Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C)

Introduction

I2C is a serial, synchronous, multi-device, half-duplex communication protocol that allows co-existence of multiple masters and slaves on the same bus. I2C uses two bidirectional open-drain lines: serial data line (SDA) and serial clock line (SCL), pulled up by resistors.

ESP32-S3 has 2 I2C controller (also called port), responsible for handling communication on the I2C bus. A single I2C controller can be a master or a slave.

Typically, an I2C slave device has a 7-bit address or 10-bit address. ESP32-S3 supports both I2C Standard-mode (Sm) and Fast-mode (Fm) which can go up to 100KHz and 400KHz respectively.

警告

The clock frequency of SCL in master mode should not be larger than 400 KHz

备注

The frequency of SCL is influenced by both the pull-up resistor and the wire capacitance. Therefore, users are strongly recommended to choose appropriate pull-up resistors to make the frequency accurate. The recommended value for pull-up resistors usually ranges from 1K Ohms to 10K Ohms.

Keep in mind that the higher the frequency, the smaller the pull-up resistor should be (but not less than 1 KOhms). Indeed, large resistors will decline the current, which will increase the clock switching time and reduce the frequency. We usually recommend a range of 2 KOhms to 5 KOhms, but users may also need to make some adjustments depending on their current draw requirements.

I2C Clock Configuration

  • i2c_clock_source_t::I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT: Default I2C source clock.

  • i2c_clock_source_t::I2C_CLK_SRC_XTAL: External crystal for I2C clock source.

  • i2c_clock_source_t::I2C_CLK_RC_FAST: Internal 20MHz rc oscillator for I2C clock source.

I2C File Structure

I2C file structure

I2C file structure

Public headers that need to be included in the I2C application

  • i2c.h: The header file of legacy I2C APIs (for apps using legacy driver).

  • i2c_master.h: The header file that provides standard communication mode specific APIs (for apps using new driver with master mode).

  • i2c_slave.h: The header file that provides standard communication mode specific APIs (for apps using new driver with slave mode).

备注

The legacy driver can't coexist with the new driver. Include i2c.h to use the legacy driver or the other two headers to use the new driver. Please keep in mind that the legacy driver is now deprecated and will be removed in future.

Public headers that have been included in the headers above

  • i2c_types_legacy.h: The legacy public types that only used in the legacy driver.

  • i2c_types.h: The header file that provides public types.

Functional Overview

The I2C driver offers following services:

  • Resource Allocation - covers how to allocate I2C bus with properly set of configurations. It also covers how to recycle the resources when they finished working.

  • I2C Master Controller - covers behavior of I2C master controller. Introduce data transmit, data receive, and data transmit and receive.

  • I2C Slave Controller - covers behavior of I2C slave controller. Involve data transmit and data receive.

  • Power Management - describes how different source clock will affect power consumption.

  • IRAM Safe - describes tips on how to make the I2C interrupt work better along with a disabled cache.

  • Thread Safety - lists which APIs are guaranteed to be thread safe by the driver.

  • Kconfig Options - lists the supported Kconfig options that can bring different effects to the driver.

Resource Allocation

Both I2C master bus and I2C slave bus, when supported, are represented by i2c_bus_handle_t in the driver. The available ports are managed in a resource pool that allocates a free port on request.

Install I2C master bus and device

The I2C master is designed based on bus-device model. So i2c_master_bus_config_t and i2c_device_config_t are required separately to allocate the I2C master bus instance and I2C device instance.

I2C master bus-device module

I2C master bus-device module

I2C master bus requires the configuration that specified by i2c_master_bus_config_t:

If the configurations in i2c_master_bus_config_t is specified, users can call i2c_new_master_bus() to allocate and initialize an I2C master bus. This function will return an I2C bus handle if it runs correctly. Specifically, when there are no more I2C port available, this function will return ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND error.

I2C master device requires the configuration that specified by i2c_device_config_t:

Once the i2c_device_config_t structure is populated with mandatory parameters, users can call i2c_master_bus_add_device() to allocate an I2C device instance and mounted to the master bus then. This function will return an I2C device handle if it runs correctly. Specifically, when the I2C bus is not initialized properly, calling this function will result in a ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG error.

#include "driver/i2c_master.h"

i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = {
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = TEST_I2C_PORT,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SDA_IO,
    .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7,
    .flags.enable_internal_pullup = true,
};

i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle));

i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = {
    .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .device_address = 0x58,
    .scl_speed_hz = 100000,
};

i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(bus_handle, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle));

Get I2C master handle via port

Given that i2c master handle has been initialized in some module(e.g. an audio module), an another module(e.g. a video module) is not convenient to reused the handle. We have a helper function, i2c_master_get_bus_handle() for getting the initialized handle via port. However, please make sure the handle has already been initialized ahead of time. Otherwise an error would be reported.

