In the DPWM dimming mode, the output waveform +follows the Pulse Width Modulation Input(PWMI) signal and the current level is +set by I2C control and an external RSET resistor. In the APWM mode, the PWMI +signal duty and the I2C brightness control signal are multiplied to control +the output current level. + +The driver exports some additional attributes for SKY81452 backlight. +- enable : Current sink channels. Bit0 is for channel 1, Bit1 is for channel 2 + and Bit2 is for channel 3. In same way, Bit5 is for channel 6. + For example, if 5 is written to this attribute, channel 1 and + channel 3 are enabled. +- open : Shows an open LED fault. +- short : Shows an short LED fault. +- fault : Shows information about over-current and over-temperature. -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
