I dont know. Btw good question. I have found only this ticket entry 
http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/1790 This has been imported from old system
and it seems there is no contact info.

Phil, is there a way to find an email of Mohan?

Thanks,
regards

Let's ask the interested directly. Hi Mohan :) Any news from the driver?

Yes I have the driver which works ok.
Since I am using this in a propietary embedded system, it may not be appropriate for general use.  
The big issue is bus arbitration. At present I simply ignore it.

At present I simply read and control the registers of LTC1760
and use the "smartbatt" module to read the battery info.

Thank you for your help.

I also have to use a embedded system. An AMD DBAu1200 is the platform I use.

I found out, that I can speak with the LTC1760 just by open the /dev/i2c-0 device and then use the smbus commands from the i2c.h file (With the adresses given in the data sheet). When I start programming like this, I don't think that the result will be a driver for the lm-sensors.org. My way could be very hooked on the used board.
