 Description
 -----------
+This driver permits reading the DTS (Digital Temperature Sensor) embedded
+inside Intel CPUs. This driver can read both the per-core and per-package
+temperature using the appropriate sensors. The per-package sensor is new;
+as of now, it is present only in the SandyBridge platform. The driver will
+show the temperature of all cores inside a package under a single device
+directory inside hwmon.
 
-This driver permits reading temperature sensor embedded inside Intel Core CPU.
 Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is
 1 degree C. Valid temperatures are from 0 to TjMax degrees C, because
 the actual value of temperature register is in fact a delta from TjMax.
