Compute Module • Re: RPI-CM5 MIPI interface and GPIO's conflict

The I2c0 port is used to communcation with the device on the end of the MIPI port - display or camera - in order to indentify it but also to send setup and control information. If you are NOT using the MIPI port for anything you can use I2C for other purposes.

However, there are a load of other I2C ports available on the GPIO that you can use, why not use those?

I need 3 separate I2c buses in my product
