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 if the i2c-mux child node does not exist.
- #size-cells = <0>;
This property is required if 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;
};
};
