Hi Axel, My apologies for the delay in responding to this one.

Why? Do you know of any documentation which states this? I am referring to the twl6030 Top Functional spec version 1.18 and Table - 223 "LDO Output Voltage Selection Code" clearly states that the vsel should be 1 when voltage expected is 1000000 uV. Also refer to equation 3 "LDO Output Voltage Selection Code" in the same document and you will see this mentioned.. Absolute Voltage value = 1.0V + 0.1V * (binary value – 00000001)
Fix it by change the equation to: (This equation is common for linear mapping) vsel = DIV_ROUND_UP(min_uV - rdev->desc->min_uV, rdev->desc->uV_step); In twl6030ldo_get_voltage, current code use below formula to calculate voltage: mV = 1000mv + 100mv * (vsel - 1) This is worng because when vsel is 0, mV is 900mV. Note the min_uV is 1000mV. Fix it by change the equation to: (This equation is common for linear mapping) return rdev->desc->min_uV + vsel * rdev->desc->uV_step;While I'm thinking I need to rework this patch so that it doesn't use rdev->desc->min_uV and rdev->desc->uV_step and then can be applied to current Linus' tree. But while I am tracking back to commit 3e3d3be79c Author: Rajendra Nayak<[email protected]> Date: Thu Apr 22 14:18:32 2010 +0530 twl6030: regulator: Remove vsel tables and use formula for calculation All twl6030 regulators can be programmed from 1.0v to 3.3v with 100mV steps. The below formula can be used to calculate the vsel values to be programmed in the VREG_VOLTAGE registers. Voltage(in mV) = 1000mv + 100mv * (vsel - 1) Ex: if vsel = 0x9, mV = 1000 + 100 * (9 -1) = 1800mV. This patch removes all existing VSEL tables for twl6030 adjustable regulators and just uses the formula directly for vsel calculations after verifing they fall in the allowed range. Signed-off-by: Rajendra Nayak<[email protected]> I found a problem that before commit 3e3d3be79c, the voltage tables were not linear mapping. So why we can convert these voltage mapping table to Voltage(in mV) = 1000mv + 100mv * (vsel - 1)? Did I miss something?
All voltage tables before commit '3e3d3be79c' for twl6030 regulators were clearly wrong. They assumed similarity with twl4030 regulators which was not right. regards, Rajendra
