+Thine Electronics THC63LVD1024 LVDS decoder
+-------------------------------------------
+
+The THC63LVD1024 is a dual link LVDS receiver designed to convert LVDS
streams
+to parallel data outputs. The chip supports single/dual input/output modes,
+handling up to two two input LVDS stream and up to two digital CMOS/TTL
outputs.
+
+Single or dual operation modes, output data mapping and DDR output modes
are
+configured through input signals and the chip does not expose any control
bus.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Shall be "thine,thc63lvd1024"
+
+Optional properties:
+- vcc-supply: Power supply for TTL output and digital circuitry
+- cvcc-supply: Power supply for TTL CLOCKOUT signal
+- lvcc-supply: Power supply for LVDS inputs
+- pvcc-supply: Power supply for PLL circuitry
As explained in a comment to one of the previous versions of this series, I'm
tempted to make vcc-supply mandatory and drop the three other power supplies
for now, as I believe there's very little chance they will be connected to
separately controllable regulators (all supplies use the same voltage). In the
very unlikely event that this occurs in design we need to support in the
future, the cvcc, lvcc and pvcc supplies can be added later as optional
without breaking backward compatibility.
I'm okay with that.

Apart from that,

+- pdwn-gpios: Power down GPIO signal. Active low
powerdown-gpios is the semi-standard name.

right, I've also noticed it. If possible please avoid shortenings in
property names.

It is not shortening, it just follow pin name from decoder's datasheet.


+- oe-gpios: Output enable GPIO signal. Active high
+
And this one is also a not ever met property name, please consider to
rename it to 'enable-gpios', for instance display panels define it.


Again, it follows datasheet naming scheme. Has something changed in DT
conventions?

Seconded. My understanding is that the property name should reflect
what reported in the the chip manual. For THC63LVD1024 the enable and
power down pins are named 'OE' and 'PDWN' respectively.

But don't we need the vendor prefix in the prop names then, like "renesas,oe-gpios" then?

Thanks
