    * The existing driver for the Microchip MCP9808 temperature sensor transformed and renamed to

      support all JEDEC JC 42.4 compatible temperature sensors. It now uses the

      :dtcompatible:`jedec,jc-42.4-temp` compatible string instead to the ``microchip,mcp9808``

      string.

    * Added support for VDD based ADC reference to the NTC thermistor driver.

    * Added Avago APDS9253 (:dtcompatible:`avago,apds9253`) and APDS9306

      (:dtcompatible:`avago,apds9306`) ambient light sensor drivers.
