[RFC PATCH v3 2/2] pwm: imx: Configure output to GPIO in disabled state

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

 



Normally the PWM output is held LOW when PWM is disabled. This can cause
problems when inverted PWM signal polarity is needed. With this behavior
the connected circuit is fed by 100% duty cycle instead of being shut-off.

Allow users to define a "pwm" and a "gpio" pinctrl states. The pwm pinctrl
state is selected when PWM is enabled and the gpio pinctrl state is
selected when PWM is disabled. In the gpio state the new pwm-gpios GPIO is
configured as input and the internal pull-up resistor is used to pull the
output level high.

If all the pinctrl states and the pwm-gpios GPIO are not correctly
specified in DT the PWM work as usual.

As an example, with this patch a PWM controlled backlight with inversed
signal polarity can be used in full brightness range. Without this patch
the backlight can not be turned off as brightness = 0 disables the PWM
and that in turn set PWM output LOW, that is full brightness.

Inverted output of the PWM with "default" and with "pwm"+"gpio" pinctrl:

+--------------+------------+---------------+----------- +-------------+
| After reset  | Bootloader |   PWM probe   |     PWM    |     PWM     |
| 100k pull-up |            |               | enable 30% |   disable   |
+--------------+------------+---------------+------------+-------------+
| pinctrl      |    none    |    default    |   default  |   default   |
| out H   __________________                   __   __                 |

Changes in v3:
 - Commit message update.
 - Minor fix in code comment (Uwe)
 - Align function arguments to the opening parentheses. (Uwe)
 - Do not test devm_pinctrl_get for NULL. (Thierry)
 - Convert all messages to dev_dbg() (Thierry)
 - Do not actively drive the pin in gpio state. Configure it as input
   and rely solely on the internal pull-up. (Thierry)

Changes in v2:
 - Utilize the "pwm" and "gpio" pinctrl states.
 - Use the pwm-gpios signal to drive the output in "gpio" pinctrl state.
 - Select the right pinctrl state in probe.
