Orange Pi Zero 2W overlay I2C SPI help

Hi,

 

How to enable i2c on PI8(SDA) and PI7(SCL)?
I'm newbie in linux and not really understand what am I actually doing so I tried to make it with chatgpt but still not working.
 

root@orangepizero2w:/# sudo i2cdetect -y 0

It can't see any device, but there should be one on the 0x21.

Could somebody help me out with this?

Tried to edit device tree via armbian-config (now it is probably kinda messy):

You and I have more brains than this moron!

 

This is the diagram of your device.

OPI-Zero-2W-40pin-definition-diagram.thumb.png.bc354e72281cf1982ff466562ff0fe75.png

 

Please publish the part of the DTS extracted directly from the working device:

dtc --sort -I fs -O dts  /sys/firmware/devicetree/base > dts-spi-out.txt

Only nodes: pio, i2c0_pins

 

And if you can find a complete pinout of the 40pin connector.

We will try to make the correct overlay.

I apologize. I didn't notice the spoiler.
It seems that all PI pins (7, 8, 9, 10) are already occupied?

  • Author

Well.. there was a little problem so i reinstalled the whole OS.
Currently I only modified armbianEnv.txt. I added this line: overlays:i2c0
I also installed armbian-config and found i2c0-pi in System/Hardware so I enabled it.
The device tree is currently unmodified so it has default configuration.

It seems that all PI pins (7, 8, 9, 10) are already occupied?

Should I remove the PI7-8 from rgmii-pins and then change the i2c0-pins to "PI8\0PI7"?
It has also a i2c0-pi-pins. Which one should I modify?
 

i2c0-pi-pins {
  pins = "PI5\0PI6";
  function = "i2c0";
  phandle = <0x56>;
};


i2c0-pins {
  pins = "PI6\0PI7";
  function = "i2c0";
  phandle = <0x1e>;
};

I'm at a loss.
I have a dataset h616.
And this corresponds to the DTS:

sun50i-h616.dtsi#L171

 

Probably nothing needs to be modified.
Just enable (apply standard overlay):

Write an overlay file sun50i-h616-i2c0.dts:

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;

/ {
	compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-h616-i2c";

	fragment@0 {
		target-path = "/aliases";
		__overlay__ {
			i2c0 = "/soc/i2c@5002000";
		};
	};

	fragment@1 {
		target = <&i2c0>;
		__overlay__ {
			status = "okay";
		};
	};
};

Compile the overlay:
dtc -I dts -O dtb -o sun50i-h616-i2c0.dtso sun50i-h616-i2c0.dts

copy sun50i-h616-i2c0.dtso file to /boot/dtb-**-sunxi/overlay/

armbianEnv.txt:

overlay_prefix=sun50i-h616
overlays=i2c0

 

P.S.

pins = "PI6", "PI7";

40-pin: 22, 5 number

Please check it out

Yeah, I just realized that after the reinstall everything worked fine. Maybe I just messed up something before. Thank you for your help!
Now I have another issue with SPI. Can I write here or should I open a new topic?

Thanks,

So I have an SD Card module connected to SPI1 (CS0) pins.
