15.1 How to read this chapter
The I
2
C-bus block is identical for all LPC111x, LPC11D14, and LPC11Cxx parts.
The I2C-bus is interface is not available on part LPC1112FDH20/102.
15.2 Basic configuration
The I
2
C-bus interface is configured using the following registers:
1. Pins: The I2C pin functions and the I2C mode are configured in the IOCONFIG
register block (Section 7.4
, Table 68 and Table 69).
2. Power and peripheral clock: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 5 (Table 21
).
3. Reset: Before accessing the I2C block, ensure that the I2C_RST_N bit (bit 1) in the
PRESETCTRL register (Table 9
) is set to 1. This de-asserts the reset signal to the I2C
block.
15.3 Features
Standard I
2
C-compliant bus interfaces may be configured as Master, Slave, or
Master/Slave.
Arbitration is handled between simultaneously transmitting masters without corruption
of serial data on the bus.
Programmable clock allows adjustment of I
2
C transfer rates.
Data transfer is bidirectional between masters and slaves.
Serial clock synchronization allows devices with different bit rates to communicate via
one serial bus.
Serial clock synchronization is used as a handshake mechanism to suspend and
resume serial transfer.
Supports Fast-mode Plus.
Optional recognition of up to four distinct slave addresses.
Monitor mode allows observing all I
2
C-bus traffic, regardless of slave address.
I
2
C-bus can be used for test and diagnostic purposes.
The I
2
C-bus contains a standard I
2
C-compliant bus interface with two pins.
15.4 Applications
Interfaces to external I
2
C standard parts, such as serial RAMs, LCDs, tone generators,
other microcontrollers, etc.
