Changes in v4:
- Append documentation for new IIO counter attributes to end of
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio file
- Return raw index input value for IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW of IIO_INDEX;
previously, index function (IDX) operation signal was returned
- Remove borrow, carry, compare, and sign attributes; the main utility
of these toggle flags can be provided seamlessly to the user via a
count range extension
- Extend range of counter to 25-bit; borrow XOR carry effectively
doubles count range
- Rename "error" attribute to more specific "noise_error"
- Default to binary encoding for counter count value and remove
encoding attribute
- Refactor quadrature_mode attribute to simply enable quadrature clock
mode and add IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE count option to select the encoder
phase division (1 = full-cycle, 2 = half-cycle, 4 = quarter-cycle)
processed by the counter; RFC: would it be better to turn this scale
attribute into a "quadrature_phase" ext_info with an IIO_ENUM to
select between the different quadrature cycle processing modes
- Rename "index_function" attribute to "synchronous_mode" for clarity;
the index input on the 104-QUAD-8 is wired to the index function
(IDX) "LCNTR/LOL" pin on the LS7266R1 chips, meaning the function
selected via preset_enable (Load Counter or Load Output Latch) is
performed non-sychronously/synchronously with the quadrature clock
when the index input goes to active level
- Add documentation for 104-QUAD-8 IIO sysfs attributes at
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio-counter-104-quad-8
This patchset adds new IIO channel type and info constants to facilitate
support for counter devices. In addition, a new "counter" subdirectory
is created to house drivers for these counter devices.
Quadrature encoders, such as rotary encoders and linear encoders, are
devices which are capable of encoding the relative position and
direction of motion of a shaft. This patchset introduces several IIO
constants for supporting quadrature encoder counter devices.
IIO_COUNT: Current count (main data provided by the counter device)
IIO_INDEX: Counter device index value
IIO_CHAN_INFO_PRESET: Counter preset value
Specifically, this patchset introduces a driver to support the ACCES
104-QUAD-8 device, a general purpose quadrature encoder
counter/interface board capable of monitoring the outputs of eight
encoders.
