The values specify + the control voltage needed to generate the corresponding + regulator-min/max-microvolt output voltage. + +Optional properties: +-------------------- +- ovp-threshold-percent : overvoltage protection (OVP) threshold of the + regulator in percent. Some regulators have an OVP + circuitry which shuts down the regulator when the + actual output voltage deviates beyond a certain + margin from the expected value for a given control + voltage. On larger voltage decreases this can occur + undesiredly since the output voltage does not adjust + immediately to changes in the control voltage. To + avoid this situation the vctrl driver breaks down + larger voltage decreases into multiple steps, where + each step is within the OVP threshold. +- min-slew-down-rate : Describes how slowly the regulator voltage will decay + down in the worst case (lightest expected load). + Specified in uV / us (like main regulator ramp rate). + This value is required when ovp-threshold-percent is + specified. + +Example: + + vctrl-reg { + compatible = "vctrl-regulator"; + regulator-name = "vctrl_reg"; + + ctrl-supply = <&ctrl_reg>; + + regulator-min-microvolt = <800000>; + regulator-max-microvolt = <1500000>; + + ctrl-voltage-range = <200000 500000>; + + min-slew-down-rate = <225>; + ovp-threshold-percent = <16>; + }; |
