IIO Device characteristics
==========================
The AD4000 series driver supports differential and pseudo-differential ADCs.
The span compression feature available in AD4000 series devices can be
enabled/disabled by changing the ``_scale_available`` attribute of the voltage
channel. Note that span compression configuration requires writing to AD4000
configuration register, which is only possible when the ADC is wired in 3-wire
turbo mode, and the SPI controller is ``SPI_MOSI_IDLE_HIGH`` capable. If those
conditions are not met, no ``_scale_available`` attribute is provided.
Besides that, differential and pseudo-differential voltage channels present
slightly different sysfs interfaces.
Pseudo-differential ADCs
------------------------
Typical voltage channel attributes of a pseudo-differential AD4000 series device:
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Voltage Channel Attributes | Description |
+===========================================+==========================================+
| ``in_voltage0_raw`` | Raw ADC output code. |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| ``in_voltage0_offset`` | Offset to convert raw value to mV. |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| ``in_voltage0_scale`` | Scale factor to convert raw value to mV. |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| ``in_voltage0_scale_available`` | Toggles input span compression |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
Differential ADCs
-----------------
Typical voltage channel attributes of a differential AD4000 series device:
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Voltage Channel Attributes | Description |
+===========================================+==========================================+
| ``in_voltage0-voltage1_raw`` | Raw ADC output code. |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| ``in_voltage0-voltage1_scale`` | Scale factor to convert raw value to mV. |
+-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| ``in_voltage0-voltage1_scale_available`` | Toggles input span compression |
