I2C is a two-wire communication protocol known for its simplicity. Despite this reputation, I2C does have its challenges: a limited number of bits for a unique address can create address conflicts, or ...

I2C has a seven-bit address space, and you’re thinking “when do I ever need more than 127 devices on a pair of wires?” So you order up some parts only to find that they have one, two, or three ...

I had one of those why-didn’t-I-think-of-it moments this week, reading this article about multiplexing I2C on the ESP32 microcontroller. The idea is so good, and so simple, that it’s almost silly that ...

Several of the Mid-Range Enhanced Core PIC16 microcontroller devices have a Master Synchronous Serial Port (MSSP). The MSSP module can be used to implement either I2CTM or SPI communications protocol.

In my last column [LJ, December 2003], we discussed how I2C bus drivers and I2C algorithm drivers work. We also described how to make a tiny dummy I2C bus driver. This month, we discuss how an I2C ...

Adafruit has this week announced the arrival of the new Arduino compatible TCA9548A I2C Multiplexer to their online shop, which is now available to purchase priced at $6.95. The latest breakout board ...
