max9611_read_csa_voltage(9) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the max9611_read_csa_voltage(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, we’re reading the current sense amplifier output voltage and we’re gonna be so normal about it. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

max9611_read_csa_voltage β€” read current sense amplifier output voltage. That’s the whole name and it’s literally giving exactly what it says on the tin. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here’s the signature, bestie β€” copy it exactly, no autocorrect shenanigans:

int max9611_read_csa_voltage (struct max9611_dev *max9611 , u16 *adc_raw
, enum max9611_csa_gain *csa_gain );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

three args, three little besties:

  • max9611 β€” max9611 device 🫢
  • adc_raw β€” raw value read from ADC output ✨
  • csa_gain β€” gain configuration option selector πŸ’…

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so the current sense amplifier output voltage is read through a configurable 1x, 4x, or 8x gain. that’s the menu. πŸ“

start with plain 1x gain, then adjust the gain control properly until a meaningful value is read from the ADC output. that’s the flow β€” no skipping steps, no cap. ✨
