Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: hwmon: pwm-fan: Document start from stopped state properties
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2024 03:14:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241106021559.175105-1-marex@denx.de> (raw)
Delta AFC0612DB-F00 fan has to be set to at least 30% PWM duty cycle
to spin up from a stopped state, and can be afterward throttled down to
lower PWM duty cycle. Introduce support for operating such fans which
need to start at higher PWM duty cycle first and can slow down next.
Document two new DT properties, "fan-stop-to-start-percent" and
"fan-stop-to-start-usec". The former describes the minimum percent
of fan RPM at which it will surely spin up from stopped state. This
value can be found in the fan datasheet and can be converted to PWM
duty cycle easily. The "fan-stop-to-start-usec" describes the minimum
time in microseconds for which the fan has to be set to stopped state
start RPM for the fan to surely spin up.
