1LVDS Display Panel
2==================
3
4LVDS is a physical layer specification defined in ANSI/TIA/EIA-644-A. Multiple
5incompatible data link layers have been used over time to transmit image data
6to LVDS panels. This bindings supports display panels compatible with the
7following specifications.

9[JEIDA] "Digital Interface Standards for Monitor", JEIDA-59-1999, February
101999 (Version 1.0), Japan Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA)

14Electronics Standards Association (VESA)
15
16Device compatible with those specifications have been marketed under the
17FPD-Link and FlatLink brands.

20Required properties:
21
22- compatible: Shall contain "panel-lvds" in addition to a mandatory
23  panel-specific compatible string defined in individual panel bindings. The
24  "panel-lvds" value shall never be used on its own.
25- width-mm: See panel-common.txt.
26- height-mm: See panel-common.txt.
27- data-mapping: The color signals mapping order, "jeida-18", "jeida-24"
28  or "vesa-24".
29
30Optional properties:
31
32- label: See panel-common.txt.
33- gpios: See panel-common.txt.
34- backlight: See panel-common.txt.
35- data-mirror: If set, reverse the bit order described in the data mappings
36  below on all data lanes, transmitting bits for slots 6 to 0 instead of
37  0 to 6.
38
39Required nodes:
40
41- panel-timing: See panel-common.txt.
42- ports: See panel-common.txt. These bindings require a single port subnode
43  corresponding to the panel LVDS input.
44
45
46LVDS data mappings are defined as follows.
47
48- "jeida-18" - 18-bit data mapping compatible with the [JEIDA], [LDI] and
49  [VESA] specifications. Data are transferred as follows on 3 LVDS lanes.
