binding for LTC2941 and LTC2943 battery gauges
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Both the LTC2941 and LTC2943 measure battery capacity.
|
||
|
|
The LTC2943 is compatible with the LTC2941, it adds voltage and
|
||
|
|
temperature monitoring, and uses a slightly different conversion
|
||
|
|
formula for the charge counter.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Required properties:
|
||
|
|
- compatible: Should contain "ltc2941" or "ltc2943" 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 = "ltc2943";
|
||
|
|
reg = <0x64>;
|
||
|
|
lltc,resistor-sense = <15>;
|
||
|
|
lltc,prescaler-exponent = <5>; /* 2^(2*5) = 1024 */
|
||
|
|
};
