[RFC 3/3] dt: bindings: Add a binding for referencing EEPROM from camera sensors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Many camera sensor devices contain EEPROM chips that describe the
properties of a given unit --- the data is specific to a given unit can
thus is not stored e.g. in user space or the driver.

Some sensors embed the EEPROM chip and it can be accessed through the
sensor's I²C interface. This property is to be used for devices where the
EEPROM chip is accessed through a different I²C address than the sensor.

The intent is to later provide this information to the user space.