// Source File 1
#include "driver/i2c_master.h"
i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle;
i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = {
    ... // same as others
};
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle));

// Source File 2
#include "driver/i2c_master.h"
i2c_master_bus_handle_t handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_get_bus_handle(0, &handle));

Uninstall I2C master bus and device

If a previously installed I2C bus or device is no longer needed, it's recommended to recycle the resource by calling i2c_master_bus_rm_device() or i2c_del_master_bus(), so that to release the underlying hardware.

Install I2C slave device

I2C slave requires the configuration that specified by i2c_slave_config_t:

Once the i2c_slave_config_t structure is populated with mandatory parameters, users can call i2c_new_slave_device() to allocate and initialize an I2C master bus. This function will return an I2C bus handle if it runs correctly. Specifically, when there are no more I2C port available, this function will return ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND error.

i2c_slave_config_t i2c_slv_config = {
    .addr_bit_len = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = TEST_I2C_PORT,
    .send_buf_depth = 256,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_SLAVE_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_SLAVE_SDA_IO,
    .slave_addr = 0x58,
};

i2c_slave_dev_handle_t slave_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_slave_device(&i2c_slv_config, &slave_handle));

Uninstall I2C slave device

If a previously installed I2C bus is no longer needed, it's recommended to recycle the resource by calling i2c_del_slave_device(), so that to release the underlying hardware.

I2C Master Controller

After installing the i2c master driver by i2c_new_master_bus(), ESP32-S3 is ready to communicate with other I2C devices. I2C APIs allow the standard transactions. Like the wave as follows:

I2C Master Write

After installing I2C master bus successfully, you can simply call i2c_master_transmit() to write data to the slave device. The principle of this function can be explained by following chart.

In order to organize the process, the driver uses a command link, that should be populated with a sequence of commands and then passed to I2C controller for execution.

I2C master write to slave

I2C master write to slave

Simple example for writing data to slave:

#define DATA_LENGTH 100
i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = {
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = I2C_PORT_NUM_0,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SDA_IO,
    .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7,
};
i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle;

ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle));

i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = {
    .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .device_address = 0x58,
    .scl_speed_hz = 100000,
};

i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(bus_handle, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle));

ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_transmit(dev_handle, data_wr, DATA_LENGTH, -1));

I2C Master Read

After installing I2C master bus successfully, you can simply call i2c_master_receive() to read data from the slave device. The principle of this function can be explained by following chart.

I2C master read from slave

I2C master read from slave

Simple example for reading data from slave:

#define DATA_LENGTH 100
i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = {
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = I2C_PORT_NUM_0,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SDA_IO,
    .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7,
};
i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle;

ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle));

i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = {
    .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .device_address = 0x58,
    .scl_speed_hz = 100000,
};

i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(bus_handle, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle));

i2c_master_receive(dev_handle, data_rd, DATA_LENGTH, -1);

I2C Master Write and Read

Some I2C device needs write configurations before reading data from it, therefore, an interface called i2c_master_transmit_receive() can help. The principle of this function can be explained by following chart.

I2C master write to slave and read from slave

I2C master write to slave and read from slave

Simple example for writing and reading from slave:

i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = {
    .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .device_address = 0x58,
    .scl_speed_hz = 100000,
};

i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(I2C_PORT_NUM_0, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle));
uint8_t buf[20] = {0x20};
uint8_t buffer[2];
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_transmit_receive(i2c_bus_handle, buf, sizeof(buf), buffer, 2, -1));

I2C Master Probe

I2C driver can use i2c_master_probe() to detect whether the specific device has been connected on I2C bus. If this function return ESP_OK, that means the device has been detected.

重要

Pull-ups must be connected to the SCL and SDA pins when this function is called. If you get ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT while xfer_timeout_ms was parsed correctly, you should check the pull-up resistors. If you do not have proper resistors nearby, setting flags.enable_internal_pullup as true is also acceptable.

I2C master probe

I2C master probe

Simple example for probing an I2C device:

i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config_1 = {
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = TEST_I2C_PORT,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_MASTER_SDA_IO,
    .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7,
    .flags.enable_internal_pullup = true,
};
i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle;

ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config_1, &bus_handle));
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_probe(bus_handle, 0x22, -1));
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_del_master_bus(bus_handle));

I2C Slave Controller

After installing the i2c slave driver by i2c_new_slave_device(), ESP32-S3 is ready to communicate with other I2C master as a slave.

I2C Slave Write

The send buffer of the I2C slave is used as a FIFO to store the data to be sent. The data will queue up until the master requests them. You can call i2c_slave_transmit() to transfer data.

