+Parallel to LVDS Encoder
+------------------------
+
+This binding supports the parallel to LVDS encoders that don't require any
+configuration.
+
+LVDS is a physical layer specification defined in ANSI/TIA/EIA-644-A. Multiple
+incompatible data link layers have been used over time to transmit image data
+to LVDS panels. This binding targets devices compatible with the following
+specifications only.
+
+[JEIDA] "Digital Interface Standards for Monitor", JEIDA-59-1999, February
+1999 (Version 1.0), Japan Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA)
+[LDI] "Open LVDS Display Interface", May 1999 (Version 0.95), National
+Semiconductor
+[VESA] "VESA Notebook Panel Standard", October 2007 (Version 1.0), Video
+Electronics Standards Association (VESA)
+
+Those devices have been marketed under the FPD-Link and FlatLink brand names
+among others.
+
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: Must be "lvds-encoder"
+
+Required nodes:
+
+This device has two video ports. Their connections are modeled using the OF
+graph bindings specified in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt.
+
+- Video port 0 for parallel input
+- Video port 1 for LVDS output
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+lvds-encoder {
+ compatible = "lvds-encoder";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ ports {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ port@0 {
+ reg = <0>;
+
+ lvds_enc_in: endpoint {
+ remote-endpoint = <&display_out_rgb>;
+ };
+ };
+
+ port@1 {
+ reg = <1>;
+
+ lvds_enc_out: endpoint {
+ remote-endpoint = <&lvds_panel_in>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
+};
