 This driver implements support for the National Semiconductor LM80.
 It is described as a 'Serial Interface ACPI-Compatible Microprocessor
-System Hardware Monitor'.
+System Hardware Monitor'. The LM96080 is a more recent incarnation,
+it is pin and register compatible, with a few additional features not
+yet supported by the driver.
 
 The LM80 implements one temperature sensor, two fan rotation speed sensors,
 seven voltage sensors, alarms, and some miscellaneous stuff.
