29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm pcf8574
32.Nd driver for the PCF8574 8-bit I2C IO expander
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile this driver into the kernel,
35place the following lines in your
36kernel configuration file:
37.Bd -ragged -offset indent
38.Cd "device pcf8574"
39.Cd "device gpio"
40.Cd "device iicbus"
41.Ed
42.Pp
43Alternatively, to load the driver as a
44module at boot time, place the following line in
45.Xr loader.conf 5 :
46.Bd -literal -offset indent
47pcf8574_load="YES"
48.Ed
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The
51.Nm
52driver provides
53.Xr gpiobus 4
54control over 8 GPIO pins.
55The pins are quasi-bidirectional.
56Only low output can be actively driven.
57High output is equivalent to input.
58.Pp
59On an
60.Xr FDT 4
61based system the following properties must be set:
62.Bl -tag -width "compatible"
63.It Va compatible
64Must be set to "nxp,pcf8574".
65.It Va reg
66The I2C address of
67.Nm .
68.El
69.Pp
70The DTS part for a
71.Nm
72device usually looks like:
73.Bd -literal
74/ {
75
76	...
77	pcf8574@27 {
78		compatible = "nxp,pcf8574";
79		reg = <0x27>;
80	};
81};

87.Sh HISTORY
88The
89.Nm
90driver and this manual page was written by
91.An Andriy Gapon Aq Mt avg@FreeBSD.org .
92.Sh BUGS
93The
94.Nm
95driver does not support the input change interrupt
96that the hardware provides.
