Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] Documentation: ABI: adl8113: add documentation
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 11:57:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114115725.5660-4-antoniu.miclaus@analog.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114115725.5660-1-antoniu.miclaus@analog.com>
Add ABI documentation for the ADL8113 Low Noise Amplifier,
covering the 4 pin-selectable operating modes.
Signed-off-by: Antoniu Miclaus <antoniu.miclaus@analog.com>
---
Changes in v3:
- Replace "mode" attribute documentation with "signal_path" attribute
- Update descriptions to reflect separation of gain control (hardwaregain) and path control (signal_path)
- Add explanation of automatic bypass mode switching when selecting external paths
- Update attribute names from mode/mode_available to signal_path/signal_path_available
- Clarify that external paths enable connection of external components for filtering or amplification

+Description:
+ This attribute controls the signal routing path for the ADL8113
+ Low Noise Amplifier. The supported signal paths are:
+
+ * internal - Signal passes through internal path. Can be used with
+ either amplifier mode (14dB gain) or bypass mode (0dB gain).
+
+ * external_a - Signal routes from RFIN to OUT_A and from IN_A to RFOUT
+ (VA=0, VB=1). External components can be connected for filtering or
+ additional amplification. Automatically switches to bypass mode (0dB).
+
+ * external_b - Signal routes from RFIN to OUT_B and from IN_B to RFOUT
+ (VA=1, VB=0). External components can be connected for filtering or
+ additional amplification. Automatically switches to bypass mode (0dB).
+
+ Note: Selecting an external path automatically sets the hardware gain
+ to 0dB (bypass mode) since external paths require bypass operation.

+Description:
+ Reading this attribute returns a space-separated list of all
+ available signal paths for the ADL8113 device. The available paths
+ may depend on the current gain mode (hardwaregain setting).
