Overview
The interface provides the functions of transmission and reception in master
and slave modes, detection of arbitration lost, detection of slave address and
general call address, generation and detection of start and stop conditions,
bus error detection, and MCU standby wakeup.

C Bus Interface Functions
The I
2
C bus interface is a two-wire, bi-directional bus consisting of a serial data line (SDAn)
and serial clock line (SCLn). The devices connected to the bus via these two wires can
exchange data, and each device can operate as a sender or receiver in accordance with their
respective functions based on the unique address assigned to each device. Furthermore, the
interface establishes a master/slave relationship between devices.
The I
2
C bus interface can connect multiple devices provided the bus capacitance does not
exceed an upper limit of 400 pF. The I
2
C bus interface is a true multi-master bus with collision
detection and a communication control protocol that prevent loss of data even if more than one
master attempts to start a data transfer at the same time.
The communication control protocol ensures that only one master is able to take control of the
bus at a time, even if multiple masters attempt to take control of the bus simultaneously,
without messages being lost or data being altered. Multi-master means that more than one
master can attempt to take control of the bus at the same time without causing messages to be
lost.
The I
2
C bus interface includes a function to wake up the MCU from standby mode.
