I2CX - software I2C master
Posted: Thu Feb 23, 2023 4:04 pm
Many new devices no longer have an MSSP I2C peripheral (including the xv18 core devices), and the I2C peripheral in those devices is not compatible with the hdw I2C/I2C2 modules.
This new module (I2CX.bas) is a software I2C master that adds support for clock-stretching, which is useful for those slaves that require it (the existing SI2C module drives the SCL in push-pull fashion so it's not 100% I2C compliant). It has a few new features such as an event callback to let you setup IO pins (digital mode, slew rate, pullups, etc).
Here's an example... it's very similar to the existing modules
I2CX will be included in the next update.
