Hi,

Thanks for the patch. Unfortunately this is not quite this straight forward.

The scale is what you multiply the raw with to get the value in the standard
IIO unit. Range as implemented in this driver is the maximum output voltage.

To get the scale we need to look at the transfer function of the ADC [1].
The transfer function tells us that 1 LSB is 305uV for the 10V range and
152uV for the 5V range.

More specifically this is $RANGE*2/2**16 (times two since the ADC is bipolar).

Since the default unit for IIO is mV for voltages we need to multiply this
by 1000.

The other thing we need to handle is the case where the RANGE pin is not
connected to a GPIO but either hardwired to 1 or 0. Which we need to handle
somehow.
