11.7.1 I
2
C Control Set register (I2CONSET: I2C0, I2C0CONSET - 0xE001 C000
and I2C1, I2C1CONSET - 0xE005 C000)
The I2CONSET registers control setting of bits in the I2CON register that controls
operation of the I
2
C interface. Writing a one to a bit of this register causes the
corresponding bit in the I
2
C control register to be set. Writing a zero has no effect.
I2EN I
2
C Interface Enable. When I2EN is 1, the I
2
C interface is enabled. I2EN can be
cleared by writing 1 to the I2ENC bit in the I2CONCLR register. When I2EN is 0, the I
2
C
interface is disabled.
When I2EN is “0”, the SDA and SCL input signals are ignored, the I
2
C block is in the “not
addressed” slave state, and the STO bit is forced to “0”.
I2EN should not be used to temporarily release the I
2
C-bus since, when I2EN is reset, the
I
2
C-bus status is lost. The AA flag should be used instead.
STA is the START flag. Setting this bit causes the I
2
C interface to enter master mode and
transmit a START condition or transmit a repeated START condition if it is already in
master mode.
When STA is 1 and the I
2
C interface is not already in master mode, it enters master mode,
checks the bus and generates a START condition if the bus is free. If the bus is not free, it
waits for a STOP condition (which will free the bus) and generates a START condition after
a delay of a half clock period of the internal clock generator. If the I
2
C interface is already
in master mode and data has been transmitted or received, it transmits a repeated START
condition. STA may be set at any time, including when the I
2
C interface is in an addressed
slave mode.
STA can be cleared by writing 1 to the STAC bit in the I2CONCLR register. When STA is 0,
no START condition or repeated START condition will be generated.
If STA and STO are both set, then a STOP condition is transmitted on the I
2
C-bus if it the
interface is in master mode, and transmits a START condition thereafter. If the I
2
C
interface is in slave mode, an internal STOP condition is generated, but is not transmitted
on the bus.
