| description: | |
| This document defines device tree properties common to several classes of |
| display panels. It doesn't constitue a device tree binding specification by |
| itself but is meant to be referenced by device tree bindings. |
| |
| When referenced from panel device tree bindings the properties defined in this |
| document are defined as follows. The panel device tree bindings are |
| responsible for defining whether each property is required or optional. |
| |
| properties: |
| # Descriptive Properties |
| width-mm: |
| description: |
| Specifies the width of the physical area where images are displayed. This |
| property is expressed in millimeters and rounded to the closest unit. |
| |
| height-mm: |
| description: |
| Specifies the height of the physical area where images are displayed. This |
| property is expressed in millimeters and rounded to the closest unit. |
| |
| label: |
| description: | |
| The label property specifies a symbolic name for the panel as a |
| string suitable for use by humans. It typically contains a name inscribed |
| on the system (e.g. as an affixed label) or specified in the system's |
| documentation (e.g. in the user's manual). |
| |
| If no such name exists, and unless the property is mandatory according to |
| device tree bindings, it shall rather be omitted than constructed of |
| non-descriptive information. For instance an LCD panel in a system that |
| contains a single panel shall not be labelled "LCD" if that name is not |
| inscribed on the system or used in a descriptive fashion in system |
| documentation. |
| |
| rotation: |
| description: |
| Display rotation in degrees counter clockwise (0,90,180,270) |
| $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 |
| enum: [0, 90, 180, 270] |
| |
| # Display Timings |
| panel-timing: |
| description: |
| Most display panels are restricted to a single resolution and |
| require specific display timings. The panel-timing subnode expresses those |
| timings. |
| $ref: panel-timing.yaml# |
| |
| display-timings: |
| description: |
| Some display panels support several resolutions with different timings. |
| The display-timings bindings supports specifying several timings and |
| optionally specifying which is the native mode. |
| $ref: display-timings.yaml# |
| |
| # Connectivity |
| port: |
| type: object |
| |
| ports: |
| type: object |
| description: |
| Panels receive video data through one or multiple connections. While |
| the nature of those connections is specific to the panel type, the |
| connectivity is expressed in a standard fashion using ports as specified |
| in the device graph bindings defined in |
| Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt. |
| |
| ddc-i2c-bus: |
| $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle |
| description: |
| Some panels expose EDID information through an I2C-compatible |
| bus such as DDC2 or E-DDC. For such panels the ddc-i2c-bus contains a |
| phandle to the system I2C controller connected to that bus. |
| |
| no-hpd: |
| type: boolean |
| description: |
| This panel is supposed to communicate that it's ready via HPD |
| (hot plug detect) signal, but the signal isn't hooked up so we should |
| hardcode the max delay from the panel spec when powering up the panel. |
| |
| hpd-gpios: |
| maxItems: 1 |
| description: |
| If Hot Plug Detect (HPD) is connected to a GPIO in the system rather |
| than a dedicated HPD pin the pin can be specified here. |
| |
| # Control I/Os |
| |
| # Many display panels can be controlled through pins driven by GPIOs. The nature |
| # and timing of those control signals are device-specific and left for panel |
| # device tree bindings to specify. The following GPIO specifiers can however be |
| # used for panels that implement compatible control signals. |
| |
| enable-gpios: |
| maxItems: 1 |
| description: | |
| Specifier for a GPIO connected to the panel enable control signal. The |
| enable signal is active high and enables operation of the panel. This |
| property can also be used for panels implementing an active low power down |
| signal, which is a negated version of the enable signal. Active low enable |
| signals (or active high power down signals) can be supported by inverting |
| the GPIO specifier polarity flag. |
| |
| Note that the enable signal control panel operation only and must not be |
| confused with a backlight enable signal. |
| |
| reset-gpios: |
| maxItems: 1 |
| description: |
| Specifier for a GPIO connected to the panel reset control signal. |
| The reset signal is active low and resets the panel internal logic |
| while active. Active high reset signals can be supported by inverting the |
| GPIO specifier polarity flag. |
| |
| te-gpios: |
| maxItems: 1 |
| description: |
| GPIO spec for the tearing effect synchronization signal. |
| The tearing effect signal is active high. Active low signals can be |
| supported by inverting the GPIO specifier polarity flag. |
| |
| # Power |
| power-supply: |
| description: |
| Display panels require power to be supplied. While several panels need |
| more than one power supply with panel-specific constraints governing the |
| order and timings of the power supplies, in many cases a single power |
| supply is sufficient, either because the panel has a single power rail, or |
| because all its power rails can be driven by the same supply. In that case |
| the power-supply property specifies the supply powering the panel as a |
| phandle to a regulator. |
| |
| # Backlight |
| |
| # Most display panels include a backlight. Some of them also include a backlight |
| # controller exposed through a control bus such as I2C or DSI. Others expose |
| # backlight control through GPIO, PWM or other signals connected to an external |
| # backlight controller. |
| |
| backlight: |
| $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle |
| description: |
| For panels whose backlight is controlled by an external backlight |
| controller, this property contains a phandle that references the |
| controller. |
