[PATCH 2/2] doc: iio: ad4695: document buffered read

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

 



The ad4695 driver has a quirk where the temperature channel can't be
enabled on its own for buffered reads, so we should document this.

Also, since there are 4 possible modes of reading conversion data, it
is useful to know which one is actually being used, namely the advanced
sequencer mode.

+Device buffers
+==============
+
+This driver supports hardware triggered buffers. This uses the "advanced
+sequencer" feature of the chip to trigger a burst of conversions.
+
+Due to hardware constraints, the temperature channel cannot be read on its own
+for buffered reads. At least one voltage channel must also be enabled.
+
+Also see :doc:`iio_devbuf` for more general information.
