LTC2686 library for Raspberry Pico or Arduino

Hi, 

Someone is already looking into this.

Hi,

For now you can refer to the ltc2688 no-OS drivers on github. As LTC2686 and LTC2688 are of the same family, same drivers can be used to communicate with the LTC2686 with little modification in the drivers code. 

We're in the process of releasing console based application code for LTC2688 by next week. Will keep you posted with updates on this. 

Hi, thank you for the response. I download the LTC2688 files. Is there some additional documentation available? I'm not too skilled in C, so it's difficult for me to understand how to use the driver just from the source code.

Hi,

We do have a detailed guide on how to use the no-OS device drivers. Please refer to the following link: Understanding and Using the No-OS and Platform Drivers | Analog Devices

As mentioned before, we're in the process of releasing console based application code for LTC2688 by this week. Until then you can refer to the no-OS drivers for LTC2688.

Hi, 

The example code for LTC2688 has been released and you can find it here.
With little modification in the code, the firmware can be used with LTC2686.

Since the Arduico core for pico board is based on mbed-OS, the same example code can be migrated easily to work with pico board.

Hi,

I'm glad to inform that the existing ltc2688 mbed console based example code now support ltc2686 as well.
I'll request you refer to this code for your project development:
LTC268X Mbed Example [Analog Devices Wiki]

Hi, 

The no-OS drivers have now extended their support for the pico platform. You can leverage the same for your project. Here is the link to it:

Please refer to the page below on how to use no-OS platform drivers:

Hello, thank you for the raspberry pico code, but I'm not sure how to use it. The LTC2686 uses SPI communication, so I took a look at pico_spi.c, but it seems to me that it is just a library to send a SPI commands. It's not clear to me how to simply a voltage to a specific channel. For example, what should I pass as parameter to the functions?

Is there any sample code available that shows how to use the no-os drivers?

Maybe I'm missing something, but some dependecies includes in the pico_spi.c and pico_spi.h are not included in the repository. 

#include "pico/stdlib.h"
#include "hardware/resets.h"
#include "hardware/spi.h"

Could you help me to compile and example code? Sorry if my coding experience is too low.
