+.Sh NAME
+.Nm owsbm
+.Nd 1-Wire smart battery monitor family type device
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "owsbm* at onewire?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the 1-Wire smart battery monitor. The sensor
+possesses a temperature sensor, an A/D converter for measuring both
+battery voltage and current, a current accumulator of both incoming and
+outgoing current, an elapsed time and 40 bytes of nonvolatile EEPROM.
+.Pp
+Only the three voltages (VDD, VAD, CR) and temperature are accessible by
+the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+interface though.
+.Pp
+The following chips are supported by the driver:
+.Pp
+.Bl -bullet -compact -offset indent

+.El
+.Sh MEASURING CURRENT
+.Pp
+The sensor does not measure current directly. Instead it measures the
+voltage across the Rsens pins.
+.Bl -bullet -offset indent
+I = Voltage CR / Rsens    (where Rsens is in Ohms)
