System Management Bus (SMBus)
The I/O Hub (PCH) contains an integrated SMBus controller with both a host and slave SMBus port; but the
host cannot access the slave internally. The slave port allows an external master access to the PCH through
the COM Express A-B connector. Table 3-4 lists the device names and corresponding reserved addresses on
the SMBus.
GPIO
The Express-IBR provides GPIO (General Purpose I/O) pins for custom use through the COM Express A-B
connector. Use the ADLINK Intelligent Device Interface (AIDI) Library to configure the GPIO interface.
AIDI driver information is available on the Express-IBR Product page at: http://www.adlinktech.com
. An
AIDI demo program and the AIDI User’s Manual describing how to use the GPIO pins also reside in the
Utilities tab of the Express-IBR Product page.
For more information about GPIO pin operation, refer to the PCA9535BS GPIO Generator datasheet. See
“References” on page 1 for a hyper link to the datasheet.
Table 3-5 provides the pin signals for the COM Express A-B connector (CN6).
