+description: |
+  This binding is used to describe a basic backlight device made of LEDs.
+  It can also be used to describe a backlight device controlled by the
+  output of a LED driver.
+
+properties:
+  compatible:
+    const: led-backlight
+
+  leds:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array
+    description: List of LEDs constitutive of the backlight.
+
+  default-brightness:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
+    description: Default brightness level on boot.
+    minimum: 0
+
+  brightness-levels:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array
+    description: Array of distinct brightness levels. The levels must be in
+      the range accepted by the underlying LED devices. This is used to
+      translate a backlight brightness level into a LED brightness level. If
+      it is not provided, the identity mapping is used.

+    backlight {
+      compatible = "led-backlight";
+      backlight-leds = <&led1>;
+      brightness-levels = <0 4 8 16 32 64 128 255>;
