-/* Data transmission timing (nano seconds) */
+/*
+ * Data transmission timing:
+ * Data bits are encoded as pulse length (high time) on the data line.
+ * 0-bit: 22-30uS -- typically 26uS (AM2302)
+ * 1-bit: 68-75uS -- typically 70uS (AM2302)
+ * The acutal timings also depend on the properties of the cable, with
+ * longer cables typically making pulses shorter.
+ *
+ * Our decoding depends on the time resolution of the system:
+ * timeres > 34uS ... don't know what a 1-tick pulse is
+ * 34uS > timeres > 30uS ... no problem (30kHz and 32kHz clocks)
+ * 30uS > timeres > 23uS ... don't know what a 2-tick pulse is
+ * timeres < 23uS ... no problem
+ *
+ * Luckily clocks in the 33-44kHz range are quite uncommon, so we can
+ * support most systems if the threshold for decoding a pulse as 1-bit
+ * is chosen carefully. If somebody really wants to support clocks around
+ * 40kHz, where this driver is most unreliable, there are two options.
+ * a) select an implementation using busy loop polling on those systems
+ * b) use the checksum to do some probabilistic decoding
