+ * @class PMBusReadSensorAction
+ *
+ * Reads one sensor for a PMBus regulator rail. Communicates with the device
+ * directly using the I2C interface.
+ *
+ * Implements the pmbus_read_sensor action in the JSON config file.
+ *
+ * Currently supports the linear_11 and linear_16 sensor data formats.
+ *
+ * The linear_16 data format requires an exponent value.  The exponent value
+ * can be specified in the constructor.  Otherwise the exponent value will be
+ * obtained from the PMBus VOUT_MODE command.  Note that some PMBus devices do
+ * not support the VOUT_MODE command.  The exponent value for a device is often
+ * found in the device documentation (data sheet).
