| SLIM(Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) bus | |
| SLIMbus is a 2-wire bus, and is used to communicate with peripheral | |
| components like audio-codec. | |
| Required property for SLIMbus controller node: | |
| - compatible - name of SLIMbus controller | |
| Child nodes: | |
| Every SLIMbus controller node can contain zero or more child nodes | |
| representing slave devices on the bus. Every SLIMbus slave device is | |
| uniquely determined by the enumeration address containing 4 fields: | |
| Manufacturer ID, Product code, Device index, and Instance value for | |
| the device. | |
| If child node is not present and it is instantiated after device | |
| discovery (slave device reporting itself present). | |
| In some cases it may be necessary to describe non-probeable device | |
| details such as non-standard ways of powering up a device. In | |
| such cases, child nodes for those devices will be present as | |
| slaves of the SLIMbus controller, as detailed below. | |
| Required property for SLIMbus child node if it is present: | |
| - reg - Should be ('Device index', 'Instance ID') from SLIMbus | |
| Enumeration Address. | |
| Device Index Uniquely identifies multiple Devices within | |
| a single Component. | |
| Instance ID Is for the cases where multiple Devices of the | |
| same type or Class are attached to the bus. | |
| - compatible -"slimMID,PID". The textual representation of Manufacturer ID, | |
| Product Code, shall be in lower case hexadecimal with leading | |
| zeroes suppressed | |
| SLIMbus example for Qualcomm's slimbus manager component: | |
| slim@28080000 { | |
| compatible = "qcom,apq8064-slim", "qcom,slim"; | |
| reg = <0x28080000 0x2000>, | |
| interrupts = <0 33 0>; | |
| clocks = <&lcc SLIMBUS_SRC>, <&lcc AUDIO_SLIMBUS_CLK>; | |
| clock-names = "iface", "core"; | |
| #address-cells = <2>; | |
| #size-cell = <0>; | |
| codec: wcd9310@1,0{ | |
| compatible = "slim217,60"; | |
| reg = <1 0>; | |
| }; | |
| }; |
