Re: IIO Drivers

Last question :)  I'd like to sample from this device as quickly as possible - so I'm assuming I need to trigger quickly?  Should I use iio-trig-periodic-rtc?  Any hints/instructions on how to use that?  Should the driver supply it's own trigger that uses an hrtimer instead?

Thanks!
Chris

I updated the iio_utils.h to a newer version I found here: https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/iio-oscilloscope and then made a few modifications (the newer iio_utils did not parse a few things right in the channel details like bigendian/littleendian)
