arm,ethos-u
Vendor: ARM Ltd.
Note
An implementation of a driver matching this compatible is available in drivers/misc/ethos_u/ethos_u.c.
Description
The Arm Ethos-U is a micro NPU that enables neural networks to be hardware
accelerated on embedded devices. The Ethos-U NPU driver is provided as a
Zephyr module that is hooked up into the Tensorflow Lite Micro framework
as a 'TFLM custom operation'.
This device tree entry defines board specific properties like the register
map address and interrupt line, and is therefore expected to be included
into the device specific device tree file.

Deprecated properties not inherited from the base binding file.
(None)
Properties inherited from the base binding file, which defines common properties that may be set on many nodes. Not all of these may apply to the “arm,ethos-u” compatible.

Do not initialize device automatically on boot. Device should be manually
initialized using device_init().
|
|
|
Property to identify that a device can be used as wake up source.
When this property is provided a specific flag is set into the
device that tells the system that the device is capable of
wake up the system.
Wake up capable devices are disabled (interruptions will not wake up
the system) by default but they can be enabled at runtime if necessary.
|
|
|
Automatically configure the device for runtime power management after the
init function runs.
