An i2c gate is useful to e.g. reduce the digital noise for RF tuners connected
|
|
to the i2c bus. Gates are similar to arbitrators in that you need to perform
|
|
some kind of operation to access the i2c bus past the arbitrator/gate, but
|
|
there are no competing masters to consider for gates and therefore there is
|
|
no arbitration happening for gates.
|
|
|
|
Common i2c gate properties.
|
|
|
|
- i2c-gate child node
|
|
|
|
Required properties for the i2c-gate child node:
|
|
- #address-cells = <1>;
|
|
- #size-cells = <0>;
|
|
|
|
Optional properties for i2c-gate child node:
|
|
- Child nodes conforming to i2c bus binding
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example :
|
|
|
|
/*
|
|
An Invensense mpu9150 at address 0x68 featuring an on-chip Asahi
|
|
Kasei ak8975 compass behind a gate.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
mpu9150@68 {
|
|
compatible = "invensense,mpu9150";
|
|
reg = <0x68>;
|
|
interrupt-parent = <&gpio1>;
|
|
interrupts = <18 1>;
|
|
|
|
i2c-gate {
|
|
#address-cells = <1>;
|
|
#size-cells = <0>;
|

ax8975@c {

compatible = "ak,ak8975";
