+Description
+___________
+
+The LTC2947 is a high precision power and energy monitor that measures current,
+voltage, power, temperature, charge and energy. The device supports both SPI
+and I2C depending on the chip configuration.
+The device also measures accumulated quantities as energy. It has two banks of
+register's to read/set energy related values. These banks can be configured
+independently to have setups like: energy1 accumulates always and enrgy2 only
+accumulates if current is positive (to check battery charging efficiency for
+example). The device also supports a GPIO pin that can be configured as output
+to control a fan as a function of measured temperature. Then, the GPIO becomes
+active as soon as a temperature reading is higher than a defined threshold. The
+temp2 channel is used to control this thresholds and to read the respective
+alarms.
+
+Sysfs entries

+
+The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write, reset_history
+is write-only and all the other attributes are read-only.
