| Description: | |
| ============ | |
| The HDQ/1-Wire module of TI OMAP2430/3430 platforms implement the hardware | |
| protocol of the master functions of the Benchmark HDQ and the Dallas | |
| Semiconductor 1-Wire protocols. These protocols use a single wire for | |
| communication between the master (HDQ/1-Wire controller) and the slave | |
| (HDQ/1-Wire external compliant device). | |
| A typical application of the HDQ/1-Wire module is the communication with battery | |
| monitor (gas gauge) integrated circuits. | |
| The controller supports operation in both HDQ and 1-wire mode. The essential | |
| difference between the HDQ and 1-wire mode is how the slave device responds to | |
| initialization pulse.In HDQ mode, the firmware does not require the host to | |
| create an initialization pulse to the slave.However, the slave can be reset by | |
| using an initialization pulse (also referred to as a break pulse).The slave | |
| does not respond with a presence pulse as it does in the 1-Wire protocol. | |
| Remarks: | |
| ======== | |
| The driver (drivers/w1/masters/omap_hdq.c) supports the HDQ mode of the | |
| controller. In this mode, as we can not read the ID which obeys the W1 | |
| spec(family:id:crc), a module parameter can be passed to the driver which will | |
| be used to calculate the CRC and pass back an appropriate slave ID to the W1 | |
| core. | |
| By default the master driver and the BQ slave i/f | |
| driver(drivers/w1/slaves/w1_bq27000.c) sets the ID to 1. | |
| Please note to load both the modules with a different ID if required, but note | |
| that the ID used should be same for both master and slave driver loading. | |
| e.g: | |
| insmod omap_hdq.ko W1_ID=2 | |
| inamod w1_bq27000.ko F_ID=2 | |
