[PATCH v3 2/2] dt-bindings: mipi-dsi: Add dual-channel DSI related info

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

 



Add binding info for peripherals that support dual-channel DSI. Add
corresponding optional bindings for DSI host controllers that may
be configured in this mode. Add an example of an I2C controlled
device operating in dual-channel DSI mode.

+-----------------------------------------
+
+Peripherals with higher bandwidth requirements can be connected to 2 DSI
+busses. Each DSI bus/channel drives some portion of the pixel data (generally

+The graph bindings should be used to represent the multiple DSI busses that are

+an input endpoint of the DSI peripheral.
