MULTI-MASTER I²C-BUS Interface
MULTI-MASTER I²C-BUS INTERFACE
The multi-master I²C-BUS interface is a serial communication circuit based on Philips I²C-BUS data transfer
format. 3 independent channels, with both arbitration lost detection and a synchronous functions, are built in
for the multi-master serial communication. Fig.GC-1 shows a block diagram of the multi-master I²C-BUS
interface and Table.GC-1 lists the multi-master I²C-BUS interface functions. The multi-master I²C-BUS in-
terface consists of the I²C address register, the I²C data shift register, the I²C clock control register, the I²C
control register 1, I²C control register 2, the I²C status register, the I²C start/stop condition control register
and other control circuits.
