 +===== Enable I2C =====
 +
 +In order to use the I2C, you need to enable the I2C function via [[products:sbc:common:configurations:device-tree-overlay|Device Tree Overlay]].
 +
 +<tabbox VIM1/2/3/3L/Edge1>
 +
 +Edit ''/boot/env.txt'' to add the i2c node to ''overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +Take VIM3 as an example to enable ''I2CM 3'', you need to add ''i2c3'' node to ''overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +```shell
 +overlays=uart4 pwm_ao_a pwm_f i2c3
 +```
 +
 +After reboot, you will see the I2C device node.
 +
 +```shell
 +$ ls /dev/i2c-3
 +/dev/i2c-3
 +```
 +
 +<tabbox VIM3 with 5.15 kernel>
 +
 +Edit ''/boot/dtb/amlogic/kvim3.dtb.overlay.env'' to add i2c node to ''fdt_overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +
 +e.g. To enable ''I2CM 3'', you need to add ''i2c3'' to node ''fdt_overlays'' if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +```shell
 +fdt_overlays=i2c3
 +
 +```
 +
 +After reboot, you will see the I2C device node.
 +
 +<tabbox VIM3L with 5.15 kernel>
 +
 +Edit ''/boot/dtb/amlogic/kvim3l.dtb.overlay.env'' to add i2c node to ''fdt_overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +
 +e.g. To enable ''I2CM 3'', you need to add ''i2c3'' to node ''fdt_overlays'' if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +```shell
 +fdt_overlays=i2c3
 +
 +```
 +
 +After reboot, you will see the I2C device node.
 +
 +<tabbox VIM4>
 +
 +Edit ''/boot/dtb/amlogic/kvim4.dtb.overlay.env'' to add i2c node to ''fdt_overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +
 +e.g. To enable ''I2CM A'', you need to add ''i2cm_a'' to node ''fdt_overlays'' if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +```shell
 +fdt_overlays=i2cm_a
 +
 +```
 +
 +After reboot, you will see the I2C device node.
 +
 +```shell
 +$ ls /dev/i2c-0
 +/dev/i2c-0
 +```
 +
 +<tabbox VIM1S>
 +
 +Edit ''/boot/dtb/amlogic/kvim1s.dtb.overlay.env'' to add i2c node to ''fdt_overlays'' node if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +
 +e.g. To enable ''I2CM E'', you need to add ''i2cm_e'' to node ''fdt_overlays'' if it doesn't exist.
 +
 +```shell
 +fdt_overlays=i2cm_e
 +
 +```
 +
 +After reboot, you will see the I2C device node.
 +
 +```shell
 +$ ls /dev/i2c-4
 +/dev/i2c-4
 +```
 +
 +</tabbox>
 +
 +===== I2C Usage =====
 +
 +Please check the [[https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jammy/en/man8/i2cdetect.8.html|I2C Usage]].
 +
 +
 +===== Disable I2C to Use GPIO =====
 +
 +If you want to use normal GPIO instead of I2C, you can remove the I2C node in [[products:sbc:common:configurations:device-tree-overlay|Device Tree Overlay]].
