Properties

Node specific properties

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name

Type

Details

mode

int

Operating mode of display, 8-bit or 4 for 4-bit mode

This property is required.

Legal values: 4, 8

register-select-gpios

phandle-array

GPIO connected to Register Select (RS) of LCD

This property is required.

read-write-gpios

phandle-array

Optional GPIO used for selecting read or write mode

enable-gpios

phandle-array

GPIO used for enabling commands to be sent

This property is required.

data-bus-gpios

phandle-array

Array of GPIOs connected to the DB lines of the display, this must
contain 8 entries ascending from DB0 to DB7, for 4-bit interface
displays, the first 4 must be set as `<0>`

This property is required.

brightness-gpios

phandle-array

Optional GPIO used for controlling the brightness (contrast)

backlight-gpios

phandle-array

Optional GPIO used for enabling the backlight

line-addresses

uint8-array

Array of addresses for each row, will use defaults if not provided.
Default is as per Hitachi HD44780 specification.

Default value: [0, 64, 20, 84]

enable-line-rise-delay-us

int

Delay time (in us) to wait after enable line rises before setting low.
Default is as per Hitachi HD44780 specification.

Default value: 800

enable-line-fall-delay-us

int

Delay time (in us) to wait after enable line falls before sending
another command. Default is as per Hitachi HD44780 specification.

Default value: 100

clear-command-delay-us

int

Delay time (in us) to wait after issuing a clear command before sending
another command. Default is as per Hitachi HD44780 specification.

Default value: 5000

boot-delay-ms

int

Delay time (in ms) to wait at boot time before sending a command (note:
this will delay startup of the whole application by this time, this
should only be used when time is needed for the display device to be
ready before it can be configured which without any delay would cause
the display to not function properly).

columns

int

Number of text columns that the display has

This property is required.

rows

int

Number of text rows that the display has

This property is required.

Deprecated node specific properties

Deprecated properties not inherited from the base binding file.

(None)

Base properties

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 “hit,hd44780” compatible.

Name

zephyr,deferred-init

boolean

Do not initialize device automatically on boot. Device should be manually
initialized using device_init().

wakeup-source

boolean

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.

zephyr,pm-device-runtime-auto

boolean

Automatically configure the device for runtime power management after the
init function runs.

zephyr,disabling-power-states

phandles

List of power states that will disable this device power.
