I need to check the battery voltage/current/temp and, if I am not wrong these are obtained from MADC. MADC driver has to be added first and then the battery. With being able to read the basic parameter battery voltage, this driver becomes incomplete. How do I get notified if battery voltage is low and needs charging from user space?
