The DT binding document for LTC2941 and LTC2943 battery gauges did not use a vendor prefix in the listed compatible strings. The driver says that the manufacturer is Linear Technology which is "lltc" in vendor-prefixes.txt. There isn't an upstream Device Tree source file that has nodes defined for these devices, so there's no need to keep the old compatible strings.

binding for LTC2941 and LTC2943 battery gauges
|
|
|
|
Both the LTC2941 and LTC2943 measure battery capacity.
|
|
The LTC2943 is compatible with the LTC2941, it adds voltage and
|
|
temperature monitoring, and uses a slightly different conversion
|
|
formula for the charge counter.
|
|
|
|
Required properties:
|
|
- compatible: Should contain "lltc,ltc2941" or "lltc,ltc2943" which also
|
|
indicates the type of I2C chip attached.
|
|
- reg: The 7-bit I2C address.
|
|
- lltc,resistor-sense: The sense resistor value in milli-ohms. Can be a 32-bit
|
|
negative value when the battery has been connected to the wrong end of the
|
|
resistor.
|
|
- lltc,prescaler-exponent: The prescaler exponent as explained in the datasheet.
|
|
This determines the range and accuracy of the gauge. The value is programmed
|
|
into the chip only if it differs from the current setting. The setting is
|
|
lost when the battery is disconnected.
|
|
|
|
Example from the Topic Miami Florida board:
|
|
|
|
fuelgauge: ltc2943@64 {
|
|
compatible = "lltc,ltc2943";
|
|
reg = <0x64>;
|
|
lltc,resistor-sense = <15>;
|
|
lltc,prescaler-exponent = <5>; /* 2^(2*5) = 1024 */
|
|
};
