Above code is just one part. We are doing read/writes to all devices present on this board https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/boards_and_kits/zcu102/ug1182-zcu102-eval-bd.pdf > > > Our board has multiple power monitors, eeprom and other misc devices > > that are accessed through the same driver and are working fine. > > That does not seem to be what the test above does . > > >> Do you also test writes which are not 1 byte long ? > >> > > > > Yes, like for eeprom 1 page (16 bytes) is written. > > I suspect the atmel mxt does much longer writes, try 255 bytes or so.

Yes, that is the plan, we are trying to get the part. Only problem is it is subject to availability and may take more time to get it delivered to our place. Regards, Raviteja N
