What are the features of I2C bus?

What are the features of I2C bus?

I2C has many important features worth mentioning. It supports multiple data speeds: Standard-mode (100 kbps), Fast-mode(400 kbps), Fast-mode plus, High-speed mode (3.4 Mbps), and Ultra Fast-mode (5.0 Mbps) I2C communications. Other features include: Built in collision detection.

How much RAM does the MSP430F5529 have?

8KB
The MSP430F5529 16-bit MCU has 128KB of flash memory, 8KB of RAM, 25-MHz CPU speed, integrated USB, and many peripherals – plenty to get you started in your development.

What is the main purpose of the SDA I2C signal?

SDA (Serial Data) – The line for the master and slave to send and receive data. SCL (Serial Clock) – The line that carries the clock signal. I2C is a serial communication protocol, so data is transferred bit by bit along a single wire (the SDA line).

What are the components of I2C waveform?

Signals. Each I2C bus consists of two signals: SDA and SCL. SDA (Serial Data) is the data signal and SCL (Serial Clock) is the clock signal.

Which of the below features are applicable to I2C bus?

The following are some of the important features of I2C communication protocol:

  • Only two common bus lines (wires) are required to control any device/IC on the I2C network.
  • No need of prior agreement on data transfer rate like in UART communication.
  • Simple mechanism for validation of data transferred.

CAN bus features?

The 5 Advantages of CAN Protocol

  • Low Cost. When the CAN protocol was first created, its primary goal was to enable faster communication between electronic devices and modules in vehicles while reducing the amount of wiring (and the amount of copper) necessary.
  • Built-in Error Detection.
  • Robustness.
  • Speed.
  • Flexibility.

What is MSP430 used for?

Applications of MSP430 It is used in Building & Home Automation Applications. It is used in Grid Infrastructure & Metering Applications. It is used in Portable Test & Measurement Equipment.

Why is MSP430 16-bit microcontroller?

Originally the MSP430 was a “true” 16-bit microcontroller, meaning all its registers were 16-bits wide. All of its memory addresses were 16-bits wide too, and therefore it it could address 64KB of memory. (The largest 16-bit number is 0xFFFF in hex or 65535 in decimal, which equates to 64KB of memory.

What is SDA I2C?

The physical I2C bus SCL is the clock line. It is used to synchronize all data transfers over the I2C bus. SDA is the data line. The SCL & SDA lines are connected to all devices on the I2C bus. There needs to be a third wire which is just the ground or 0 volts.
