Reception using DMA
DMA mode can be enabled for reception by setting the DMAEN bit in the I2C_CR2 register.
Data will be loaded from the I2C_DR register to a Memory area configured using the DMA
peripheral (refer to the DMA specification) whenever a data byte is received. To map a DMA
stream x for I
2
C reception (where x is the stream number), perform the following sequence:
1.
Set the I2C_DR register address in DMA_SxPAR
register. The data will be moved from
this address to the memory after each RxNE event.
2. Set the memory address in the DMA_SxMA0R register (and in DMA_SxMA1R register
in the case of a bouble buffer mode). The data will be loaded from the I2C_DR register
to this memory area after each RxNE event.
3. Configure the total number of bytes to be transferred in the DMA_SxNDTR register.
After each RxNE event, this value will be decremented.
4. Configure the stream priority using the PL[0:1] bits in the DMA_SxCR register
5. Reset the DIR bit and configure interrupts in the DMA_SxCR register after half transfer
or full transfer depending on application requirements.
6. Activate the stream by setting the EN bit in the DMA_SxCR register.
When the number of data transfers which has been programmed in the DMA Controller
registers is reached, the DMA controller sends an End of Transfer EOT/ EOT_1 signal to the
I
2
C interface and DMA generates an interrupt, if enabled, on the DMA stream interrupt
vector.
Note:
Do not enable the ITBUFEN bit in the I2C_CR2 register if DMA is used for reception.

Packet error checking
A PEC calculator has been implemented to improve the reliability of communication. The
PEC is calculated by using the C(x) = x
8
+ x
2
+ x + 1 CRC-8 polynomial serially on each bit.
•
PEC calculation is enabled by setting the ENPEC bit in the I2C_CR1 register. PEC is a
CRC-8 calculated on all message bytes including addresses and R/W bits.
–
In transmission: set the PEC transfer bit in the I2C_CR1 register after the TxE
event corresponding to the last byte. The PEC will be transferred after the last
transmitted byte.
–
In reception: set the PEC bit in the I2C_CR1 register after the RxNE event
corresponding to the last byte so that the receiver sends a NACK if the next
received byte is not equal to the internally calculated PEC. In case of Master-
Receiver, a NACK must follow the PEC whatever the check result. The PEC must
