=== Background ===
The ina2xx chip has a CALIBRATION register that's used to configure
calibration value to get the scale of current and power measurement
results from their registers. It basically follows two equations:
1) CAL = calibration factor / (current_lsb_A * rshunt_Ohm)
[ calibration factor: 0.04096 for ina219; 0.00512 for ina226 ]
2) current_lsb_A = max_curr_A / 2^15
According to these two equations, calibration value, current scale,
max_curr_A, and shunt resistor value are related factors.
The driver has been using two methods for these two equations:
A) Used a fixed current_lsb at 1 mA scale
B) Using a fixed calibration value at 4096|2048 for ina219|226
=== Problem ===
Both methods simplify software routine by fixing one factor, which
sacrifices the precision of the hardware measurement results.
Using ina226 for example, with method A, the current scale was 1mA
and the power scale was 25mA.
With method B, calibration value is fixed at 2048 so the precision
is decided by shunt resistor value. It sounds reasonable since the
hardware engineers can use a larger shunt resistor when they need
higher resolution. However, they often concern power burning across
the resistor as well, so the resistor usually won't be so large: a
typical value 1000 micro-ohms, which results in a current scale at
2.5 mA and a power sacle at 62.5 mW.
When measuring a 1.8v voltage running a small current (e.g. 33 mA),
the power value (that's supposed to be 59.4 mW) becomes inaccurate
due to the larger scale (25mA for method A; 62.5 mA for method B).
Also, worth mentioning: method B was added by commit 5d389b125186
("hwmon: (ina2xx) Make calibration register value fixed") stating
that 4096|2048 is the best value for ina219|in226. However, their
datasheets do not seem to mention this "best" keyword. Actually,
they are merely minimum calibration values. See below calculation:
Equation 1, mentioned at Background section:
CAL = calibration factor / (current_lsb_A * rshunt_Ohm)
=> min CAL = calibration factor / (max current_lsb_A * rshunt_Ohm)
[calibration factor is 0.00512 for ina226]
Equation 2, mentioned at Background section:
current_lsb_A = max_curr_A / 2^15
=> max current_lsb_A = (upper bound of max_curr_A) / 2^15
Equation Aux:
(upper bound of max_curr_A) = max Vshunt / rshunt_Ohm
[max Vshunt is 81.92 mA mentioned in ina226 datasheet]
Combining three equations:
min CAL = 0.00512 / (0.08192 / rshunt_Ohm / 2^15 * rshunt_Ohm)
= 0.00512 / (0.08192 / 2^15)
= 2048
=== Solution ===
Being implied in the previous two paragraphs, both methods result
in inaccurate measurements due to the large lsb values because of
the fixed factors for the calculations.
To address this problem, this patch introduces a sysfs attribute
"max_curr" (maximum expected current_lsb_mA) to allow user to set
the current_lsb_uA via this max_curr according to Equation 2, for
precision based on the use case, so they'll be able to indirectly
control the calibration_value through Equation 1.
(In order not to break existing platforms, this change continues
using 4096|2048 as a default calibration value but renames them
from "best" to "min")
Then the change introduces a pair of macros for Equation 1 and 2
and adds the calibration_factor back for Equation 1.
=== Testing ===
Fixed factors:
shunt_resistor = 1000 uO
in1_input = 1799 mV
Before:
max_curr = 81920 mA
calibration_value = 2048
when curr1_input = 33 mA,
power1_input = 125000 uW (expected 59367 uW)
when curr1_input = 35 mA
power1_input = 125000 uW (expected 62965 uW)
After:
set "max_curr" to 5145 mA (smallest within the valid range)
calibration_value = 32611
when curr1_input = 32 mA
power1_input = 58875 uW (expected 57568 uW)
when curr1_input = 35 mA
power1_input = 62800 uW (expected 62965 uW)
=== Summary ===
- "shunt_resistor" attribute sets rshunt and "max_curr" boundaries
- "max_curr" sysfs attribute decides current_lsb_uA and power_lsb_uW
- ina2xx_init() still uses 4096|2048 as default calibration setting
* All of them will calibrate as the factor of Equation 1 is changed
