nordic,nrf21540-fem
Vendor: Nordic Semiconductor
Description
This is a representation of the nRF21540 Radio Front-End module.
See the "nordic,nrf21540-fem-spi" binding to configure the SPI
interface. The SPI interface should be configured as a child node
of the SPI bus you have connected to the FEM. Then you "connect"
the FEM and SPI configurations using the spi-if property.
Here is an example nRF21540 configuration with a SPI interface
selected, using the SPIM0 peripheral found on several nRF5 SoCs:
&spi0 {
compatible = "nordic,nrf-spim";
status = "okay";
cs-gpios = <&gpio1 3 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
/* ... MISO/MOSI/SCK pin configuration goes here ... */
my_spi_if: nrf21540-spi@0 {
compatible = "nordic,nrf21540-fem-spi";
reg = <0>;
spi-max-frequency = <8000000>;
};
};
nrf_radio_fem: nrf21540 {
compatible = "nordic,nrf21540-fem";
tx-en-gpios = <&gpio0 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
rx-en-gpios = <&gpio0 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
spi-if = <&my_spi_if>;
pdn-gpios = <...>;
ant-sel-gpios = <...>;
mode-gpios = <...>;
/* ... other nRF21540 properties go here ... */
};
&radio {
fem = <&nrf_radio_fem>;
};
In the above example, the nRF21540 is configured for use with:
- TX_EN on P0.2 (from 'tx-en-gpios')
- RX_EN on P0.5 (from 'rx-en-gpios')
- SPI communication via SPIM0 (the bus, or parent node, of
the 'my_spi_if' node
- CSN on P1.3 (from index 0 in the bus node's 'cs-gpios' property)
You must perform any additional required SPI pin configuration
(nRF21540 MISO, MOSI, and SCK pins) within the SPI bus node
('spi0' in the above example). See your SPI node's binding for
details on these pin mux properties. You can use any SPI node
available in your SoC's devicetree.
Configure any other nRF21540 pins as needed using 'pdn-gpios',
'ant-sel-gpios', and 'mode-gpios' properties. If unsure about the
format, use 'tx-en-gpios' as an example.
Finally, the nRF5 SoC's radio peripheral is set up for use with
the nRF21540 via the 'fem' property in the 'radio' node.

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.
