[PATCH v5 1/9] dt-bindings: iio: adc: Add common-mode-channel property

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dumitru Ceclan <dumitru.ceclan@xxxxxxxxxx>

There are ADCs that are differential but support to measure single-ended
signals on the same channels by connecting a constant voltage to the
negative input pin.

This property allows to properly define a single-ended channel that
requires two inputs to be specified. Software can use the presence of
this property to mark the channel as not differential.
