PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS65185x hosts a slave I2C interface that supports data rates up to 400 kbit/s and auto-increment addressing and is compliant to I2C standard 3.0.
The I2C Bus is a communications link between a controller and a series of slave terminals. The link is established using a two-wire bus consisting of a serial clock signal (SCL) and a serial data signal (SDA). The serial clock is sourced from the controller in all cases where the serial data line is bi-directional for data communication between the controller and the slave terminals. Each device has an open drain output to transmit data on the serial data line. An external pullup resistor must be placed on the serial data line to pull the drain output high during data transmission.
Data transmission is initiated with a start bit from the controller as shown in Figure 27. The start condition is recognized when the SDA line transitions from high to low during the high portion of the SCL signal. Upon reception of a start bit, the device will receive serial data on the SDA input and check for valid address and control information. If the appropriate slave address bits are set for the device, then the device will issue an acknowledge pulse and prepare to receive the register address. Depending on the R/nW bit, the next byte received from the master is written to the addressed register (R/nW = 0) or the device responds with 8-bit data from the register (R/nW = 1). Data transmission is completed by either the reception of a stop condition or the reception of the data word sent to the device. A stop condition is recognized as a low to high transition of the SDA input during the high portion of the SCL signal. All other transitions of the SDA line must occur during the low portion of the SCL signal. An acknowledge is issued after the reception of valid address, sub-address, and data words. The I2C interfaces will auto-sequence through register addresses, so that multiple data words can be sent for a given I2C transmission. See Figure 26 and Figure 27 for details.
