An Inter-IC bus is often used to communicate across circuit-board distances. Here’s a primer on the protocol. At the low end of the spectrum of communication options for “inside the box” communication ...

I should really like I2C more than I do. In principle, it’s a brilliant protocol, and in comparison to asynchronous serial and SPI, it’s very well defined and clearly standardized. On paper, up to 127 ...

When using the I2C bus protocol, the designer must ensure that the hardware complies with the I2C standard. This application report describes the I2C protocol and provides guidelines on debugging a ...

I2C is a two-wire, bidirectional bus protocol that enables effective communication between one master (or multiple masters) and one or more slave devices. It is a straightforward, half-Duplex, ...

Play around with electronics long enough, and eventually you’ll run into I2C devices. These chips – everything from sensors and memory to DACs and ADCs – use a standardized interface that consists of ...

Serial data buses are critical components of many electronic designs. Debugging and troubleshooting the data bus is key to making sure these designs perform as desired. Often, protocol analyzers are ...
