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 LTC4245 at address 0x23 +on I2C bus #1: +$ modprobe ltc4245 force=1,0x23 + + +Sysfs entries +------------- + +The LTC4245 has built-in limits for over and under current warnings. This +makes it very likely that the reference circuit will be used. + +This driver uses the values in the datasheet to change the register values +into the values specified in the sysfs-interface document.
