+IIO Device characteristics
+==========================
+
+The AD4000 series driver supports differential and pseudo-differential ADCs.
+
+The span compression feature available in AD4000 series devices can be
+enabled/disabled by changing the ``_scale_available`` attribute of the voltage
+channel. Note that span compression configuration requires writing to AD4000
+configuration register, which is only possible when the ADC is wired in 3-wire
+turbo mode, and the SPI controller is ``SPI_MOSI_IDLE_HIGH`` capable. If those
+conditions are not met, no ``_scale_available`` attribute is provided.
+
+Besides that, differential and pseudo-differential voltage channels present
+slightly different sysfs interfaces.
+
+Pseudo-differential ADCs
+------------------------
+
+Typical voltage channel attributes of a pseudo-differential AD4000 series device:
+
++-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+| Voltage Channel Attributes | Description |
++===========================================+==========================================+
+| ``in_voltage0_raw`` | Raw ADC output code. |
++-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+| ``in_voltage0_offset`` | Offset to convert raw value to mV. |
++-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+| ``in_voltage0_scale`` | Scale factor to convert raw value to mV. |
++-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+| ``in_voltage0_scale_available`` | Toggles input span compression |
++-------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+

+SPI offload support
+-------------------
+
+To be able to achieve the maximum sample rate, the driver can be used with SPI
+offload engines such as the one usually present in `AXI SPI Engine`_, to provide
+SPI offload support.
+
+.. _AXI SPI Engine: http://analogdevicesinc.github.io/hdl/projects/pulsar_adc/index.html
+
+To keep up with SPI offloading transfer speeds, the ADC must be connected either
+in 3-wire turbo mode or in 3-wire without busy indicator mode and have SPI
+controller CS line connected to the CNV pin.
+
+When set for SPI offload support, the IIO device will provide different
+interfaces.
+
+* Either ``in_voltage0_sampling_frequency`` or
+ ``in_voltage0-voltage1_sampling_frequency`` file is provided to allow setting
+ the sample rate.
+* IIO trigger device is not provided (no ``trigger`` directory).
+* ``timestamp`` channel is not provided.
+
+Also, because the ADC output has a one sample latency (delay) when the device is
+wired in "3-wire" mode and only one transfer per sample is done when using SPI
+offloading, the first data sample in the buffer is not valid because it contains
+the output of an earlier conversion result.
