14Description
15-----------
16
17The WM835x series of PMICs include an AUXADC which can be used to
18monitor a range of system operating parameters, including the voltages
19of the major supplies within the system. Currently the driver provides
20simple access to these major supplies.

22Voltage Monitoring
23------------------

25Voltages are sampled by a 12 bit ADC. For the internal supplies the ADC
26is referenced to the system VRTC.
