Subject: [PATCH 2/4] iio: Introduce IIO_CHAN_INFO_RANGE
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2015 21:35:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1424720154-4762-3-git-send-email-roberta.dobrescu@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1424720154-4762-1-git-send-email-roberta.dobrescu@gmail.com>
Some ambient light sensors have hardware dependent ranges and
resolutions. In this case user won't be able to calculate illuminance
(lux) using only scale attribute.
For instance, a device that uses a Full Scale Range is the
light sensor ISL29018. In this case, IIO_CHAN_INFO_RANGE is
needed since the number of ADC bits can be 4, 8, 12 or 16 and
using just scales would result in too similar values for different
ranges and resolutions.
