Hello Josue O. 

Thank you for your reply.
I would like to ask you the following questions.

1.On the motherboard on which the N3350 we are using is mounted, SMBUS Clk / Data with device ID 5ad4 exists as
  an external I / F.
  The temperature sensor / EEPROM is connected to the external I / F as a slave device.
  Is byte write possible for these two devices?

2.I am using Linux as the above OS, and I am using a driver that can be built with the driver source as attached.
  Byte read can be done without any problem using the attached source driver, but when byte write is executed,
  it becomes DEV_ERR.  
  The following is the execution result of the Linux command to access the SMBUS controller using the attached driver.
  Is there a mistake in the control method of the SMBUS controller? 
  Are there any restrictions when running byte write?

Hello Josue O. 

 

The page I'm looking at has two types of replies.

1.Reply to your message
  When I use this reply, I also cannot see the reply from the forum page.
  I can refer to it from the link address in the message sent to my email.
  The first question I sent to you used this reply.

2.Reply to topic
  We can use this reply to browse the message from the forum page.
  The second question (the same question as the first) used this reply.

Which reply should I use to interact with you?
(This reply uses a reply to the topic.)

The first question wasn't visible in the forum at first, but it's now visible.
I don't know why

Hello okuda, 


Thank you for the information provided, I will check your inquiries internally and post back soon with more details. 


Regarding the reply, both options should work and they both will post in the thread.

Hello okuda, 


In this case, because the SMBUS is related to the chipset, you need to contact the system manufacturer to know if the setup is supported in the system. This is because OEMs may have customized chipset settings that can change how the system work and its supported features. 


Hope this information is useful, if you need any additional information, please submit a new question as this thread will no longer be monitored.
