okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes that Kernel API Manual, the one with all the thermal tea πŸ«–. this page is literally all about ti_bandgap_force_single_read, and it's lowkey one of the cutest little helpers in the bandgap fam.


✨ NAME ✨

ti_bandgap_force_single_read β€” executes 1 single ADC conversion. one. single. conversion. no more, no less. it's giving "one and done" energy πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ti_bandgap_force_single_read (struct ti_bandgap *bgp , int id );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • bgp β€” pointer to struct ti_bandgap. this is the main character, the whole bandgap situation, you can't do anything without it 🫢
  • id β€” the sensor id which it is desired to read 1 temperature. like, which sensor's temp do we want? that one. that's the vibe check ✨

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what does it even do? it's used to initialize the conversion state machine and set it to a valid state. literally setting the vibes right so the thing can actually function 😭

when's it called? during device initialization and context restore events. so like, when the device first wakes up and whenever we gotta restore context. it's the "okay everyone, we're back, let's get into formation" moment 🧚


πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

returns 0. that's it. that's the whole return value. no drama, no surprises, just 0 πŸ‘‘

ngl, a function that always hands you a 0 is highkey iconic β€” zero anxiety, zero "is this an error code" spiraling πŸ’€
