    Hi Eric,


    I am not sure which pins you are referring to, but yes you can connect and access them from HPS, but you need to connect to the right pins, please check your schematic diagram which has the I2C pins available.


    Also, you need to make sure the I2C pins are "routed to HPS" in Platform Designer.

    Hi and thanks for the help.

    If i refer to the platform designer used :

    If i understand well only the first (Set 0) I2C controller is activated and used I2C0 and I2C1 pins

    But how to put these pins outside (GPIO) to connect a sensor from outside ?

    Best regards
