[PATCH] adcxx: Fix for single-channel ADCs

From: José Miguel Gonçalves
Date: Fri Feb 12 2010 - 09:49:20 EST


Hi,

While testing a ADC121S021 in an embedded board with a S3C2142 SoC (ARM core), I have found that the 'adcxx' driver does not handle correctly single channel ADCs from this chip family.
For single channel chips you must only issue one read transfer for correct measurement.
