20.5.1

SCL and SDA Pins

These pins interface the AVR TWI with the rest of the MCU system. The output drivers contain a

slew-rate limiter in order to conform to the TWI specification. The input stages contain a spike

suppression unit removing spikes shorter than 50 ns. Note that the internal pull-ups in the AVR

pads can be enabled by setting the PORT bits corresponding to the SCL and SDA pins, as

explained in the I/O Port section. The internal pull-ups can in some systems eliminate the need

for external ones.

20.5.2

Bit Rate Generator Unit

This unit controls the period of SCL when operating in a Master mode. The SCL period is con-

trolled by settings in the TWI Bit Rate Register (TWBR) and the Prescaler bits in the TWI Status

CPU clock frequency in the Slave must be at least 16 times higher than the SCL frequency. Note

that slaves may prolong the SCL low period, thereby reducing the average TWI bus clock

period. The SCL frequency is generated according to the following equation:
