So in other words, this describes how the MSP pins are hardwired and
the per-channel adi,output-range-microvolt is only permissible if
adi,manual-span-operation-config = <7>;
(or omitted since 7 is the default)
because in that case each individual pin could have a different
required range based on what is wire up to it?
But if adi,manual-span-operation-config is anything other than 7,
then adi,output-range-microvolt should be not allowed since all
channels will have the same range because of the hard-wired pins.
correct?
The description could probably just be simplified to say that
this describes how the 3 pins are hardwired and to see Table 4
in the datasheet to understand the actual implications rather
than reproducing that table here.
But I do agree that we need both properties. I think we are
just missing:
- if:
properties:
adi,manual-span-operation-config:
const: 7
then:
patternProperties:
"^channel@[0-3]$":
adi,output-range-microvolt: false
(not tested - may need two ifs, one with
- if:
required:
- adi,manual-span-operation-config
properties:
adi,manual-span-operation-config:
const: 7
and one with
- if:
not:
required:
- adi,manual-span-operation-config
to make it work properly)

And adi,output-range-microvolt should not be required. When SoftSpan
is not available (because MSP != 0x7), then the range is determined
by adi,manual-span-operation-config.
And even when adi,manual-span-operation-config = <7>, there is still
a default range, so adi,output-range-microvolt should still not be
required in that case.
