Hi,
Sorry, I have some trouble understanding the specifics of this. Is EXTI a
hardware input signal into the ADC that automatically triggers a conversion
when asserted? If yes how is it configured which external signal is used
here. Your bindings suggest that any GPIO can be used, but the driver only
differentiates between EXTI on or EXTI off.
Or is this just a software triggered conversion? The GPIO triggers a
software interrupt routine and the interrupt routine than triggers conversion?
