-The MCP9600 registration function allows the driver to be registered as a POSIX
-character driver.
+The MCP9600 registration function allows the driver to be registered as a
+:doc:`UORB </components/drivers/special/sensors/sensors_uorb>` sensor.
+
+The MCP9600 measures three types of temperature:
+ * Hot junction temperature
+ * Cold junction temperature
+ * Temperature delta
+
+Registering this sensor will create three UORB temperature topics, each with
+their own unique device number. You must specify the unique device numbers for
+each topic in the registration function:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+   /* Registers sensor_temp1, sensor_temp2 and sensor_temp 3, where 1 is the
+    * hot junction topic, 2 is the cold junction topic and 3 is the delta
+    */
 
-The standard POSIX `read()` operation will return the device information in
-plain-text, which is useful when debugging/testing the driver using `cat` from
-the shell.

-The `write()` operation is not implemented for this sensor.
 
-Specific operations the sensor offers can be performed via the POSIX `ioctl`
-operation. The supported commands are:
