Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: iio: adc: avia-hx711: add avia,hx710b compatible
Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2026 23:16:39 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260419174654.683692-2-piyushpatle228@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260419174654.683692-1-piyushpatle228@gmail.com>
The HX710B shares the same two-wire interface as the HX711 but differs
in its channel and gain model: gain is fixed at 128 and the number of
trailing PD_SCK pulses selects the input channel rather than the gain.
Add avia,hx710b to the compatible enum. Document the chip differences
in the description and add chip-specific supply properties (dvdd-supply,
vsup-supply) for the HX711, a rate-gpios property for the HX711 RATE
pin, and an allOf constraint that forbids HX711-only properties on
HX710B nodes. Clarify the clock-frequency description to reflect its
actual purpose: controlling the SCK bit-bang timing. Note that AVDD
serves as the voltage reference on both chips so no separate
vref-supply is needed.

Changes in v2:
- Remove driver implementation details (bit-banging, channel-selection
mechanics) from the description; describe hardware behaviour only
- Drop unrelated punctuation cleanup (trailing period on PD_SCK description)
- Add dvdd-supply and vsup-supply optional properties for HX711
- Add rate-gpios optional property for the HX711 RATE pin; forbid it on
HX710B via the allOf if/then block
- Add note to avdd-supply clarifying it serves as voltage reference on
both chips (no separate vref-supply needed)
- Add allOf if/then block forbidding HX711-only properties on HX710B
- Fix clock-frequency description to reflect its true purpose (SCK
bit-bang timing control, not a crystal/external clock frequency)
- Sort compatible enum alphabetically (hx710b before hx711)
- Remove redundant example comments (compatible already identifies part)
- Update HX711 example to exercise the new rate-gpios property

- Bit-banging driver using two GPIOs:
- - sck-gpio gives a clock to the sensor with 24 cycles for data retrieval
- and up to 3 cycles for selection of the input channel and gain for the
- next measurement
- - dout-gpio is the sensor data the sensor responds to the clock
+ The HX711 is a 24-bit ADC with selectable gain (32/64/128) and two
+ differential input channels. Channel A supports gain 64 and 128;
+ channel B supports gain 32.
- Specifications about the driver can be found at:
- http://www.aviaic.com/ENProducts.aspx
+ The HX710B is a 24-bit ADC with fixed gain of 128. Channel 0 is the
+ differential input and channel 1 measures the DVDD-AVDD supply
+ voltage difference.
