Inter-Integrated Circuit (IICV2)
10.1
The inter-IC bus (IIC) is a two-wire, bidirectional serial bus that provides a simple, efficient method of
data exchange between devices. Being a two-wire device, the IIC bus minimizes the need for large
numbers of connections between devices, and eliminates the need for an address decoder.
This bus is suitable for applications requiring occasional communications over a short distance between a
number of devices. It also provides flexibility, allowing additional devices to be connected to the bus for
further expansion and system development.
The interface is designed to operate up to 100 kbps with maximum bus loading and timing. The device is
capable of operating at higher baud rates, up to a maximum of clock/20, with reduced bus loading. The
maximum communication length and the number of devices that can be connected are limited by a
maximum bus capacitance of 400 pF.
10.1.1
The IIC module has the following key features:
10.1.2
The IIC functions the same in normal, special, and emulation modes. It has two low power modes: wait
and stop modes.
