+INA230 and INA231 are high or low side current shunt and power monitors
+with an I2C interface. The chips monitor both a shunt voltage drop and
+bus supply voltage.
-The shunt value in micro-ohms can be set via platform data or device tree.
-Please refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ina2xx.txt for bindings
+The shunt value in micro-ohms can be set via platform data or device tree at
+compile-time or via the shunt_resistor attribute in sysfs at run-time. Please
+refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ina2xx.txt for bindings
if the device tree is used.
+
+Additionally ina226 supports update_interval attribute as described in
+Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface. Internally the interval is the sum of
+bus and shunt voltage conversion times multiplied by the averaging rate. We
+don't touch the conversion times and only modify the number of averages. The
+lower limit of the update_interval is 2 ms, the upper limit is 2253 ms.
+The actual programmed interval may vary from the desired value.
