iio_info does not detect my device

Hi BMSProject , I think I found the problem, assuming you're using the EVAL-AD5593r-PMDZ on the PMD-RPI-INTZ hat. The Pmod has a 100k pullup resistor on RESET, and these lines are tied to GPIO13 and GPIO17 on the Pmod connectors. These are set as inputs, but with weak internal pulldowns enabled, confirmed with:

sudo raspi-gpio get:

...

GPIO 13: level=0 fsel=0 func=INPUT pull=DOWN
...
GPIO 17: level=0 fsel=0 func=INPUT pull=DOWN

...

and indeed I measured the voltage at about 1.1V, which may have initially been read as high by the AD5593r, but then low (it's marginal.)

There are several ways to solve this, but adding:

gpio=13,17=pu,ip

to /boot/config.txt did the trick on my setup. I'll add this to the user guide.

Hi Mark, thank you for your response. that indeed solved the issue but I still cannot detect both of the DACs at the same time. this is the output of terminal when running iio_info and it only detects one extra device instead of two when both of the DACs are connected:

one more question. I am trying to use these DACs to get voltage levels of 0.1V to 1.6V to feed to my circuit. Do you know if I can do this using PyADDI-IIO?

Hi BMSProject , sorry for the delay. Have you set the two devices to two different addresses? You will also need to enable two instances of the device tree overlay, one with"

,addr=0x11

appended.

If you don't see the two devices after that, you can scan the I2C bus with:

i2cdetect -y 1

You should see a number for a device that does not have a driver bound to it, and "UU" for those that do.
