| on I2C bus #0: |
| $ modprobe ltc4215 force=0,0x44 |

| Sysfs entries |
| ------------- |
| |
| The LTC4215 has built-in limits for overvoltage, undervoltage, and |
| undercurrent warnings. This makes it very likely that the reference |
| circuit will be used. |
