From Equation 1, R
up(min)
= 5.5 V/3 mA = 1.83 kΩ to operate the bus under a 5-V pullup voltage and provide less
than 3 mA when the I
2
C device is driving the bus to a low state. If a higher sink current, for example 4 mA, is
allowed, R
up(min)
can be as low as 1.375 kΩ.
Given a 5-V I
2
C device with input low- and high-threshold voltages at 0.3 V
dd
and 0.7 V
dd
, respectively, the value
of k is 0.8473 from Table 4. Taking into account the 1.83-kΩ pullup resistor, the maximum total load capacitance
is C
(total-5V)
= 645 pF. C
cable(max)
should be restricted to be less than 545 pF if C
source
and C
i
can be as high as 50
pF. Here the C
i
is treated as C
sink
, the load capacitance of a sink device.
Fixing the maximum transition time from Table 4, T = 1 μs, and using the k values from Table 4, the
recommended maximum total resistance of the pullup resistors on an I
2
C bus can be calculated for different
system setups.
To support the maximum load capacitance specified in the HDMI spec, C
cable(max)
= 700 pF/C
source
= 50 pF/C
i
=
50 pF, R
(max)
can be calculated as shown in Table 5.

Obviously, to accommodate the 3-mA drive-current specification, a narrower threshold voltage range is required
to support a maximum 800-pF load capacitance for a standard-mode I
2
C bus.
When the input low- and high-level threshold voltages, V
th–
and V
th+
, are 0.7 V and 1.9 V, respectively, which is
0.15 V
DD
and 0.4 V
DD
, approximately, then with V
DD
= 5 V from Table 5, the maximum pullup resistor is 3.59 kΩ.
The allowable pullup resistor is in the range of 1.83 kΩ and 3.59 kΩ.
