Description

Provides a set of I2C tools for Linux. I2C is a low-level bus used by sensors, EEPROMs, power controllers, displays, and many embedded or hardware-management devices.

It is useful for hardware diagnostics, embedded development, board bring-up, repair, and inspecting connected chips. Use with care because writing to the wrong I2C address or register can confuse or damage devices.

How to run