Simple example for writing data to FIFO:

uint8_t *data_wr = (uint8_t *) malloc(DATA_LENGTH);

i2c_slave_config_t i2c_slv_config = {
    .addr_bit_len = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,   // 7-bit address
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,    // set the clock source
    .i2c_port = 0,                        // set I2C port number
    .send_buf_depth = 256,                // set tx buffer length
    .scl_io_num = 2,                      // SCL gpio number
    .sda_io_num = 1,                      // SDA gpio number
    .slave_addr = 0x58,                   // slave address
};

i2c_bus_handle_t i2c_bus_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_slave_device(&i2c_slv_config, &i2c_bus_handle));
for (int i = 0; i < DATA_LENGTH; i++) {
    data_wr[i] = i;
}

ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_slave_transmit(i2c_bus_handle, data_wr, DATA_LENGTH, 10000));

I2C Slave Read

Whenever the master writes data to the slave, the slave will automatically store data in the receive buffer. This allows the slave application to call the function i2c_slave_receive() as its own discretion. As i2c_slave_receive() is designed as a non-blocking interface. So the user needs to register callback i2c_slave_register_event_callbacks() to know when the receive has finished.

static IRAM_ATTR bool i2c_slave_rx_done_callback(i2c_slave_dev_handle_t channel, const i2c_slave_rx_done_event_data_t *edata, void *user_data)
{
    BaseType_t high_task_wakeup = pdFALSE;
    QueueHandle_t receive_queue = (QueueHandle_t)user_data;
    xQueueSendFromISR(receive_queue, edata, &high_task_wakeup);
    return high_task_wakeup == pdTRUE;
}

uint8_t *data_rd = (uint8_t *) malloc(DATA_LENGTH);
uint32_t size_rd = 0;

i2c_slave_config_t i2c_slv_config = {
    .addr_bit_len = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7,
    .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
    .i2c_port = TEST_I2C_PORT,
    .send_buf_depth = 256,
    .scl_io_num = I2C_SLAVE_SCL_IO,
    .sda_io_num = I2C_SLAVE_SDA_IO,
    .slave_addr = 0x58,
};

i2c_slave_dev_handle_t slave_handle;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_slave_device(&i2c_slv_config, &slave_handle));

s_receive_queue = xQueueCreate(1, sizeof(i2c_slave_rx_done_event_data_t));
i2c_slave_event_callbacks_t cbs = {
    .on_recv_done = i2c_slave_rx_done_callback,
};
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_slave_register_event_callbacks(slave_handle, &cbs, s_receive_queue));

i2c_slave_rx_done_event_data_t rx_data;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_slave_receive(slave_handle, data_rd, DATA_LENGTH));
xQueueReceive(s_receive_queue, &rx_data, pdMS_TO_TICKS(10000));
// Receive done.

Put Data In I2C Slave RAM

I2C slave fifo mentioned above can be used as RAM, which means user can access the RAM directly via address fields. For example, writing data to the 3rd ram block with following graph. Before using this, please note that i2c_slave_config_t::access_ram_en needs to be set to true.

Get Data From I2C Slave RAM

Data can be stored in the RAM with a specific offset by the slave controller, and the master can read this data directly via the RAM address. For example, if the data is stored in 3rd ram block, master can read this data by following graph. Before using this, please note that i2c_slave_config_t::access_ram_en needs to be set to true.

Register Event Callbacks

I2C master callbacks

When an I2C master bus triggers an interrupt, a specific event will be generated and notify the CPU. If you have some functions that need to be called when those events occurred, you can hook your functions to the ISR (Interrupt Service Routine) by calling i2c_master_register_event_callbacks(). Since the registered callback functions are called in the interrupt context, user should ensure the callback function doesn't attempt to block (e.g. by making sure that only FreeRTOS APIs with ISR suffix are called from within the function). The callback functions are required to return a boolean value, to tell the ISR whether a high priority task is woke up by it.

I2C master event callbacks are listed in the i2c_master_event_callbacks_t.

Although I2C is a synchronous communication protocol, we also support asynchronous behavior by registering above callback. In this way, I2C APIs will be non-blocking interface. But note that on the same bus, only one device can adopt asynchronous operation.

重要

I2C master asynchronous transaction is still an experimental feature. (The issue is when asynchronous transaction is very large, it will cause memory problem.)

  • i2c_master_event_callbacks_t::on_recv_done sets a callback function for master "transaction-done" event. The function prototype is declared in i2c_master_callback_t.

