Start an I2C driver
Syntax:
i2c-bcm2711 [-c clock] [-i irq] [-p addr] [-s slave addr] [-v addr] [--b bus_speed] [--u unit]Options:
- -c clock
- The default value is 5000 (100KHz).
- -i irq
- The I2C interrupt. The default value is 149.
- -p addr
- The I2C base address. The default value is 0.
- -s slave addr
- The slave address. Only 7 bit addresses are supported. The default value is 0.
- -v addr
- Set the verbosity. The default value is 2.
Generic options:
- --b bus_speed
- The default bus speed. The default value is 10000.
- --u unit
- The unit number, which is a number to append to the device name prefix (/dev/i2c). The default value is 0.
Description:
The i2c-bcm2711 starts an I2C driver on a Raspberry
Pi.
Note:
Different boards might require a different driver, but interfacing with
the driver should be similar across boards.
Example:
i2c-bcm2711 -p0xfe804000 --b100000 --u1Page updated:
