[PATCH 3/4] dt-bindings: rtc: abracon,abx80x: Add xt-frequency property

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

 



Add the string property "xt-frequency" to control xtal calibration of the
RTC. This allows to improve the RTC accuracy using a Distributed Digital
Calibration function. See: ch. 5.9.1 of
AB08XX Series Ultra Low Power RTC IC User's Guide
https://abracon.com/realtimeclock/AB08XX-Application-Manual.pdf

+The RTCs support XT calibration that allows to improve the RTC accuracy.

+		to ensure the calibration is not occurring.
+	Select the XT oscillator by writing by writing xtal to

+	Configure the square wave SQW output by writing

+	Measure the square wave frequency on the output pin in milliHerz.
+	Assign the measured value to the property xt-frequency.
