ADI wants people to use their prefix for newly added devices,
particularly if their release is after the maxim purchase.

Atypical ordering, usually reg is before these cells props.

This doesn't do anything, when you have unevalatedProperties: false.
If these are the only valid properties, use additionalProperties: false
instead. Otherwise, you can just remove this line.

Typically in IIO, supplies are made required unless the device can
operate without them.
