Yep.
Jonathan refers to Vdd input/pin [on the chip] which is different from Vref [REF
pin].
Not all drivers define Vdd.
Some call it AVdd.

You can check via:  git grep -i vdd | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
in the drivers/iio folder 

It's an idea to add it, and that can give control to the driver to power-up the
ADC, by defining a regulator [vdd-supply] in the device-tree.

Maybe it could be interesting to move this to the IIO core as an option-flag.
[But that's another discussion]
