Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: adau17x1: Workaround for noise bug in ADC
Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2017 15:31:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.11.1709061745140.14549@lnxricardw1.se.axis.com> (raw)


The ADC in the ADAU1361 (and possibly other Analog Devices codecs) 
exhibits a cyclic variation in the noise floor (in our test setup between 
-87 and -93 dB), a new value being attained within this range whenever a 
new capture stream is started. The cycle repeats after about 10 or 11 
restarts.

The workaround recommended by the manufacturer is to toggle the ADOSR bit 
in the Converter Control 0 register each time a new capture stream is 
started.

I have verified that the patch fixes this problem on the ADAU1361, and 
according to the manufacturer toggling the bit in question in this manner 
will at least have no detrimental effect on other chips served by this 
driver.
