Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] dt-bindings: leds: Read max-brightness from devicetree
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2023 11:22:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230630092248.4146169-3-astrid.rost@axis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230630092248.4146169-1-astrid.rost@axis.com>

Add max-brightness in order to reduce the current on the connected LEDs.
Normally, the maximum brightness is determined by the hardware, and this
property is not required. This property is used to set a software limit.
It could happen that an LED is made so bright that it gets damaged or
causes damage due to restrictions in a specific system, such as mounting
conditions. Note that led-max-microamp should be preferably used, if it
is supported by the controller.
