This must be a logical value in mA, so "richtek,bled-ocp-microamp". I see you already did some register-style for voltage. It's wrong but it was done, so let it be.

It might not be exactly the same. We have "led-max-microamp" which is the maximum allowed current. I guess over-current protection level is slightly higher (e.g. led-max-microamp + 1). IOW, led-max-microamp is something which still can be set and used by system/hardware. OCP should not. Best regards, Krzysztof

This OCP level is to limit the inductor current when the internal MOS switch turn on. Details can refer to the below wiki link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter And based on it, OVP is used to limit the inductor output voltage. Each channel maximum current is based on the IC affordable limit. It is more like as what you said 'led-max-microamp'. So boost voltage level may depend on the LED VF. The different series of LED may cause different boost voltage. RT4831's OVP/OCP is not just the protection, more like as the limit. > > Best regards, > Krzysztof

This suggests Rob is right, so let's use led-max-microamp property? Best regards, Krzysztof

'led-max-microamp' always means the channel output current. It already can be adjusted by backlight brightness node. For example low voltage side (3.3~4.4V) to generate the boost voltage to 16~17V, even 20V for BLED Vout. This OCP is to limit the input current of low voltage side. After the explanation, do you still think it's the same thing? > Best regards, > Krzysztof
