+Description
+-----------
+
+The WM835x series of PMICs include an AUXADC which can be used to
+monitor a range of system operating parameters, including the voltages
+of the major supplies within the system. Currently the driver provides
+simple access to these major supplies.
+
+Voltage Monitoring
+------------------
+
+Voltages are sampled by a 12 bit ADC. For the internal supplies the ADC
+is referenced to the system VRTC.
