    V4L/DVB (7038): USB radio driver for Silicon Labs Si470x FM Radio Receivers · 78656acd
    Tobias Lorenz 提交于
    this patch adds a new driver for the Silicon Labs Si470x FM Radio Receiver. It
    should also work for the identical ADS/Tech FM Radio Receiver (formerly
    Instant FM Music) as soon as I find out the USB Vendor and Product ID.
    
    The driver is inspired by several other USB and radio drivers, but mainly from
    the D-Link DSB-R100 USB radio (dsbr100.c).
    
    The USB stick currently has an Si4701 FM RDS radio receiver. But the other
    Si470x devices are pin and register compatible, so that in the future the
    driver can easily be patched to support these too. Therefore I named the
    driver radio-si470x and the configuration option usb-si470x.
    
    The driver itself just provides the control function over the radio. For
    getting audio back, the device support the USB audio class, which is
    implemented in the already existing driver.
    
    I tested the driver in the last days, until it now satisfies all my
    functionality and robustness requirements. The application I used for testing
    was kradio.
