binding for LTC2941, LTC2942, LTC2943 and LTC2944 battery gauges
|
|
|
|
All chips measure battery capacity.
|
|
The LTC2942 is pin compatible with the LTC2941, it adds voltage and
|
|
temperature monitoring, and is runtime detected. LTC2943 and LTC2944
|
|
is software compatible, uses a slightly different conversion formula
|
|
for the charge counter and adds voltage, current and temperature monitoring.
|
|
|
|
Required properties:
|
|
- compatible: Should contain "lltc,ltc2941", "lltc,ltc2942", "lltc,ltc2943"
|
|
or "lltc,ltc2944" which also indicates the type of I2C chip attached.
|
|
- reg: The 7-bit I2C address.
|
|
- lltc,resistor-sense: The sense resistor value in milli-ohms. Can be a 32-bit
|
|
negative value when the battery has been connected to the wrong end of the
|
|
resistor.
|
|
- lltc,prescaler-exponent: The prescaler exponent as explained in the datasheet.
|
|
This determines the range and accuracy of the gauge. The value is programmed
|
|
into the chip only if it differs from the current setting. The setting is
|
|
lost when the battery is disconnected.
|
|
|
|
Example from the Topic Miami Florida board:
|
|
|
|
fuelgauge: ltc2943@64 {
|
|
compatible = "lltc,ltc2943";
|
|
reg = <0x64>;
|
|
lltc,resistor-sense = <15>;
|
|
lltc,prescaler-exponent = <5>; /* 2^(2*5) = 1024 */
|
|
};
