You don't have to; modprobe handles dashes and underscores as the same
character.

I think the ds1621 is a false positive, and your hardware monitoring
chip is different. It's an old chip and easily misdetected. I think I
remember a similar report some times ago, although I can't find it
again now. You didn't tell us which version of sensors-detect you have
been trying. Please try the latest version:
http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/prog/detect/sensors-detect?format=txt
It might detect your chip better. Please include the complete output of
the script.
