The Infineon TLV493D is a Low-Power 3D Magnetic Sensor. The Sensor applications includes joysticks, control elements (white goods, multifunction knops), or electric meters (anti tampering) and any other application that requires accurate angular measurements at low power consumptions. The Sensor is configured over I2C, and as part of Sensor measurement data it provides 3-Axis magnetic fields and temperature core measurement. The driver supports raw value read and buffered input via external trigger to allow streaming values with the same sensing timestamp. While the sensor has an interrupt pin multiplexed with an I2C SCL pin. But for bus configurations interrupt(INT) is not recommended, unless timing constraints between I2C data transfers and interrupt pulses are monitored and aligned. The Sensor's I2C register map and mode information is described in product User Manual [1].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
