An example of a data stream in the script buffer that would direct the Comm back to
communicate in I
2
C to the unit.
Under test is as follows:
The script (above) is interpreted as follows. Tag 0x81 instructs the Comm module to
generate an I
2
C Start bit on the I
2
C bus. Tag 0x84 indicates 2 bytes will be transmitted
following the start – 0xA8 and 0x01. The first byte is the I
2
C slave address (with
Write/Read bit Reset) and a data/command byte of 0x01. The Comm module does not
place any significance on the value of the data bytes but merely transmits them ‘blindly’
– as instructed. The next Tag 0x83 instructs the Comm module to issue a Restart bit
on the I
2
C bus. Tag and data bytes - 0x84, 0x01, 0xA9 – will cause 1 byte (0xA9) to be
transmitted. Here again, the Comm module does not interpret the data – the I
2
C slave
will interpret 0xA9 as an address with Write/Read bit set. Tag 0x89 followed by data
byte 0x01 instructs the Comm module to attempt to read 1 byte from the slave then
issue a NACK on the bus. Finally, an I
2
C Stop bit is issued according to Tag 0x82. The
resulting I
2
C transaction looks like this on the bus:
[START][A8][01][RESTART][A9][data byte received][STOP]
As the script is executed, a data stream will be developed using Tags/CDATA
(described in Table 11-19) and returned to the host software via CBUF2.
