+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the Maxim MAX6639. This chip is a 2-channel
+temperature monitor with dual PWM fan speed controller. It can monitor its own
+temperature and one external diode-connected transistor or two external
+diode-connected transistors.
+
+The following device attributes are implemented via sysfs:
