1SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses 2 3SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device 4and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this 5discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in 6SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers 7in slave mode. 8 9The SPI master node requires the following properties: 10- #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select 11 address on the SPI bus. 12- #size-cells - should be zero. 13- compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names 14 recommended practice. 15No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed 16that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus. 17However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for 18assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is 19flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the 20assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage 21chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to 22support describing the chip select layout. 23 24Optional properties: 25- cs-gpios - gpios chip select. 26- num-cs - total number of chipselects. 27 28If cs-gpios is used the number of chip selects will be increased automatically 29with max(cs-gpios > hw cs). 30 31So if for example the controller has 2 CS lines, and the cs-gpios 32property looks like this: 33 34cs-gpios = <&gpio1 0 0>, <0>, <&gpio1 1 0>, <&gpio1 2 0>; 35 36Then it should be configured so that num_chipselect = 4 with the 37following mapping: 38 39cs0 : &gpio1 0 0 40cs1 : native 41cs2 : &gpio1 1 0 42cs3 : &gpio1 2 0 43 44SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can 45contain the following properties. 46- reg - (required) chip select address of device. 47- compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names 48 recommended practice. 49- spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz. 50- spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires 51 inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode. 52- spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires 53 shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode. 54- spi-cs-high - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires 55 chip select active high. 56- spi-3wire - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires 57 3-wire mode. 58- spi-lsb-first - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires 59 LSB first mode. 60- spi-tx-bus-width - (optional) The bus width (number of data wires) that is 61 used for MOSI. Defaults to 1 if not present. 62- spi-rx-bus-width - (optional) The bus width (number of data wires) that is 63 used for MISO. Defaults to 1 if not present. 64- spi-rx-delay-us - (optional) Microsecond delay after a read transfer. 65- spi-tx-delay-us - (optional) Microsecond delay after a write transfer. 66 67Some SPI controllers and devices support Dual and Quad SPI transfer mode. 68It allows data in the SPI system to be transferred using 2 wires (DUAL) or 4 69wires (QUAD). 70Now the value that spi-tx-bus-width and spi-rx-bus-width can receive is 71only 1 (SINGLE), 2 (DUAL) and 4 (QUAD). 72Dual/Quad mode is not allowed when 3-wire mode is used. 73 74If a gpio chipselect is used for the SPI slave the gpio number will be passed 75via the SPI master node cs-gpios property. 76 77SPI example for an MPC5200 SPI bus: 78 spi@f00 { 79 #address-cells = <1>; 80 #size-cells = <0>; 81 compatible = "fsl,mpc5200b-spi","fsl,mpc5200-spi"; 82 reg = <0xf00 0x20>; 83 interrupts = <2 13 0 2 14 0>; 84 interrupt-parent = <&mpc5200_pic>; 85 86 ethernet-switch@0 { 87 compatible = "micrel,ks8995m"; 88 spi-max-frequency = <1000000>; 89 reg = <0>; 90 }; 91 92 codec@1 { 93 compatible = "ti,tlv320aic26"; 94 spi-max-frequency = <100000>; 95 reg = <1>; 96 }; 97 }; 98
