Common i2c bus multiplexer/switch properties. An i2c bus multiplexer/switch will have several child busses that are numbered uniquely in a device dependent manner. The nodes for an i2c bus multiplexer/switch will have one child node for each child bus. Optional properties: - #address-cells = <1>; This property is required is the i2c-mux child node does not exist. - #size-cells = <0>; This property is required is the i2c-mux child node does not exist. - i2c-mux For i2c multiplexers/switches that have child nodes that are a mixture of both i2c child busses and other child nodes, the 'i2c-mux' subnode can be used for populating the i2c child busses. If an 'i2c-mux' subnode is present, only subnodes of this will be considered as i2c child busses. Required properties for the i2c-mux child node: - #address-cells = <1>; - #size-cells = <0>; Required properties for i2c child bus nodes: - #address-cells = <1>; - #size-cells = <0>; - reg : The sub-bus number. Optional properties for i2c child bus nodes: - Other properties specific to the multiplexer/switch hardware. - Child nodes conforming to i2c bus binding Example : /* An NXP pca9548 8 channel I2C multiplexer at address 0x70 with two NXP pca8574 GPIO expanders attached, one each to ports 3 and 4. */ mux@70 { compatible = "nxp,pca9548"; reg = <0x70>; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; i2c@3 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; reg = <3>; gpio1: gpio@38 { compatible = "nxp,pca8574"; reg = <0x38>; #gpio-cells = <2>; gpio-controller; }; }; i2c@4 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; reg = <4>; gpio2: gpio@38 { compatible = "nxp,pca8574"; reg = <0x38>; #gpio-cells = <2>; gpio-controller; }; }; }; |
