Ah, so both STK3310 and STK36C61 have register 0x02 for integration time and
gain configurations that applies for all light/color channels. I think changing
to compare with IIO_PROXIMITY makes sense then.

Having a closer look at the data sheet I found for STK36C61, I noticed registers
0x13 and 0x14 are not listed. Does the newer part has ambient light sensing
besides the clear channel?


With best regards,
