Hello, here is some more context from the TPS65950's TRM [1].
Quoting from section 15.3.1.2.1 VUSB3V1 section:
"VUSB3V1 is also used to bias analog multiplexers on the four MCPC
pins between the carkit and the MADC (supplied by VINTANA2)."
And from section 15.4.11. MADC Monitoring Using MCPC:
"Four MCPC pins can be selected as analog conversion input pins by
setting the CARKIT_ANA_CTRL[3] SEL_MADC_MCPC bit."
My patch addresses both (set the register, and enable 3v1). And yes it
has been tested on Gumstix Overo COMs (OMAP3 + TPS65950).
Hope to hear from IIO maintainers!
