[PATCH 2/3] dt-bindings: iio: magnetometer: document the Allegro MicroSystems ALS31300 3-D Linear Hall Effect Sensor

From: Neil Armstrong
Date: Mon Oct 07 2024 - 09:15:19 EST


Document the bindings for the Allegro MicroSystems ALS31300 3-D Linear Hall
Effect Sensor controller by an I2C interface, mainly used in 3D head-on
motion sensing applications.

The device can be configured with different sensitivities in factory,
but the sensitivity value used to calculate value into the Gauss
unit is not available from registers, thus the sensitivity is
provided by the compatible/device-id string which is based
on the part number as described in the datasheet page 2.

The datasheet is available on the product website at [1].
