0020 Description
0021 -----------
0022 
0023 The MAX1619 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as
0024 well as the temperature of up to one external diode.
0025 
0026 All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution
0027 is 1.0 degree for the local temperature and for the remote temperature.
0028 
0029 Only the external sensor has high and low limits.
0030 
0031 The max1619 driver will not update its values more frequently than every
0032 other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return
0033 'old' values.
