[RFC PATCH v2 2/5] dt_bindings: ROHM BD99954 Charger

From: Matti Vaittinen
Date: Fri Feb 14 2020 - 02:37:07 EST


The ROHM BD99954 is a Battery Management LSI for 1-4 cell Lithium-Ion
secondary battery. Intended to be used in space-constraint equipment such
as Low profile Notebook PC, Tablets and other applications. BD99954
provides a Dual-source Battery Charger, two port BC1.2 detection and a
Battery Monitor.

It would probably be nice if the charger DT binding yaml could somehow
be listing and evaluating properties that it can use from static battery
nodes - and perhaps some warning could be emitted if unsupported
properties are given from battery nodes(?) Just some thinking here.
What if the charger ignores for example the current limits from battery
node (I am not sure but I think a few may ignore) - I guess it would be
nice to give a nudge to a person who added those properties in his DT
if they won't have any impact? Any thoughts?

+ The ROHM BD99954 is a Battery Management LSI for 1-4 cell Lithium-Ion
+ secondary battery intended to be used in space-constraint equipment such

+Optional properties:
+- monitored-battery: phandle of battery characteristics devicetree node
+ The charger uses the following battery properties:
+ + precharge-current-microamp: maximum charge current during precharge
+ phase (typically 20% of battery capacity).
+ + charge-term-current-microamp: a charge cycle terminates when the
+ battery voltage is above recharge threshold, and the current is below
+ this setting (typically 10% of battery capacity).
+ See also Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/supply/battery.txt
+- ti,system-minimum-microvolt: when power is connected and the battery is below
+ minimum system voltage, the system will be regulated above this setting.
