Communications interfaces
I2C interface characteristics
The I2C interface meets the requirements of the standard I2C communication protocol with
the following restrictions: the I/O pins SDA and SCL are mapped to are not “true” open-
drain. When configured as open-drain, the PMOS connected between the I/O pin and VDD is
disabled, but is still present.
The I2C characteristics are described in Table 56. Refer also to Section 6.3.14: I/O port
characteristics for more details on the input/output alternate function characteristics (SDA
and SCL).

1. The I2C characteristics are the requirements from the I2C bus specification rev03. They are guaranteed by
design when the I2Cx_TIMING register is correctly programmed (refer to reference manual). These
characteristics are not tested in production.
2. The maximum tHD;DAT could be 3.45 µs, 0.9 µs and 0.45 µs for standard mode, fast mode and fast mode
plus, but must be less than the maximum of tVD;DAT or tVD;ACK by a transition time.
