WL12/WL18 SDIO Regulator Question

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

 



I am not sure where to post this, but a bunch of omap boards uses
either the WL12 or WL18xx Wireless chips, and I have a generic
question regarding the 'regulators' we use to set the enable pin on
the WiFi chips.

When digging around in the mmc drivers, I found a driver called
"mmc-pwrseq-simple"

It appears to do exactly what we want (ie, turn on the WiFi chip)
without having to create a separate fixed regulator, but it also has
the added functionality of enabling an external clock signal.

This mmc-pwrseq-simple driver appears to be referenced from the MMC
level with the reference like "mmc-pwrseq = <&usdhc1_pwrseq>;" or
something similar.

Should we use this type of mechanism instead of the simple regulators
to enable/disable the WL12 and/or WL18xx chips?  I am not sure of the
OMAP MMC/SD controller utilizes the "mmc-pwrseq" entry in the node or
not.
