Description
-----------
LP5521 can drive up to 3 channels. Leds can be controlled directly via
the led class control interface. Channels have generic names:
lp5521:channelx, where x is 0 .. 2
All three channels can be also controlled using the engine micro programs.
More details of the instructions can be found from the public data sheet.
Control interface for the engines:
x is 1 .. 3
enginex_mode : disabled, load, run
enginex_load : store program (visible only in engine load mode)
Example (start to blink the channel 2 led):
cd /sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel2/device
echo "load" > engine3_mode
echo "037f4d0003ff6000" > engine3_load
echo "run" > engine3_mode
stop the engine:
echo "disabled" > engine3_mode
sysfs contains a selftest entry.
The test communicates with the chip and checks that
the clock mode is automatically set to the requested one.
Each channel has its own led current settings.
/sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel0/led_current - RW
/sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel0/max_current - RO
Format: 10x mA i.e 10 means 1.0 mA
example platform data:
Note: chan_nr can have values between 0 and 2.
static struct lp5521_led_config lp5521_led_config[] = {
{
.chan_nr = 0,
.led_current = 50,
.max_current = 130,
}, {
.chan_nr = 1,
.led_current = 0,
.max_current = 130,
}, {
.chan_nr = 2,
.led_current = 0,
.max_current = 130,
}
};
static int lp5521_setup(void)
{
/* setup HW resources */
}
static void lp5521_release(void)
{
/* Release HW resources */
}
static void lp5521_enable(bool state)
{
/* Control of chip enable signal */
}
static struct lp5521_platform_data lp5521_platform_data = {
.led_config = lp5521_led_config,
.num_channels = ARRAY_SIZE(lp5521_led_config),
.clock_mode = LP5521_CLOCK_EXT,
.setup_resources = lp5521_setup,
.release_resources = lp5521_release,
.enable = lp5521_enable,
};
If the current is set to 0 in the platform data, that channel is
disabled and it is not visible in the sysfs.
