I2C Compatible Interface
I2C SIGNALS
In I2C compatible mode, the LP3950 pin SCL is used for the I2C clock and the SDA pin is used for the I2C data.
Both these signals need a pull-up resistor according to I2C specification. The values of the pull-up resistors are
determined by the capacitance of the bus (typ. 1.8k). Signal timing specifications are shown in Table 2. Unused
pin SO can be left unconnected and pin SI must be connected to VDDIO or GND (address selector). Maximum bit
rate is 400 kbit/s (VDDIO 1.80V to VDD1,2V). I2C compatible interface can be used down to 1.65 VDDIO with
maximum bit rate of 200 kbit/s.
I2C DATA VALIDITY
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock signal (SCL). In other words, state
of the data line can only be changed when CLK is LOW.
