When we use the PMIC values from DK2 example.
1 . ERROR: regul ldo3: max value 750 is invalid
WARNING: register_pmic:600 failed to register ldo3
PANIC at PC : 0x2fff05cb
2 Next we tried setting the ldo3 max, min values to 3V and 1.8V and it was working fine but had next layer of issue as mentioned below.

Requesting for your help to solve this as soon as possible.

Hi @NP,
If your design is similar to DK2 LDO3 is used to supply DDR VTT and need to be set by TF-A to VOUT2/2 sync/src mode.
Can you check this?

Yes. Indeed that is the output we are getting too. But when i set the minimum voltage and maximum voltage as 500mV and 750mV based on DK2 dts file, I get the error as mentioned.
ERROR: regul ldo3: max value 750 is invalid
Later i changed the minimum value to 1.8v and max value to 3v and it got fixed and started working. We got these values with step iterating. It was not working with any values lesser than this.
Indeed it was communicating with PMIC and giving output of ~0.67v at ldo3.

Hi @NP
Getting 1.2V on LDO3_OUT is abnormal.
Since you are using DDR3, BUCK2/VOUT2 supposed to be @1.35V so LDO3_OUT @675mV
And all of this is turn-on only by TF-A when starting DDR power rail.
I don't understand why you trap early when reading DTS..
I read this in your trace:
WARNING: VDD unknown
wich is very weird also ..
What's your PMIC exact reference ?
Is your design a clone of DK2 ?
Can you share Tsv file you have programmed in your boot device ?
Thanks
Olivier

Sorry for wrong info. We got 0.67v only at ldo3. We are using STPMIC1A and is based on DK2 design only.

Hi, i have the same problem: nothing seems to be accepted as the voltage value for ldo3 since i upgraded to trusted-firmware-a 2.6.
How did you solve the problem?

Hi @NP
This sound like the DDR is not working well.
After basic checks (correct supplies levels, correct DDR connections in schematics, soldering issues, etc...), you likely have to focus on DDR routing/config/check using AN5122 and AN5168 as well as STM32DDRFW_UTIL
Regards.

Got the same issue after building everything with yocto according to this.
DTS files were created following "Lab-MP15_FromPartNumber_To_BasicDeviceTree_with_CubeMx ".
Console output when trying to download the result with CubeProgrammer.

The values for that ldo are kept the same as in the original bsp from manufacturer but that uses v2.1 and the above is the result of v5.0...
vtt_ddr: ldo3 {
regulator-name = "vtt_ddr";
regulator-min-microvolt = <500000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <750000>;
regulator-always-on;
regulator-over-current-protection;
st,regulator-sink-source;
};
According to what @NP mentioned, you'd expect the issue is that the max value check is comparing to the values for the 'normal mode' instead of the 'sink-source mode' (stpmic1 page 27).
