Understanding the I²C Bus Timing in Embedded Systems

The I²C bus is very common in embedded systems, but recently in a group (possibly a beginner group) communication, I was quite surprised that many people do not even understand the I²C bus basics. Today, I will explain the timing of the I²C bus. Many electronic engineers should know about the I²C bus from EEPROM … Read more

Basics of Bus – I2C Bus

Introduction When it comes to driver development, we must mention the bus; the bus is the bridge for data transmission between devices. Computers categorize buses into three types: data bus, address bus, and control bus, which are collectively referred to as the system bus. Generally, the system bus, internal bus, and external bus are known … Read more

Understanding the I2C Bus

1. Overview The I2C bus is a very popular and powerful bus, commonly used for communication between one (or multiple) master devices and one or more slave devices. Figure 1 shows that various peripherals can share this bus, which only requires two wires to connect to the processor. This is one of the biggest advantages … Read more

Detailed Overview of I2C and SPI Communication Protocols

There are many serial communication protocols, among which I2C and SPI are very well-known.I2C and SPI are both bus protocols that allow users to perform short-distance serial data transmission. I2C is a two-wire communication protocol developed by Philips (now NXP), while SPI was developed by Motorola. These two protocols are commonly used in electronic devices … Read more