I2C slave callbacks

When an I2C slave bus triggers an interrupt, a specific event will be generated and notify the CPU. If you have some function that needs to be called when those events occurred, you can hook your function to the ISR (Interrupt Service Routine) by calling i2c_slave_register_event_callbacks(). Since the registered callback functions are called in the interrupt context, user should ensure the callback function doesn't attempt to block (e.g. by making sure that only FreeRTOS APIs with ISR suffix are called from within the function). The callback function has a boolean return value, to tell the caller whether a high priority task is woke up by it.

I2C slave event callbacks are listed in the i2c_slave_event_callbacks_t.

Power Management

If the controller clock source is selected to I2C_CLK_SRC_XTAL, then the driver won't install power management lock for it, which is more suitable for a low power application as long as the source clock can still provide sufficient resolution.

IRAM Safe

By default, the I2C interrupt will be deferred when the Cache is disabled for reasons like writing/erasing Flash. Thus the event callback functions will not get executed in time, which is not expected in a real-time application.

There's a Kconfig option CONFIG_I2C_ISR_IRAM_SAFE that will:

  1. Enable the interrupt being serviced even when cache is disabled

  2. Place all functions that used by the ISR into IRAM

  3. Place driver object into DRAM (in case it's mapped to PSRAM by accident)

This will allow the interrupt to run while the cache is disabled but will come at the cost of increased IRAM consumption.

Thread Safety

The factory function i2c_new_master_bus() and i2c_new_slave_device() are guaranteed to be thread safe by the driver, which means, user can call them from different RTOS tasks without protection by extra locks. Other public I2C APIs are not thread safe. which means the user should avoid calling them from multiple tasks, if user strongly needs to call them in multiple tasks, please add extra lock.

  • read_buffer -- [out] Data bytes received from i2c bus.

  • read_size -- [in] Size, in bytes, of the read buffer.

  • xfer_timeout_ms -- [in] Wait timeout, in ms. Note: -1 means wait forever.

返回

  • ESP_OK: I2C master transmit-receive success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: I2C master transmit parameter invalid.

  • ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT: Operation timeout(larger than xfer_timeout_ms) because the bus is busy or hardware crash.

esp_err_t i2c_master_receive(i2c_master_dev_handle_t i2c_dev, uint8_t *read_buffer, size_t read_size, int xfer_timeout_ms)

Perform a read transaction on the I2C bus. The transaction will be undergoing until it finishes or it reaches the timeout provided.

备注

If a callback was registered with i2c_master_register_event_callbacks, the transaction will be asynchronous, and thus, this function will return directly, without blocking. You will get finish information from callback. Besides, data buffer should always be completely prepared when callback is registered, otherwise, the data will get corrupt.

参数
  • i2c_dev -- [in] I2C master device handle that created by i2c_master_bus_add_device.

  • read_buffer -- [out] Data bytes received from i2c bus.

  • read_size -- [in] Size, in bytes, of the read buffer.

  • xfer_timeout_ms -- [in] Wait timeout, in ms. Note: -1 means wait forever.

返回

  • ESP_OK: I2C master receive success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: I2C master receive parameter invalid.

  • ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT: Operation timeout(larger than xfer_timeout_ms) because the bus is busy or hardware crash.

esp_err_t i2c_master_probe(i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle, uint16_t address, int xfer_timeout_ms)

Probe I2C address, if address is correct and ACK is received, this function will return ESP_OK.

Attention

Pull-ups must be connected to the SCL and SDA pins when this function is called. If you get ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT whilexfer_timeout_mswas parsed correctly, you should check the pull-up resistors. If you do not have proper resistors nearby. flags.enable_internal_pullup` is also acceptable.

备注

The principle of this function is to sent device address with a write command. If the device on your I2C bus, there would be an ACK signal and function returns ESP_OK. If the device is not on your I2C bus, there would be a NACK signal and function returns ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND. ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT is not an expected failure, which indicated that the i2c probe not works properly, usually caused by pull-up resistors not be connected properly. Suggestion check data on SDA/SCL line to see whether there is ACK/NACK signal is on line when i2c probe function fails.

备注

There are lots of I2C devices all over the world, we assume that not all I2C device support the behavior like device_address+nack/ack. So, if the on line data is strange and no ack/nack got respond. Please check the device datasheet.

参数
  • bus_handle -- [in] I2C master device handle that created by i2c_master_bus_add_device.

  • address -- [in] I2C device address that you want to probe.

  • xfer_timeout_ms -- [in] Wait timeout, in ms. Note: -1 means wait forever (Not recommended in this function).

返回

  • ESP_OK: I2C device probe successfully

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND: I2C probe failed, doesn't find the device with specific address you gave.

  • ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT: Operation timeout(larger than xfer_timeout_ms) because the bus is busy or hardware crash.
