Kernel-4.18.0-80.el8_pwm-lp3943

TI/National Semiconductor LP3943 PWM controller

Required properties:

  • compatible: “ti,lp3943-pwm”
  • #pwm-cells: Should be 2. See pwm.txt in this directory for a
            description of the cells format.
            Note that this hardware limits the period length to the
            range 6250~1600000.
    
  • ti,pwm0 or ti,pwm1: Output pin number(s) for PWM channel 0 or 1.
    0 = output 0
    1 = output 1
    .
    .
    15 = output 15

Example:
PWM 0 is for RGB LED brightness control
PWM 1 is for brightness control of LP8557 backlight device

lp3943@60 {
compatible = “ti,lp3943”;
reg = <0x60>;

    /*
     * PWM 0 : output 8, 9 and 10
     * PWM 1 : output 15
     */

        compatible = "ti,lp3943-pwm";
        #pwm-cells = <2>;
        ti,pwm0 = <8 9 10>;
        ti,pwm1 = <15>;
    };
