Experience with Maxim 310X Driver for I2C<->UART Communications

Hi,

We’re adding UART ports to a custom am5728-based board with a Maxim 3107 I2C<-> UART chip.

Does anyone have experience with the Maxim 3107 chip and the associated driver (max310x) for UART over I2C on the BeagleBone, BeagleBoard, etc? If so, what issues have you encountered?

Thus far, I’ve only found the following. I haven’t yet found anyone posting issues on the driver and/or the chip.

Patch for adding I2C<->UART functionality to the Linux driver:

Thanks in advance!
