This chip may not be a "controller" in the traditional sense as it doesn't control anything. > We can change node naming to sensor or regulator so that it aligns with the convention. > One of the problems here is that the chip datasheet is not public, so we can not verify what this actually is. The only available public document appears to be the "onsemi FD512x Ax Digital Controller User Manual" which describes the chip as follows. "The FD512x Digital Controller is a programmable device designed for machine vendors to configure their equipment at the factory." That really does not explain anything at all, and actually looks like an AI generated summary with the AI not understanding what it is talking about. According to the onsemi web page, the chip does not exist, and it appears that it is not available to buy from any distributors either.
