Note

An implementation of a driver matching this compatible is available in drivers/can/can_mcp2515.c.

Description

MCP2515 SPI CAN controller

Properties

Top level properties

These property descriptions apply to “microchip,mcp2515” nodes themselves. This page also describes child node properties in the following sections.

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name

Type

Details

supply-gpios

phandle-array

GPIO specifier that controls power to the device.

This property should be provided when the device has a dedicated
switch that controls power to the device.  The supply state is
entirely the responsibility of the device driver.

Contrast with vin-supply.

vin-supply

phandle

Reference to the regulator that controls power to the device.
The referenced devicetree node must have a regulator compatible.

This property should be provided when device power is supplied
by a shared regulator.  The supply state is dependent on the
request status of all devices fed by the regulator.

Contrast with supply-gpios.  If both properties are provided
then the regulator must be requested before the supply GPIOS is
set to an active state, and the supply GPIOS must be set to an
inactive state before releasing the regulator.

spi-max-frequency

int

Maximum clock frequency of device's SPI interface in Hz

This property is required.

duplex

int

Duplex mode, full or half. By default it's always full duplex thus 0
as this is, by far, the most common mode.
Use the macros not the actual enum value, here is the concordance
list (see dt-bindings/spi/spi.h)
  0    SPI_FULL_DUPLEX
  2048 SPI_HALF_DUPLEX

Legal values: 0, 2048

frame-format

int

Motorola or TI frame format. By default it's always Motorola's,
thus 0 as this is, by far, the most common format.
Use the macros not the actual enum value, here is the concordance
list (see dt-bindings/spi/spi.h)
  0     SPI_FRAME_FORMAT_MOTOROLA
  32768 SPI_FRAME_FORMAT_TI

Legal values: 0, 32768

spi-cpol

boolean

SPI clock polarity which indicates the clock idle state.
If it is used, the clock idle state is logic high; otherwise, low.

spi-cpha

boolean

SPI clock phase that indicates on which edge data is sampled.
If it is used, data is sampled on the second edge; otherwise, on the first edge.

spi-hold-cs

boolean

In some cases, it is necessary for the master to manage SPI chip select
under software control, so that multiple spi transactions can be performed
without releasing it. A typical use case is variable length SPI packets
where the first spi transaction reads the length and the second spi transaction
reads length bytes.

bitrate

int

Initial bitrate in bit/s. If this is unset, the initial bitrate is set to
CONFIG_CAN_DEFAULT_BITRATE.

sample-point

int

Initial sample point in per mille (e.g. 875 equals 87.5%).

If this is unset (or if it is set to 0), the initial sample point will default to 75.0% for
bitrates over 800 kbit/s, 80.0% for bitrates over 500 kbit/s, and 87.5% for all other
bitrates.

phys

phandle

Actively controlled CAN transceiver.

Example:
  transceiver0: can-phy0 {
    compatible = "nxp,tja1040", "can-transceiver-gpio";
    standby-gpios = <gpioa 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
    max-bitrate = <1000000>;
    #phy-cells = <0>;
  };

  &can0 {
    status = "okay";

    phys = <&transceiver0>;
  };

osc-freq

int

Frequency of the external oscillator

This property is required.

int-gpios

phandle-array

Interrupt pin.

This pin signals active low when produced by the controller. The
property value should ensure the flags properly describe the signal
that is presented to the driver.

This property is required.

Child node properties

Name

Type

Details

min-bitrate

int

The minimum bitrate supported by the CAN transceiver in bits/s.

max-bitrate

int

The maximum bitrate supported by the CAN transceiver in bits/s.

This property is required.
