-```sh +
-khadas@Khadas:~$ ll /boot/dtb/overlays/kvim3 +
-``` +

-/dts-v1/; +
-/plugin/; +
- +
-/ { +
-    fragment@0 { +
-        target = <&i2c3>; +

-            status = "okay"; +
-        }+
-    }+
-}; +
-``` +
- +
-This device tree overlay is to enable `i2c3`. +
- +
-  * Compile it to dtbo ``` +
-khadas@Khadas:~$ dtc -I dts -O dtb -o example.dtbo example.dts +
-khadas@Khadas:~$ ls example.dtbo +
-example.dtbo +
-``` +
- +
-  * Move the dtbo file to ''/boot/dtb/overlays/kvim3'' +
- +
