nxp,dai-esai

Vendor: NXP Semiconductors

Description

NXP Enhanced Serial Audio Interface (ESAI) node

Properties

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name

Type

Details

dai-index

int

 
Use this property to specify the index of the DAI. At the
moment, this is only used by SOF to fetch the "struct device"
associated with the DAI whose index Linux passes to SOF
through an IPC. If this property is not specified, the DAI
index will be considered 0.

tx-fifo-watermark

int

 
Use this property to specify the watermark value for the TX
FIFO. This value needs to be in FIFO words (NOT BYTES). This
value needs to be in the following interval: (0, DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH],
otherwise a BUILD_ASSERT() failure will be raised. If unspecified,
the TX FIFO watermark will be set to DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH / 2.

rx-fifo-watermark

int

 
Use this property to specify the watermark value for the RX
FIFO. This values needs to be in FIFO words (NOT BYTES). This
value needs to be in the following interval: (0, DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH],
otherwise a BUILD_ASSERT() failure will be raised. If unspecified,
the RX FIFO watermark will be set to DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH / 2.

fifo-depth

int

 
Use this property to set the FIFO depth that will be reported
to upper layer applications calling dai_get_properties(). This
value should be in the following interval: (0, DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH],
otherwise a BUILD_ASSERT() failure will be raised. By DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH
we mean the actual (hardware) value of the FIFO depth. This is needed
because some applications (e.g: SOF) use this value directly as the
DMA burst size in which case DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH cannot be used.
Generally, reporting a false FIFO depth should be avoided. Please note
that the sanity check for tx/rx-fifo-watermark uses DEFAULT_FIFO_DETPH
instead of this value so use with caution. If unsure, it's better to
not use this property at all, in which case the reported value will be
DEFAULT_FIFO_DEPTH.

word-width

int

 
This property is used to specify the width of a word. If unspecified,
the word width used will be 24.

esai-pin-modes

array

 
This property is used to configure the ESAI pins. Each ESAI pin
supports 4 modes:
  1) DISCONNECTED (PDC[i] = 0, PC[i] = 0)
  2) GPIO input (PDC[i] = 0, PC[i] = 1)
  3) GPIO output (PDC[i] = 1, PC[i] = 0)
  4) ESAI (PDC[i] = 1, PC[i] = 1)
If pin is not used then DISCONNECTED mode should be used for said pin.
If unsure, don't specify this property at all. By default, all pins will
be set to ESAI mode.

esai-clock-configuration

array

 
Use this property to configure the directions of the ESAI clocks (HCLK, BCLK, FSYNC).
This provides extra flexibility since the bespoke configuration is not direction-based.
The values from this array will overwrite the values set through the bespoke
configuration. If unspecified, the values from the bespoke configuration will be used.
