Component Type: kbuild config
Description: PCF857x, PCA{85,96}7x, and MAX732[89] I2C GPIO expanders
More info: Say yes here to provide access to most "quasi-bidirectional" I2C GPIO expanders used for additional digital outputs or inputs. Most of these parts are from NXP, though TI is a second source for some of them. Compatible models include: 8 bits: pcf8574, pcf8574a, pca8574, pca8574a, pca9670, pca9672, pca9674, pca9674a, max7328, max7329 16 bits: pcf8575, pcf8575c, pca8575, pca9671, pca9673, pca9675 Your board setup code will need to declare the expanders in use, and assign numbers to the GPIOs they expose. Those GPIOs can then be used from drivers and other kernel code, just like other GPIOs, but only accessible from task contexts. This driver provides an in-kernel interface to those GPIOs using platform-neutral GPIO calls.
