PROFILE

Chris Packham

Worked on enhancing hardware monitoring capabilities for the TI INA2xx family across the torvalds/linux and geerlingguy/linux repositories. Delivered a new device tree binding for the INA780, enabling expanded hardware monitoring support through careful updates in C and YAML. Improved the reliability of temperature sensing for the INA238 by refining clamp logic, which prevents incorrect readings and supports safer thermal management. Focused on kernel development and device tree bindings, the work strengthened data integrity and monitoring readiness for these devices. The approach emphasized targeted, maintainable changes that addressed both feature expansion and bug resolution within the Linux kernel ecosystem.
