  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

  • ESP_FAIL Driver install error

Parameters
  • i2c_num: I2C port number

  • mode: I2C mode( master or slave )

esp_err_t i2c_driver_delete(i2c_port_t i2c_num)

I2C driver delete.

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters
  • i2c_num: I2C port number

esp_err_t i2c_param_config(i2c_port_t i2c_num, const i2c_config_t *i2c_conf)

I2C parameter initialization.

Note

It must be used after calling i2c_driver_install

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters
  • i2c_num: I2C port number

  • i2c_conf: pointer to I2C parameter settings

esp_err_t i2c_set_pin(i2c_port_t i2c_num, int sda_io_num, int scl_io_num, gpio_pullup_t sda_pullup_en, gpio_pullup_t scl_pullup_en, i2c_mode_t mode)

Configure GPIO signal for I2C sck and sda.

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters
  • i2c_num: I2C port number

  • sda_io_num: GPIO number for I2C sda signal

  • scl_io_num: GPIO number for I2C scl signal

  • sda_pullup_en: Whether to enable the internal pullup for sda pin

  • scl_pullup_en: Whether to enable the internal pullup for scl pin

  • mode: I2C mode

Create and init I2C command link.

Note

Before we build I2C command link, we need to call i2c_cmd_link_create() to create a command link. After we finish sending the commands, we need to call i2c_cmd_link_delete() to release and return the resources.

Return

i2c command link handler

Free I2C command link.

Note

Before we build I2C command link, we need to call i2c_cmd_link_create() to create a command link. After we finish sending the commands, we need to call i2c_cmd_link_delete() to release and return the resources.

Parameters

esp_err_t i2c_master_start(i2c_cmd_handle_t cmd_handle)

Queue command for I2C master to generate a start signal.

Note

Only call this function in I2C master mode Call i2c_master_cmd_begin() to send all queued commands

Queue command for I2C master to write buffer to I2C bus.

Note

Only call this function in I2C master mode Call i2c_master_cmd_begin() to send all queued commands

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters
  • cmd_handle: I2C cmd link

esp_err_t i2c_master_read_byte(i2c_cmd_handle_t cmd_handle, uint8_t *data, i2c_ack_type_t ack)

Queue command for I2C master to read one byte from I2C bus.

Note

Only call this function in I2C master mode Call i2c_master_cmd_begin() to send all queued commands

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters
  • cmd_handle: I2C cmd link

  • data: pointer accept the data byte

  • ack: ack value for read command

esp_err_t i2c_master_read(i2c_cmd_handle_t cmd_handle, uint8_t *data, size_t data_len, i2c_ack_type_t ack)

Queue command for I2C master to read data from I2C bus.

Parameters
  • cmd_handle: I2C cmd link

Parameters
  • cmd_handle: I2C cmd link

esp_err_t i2c_master_cmd_begin(i2c_port_t i2c_num, i2c_cmd_handle_t cmd_handle, TickType_t ticks_to_wait)

I2C master send queued commands. This function will trigger sending all queued commands. The task will be blocked until all the commands have been sent out. The I2C APIs are not thread-safe, if you want to use one I2C port in different tasks, you need to take care of the multi-thread issue.

Note

Only call this function in I2C master mode

Return

  • ESP_OK Success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

  • ESP_FAIL Sending command error, slave doesn’t ACK the transfer.

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE I2C driver not installed or not in master mode.

  • ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT Operation timeout because the bus is busy.

Parameters
  • i2c_num: I2C port number

  • cmd_handle: I2C command handler

  • ticks_to_wait: maximum wait ticks.
