LPC1766
Fast communication chip
7.19 I2C-bus serial I/O controllers
The LPC1766 each contain three I2C-bus controllers.
The I2C-bus is bidirectional, for inter-IC control using only two wires: a serial clock line
(SCL), and a serial data line (SDA). Each device is recognized by a unique address and
can operate as either a receiver-only device (e.g., an LCD driver) or a transmitter with the
capability to both receive and send information (such as memory). Transmitters and/or
receivers can operate in either master or slave mode, depending on whether the chip has
to initiate a data transfer or is only addressed. The I2C is a multi-master bus and can be
controlled by more than one bus master connected to it.
7.19.1 Features
• I2C0 is a standard I2C compliant bus interface with open-drain pins. I2C0 also
supports Fast mode plus with bit rates up to 1 Mbit/s.
• I2C1 and I2C2 use standard I/O pins with bit rates of up to 400 kbit/s (Fast I2C-bus).
• Easy to configure as master, slave, or master/slave.
• Programmable clocks allow versatile rate control.
• Bidirectional data transfer between masters and slaves.
• Multi-master bus (no central master).
• Arbitration between simultaneously transmitting masters without corruption of serial
data on the bus.
• Serial clock synchronization allows devices with different bit rates to communicate via
one serial bus.
• Serial clock synchronization can be used as a handshake mechanism to suspend and
resume serial transfer.
• The I2C-bus can be used for test and diagnostic purposes.
• All I2C-bus controllers support multiple address recognition and a bus monitor mode.
7.20 I2S-bus serial I/O controllers
The I2S-bus provides a standard communication interface for digital audio applications.
The I2S-bus specification defines a 3-wire serial bus using one data line, one clock line,
and one word select signal. The basic I2S connection has one master, which is always the
master, and one slave. The I2S interface on the LPC1766 provides a separate transmit
and receive channel, each of which can operate as either a master or a slave.
7.20.1 Features
• The interface has separate input/output channels each of which can operate in master
or slave mode.
• Capable of handling 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit word sizes.
• Mono and stereo audio data supported.
• The sampling frequency can range from 16 kHz to 96 kHz (16, 22.05, 32, 44.1, 48,
96) kHz.
• Support for an audio master clock.
• Configurable word select period in master mode (separately for I2S input and output).
