[PATCH 0/3] Add support for Sensirion SDP500
From: Petar Stoykov
Date: Tue Jan 16 2024 - 10:24:13 EST
This patch series introduces support for Sensirion SDP500 in the IIO
subsystem. The series is split into three patches:
1. The first patch adds the device tree bindings.
2. The second patch implements the device driver.
3. The third patch updates the MAINTAINERS file.
The driver is relatively simple. It provides a way to read the measured
differential pressure directly in Pa, as the device has a fixed scale
factor of 1/60. When an applications wants to read the pressure value,
3 bytes are read from the device, 2 are data and 1 is CRC8. If the crc
check passes, the calculated pressure value is returned in Pa units.
The initialization of the device just starts the measurement process.
We have been using this device and driver in a product development for
almost a year now. There the pressure is read every 25ms and is used in a
control loop. We have not even seen crc errors. We are using the
"linux-imx" repository and not the mainline one but I see no risky kernel
functions in use so it should be fine here too.
All feedback is appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to review this.
