Yes, I did consider this, but, annoyingly, the kernel I2C primitives do not allow chaining of I2C buffers except as a 'repeated START' transaction, hence you need to copy the register address into a buffer followed by the data bytes, then send all as one transaction. (Could implement by saving content of previous byte in the reg map, replace with reg sddress value, sending bytes, then restoring original value ...) The data sheet flowchart actually says: "SubAddr(hex): 03 to 0F" suggesting that separate writes would be permissible. However, it's worth trying the single transfer approach. The version 1.0.1 document is actually a little more explicit in some cases, but I thought that since its version was earlier, it had been superceded. Will have another look at the sequence there since it's rather more prescriptive. > > Are you sure that you're using the exact algorithm from the datasheet? > You're better off storing the values that you plan to write, then > write them all at once in a single transaction. > > You might want to take a look at the tda18271 driver recently merged > into the master branch, located under dvb/frontends ... > > Perhaps this driver might be enough to bring up the tda18211-- I don't > have the spec for the 18211, so I cannot say that for sure, but I was > under the impression that the tda18211 is exactly a tda18271, but DVB > only. > > Let me know if there's anything that I can do to help you. > > Regards, > > Mike Krufky > Thanks for the suggestion !
