5.7 I²C BUS INTERFACE (I²C)
5.7.1 Introduction
The I²C Bus Interface serves as an interface be-
tween the microcontroller and the serial I²C bus. It
provides both multimaster and slave functions,
and controls all I²C bus-specific sequencing, pro-
tocol, arbitration and timing. It supports fast I²C
mode (400 kHz).

5.7.3 General Description
In addition to receiving and transmitting data, this
interface converts it from serial to parallel format
and vice versa, using either an interrupt or polled

handshake. The interrupts are enabled or disabled
by software. The interface is connected to the I²C
bus by a data pin (SDAI) and by a clock pin (SCLI).
It can be connected both with a standard I²C bus
and a Fast I²C bus. This selection is made by soft-
ware.
Mode Selection
The interface can operate in the four following
modes:
– Slave transmitter/receiver
– Master transmitter/receiver
By default, it operates in slave mode.
The interface automatically switches from slave to
master after it generates a START condition and
from master to slave in case of arbitration loss or a
STOP generation, this allows Multi-Master capa-
bility.
Communication Flow
In Master mode, it initiates a data transfer and
generates the clock signal. A serial data transfer
always begins with a start condition and ends with
a stop condition. Both start and stop conditions are
generated in master mode by software.
In Slave mode, the interface is capable of recog-
nising its own address (7-bit), and the General Call
address. The General Call address detection may
be enabled or disabled by software.
Data and addresses are transferred as 8-bit bytes,
MSB first. The first byte following the start condi-
tion is the address byte; it is always transmitted in
Master mode.
A 9th clock pulse follows the 8 clock cycles of a
byte transfer, during which the receiver must send
an acknowledge bit to the transmitter. Refer to
