 At the moment the driver controls these sensors in comparator mode and the
 interrupt pins (INT, T_CRIT_A) are ignored.
 
+Support was added later for the LM76 and Maxim MAX6633/MAX6634/MAX6635,
+which are mostly compatible. They have not all been tested, so you
+may need to use the force parameter.
