> Setting LDO7 to control TMU I observed following output on powerdebug.
> I observed that the power drawn by the board on Odroid show is much

> I can see the HDMI output on Odroid-V2 display screen.
> I have done some stress testing on this configuration and It worked correctly.

I don't understand how grepping through /sys/class/regulator helps in
making this decision. I just don't get it. Can you please explain it
to me?
Best regards,
