[PATCH 2/2] hwmon: (pmbus/max20830) add driver for max20830

From: Alexis Czezar Torreno

Date: Tue Apr 14 2026 - 00:30:47 EST


Add support for MAX20830 step-down DC-DC switching regulator with
PMBus interface. It allows monitoring of input/output voltage,
output current and temperature through the PMBus serial interface.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver supports hardware monitoring for Analog Devices MAX20830
+Step-Down Switching Regulator with PMBus Interface.
+
+The MAX20830 is a 2.7V to 16V, 30A fully integrated step-down DC-DC switching
+regulator. Through the PMBus interface, the device can monitor input/output
+voltages, output current and temperature.
+
+The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
+Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst for details on PMBus client drivers.
