[PATCH] vf610_adc: Fix internal temperature calculation

From: Bhuvanchandra DV
Date: Wed Sep 23 2015 - 11:18:12 EST


There is an observed temperature difference of ~20ÂC with the
internal temperature reading and the temperature measured on
SoC package. Existing calculations consider the typical values
provided in datasheet. Those typical values are valid for
VREFH_ADC at 3.0V. Voltage at 25ÂC is different for different
VREFH_ADC voltages. With VREFH_ADC at 3.3V, voltage at 25ÂC is
0.699V. Hence update the VTEMP25 to 0.699V which gives ADCR@Temp25
as 867 and the final temperature readings differs with ~5ÂC from
the external readings.

Formula for finding ADCR@Temp25:
ADCR@Temp25 = (ADCR@Vdd * V@TEMP25 * 10) / VDDconv

ADCR@Vdd for 12-Bit ADC = 4095
VDDconv = VREFH_ADC * 10

VREFH_ADC@xxxx
ADCR@Temp25 = (4095 * .699 * 10) / 33
ADCR@Temp25 ~= 867

| VREFH_ADC | V@TEMP25 | VDDconv | ADCR@Temp25 |
| 3.0V | 0.696mV | 30 | 950 |
| 3.3V | 0.699mV | 33 | 867 |
