Load Diagnostics
================
The TAS675x provides three load diagnostic modes:
DC Load Diagnostics (DC LDG)
Measures DC resistance to detect S2G (short-to-ground), S2P
(short-to-power), OL (open load), and SL (shorted load) faults.
AC Load Diagnostics (AC LDG)
Measures complex AC impedance at a configurable frequency. Detects
capacitive loads and tweeter configurations.
Real-Time Load Diagnostics (RTLDG)
Monitors impedance continuously during playback using a pilot tone.
Normal DSP mode only, at 48 kHz or 96 kHz.
Fast Boot Mode
--------------
By default the device runs DC load diagnostics at initialization before
accepting audio. Setting ``ti,fast-boot`` in the device tree bypasses this
initial diagnostic run for faster startup. Automatic diagnostics after
fault recovery remain enabled.

The ``CHx DC LDG Report`` 4-bit fault field uses the following encoding:

Fault Monitoring
================
The driver monitors faults via IRQ or periodic polling (fallback when
no ``interrupts`` DT property is present). Detected faults are logged
and cleared so affected channels can recover.
Kernel log messages use the format::
tas675x <addr>: <Name> Latched: 0x<value>
Critical faults are logged at ``CRIT`` level; warnings at ``WARN``.
The following fault registers are monitored:
Critical Faults
---------------
These faults place affected channels into the FAULT state. The driver
issues fault clear (register 0x01 bit 3) to allow recovery.
Overtemperature Shutdown (0x87)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[4] Global OTSD
[3:0] CH1-CH4 OTSD respectively
======== ==========================================
Fires when die temperature exceeds the OTSD threshold. If auto-recovery
is enabled (``OTSD Auto Recovery Switch``), channels return to their
previous state after cooling. Otherwise fault clear is required.
Overcurrent / DC Fault (0x8E)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[7:4] Overcurrent Shutdown, CH1-CH4 respectively
[3:0] DC Fault, CH1-CH4 respectively
======== ==========================================
Overcurrent shutdown occurs when output current reaches the shutdown
threshold (e.g. output short to GND). DC fault fires when DC offset
exceeds the DCFAULT threshold.
Real-Time Load Diagnostic Fault (0x8B)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[7:4] Shorted Load faults, CH1-CH4 respectively
[3:0] Open Load faults, CH1-CH4 respectively
======== ==========================================
Reported during playback when RTLDG detects impedance outside the
configured open/short thresholds. Requires RTLDG and current sense to
be enabled, and a sampling rate of 48 kHz or 96 kHz.
CBC Fault/Warning (0x8D)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[7:4] Load current warning, CH1-CH4 respectively
[3:0] Load current fault, CH1-CH4 respectively
======== ==========================================
Cycle-by-cycle current limiting events. A warning fires when the
current limit is active for at least 25% of a 21.3 ms window. A fault
fires if the warning persists for 170.4 ms continuously.
Warnings
--------
These conditions are logged but do not place channels into FAULT state.
Corresponding register bits are cleared when read. Nonetheless, the driver
still clears all events as warnings also latch the (mapped) FAULT pin.
Power Fault (0x86)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[7] DVDD Power-On-Reset
[4] DVDD Undervoltage
[3] PVDD Overvoltage
[2] VBAT Overvoltage
[1] PVDD Undervoltage
[0] VBAT Undervoltage
======== ==========================================
Supply-related events. DVDD POR at bit 7 is expected after every
power-up and can be ignored.
CP / OUTM Soft Short Fault (0x7D)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[5:2] OUTM soft short, CH4-CH1 respectively
[1] Charge Pump UVLO (latched)
[0] Charge Pump UVLO (unlatched/live status)
======== ==========================================
Per-channel out_minus soft short faults and charge pump undervoltage lockout.
Clock Fault (0x8A)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[0] Clock error
======== ==========================================
Fires on clock halt or unsupported SCLK/FSYNC ratio. Only logged when
a stream is active (suppressed during idle to avoid noise from normal
stream stop/start transitions). See `Clock Fault Behaviour`_ below.
Overtemperature Warning (0x88)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[4] Global OTW
[3:0] CH1-CH4 OTW respectively
======== ==========================================
Fires when temperature crosses the OTW threshold. The device continues
to operate. Only logged on change to avoid log spam.
Clip Warning (0x89)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======== ==========================================
Bits Description
======== ==========================================
[3:0] CH1-CH4 clip detected respectively
======== ==========================================
Fires when the audio signal magnitude exceeds the clip detection
threshold. Requires Clip Detect to be enabled. Only logged when a
stream is active.
Driver Known Limitations
========================
Clock Fault Behaviour
---------------------
On Stream Stop
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every time a playback stream stops the FAULT pin briefly asserts. The
ASoC PCM trigger stop sequence calls DAIs in reverse order, so the CPU
DAI stops SCLK before the codec can transition to sleep. The device
detects the clock halt and latches ``CLK_FAULT_LATCHED``, which asserts
the FAULT pin. The driver clears the latch in the ``mute_stream``
callback that follows, so the FAULT pin flicker lasts only a few
milliseconds. Audio output is not affected and no kernel log message
is produced.
On Rapid Rate Switching
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When streams are started in rapid succession, an intermittent
``Clock Fault Latched: 0x01`` message may appear in the kernel log.
A (conservative) ~0.5 second gap between sessions eliminates this.
