|
Array of GPIOs to be used as rows of the matrix.
This property is required. |
|
|
Array of GPIOs to be used as columns of the matrix.
This property is required. |
|
|
Array of bytes that specify which rows and columns of the matrix
control its particular pixels, line by line. Each byte in this
array corresponds to one pixel of the matrix and specifies the row
index in the high nibble and the column index in the low nibble.
For example, the following snippet (from the bbc_microbit board DTS):
width = <5>;
height = <5>;
pixel-mapping = [00 13 01 14 02
23 24 25 26 27
...
specifies that:
- pixel (0,0) is controlled by row 0 and column 0
- pixel (1,0) is controlled by row 1 and column 3
- pixel (0,1) is controlled by row 2 and column 3
- pixel (1,1) is controlled by row 2 and column 4
and so on.
This property is required. |
|
|
Frequency of refreshing the matrix, in Hz.
This property is required. |
|
|
Reference to a TIMER instance for controlling refreshing of the matrix.
This property is required. |
|
|
Reference to a PWM instance for generating pulse signals on column
GPIOs. If not provided, GPIOTE and PPI channels are allocated and
used instead for generating those pulses.
|
|
|
This value specifies the maximum number of LEDs in one row that can
be lit simultaneously.
If set to 1, only a single LED is turned on in a particular time slot.
Bigger values increase the maximum achievable brightness of the LEDs
and lower the CPU load by decreasing the frequency of execution of
the timer interrupt handler.
In case GPIOTE and PPI channels are used for generating the pixel pulse
signals, the number of channels that need to be allocated is equal to
this value.
If GPIOTE and PPI channels are used, the upper limit for the value is
defined by the number of CC channels in the used timer minus one.
If PWM is used, the upper limit is the number of PWM channels.
This property is required. |

Height of the panel driven by the controller, with the units in pixels.
This property is required. |
|
|
Width of the panel driven by the controller, with the units in pixels.
This property is required. |

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 “nordic,nrf-led-matrix” compatible.

Indicates the operational status of the hardware or other
resource that the node represents. In particular:
- "okay" means the resource is operational and, for example,
can be used by device drivers
- "disabled" means the resource is not operational and the system
should treat it as if it is not present
For details, see "2.3.4 status" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.
Legal values: See Important properties for more information. |

|
This property is a list of strings that essentially define what
type of hardware or other resource this devicetree node
represents. Each device driver checks for specific compatible
property values to find the devicetree nodes that represent
resources that the driver should manage.
The recommended format is "vendor,device", The "vendor" part is
an abbreviated name of the vendor. The "device" is usually from
the datasheet.
The compatible property can have multiple values, ordered from
most- to least-specific. Having additional values is useful when the
device is a specific instance of a more general family, to allow the
system to match the most specific driver available.
For details, see "2.3.1 compatible" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.
This property is required. See Important properties for more information. |
|
|
Information used to address the device. The value is specific to
the device (i.e. is different depending on the compatible
property).
The "reg" property is typically a sequence of (address, length) pairs.
Each pair is called a "register block". Values are
conventionally written in hex.
For details, see "2.3.6 reg" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.
See Important properties for more information. |
|
|
Optional names given to each register block in the "reg" property.
For example:
/ {
soc {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
uart@1000 {
reg = <0x1000 0x2000>, <0x3000 0x4000>;
reg-names = "foo", "bar";
};
};
};
The uart@1000 node has two register blocks:
- one with base address 0x1000, size 0x2000, and name "foo"
- another with base address 0x3000, size 0x4000, and name "bar"

|
Information about interrupts generated by the device, encoded as an array
of one or more interrupt specifiers. The format of the data in this property
varies by where the device appears in the interrupt tree. Devices with the same
"interrupt-parent" will use the same format in their interrupts properties.
For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.
See Important properties for more information. |
|
|
Extended interrupt specifier for device, used as an alternative to
the "interrupts" property.
For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.
|
|
|
Optional names given to each interrupt generated by a device.
The interrupts themselves are defined in either "interrupts" or
"interrupts-extended" properties.
For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.
|
|
|
If present, this refers to the node which handles interrupts generated
by this device.
For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.
|
|
|
Human readable string describing the device. Use of this property is
deprecated except as needed on a case-by-case basis.
For details, see "4.1.2 Miscellaneous Properties" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.
See Important properties for more information. |
|
|
Information about the device's clock providers. In general, this property
should follow conventions established in the dt-schema binding:
https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/main/dtschema/schemas/clock/clock.yaml
|
|
|
Optional names given to each clock provider in the "clocks" property.
|
|
|
This property encodes the number of <u32> cells used by address fields
in "reg" properties in this node's children.
For details, see "2.3.5 #address-cells and #size-cells" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.
|
|
|
This property encodes the number of <u32> cells used by size fields in
"reg" properties in this node's children.
For details, see "2.3.5 #address-cells and #size-cells" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.

|
|

|
|
|
Optional names given to the IO channel specifiers in the "io-channels" property.

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.
|
|
|
List of power states that will disable this device power.
