1ChromeOS Embedded Controller
2
3Google's ChromeOS EC is a Cortex-M device which talks to the AP and
4implements various function such as keyboard and battery charging.
5
6The EC can be connect through various means (I2C, SPI, LPC) and the
7compatible string used depends on the interface. Each connection method has
8its own driver which connects to the top level interface-agnostic EC driver.
9Other Linux driver (such as cros-ec-keyb for the matrix keyboard) connect to
10the top-level driver.

12Required properties (I2C):
13- compatible: "google,cros-ec-i2c"
14- reg: I2C slave address
15
16Required properties (SPI):
17- compatible: "google,cros-ec-spi"
18- reg: SPI chip select
19
20Optional properties (SPI):
21- google,cros-ec-spi-pre-delay: Some implementations of the EC need a little
22  time to wake up from sleep before they can receive SPI transfers at a high
23  clock rate. This property specifies the delay, in usecs, between the
24  assertion of the CS to the start of the first clock pulse.
25- google,cros-ec-spi-msg-delay: Some implementations of the EC require some
26  additional processing time in order to accept new transactions. If the delay
27  between transactions is not long enough the EC may not be able to respond
28  properly to subsequent transactions and cause them to hang. This property
29  specifies the delay, in usecs, introduced between transactions to account
30  for the time required by the EC to get back into a state in which new data
31  can be accepted.
32
33Required properties (LPC):
34- compatible: "google,cros-ec-lpc"
35- reg: List of (IO address, size) pairs defining the interface uses
36
37Optional properties (all):
38- google,has-vbc-nvram: Some implementations of the EC include a small
39  nvram space used to store verified boot context data. This boolean flag
40  is used to specify whether this nvram is present or not.

42Example for I2C:
43
44i2c@12ca0000 {
45	cros-ec@1e {
46		reg = <0x1e>;
47		compatible = "google,cros-ec-i2c";
48		interrupts = <14 0>;
49		interrupt-parent = <&wakeup_eint>;
50		wakeup-source;
51	};
52
53
54Example for SPI:
55
56spi@131b0000 {
57	ec@0 {
58		compatible = "google,cros-ec-spi";
59		reg = <0x0>;
60		interrupts = <14 0>;
61		interrupt-parent = <&wakeup_eint>;
62		wakeup-source;
63		spi-max-frequency = <5000000>;
64		controller-data {
65		cs-gpio = <&gpf0 3 4 3 0>;
66		samsung,spi-cs;
67		samsung,spi-feedback-delay = <2>;
68		};
69	};
70};
