If you have a shield and the i2c pins just have to be some random non-i2c pins you will have to use a bit banged implementation. There is a fairly simplistic one provided in Wire.h in the IDE, which you can use if you select it from the drop down. that simplistic lib does not support clock stretching. gbulmer on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7728 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:26:29 +0000 gbulmer 7728@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Has anyone tried ST's I2C firmware? <a href="http://www.st.com/stonline/stappl/resourceSelector/app?page=resourceSelector&doctype=FIRMWARE&SubClassID=1169" rel="nofollow">http://www.st.com/stonline/stappl/resourceSelector/app?page=resourceSelector&doctype=FIRMWARE&SubClassID=1169</a> There appears to be entire sets of test programs as well as implementations of slave and master libraries. mikep on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7715 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 09:53:13 +0000 mikep 7715@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Hello Greg, is this the code you are referring to? <a href="http://www.eganfamily.id.au/Family/Misc/DemoWire_gke.zip" rel="nofollow">http://www.eganfamily.id.au/Family/Misc/DemoWire_gke.zip</a> I have not tried it yet, I just wanted to make sure I have the right location.

It runs at 400KHz on the "Maple" board. The pulse timings are not tuned but it has been tested on several devices on an IMU board and seems to work fine. The wait clock timeout may be too short for devices using clock stretching. Change the timeout define to be something very large. Changing the pin numbers as you have done should work assuming you grabbed the latest version as that uses the pin_map to get to the actual pins. To go fast you need to define DIRECT_PIN_IO from memory. You will see the relevant ifdef in Wire.cpp. Greg rosendo on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7676 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 00:28:53 +0000 rosendo 7676@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Obrigado, bubulindo! Take your time! I am just a newbie on this area trying to learn how to blink a few more lights (there is no rush!). If, in the future, you could spend some of your spare time making a simple I/O expander control for I2C I would appreciate it.

I also don't have a mini. I'm trying to finish up on a Real Time Clock library, but once I get that going I can have a look and maybe create some code that uses the onboard hardware for i2c. :S Actually these are already created and you should access them by including i2c.h. I'd have to look into them to see how to use them though. rosendo on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7674 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 23:06:41 +0000 rosendo 7674@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Sorry, I don't have an oscilloscope. I tried the same program, putting a delay(20) between each of the functions and still it blinks once and stops. Any of you guys have a working I2C program (anything where you begin, send data and then end) successfully written to Maple Mini? My scheme is exactly like that homepage says, the only difference is that instead of an Arduino there is a Maple mini using pins 15 and 16, then ground and 3.3. (I tried arduino with 3.3 instead of 5V, and it worked too). bubulindo, thanks for your replies! Maybe there is some issue with the pins nomenclature inside the library. bubulindo on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7672 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 21:54:30 +0000 bubulindo 7672@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Hmmm, I just noticed that the pins are written to HIGH, so you shouldn't need the pull ups. You can start the I2C with: void TwoWire::begin(uint8 sda, uint8 scl) { and define the pins. These are however, bitbang implementations. :\ is it the same with Arduino? Is your configuration of the MCP correct? The other only thing that I see that could influence this is the speed of the bus. Have you put an oscilloscope on the lines to see the clock frequency? Maybe the Maple is running too fast for the MCP to catch it? The Arduino is running much slower for sure, so that could be your issue. Also, with high frequencies you run into signal degradation, which could also be the problem here. Can you check the waves for us? rosendo on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7671 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:13:30 +0000 rosendo 7671@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Thanks for the reply bubulindo, I have the same I2C code on both boards (arduino and maple).

I haven't tested it yet though. From the looks of it you need to put some pull ups on the I2C interface since the begin function sets the outputs at open drain. I believe Arduino does this for you, but here I'm not exactly sure if you can do the same on the Maple. Give it a go with external pull ups and see if you get something different. Like I said, I haven't tested this yet. I do have that Microchip at my place, but I'll only be there in two weeks time. If you haven't fixed it by then I can give it a go. I think SPI may have the same pull up issue. I can't see any other thing wrong without starting to troubleshoot. :( rosendo on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7632 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 20:23:28 +0000 rosendo 7632@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ It has been a month and no reply, so I think I will bump this one, adding: Recently I bought a maple mini and decided to expand the IO with I2C or SPI. Initially trying with SPI, I noticed that it would be more complicated than I thought because MCP23S17 requires some SPI address (which I set!), but due to my inferior skills I convince SPI to send an address. I'll put that on hold. However, what really surprised me was not being able to control MCP23017 (the I2C) version, so if anybody could help me (I can control this bad boy from Arduino) I just need to know 4 functions on Maple MINI: Wire.begin() <--- Or something that wakes up I2C Wire.beginTransmission(address) <--- Or something to start the transmission Wire.send(data) <--- Or something to send data Wire.endTransmission() <--- Or something to end the transmission On Arduino I use these and I can write anything to the IO expander, but on Maple it doesn't work. I tried the original Wire library, Crenn's and Gke's library. Inside the library I tried changing SDA and SCL from 20-21 to 15-16, but nothing... Did I miss anything? Sorry for my lack of knowledge, but I already gave up on SPI... giving up on I2C will be too much! librae8226 on "Is there any sample code for hardware i2c implementation in libmaple ?" http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=1195#post-7263 Wed, 30 Nov 2011 07:01:54 +0000 librae8226 7263@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ Hi Leaflabs guys, Recently I am trying to use i2c communication based on libmaple (C library), but I didn't find a proper way to use the i2c API. my code is like: ------ i2c_init(I2C1); i2c_master_enable(I2C1, I2C_FAST_MODE); i2c_master_xfer(I2C1, &msg, 1, 200); But it seems not working. By the way, doesn't libmaple implement i2c slave? I would like to make two maple boards communicating via i2c, but didn't find the APIs for slave :P Thanks.
