[PATCH RFC v2 2/3] dt-bindings: iio: adc: Add excitation current sources properties

From: Kurt Borja

Date: Mon Jun 22 2026 - 15:32:21 EST


Some ADCs incorporate current sources that provide excitation current to
resistive temperature devices (RTDs), thermistors, diodes and other
resistive sensors that require constant current biasing.
