Mraa -supports it as a USB subplatform using the libft4222 library from FTDI which -can be found -[here](http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/SoftwareExamples/libft4222-1.2.1.4.tgz). -You need the latest version for the GPIO to work. - -The FT4222H has 4 configuration modes selected by {DCNF1, DCNF0}. The chip -configuration mode will determine the number of USB interfaces for data streams -and for GPIOs control. Mraa supports chip modes CNFMODE0 and CNFMODE3. In -CNFMODE0 the chip can provide either 4 GPIOs and SPI, or 2 GPIOs and I2C -since SCL/SDA are shared with GPIO0/GPIO1. It is possible to change this -selection dynamically by calling the corresponding mraa init functions. -CNFMODE3 on the other hand will only provide SPI or I2C. - -By default, both modes start with I2C enabled and the driver will scan for -known GPIO expanders on the I2C bus when the FT4222H is initialized. - -Supported GPIO expanders: -* PCA9672 -* PCA9555 -* PCF8575 - -Output from 'mraa-gpio list' would be as follows: -~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -512 IGPIO0/SCL0: GPIO I2C -513 IGPIO1/SDA0: GPIO I2C -514 INT-GPIO2: GPIO -515 INT-GPIO3: GPIO -~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -When an I2C GPIO expander is present, the pins on the expander will appear after -the 4 FT4222H GPIO pins (i.e. starting at physical pin #4, logical pin #516). -~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -512 IGPIO0/SCL0: GPIO I2C -513 IGPIO1/SDA0: GPIO I2C -514 INT-GPIO2: GPIO -515 INT-GPIO3: GPIO -516 EXP-GPIO0: GPIO -517 EXP-GPIO1: GPIO -518 EXP-GPIO2: GPIO -519 EXP-GPIO3: GPIO -520 EXP-GPIO4: GPIO -521 EXP-GPIO5: GPIO -522 EXP-GPIO6: GPIO -523 EXP-GPIO7: GPIO -~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -If a PCA9545 I2C switch is detected an extra four I2C busses will appear, -representing the four downstream busses.
