Lars, I've cc'd you for the various Analog devices dds and frequency devices.
Ideally we want a consistent interface for devices capturing info about these
waveforms and devices generating them. Please CC anyone else who might have
opinions. This interface is not obvious, so we need to spend some time getting
it right.

I wonder if we are being a little bit too specific in this interface. What
other things
might we want to capture about a pulse? Right now you have it either capturing
the
'high width' or the 'low width'. Presumably there are devices that will capture
both via different 'channels'?
So lets list what we might capture about a wave - including values computable
from
the base quantities.
* High time
* Low time
* Mark Space Ratio
* Period (rising edge to rising edge or falling edge to falling edge).
(This might be treated as instantaneous frequency - as would be done in
frequency modulation)
* Peak to peak Amplitude.
For imperfect waves
* Rise time,
* Fall time,
Funnily enough this is pretty much what an oscilloscope will allow you to
automatically
measure on a square wave...
So next question is base units for the time measurements.
I'd prefer the base to be seconds rather than nano seconds
for consistency with the other time measurements already in the ABI. All it
will do is
change the type for scale factors output in sysfs. Userspace can trivially
convert
back to nano seconds if that is what it wants. If we need to futher expand our
small
units, then that is fine.
Next, the question is do we want to cover other waveform types. The dds drivers
that
are most relevant are still in staging, so we can mess around with their
interfaces
without 'too' much pain. They allow specifying of a waveform 'type' (square,
triangle,
sine so far I think).
So do we want to have an iio type corresponding to a time feature of a waveform
then
use modifiers for the various characteristics. I'll describe this in the sysfs
attribute
names (they translate directly into the buffer channels, but are easier to
read!)
We do have a few modifiers that lead to different units already so there is
precedence
e.g. IIO_MOD_SUM_SQUARED_X_Y_Z, (often (m/s^2)^2
for the following (as long as well documented!)
in_waveformX_type - (Square, triangle etc).
in_waveformX_hightime_raw
in_waveformX_lowtime_raw
in_waveformX_period_raw
in_waveformX_markspace_raw
in_waveformX_peaktopeak_raw (similar to existing peak abi elements - these are
not typically
read from a buffer and hence we have rushed them in
as a modifier).
in_waveformX_risetime_raw
in_waveformX_falltime_raw
Would this work for both this sort of capture device and for synthesis chips?
