One thing here that I'm not too sure is the naming of the directory.
I'm starting to see in ADI more and more of this highly integrated devices... For
example this one [1], is something we have someone already working one
and it has ADCs, DAC, amplifiers. So, I'm just wondering if now
it's not the time where we just have a generic enough place for these kind
of "combo" devices? Being that said, I have no idea about what name we could
give :)
