Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] dt-bindings: rtc: Add property for Raspberry Pi 5 RTC
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 15:13:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923131323.1099979-2-sander.speetjens@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260923131323.1099979-1-sander.speetjens@gmail.com>

The Raspberry Pi 5 has a built-in RTC that can be battery-backed
via the VBAT pin. When a rechargeable coin cell is used, the
hardware requires a trickle-charge voltage to keep the battery
topped up.

Expose the trickle-voltage-millivolt DT property so the driver can
program the correct charge voltage for board specific configurations with
the attached battery.

V3 -> V4: Add a reff to uint32

V2 -> V3: Fixed the firmware property naming

V1 -> V2: As discussed with Krzysztof Kozlowski, this property is folded into
the existing raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware properties.
