STM32L496 I2C2 configuration issue

[jsavonet]

Hi all,

I have a custom board on which I have an I2C chip connected on PB10/11 (I2C2). Unfortunatly, the board was made before I read the errata sheet in which it is mentionned that I2C2 on PB10/11 cannot be used in FastMode (Murphy Law )

On this same board I have other peripherals on I2C3 that are working fine.

The problem is that I cannot managed to configure my I2C2 in standard mode so that I can be compliant with the errata and I can use those sensors.

If someone can help It would be so nice,

Regards,
Jeremy S.

Hi,

What is the problem exactly?

Hi Giovanni,

I forgot to post the I2C configuration. Here is the configuration:

Code: Select all

            STM32_TIMINGR_PRESC( 8U ) | STM32_TIMINGR_SCLDEL( 4U ) |
            STM32_TIMINGR_SDADEL( 2U ) | STM32_TIMINGR_SCLH( 15U ) |
            STM32_TIMINGR_SCLL( 19U ),
            0,
            0,

The problem is that with I2C2 configured on pin PB10/PB11 my chip is not responding to a ping command while on I2C3 with exact same configuration chip is working well.

Code: Select all

            // Set pad mode for I2C2
            palSetPadMode(
                GPIOB,
                10,
                PAL_MODE_ALTERNATE( 4 ) | PAL_STM32_OTYPE_OPENDRAIN );
            palSetPadMode(
                GPIOB,
                11,
                PAL_MODE_ALTERNATE( 4 ) | PAL_STM32_OTYPE_OPENDRAIN );

Hi again,

I found a configuration in ChibiOS testhal folder that fix my issue:

Code: Select all

  STM32_TIMINGR_PRESC(15U) |
  STM32_TIMINGR_SCLDEL(4U) | STM32_TIMINGR_SDADEL(2U) |
  STM32_TIMINGR_SCLH(15U)  | STM32_TIMINGR_SCLL(21U),
  0,
  0

Ah good Do you have appropriate pullups externally?

Also note that in ChibiOS there is a little known I2C fallback implementation done in SW, when everything else fails you can try that.

Thank you Giovanni for the help,

Yes my pullups are good so far.
I'll give a look at the fallback feature,
