Enormous :)  The sca3000 series were much more exciting parts with fifos
and other fun a long time before anyone else had them.  That part drove
a lot of the weirder corners of IIO in the early days and had features
that didn't show up anywhere else for quite a few years.

The sca3100 onwards were much simpler (from software point of view) - I guess
Murata have a different focus than VTI did.
