Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your helpful comments, and I have some questions want to
ask you below.

I want to confirm with you again,
because my ABI file duplicates with standard sysfs-bus-iio (voltage,
current, and temperature channels),
Should I just remove this ABI file and modify the code of mt6370-adc
to meet your expectations??

Yes, this description is based on the data sheet.

Ok, I got it!

Shall I modify the scale of temperature to milli degrees in
mt6370-adc.c and remove this item??
