31.Dt MCP3KADC 4
32.Os
33.Sh NAME
34.Nm mcp3kadc
35.Nd Microchip 3x0x SAR analog to digital converter
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "mcp3kadc* at spi? slave ? flags N"
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver reports the current voltage on the chip's ADC channels through the
42.Xr envsys 4
43API.
44The driver calculates these values according to the currently selected
45reference voltage
46.Li ( Vref ) .
47It can be changed through the
48.Xr sysctl 8
49node
50.Li hw.mcp3kadc0.vref .
51.Pp
52The following table shows the supported chips.
53The type of the chip can be selected with the
54.Ar flags
55argument in the config file.

71The following
72.Xr sysctl 3
73variables are provided:
74.Bl -tag -width indent
75.It hw.mcp3kadc0.vref
76Defines the reference voltage on the chip's
77.Li Vref
78pin in millivolts (mV).
79It defaults to the ADC's maximum output value + 1
80in millivolts (e.g., 4096 for a 12-bit ADC).
