19.0 INTER-INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
(I
2
C™)
The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I
2
C) module provides
complete hardware support for both Slave and
Multi-Master modes of the I
2
C serial communication
standard with a 16-bit interface.
The I
2
C module has a 2-pin interface:
The SCLx pin is clock.
The SDAx pin is data.
The I
2
C module offers the following key features:
•I
2
C Interface Supporting Both Master and Slave
modes of Operation
•I
2
C Slave mode Supports 7-Bit and
10-Bit Addressing
•I
2
C Master mode Supports 7-Bit and
10-Bit Addressing
•I
2
C Port allows Bidirectional Transfers Between
Master and Slaves
Serial Clock Synchronization for I
2
C Port can be
used as a Handshake Mechanism to Suspend
and Resume Serial Transfer (SCLREL control)
•I
2
C Supports Multi-Master Operation, Detects Bus
Collision and Arbitrates Accordingly
19.1 Operating Modes
The hardware fully implements all the master and slave
functions of the I
2
C Standard and Fast mode
specifications, as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing.
The I
2
C module can operate either as a slave or a
master on an I
2
C bus.
The following types of I
2
C operation are supported:
•I
2
C slave operation with 7-bit addressing
•I
2
C slave operation with 10-bit addressing
•I
2
C master operation with 7-bit or 10-bit addressing
For details about the communication sequence in each
of these modes, refer to the “dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family
Reference Manual”. Please see the Microchip web site
(www.microchip.com) for the latest “dsPIC33F/PIC24H
Family Reference Manual” sections.

C Registers
I2CxCON and I2CxSTAT are control and status
registers, respectively. The I2CxCON register is
readable and writable. The lower six bits of I2CxSTAT
are read-only. The remaining bits of the I2CSTAT are
read/write:
I2CxRSR is the shift register used for shifting data
internal to the module and the user application
has no access to it.
I2CxRCV is the receive buffer and the register to
which data bytes are written or from which data
bytes are read.
I2CxTRN is the transmit register to which bytes
are written during a transmit operation.
The I2CxADD register holds the slave address.
A status bit, ADD10, indicates 10-Bit Addressing
mode.
The I2CxBRG acts as the Baud Rate Generator
(BRG) reload value.
In receive operations, I2CxRSR and I2CxRCV together
form a double-buffered receiver. When I2CxRSR
receives a complete byte, it is transferred to I2CxRCV
and an interrupt pulse is generated.
