Pull Request Description
The reported issue is the following: "The AD4170 drivers don't do a sign extension when reading the ADC registers, as the ADC is 24 bits, but the int variable is 32-bit, it fills the 4th bit with zeroes even if bit 23 is 1."
While that could be fixed in the base driver by checking the bipolar field of AFE register in
ad4170_get_ch_data()
, I believe it's better to support the bipolar/unipodar data configuration through IIO so truly raw data access is preserved through the base driver channel read function.Add support for basic IIO support that will output
_raw
data that is properly signed according to the bipolar/unipolar AFE configuration.PR Type
