[PATCH 00/19] staging: iio: isl29028: staging cleanups

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

 



This is my first round of cleanups to the isl29028 light driver in
preparation for moving the driver out of staging. The main feature
introduced by this patch set is support for power management. The
rest of the patches are minor improvements, mostly style.

I have one of these devices from
https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/intersil/ISL29028AIROZ-T7/ISL29028AIROZ-T7CT-ND/2639604
mounted on a breakout board hooked up to a Raspberry Pi 2. The IR and
light sensor are functioning, however I can't get the proximity sensor
to work. I hooked an oscilloscope up to the IRDR pin and +3V to verify
that the pin state begins pulsing when proximity mode is enabled on the
chip. According to page 9 of the datasheet
http://www.intersil.com/content/dam/Intersil/documents/isl2/isl29028.pdf,
the chip has a noise reduction feature where it will take an IR reading
with the IR LED off to get the baseline, drive the IR LED for 0.1ms, take
another IR reading, and subtract the two readings. My hunch about the
cause of my issue is the 5mm IR LED that I am using is still emitting IR
light during the brief time that the IRDR has no power. The LED is huge
size wise compared to the size of the chip. Replacing the IR LED with a
visible light LED causes the visible light LED to become illuminated
dimly when the IRDR pin begins pulsing.

Any suggestions are welcome. Ideally, I'd like to verify that the
proximity sensing works before submitting a patch moving the driver out
of staging. Looking through the data sheet, and the git commits since
the driver was first introduced into staging, everything in the driver
looks correct so I think this is operator error on my part.
