Schematic Design Recommendations
If the levels of I2C slave device and N720 OpenLinux do not match, add a level shifting circuit.
Refer to Figure 3-20.
Some pins can be multiplexed for I2C function. Connect external pull-up resistors to these pins
when they are used for I2C function. For details, see section 3.7 MUX Interfaces.
PCB Design Guidelines
Do not cross other traces if possible. If crossing is inevitable, route the I2C traces perpendicular
to other traces.
Keep I2C traces far away from areas that might introduce ESD.
Surround signal traces with ground.
The following figures and tables show the I2C data transmission, I2C timing, and parameters.
