Description
Embedded Characteristics
The Atmel Two-wire Interface (TWI) interconnects components on a unique two-wire bus, made
up of one clock line and one data line with speeds of up to 400 Kbits per second, based on a
byte-oriented transfer format. It can be used with any Atmel Two-wire Interface bus Serial
EEPROM and I²C compatible device such as Real Time Clock (RTC), Dot Matrix/Graphic LCD
Controllers and Temperature Sensor, to name but a few. The TWI is programmable as a master
or a slave with sequential or single-byte access. Multiple master capability is supported. 20
Arbitration of the bus is performed internally and puts the TWI in slave mode automatically if the
bus arbitration is lost.
A configurable baud rate generator permits the output data rate to be adapted to a wide range of
core clock frequencies.

Multi Master Capability
• Master, Multi-Master and Slave Mode Operation
• Compatibility with Atmel two-wire interface, serial memory and I
• One, two or three bytes for slave address
• Sequential read/write operations
• Bit Rate: Up to 400 kbit/s
• General Call Supported in Slave Mode
• Connecting to PDC channel capabilities optimizes data transfers in Master Mode only
– One channel for the receiver, one channel for the transmitter
– Next buffer support
