Subject: Modeling the register bit as a voltage regulator for SDHI/eMMC
Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2024 11:55:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+V-a8tO_nks1gZ7xsQC3Dr+A6CA4qAbSpZDMHYUzK7j04cNyA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Wolfram and Geert,

On the RZ/V2H SoC for the SDHI IP block we have SD_STATUS register
(page 1503 in [0]) which has a SD_IOVS bit that controls SDmIOVS pin.
SDmIOVS is a multiplexed pin when '0' is written to SD_IOVS bit the
pin state will be '0' and when '1' is written the pin state is '1'.
So instead of a GPIO pin acting as regulator this SDmIOVS can be used
to toggle 0/1 which will control the pmic to allow us for switching
between 1.8V and 3.3V.

There is a similar instance of regulator driver [1] which is
controlled via register bit write, but in our case the SD_STATUS
register is part of the SDHI IP block itself.

What approach would you suggest in this case?
