SCL and SDA input is sampled in synchronization with the internal clock. The AC timing
therefore depends on the system clock cycle t
cyc
, as shown in I
2
C bus Timing in section 25,
Electrical Characteristics. Note that the I
2
C bus interface AC timing specifications will not be
met with a system clock frequency of less than 5 MHz.
The I
2
C bus interface specification for the SCL rise time t
sr
is under 1000 ns (300 ns for high-
speed mode). In master mode, the I
2
C bus interface monitors the SCL line and synchronizes
one bit at a time during communication. If t
sr
(the time for SCL to go from low to V
IH
) exceeds
the time determined by the input clock of the I
2
C bus interface, the high period of SCL is
extended. The SCL rise time is determined by the pull-up resistance and load capacitance of
the SCL line. To insure proper operation at the set transfer rate, adjust the pull-up resistance
and load capacitance so that the SCL rise time does not exceed the values given in the table
below.
