4display-timings node
5--------------------
6
7required properties:
8 - none
9
10optional properties:
11 - native-mode: The native mode for the display, in case multiple modes are
12 provided. When omitted, assume the first node is the native.
13
14timing subnode
15--------------
16
17required properties:
18 - hactive, vactive: display resolution
19 - hfront-porch, hback-porch, hsync-len: horizontal display timing parameters
20 in pixels
21 vfront-porch, vback-porch, vsync-len: vertical display timing parameters in
22 lines
23 - clock-frequency: display clock in Hz
24
25optional properties:
26 - hsync-active: hsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
27 - vsync-active: vsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
28 - de-active: data-enable pulse is active low/high/ignored
29 - pixelclk-active: with
30 - active high = drive pixel data on rising edge/
31 sample data on falling edge
32 - active low = drive pixel data on falling edge/
33 sample data on rising edge
34 - ignored = ignored
35 - interlaced (bool): boolean to enable interlaced mode
36 - doublescan (bool): boolean to enable doublescan mode
37
38All the optional properties that are not bool follow the following logic:
39 <1>: high active
40 <0>: low active
41 omitted: not used on hardware
42
43There are different ways of describing the capabilities of a display. The
44devicetree representation corresponds to the one commonly found in datasheets
45for displays. If a display supports multiple signal timings, the native-mode
46can be specified.
47
48The parameters are defined as:

74Example:
75
76 display-timings {
77 native-mode = <&timing0>;
78 timing0: 1080p24 {
79 /* 1920x1080p24 */
80 clock-frequency = <52000000>;
81 hactive = <1920>;
82 vactive = <1080>;
83 hfront-porch = <25>;
84 hback-porch = <25>;
85 hsync-len = <25>;
86 vback-porch = <2>;
87 vfront-porch = <2>;
88 vsync-len = <2>;
89 hsync-active = <1>;
90 };
91 };
92
93Every required property also supports the use of ranges, so the commonly used
94datasheet description with minimum, typical and maximum values can be used.

96Example:
97
98 timing1: timing {
99 /* 1920x1080p24 */
100 clock-frequency = <148500000>;
101 hactive = <1920>;
102 vactive = <1080>;
103 hsync-len = <0 44 60>;
104 hfront-porch = <80 88 95>;
105 hback-porch = <100 148 160>;
106 vfront-porch = <0 4 6>;
107 vback-porch = <0 36 50>;
108 vsync-len = <0 5 6>;
109 };
