1 | LP5521/LP5523/LP55231 Common Driver | ||
2 | =================================== | ||

6 | Description | ||
7 | ----------- | ||
8 | LP5521, LP5523/55231 have common features as below. | ||
9 | |||
10 | Register access via the I2C | ||
11 | Device initialization/deinitialization | ||
12 | Create LED class devices for multiple output channels | ||
13 | Device attributes for user-space interface | ||
14 | Program memory for running LED patterns | ||
15 | |||
16 | The LP55xx common driver provides these features using exported functions. | ||
17 | lp55xx_init_device() / lp55xx_deinit_device() | ||
18 | lp55xx_register_leds() / lp55xx_unregister_leds() | ||
19 | lp55xx_regsister_sysfs() / lp55xx_unregister_sysfs() | ||
20 | |||
21 | ( Driver Structure Data ) | ||
22 | |||
23 | In lp55xx common driver, two different data structure is used. | ||
24 | |||
25 | o lp55xx_led | ||
26 | control multi output LED channels such as led current, channel index. | ||
27 | o lp55xx_chip | ||
28 | general chip control such like the I2C and platform data. | ||
29 | |||
30 | For example, LP5521 has maximum 3 LED channels. | ||
31 | LP5523/55231 has 9 output channels. | ||
32 | |||
33 | lp55xx_chip for LP5521 ... lp55xx_led #1 | ||
34 | lp55xx_led #2 | ||
35 | lp55xx_led #3 | ||
36 | |||
37 | lp55xx_chip for LP5523 ... lp55xx_led #1 | ||
38 | lp55xx_led #2 | ||
39 | . | ||
40 | . | ||
41 | lp55xx_led #9 | ||
42 | |||
43 | ( Chip Dependent Code ) | ||
44 | |||
45 | To support device specific configurations, special structure | ||
46 | 'lpxx_device_config' is used. | ||
47 | |||
48 | Maximum number of channels | ||
49 | Reset command, chip enable command | ||
50 | Chip specific initialization | ||
51 | Brightness control register access | ||
52 | Setting LED output current | ||
53 | Program memory address access for running patterns | ||
54 | Additional device specific attributes | ||
55 | |||
56 | ( Firmware Interface ) | ||
57 | |||
58 | LP55xx family devices have the internal program memory for running | ||
59 | various LED patterns. | ||
60 | This pattern data is saved as a file in the user-land or | ||
61 | hex byte string is written into the memory through the I2C. | ||
62 | LP55xx common driver supports the firmware interface. | ||
63 | |||
64 | LP55xx chips have three program engines. | ||
65 | To load and run the pattern, the programming sequence is following. | ||
66 | (1) Select an engine number (1/2/3) | ||
67 | (2) Mode change to load | ||
68 | (3) Write pattern data into selected area | ||
69 | (4) Mode change to run | ||
70 | |||
71 | The LP55xx common driver provides simple interfaces as below. | ||
72 | select_engine : Select which engine is used for running program | ||
73 | run_engine : Start program which is loaded via the firmware interface | ||
74 | firmware : Load program data | ||
75 | |||
76 | For example, run blinking pattern in engine #1 of LP5521 | ||
77 | echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine | ||
78 | echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading | ||
79 | echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data | ||
80 | echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading | ||
81 | echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine | ||
82 | |||
83 | For example, run blinking pattern in engine #3 of LP55231 | ||
84 | echo 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine | ||
85 | echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading | ||
86 | echo "9d0740ff7e0040007e00a0010000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/data | ||
87 | echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading | ||
88 | echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine | ||
89 | |||
90 | To start blinking patterns in engine #2 and #3 simultaneously, | ||
91 | for idx in 2 3 | ||
92 | do | ||
93 | echo $idx > /sys/class/leds/red/device/select_engine | ||
94 | sleep 0.1 | ||
95 | echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading | ||
96 | echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data | ||
97 | echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading | ||
98 | done | ||
99 | echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/red/device/run_engine | ||
100 | |||
101 | Here is another example for LP5523. | ||
102 | echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine | ||
103 | echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading | ||
104 | echo "9d80400004ff05ff437f0000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/data | ||
105 | echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading | ||
106 | echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine | ||
107 | |||
108 | As soon as 'loading' is set to 0, registered callback is called. | ||
109 | Inside the callback, the selected engine is loaded and memory is updated. | ||
110 | To run programmed pattern, 'run_engine' attribute should be enabled. | ||
111 | |||
112 | ( 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' ) | ||
113 | The sequence of running the program data is common. | ||
114 | But each device has own specific register addresses for commands. | ||
115 | To support this, 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' are configurable in each driver. | ||
116 | run_engine : Control the selected engine | ||
117 | firmware_cb : The callback function after loading the firmware is done. | ||
118 | Chip specific commands for loading and updating program memory. | ||
