+ADXL345 driver
+===============
+
+This driver supports Analog Device's ADXL345/375 on SPI/I2C bus.
+
+1. Supported devices
+====================
+
+* `ADXL345 <https://www.analog.com/ADXL345>`_
+* `ADXL375 <https://www.analog.com/ADXL375>`_
+
+The ADXL345 is a generic purpose low power, 3-axis accelerometer with selectable
+measurement ranges. The ADXL345 supports the ±2 g, ±4 g, ±8 g, and ±16 g ranges.
+
+2. Device attributes
+====================
+
+Accelerometer measurements are always provided.
+
+Each IIO device, has a device folder under ``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX``,
+where X is the IIO index of the device. Under these folders reside a set of
+device files, depending on the characteristics and features of the hardware
+device in questions. These files are consistently generalized and documented in
+the IIO ABI documentation.
+
+The following table shows the ADXL345 related device files, found in the
+specific device folder path ``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX``.
+
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| 3-Axis Accelerometer related device files | Description |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_sampling_frequency | Currently selected sample rate. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_sampling_frequency_available | Available sampling frequency configurations. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_scale | Scale/range for the accelerometer channels. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_scale_available | Available scale ranges for the accelerometer channel. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_x_calibbias | Calibration offset for the X-axis accelerometer channel. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_x_raw | Raw X-axis accelerometer channel value. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_y_calibbias | y-axis acceleration offset correction |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_y_raw | Raw Y-axis accelerometer channel value. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_z_calibbias | Calibration offset for the Z-axis accelerometer channel. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+| in_accel_z_raw | Raw Z-axis accelerometer channel value. |
++-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Channel processed values
+-------------------------
+
+A channel value can be read from its _raw attribute. The value returned is the
+raw value as reported by the devices. To get the processed value of the channel,
+apply the following formula:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ processed value = (_raw + _offset) * _scale
+
+Where _offset and _scale are device attributes. If no _offset attribute is
+present, simply assume its value is 0.
+
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Channel type | Measurement unit |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Acceleration on X, Y, and Z axis | Meters per second squared |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+
+Sensor events
+-------------
+
+Particular IIO events will be triggered by the corresponding interrupts. The
+sensor driver supports no or one active INT line, where the sensor has two
+possible INT IOs. Configure the used INT line in the devicetree. If no INT line
+is configured, the sensor falls back to FIFO bypass mode and no events are
+possible, only X, Y and Z axis measurements are possible.
+
+The following table shows the ADXL345 related device files, found in the
+specific device folder path ``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/events``.

+
+Find a detailed description of a particular functionality in the sensor
+datasheet.
+
+Setting the ODR explicitly will result in estimated adjusted default values
+for the inactivity time detection, where higher frequencies shall default to
+longer wait periods, and vice versa. It is also possible to explicetly
+configure inactivity wait times, if the defaulting approach does not match
+application requirements. Setting 0 here, will fall back to default setting.
+
+The g range configuration also tries to estimate activity and inactivity
+thresholds when switching to another g range. The default range will be
+factorized by the relation of old range divided by new range. The value never
+becomes 0 and will be at least 1 and at most 255 i.e. 62.5g/LSB according to
+the datasheet. Nevertheless activity and inactivity thresholds can be
+overwritten by explicit values.
+
+When activity and inactivity events are enabled, the driver automatically will
+set link bit and autosleep bit. The link bit serially links the activity and
+inactivity functions. On the other side, the autosleep function switches the
+sensor to sleep mode if the inactivity function is enabled. This will reduce
+current consumption to the sub-12.5Hz rate.
+
+In dc-coupled operation, the current acceleration magnitude is compared
+directly with THRESH_ACT and THRESH_INACT registers to determine whether
+activity or inactivity was detected. In ac-coupled operation for activity
+detection, the acceleration value at the start of activity detection is taken
+as a reference value. New samples are then compared to this reference value.
+
+Single tap detection can be configured according to the datasheet by specifying
+threshold and duration. If only the single tap is in use, the single tap
+interrupt is triggered when the acceleration goes above threshold (i.e. DUR
+start) and below the threshold, as long as duration is not exceeded. If single
+tap and double tap are in use, the single tap is triggered when the doulbe tap
+event has been either validated or invalidated.
+
+For double tap configure additionally window and latency in [us]. Latency
+starts counting when the single tap goes below threshold and is a waiting
+period, any spikes here are ignored for double tap detection. After latency,
+the window starts. Any rise above threshold, with a consequent fall below
+threshold within window time, rises a double tap signal when going below
+threshold.
+
+A double tap event can be invalidated in three ways: If the suppress bit is set,
+any acceleration spike above the threshold already during the latency time
+invalidates the double tap detection immediately, i.e. during latence must not
+occur spikes for double tap detection with suppress bit set.
+A double tap event is invalidated if acceleration lies above the threshold at
+the start of the window time for the double tap detection.
+Additionally a double tap event can be invalidated if an acceleration exceeds
+the time limit for taps, set by duration register, since also for the double
+tap the same value for duration counts, i.e. when rising above threshold the
+fall below threshold has to be within duration time.
+
+A free fall event will be detected if the signal goes below the configured
+threshold, for the configured time [us].
+
+Note, that activity/inactivy, as also freefall is recommended for 12.5 Hz ODR
+up to 400 Hz.
