63This driver implements support for JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensors. 64This driver implements support for JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensors,
65which are used on many DDR3 memory modules for mobile devices and servers. Some
66systems use the sensor to prevent memory overheating by automatically throttling
67the memory controller.
