I2C is a two-wire, bidirectional serials bus that provide a simple, efficient method of data exchange between devices.

You can find I2C specification on <A HREF=http://www-us.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/various/I2C_BUS_SPECIFICATION_3.pdf> Phillips web Site</A>.

<font size=+1><b>What you get</b></font><p>
13
The simplest master I2C ever built! Requirement is low gate count so features are restricted:<BR>
14
<UL>
15
<LI>No Multimaster operation
16
<LI>No FIFO
17
<LI>No slave mode
18
</UL>

The processor interface is composed of four registers:
22
<UL>
23
<LI>Timing Register (TR)
24
<LI>Control Register (CR)
25
<LI>Status Register (SR)
26
<LI>Data Register (DR)
27
</UL>

This is a copy of <I>ColdFire</I> MBUS Interface Programmer's Model from Motorola.

There is the preliminary block diagram :

33
The design is fully synchronous, only one clock. The Timing register fix the output rate of the I2C bus.
34
<br>
35
The bus interface is not specified at this time and it would be either OR1K specific bus or APB (from AMBA specification).
