HW team characterize the board and its rail and come up with the following data: - Configure PMIC to 27mV/us for ramp time. - With this measured value of ramp on board is 10mV/us and it is safe to assume 5mv/us to consider the board variations. So we have now two input from HW team: 1. What should be configure in PMIC. 2. And for calculation, how much ramp need to be consider. For (1), it is 25mV/us and for (2) which 540% (27 *100/5). Currently, we can provide the 27mv/us as ramp-delay but do not have option for scaling it.You're not trying to scale the value here, you're trying to replace the value because the PMIC is incapable of delivering the advertised ramp rate. Trying to express this as a multiple of the advertised ramp rate is just adding complexity.
So should we provide absolute ramp value here for platform specific? Or any other suggestion to handle this situation as this is very common and almost all our boards have this slowness on ramp.
