20.4.5.1.1. Calculating High and Low Counts
The calculations below show an example of how to calculate SCL high and low counts for each speed mode in the I2C controller.
The equation to calculate the proper number of l4_sp_clk clock pulses required for setting the proper SCL clocks high and low times is as follows: †
IC_HCNT = ceil(MIN_SCL_HIGHtime*OSCFREQ) IC_LCNT = ceil(MIN_SCL_LOWtime*OSCFREQ) MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = minimum high period MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = 4000 ns for 100 kbps 600 ns for 400 kbps 60 ns for 3.4 Mbs, bus loading = 100pF 160 ns for 3.4 Mbs, bus loading = 400pF MIN_SCL_LOWtime = minimum low period MIN_SCL_LOWtime = 4700 ns for 100 kbps 1300 ns for 400 kbps 120 ns for 3.4Mbs, bus loading = 100pF 320 ns for 3.4Mbs, bus loading = 400pF OSCFREQ = l4_sp_clk clock frequency (Hz) |
Calculating High and Low Counts
OSCFREQ = 100 MHz
I2Cmode = fast, 400 kbps
MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = 600 ns
MIN_SCL_LOWtime = 1300 ns
IC_HCNT = ceil(600 ns * 100 MHz) IC_HCNTSCL PERIOD = 60
IC_LCNT = ceil(1300 ns * 100 MHz) IC_LCNTSCL PERIOD = 130
Actual MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = 60*(1/100 MHz) = 600 ns
Actual MIN_SCL_LOWtime = 130*(1/100 MHz) = 1300 ns †
