Number of nanoseconds the SDA signal takes to fall; t(f) in the I2C
specification.
The I2C specification allows for the clock line to be held low for a specified timeout to force the slave device into a 'wait' mode. This feature is known as 'Clock stretching' and is optional. In the NXP I2C specification, clock stretching is described as the process of pausing a transaction by holding the SCL line LOW. The transaction can only continue when the line is released HIGH again.[*] However, most target devices do not include an SCL driver and are therefore unable to stretch the clock. Add the following properties: - i2c-scl-clk-low-timeout-ms: This property specifies the duration, in milliseconds, for which the clock is kept low and a client needs to detect a forced waiting state. - i2c-scl-has-clk-low-timeout: This property specifies whether the I2C controller implements the clock stretching property. It's important to note that this feature should not be confused with the SMBUS clock timeout, which serves a similar function but specifies a timeout of 25-35ms. The I2C specification does not recommend any specific timeout. [*] NXP, UM10204 - I2C-bus specification and user manual Rev. 7.0, 1 October 2021, chapter 3.1.9.
