5G or data converter clock applications.

Wrap this lot to 75 chars otherwise that's fine if more detail than
many bother with! :)

A few additional comments from me inline.

Description only talks about the a variant. Why is the one without the a?

Don't talk about the driver in a dt-binding. So delete last two sentences.

Why can this not be derived by the required settings in the driver?
That is, why is this a characteristic of the board design?

Don't think the maxItems is needed.

As above. We should be able to figure out if this is necessary to meet
a particular requested output.

Can we express this in standard units for current?
Also call it bleed-current.

As above, do we need maxItems?

Why does a default power up frequency make sense?
I'd kind of expect the device to not put anything out until software
has configured it.

As above. Feels like this should be configured by userspace before anything is
enabled.  I'd be happy with limits if those make sense (as might reflect what
the circuitry can cope with).

Is this standard SPI 3 wire, or an ADI variant?
Is spi-3wire from main spi binding appropriate?

spell check.

How do you configure it given with the wrong voltage is the
SPI bus reliable?

Indentation is a bit random.
Stick to 4 spaces throughout.
