[PATCH 2/2] hwmon: (pmbus/max20830) Add support for MAX20810, MAX20815, LTM4739, LTM4740

From: Carlos Jones Jr

Date: Mon Oct 26 2026 - 01:03:48 EST


Add support for additional members of the MAX20830 family:
- MAX20810: 2.7V-16V input, up to 10A output
- MAX20815: 2.7V-16V input, up to 15A output
- LTM4739: 3V-15V input, up to 10A output
- LTM4740: 3V-15V input, up to 15A output

The LTM4739 and LTM4740 are the LTM-series equivalents of the MAX20810
and MAX20815 respectively. All share the MAX20830 PMBus command set and
telemetry, so no new register handling is required; they are accepted by
matching their IC_DEVICE_ID.

The LTM4739 and LTM4740 are uModules built around the MAX20810/MAX20815
dies and therefore report the die's IC_DEVICE_ID by design: "MAX20810B"
and "MAX20815B" respectively. Match on those identifiers rather than on
the module part names.

Matching is via the existing adi,max20830 fallback compatible; no new
of_match entries are needed.

+MAX20830, MAX20830C, MAX20840C, LTM4739, and LTM4740 Step-Down Switching
+Regulators with PMBus Interface.
+
+The MAX20810 and LTM4739 are 10A fully integrated step-down DC-DC switching
+regulators (2.7V-16V and 3V-15V input respectively). The MAX20815 and LTM4740
+provide up to 15A. The MAX20830 and MAX20830C provide up to 30A. The MAX20840C
+provides up to 40A. Through the PMBus interface, all devices can monitor
+input/output voltages, output current and temperature.

-MAX20830, and MAX20830C are 2.7V to 16V, 30A fully integrated step-down DC-DC
-switching regulators. MAX20840C is similar but can reach 40A. Through the PMBus
-interface, these devices can monitor input/output voltages, output current and
-temperature.
+LTM4739 and LTM4740 are the LTM-family equivalents of MAX20810 and MAX20815
+respectively, sharing an identical PMBus command set. These modules report the
+underlying die's IC_DEVICE_ID by design ("MAX20810B" and "MAX20815B"
+respectively), which the driver matches during probe.

The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst for details on PMBus client drivers.
