[PATCH] iio: light: veml6075: fix UV index reported at half value
From: Shardul Deshpande
Date: Fri Jun 26 2026 - 07:04:35 EST
veml6075_get_uvi_micro() normalises the UV index for the configured
integration time by dividing the summed, responsivity-weighted UVA/UVB
components by the integration-time scale factor relative to the 50 ms
base case (which is returned undivided).
The supported integration times are 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 ms, i.e.
the register field index int_index in 0..4 selects (50 << int_index) ms,
so the correct scale factor is 2^int_index == (1 << int_index).
The code instead divides by (2 << int_index) == 2^(int_index + 1), which
is twice the correct value. The reported UV index is therefore half of
the true value for every integration time except 50 ms (handled as a
separate case). As the driver powers up with VEML6075_IT_100_MS, the UV
index is reported at half value out of the box.
Divide by (1 << int_index) instead; this also matches the undivided
50 ms case (1 << 0 == 1).
