+AK4642 I2C transmitter
+
+This device supports I2C mode only.
+
+Required properties:
+
+  - compatible : "asahi-kasei,ak4642" or "asahi-kasei,ak4643" or "asahi-kasei,ak4648"
+  - reg : The chip select number on the I2C bus
+
+Example:
+
+&i2c {
+	ak4648: ak4648@0x12 {
+		compatible = "asahi-kasei,ak4642";
+		reg = <0x12>;
+	};
