software I2C 18F2550 problem
PostPosted: Mon Sep 10, 2018 7:17 pm     Reply with quote

Hello !! Very Happy Very Happy
i want to connect two MCUs 18F2550 Via I2C (Slave writes data / Master reads the data)
Yet there is a problem when i use the software I2C on Slave MCU (i need SW I2C because i need to use the external interrupts )...the data sent is wrong (data received =0xFF) and when i switch to HW_I2C the data becomes Correct ... any solutions?

Master Code
Code:
 #include <18F2550.h>
#fuses XT, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, BROWNOUT, PUT, NOLVP
#use delay (internal=8M)
#use I2C(MASTER, SDA=PIN_B6, SCL=PIN_B7,FAST=450000 ,FORCE_SW)
#include "lcd.c"
int8 data ;

void clear_screen(){   //to clear the LCD
lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
printf(lcd_putc,"                           ") ;
lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"                           ") ;
}

void main(){
 lcd_init();
 setup_oscillator(OSC_8MHZ);
 while(true){                   
        i2c_start();   // start condition
        delay_ms(10); 
        i2c_write(0x12+1);
        delay_ms(10);
        data = i2c_read(0);
        delay_ms(10);
        i2c_stop();
        clear_screen();
        lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
        printf (lcd_putc,"I'M THE MASTER"); 
        lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
        printf (lcd_putc,"I RECEIVED %d ", data); 
        delay_ms(500);
       
}
}


Slave code (slave writes DATA)

Code:
#include <18F2550.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,PUT,BROWNOUT,NOLVP
#use delay (internal=8M)
#use I2C(slave,SDA=PIN_B6, SCL=PIN_B7, address=0x12 ,FAST=450000 ,FORCE_SW)
#include "lcd.c"
int8 data=15 ;

#INT_SSP
void ssp_interrupt()

int8 incoming, state ;
state = i2c_isr_state();   
if(state < 0x80)     // Master is sending data
  {
   incoming = i2c_read();
  }

if(state >= 0x80)   // Master is requesting data from slave
  {
   i2c_write(data);
  }
}

void clear_screen(){   //to clear the LCD
lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
printf(lcd_putc,"                           ") ;
lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
printf(lcd_putc,"                           ") ;
}

void main(){
 lcd_init();
 setup_oscillator(OSC_8MHZ);
 enable_interrupts(INT_SSP);
 enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
 while(true){                   
        lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
        printf (lcd_putc,"I'M SLAVE"); 
        lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
        printf (lcd_putc,"I'M SENDING %d",data); 
        delay_ms(500);
}
}


Note : I'm using 4.7kohms as pullups

I'm not sure about this but I don't think you can use ssp interrupt if you are not using hardware dedicated ssp pins.

I'd have to agree, interrupts are only available for the internal HW peripherals. Same holds true for the UARTS. If you create a SW UART, you don't have an ISR for it. If you dump the listing ,you'll see the assembly code and the related calls to PIC registers.
Possible workarounds are
1) reconfigure the PIC so you can use the HW I2C
2) recode to have a very tight(fast and small) loop in main to check the I2C incoming data.

#1 would be the best, #2 will work providing not much else is going on...

Thank you for your reply.
1) reconfigure the PIC so you can use the HW I2C does it mean that i lose the external interrupts ... if not HOW ?!
2) recode to have a very tight (fast and small) loop in main to check the I2C incoming data. (for this solution i think that this can cause bus collision problems the slave and the master should be synchronized)
Any other solutions ?

That PIC has 4 interrupt-on-change pins, RB4,5,6,7. Perhaps you can use them ?
Without knowing what your total requirements are, it's hard to give you the 'perfect solution'.

Seriously then manual is your friend. If You read the #use I2C section, yoiu have it saying:

Quote:

The SLAVE mode should only be used with the built-in SSP.


The software library does not properly implement slave operation. To do slave, and especially to use I2C interrupts, you need to be using the hardware peripheral.
Now you say you need external interrupts. How many?.
INT2 is available even when you use the hardware I2C.
If you need more, then as others have said, consider using the INT_RB capability.

Thank you for your reply ... Smile Smile
Yes i need all the external interrupts ... I'm trying to communicate 18F2550 master and Raspberry pi 3 as master (note the Raspberry pi does not support slave mode nor multimaster mode). So i found another solution, which is making an i2c multiplexer.
