i2c communication with external eeprom
PostPosted: Mon Oct 16, 2006 4:54 pm     Reply with quote

Hi,
At first, I am sorry about my language. I wrote the below codes, but did not worked. Yes I know, now you will tell me the read other releated forum massagess. I red and I worked very very much combinations of the i2c codes but did not worked. I red the other sources (like Embaded C Programming and the Microchip PIC / Barnett, Cox & O'Cull Book).
I am using CCS C compiler ver. 3.189 I forgot, Iwant to communicate with microchip 24c65
Could some one help me?

Code:

#define speed 4000000
#include <16F876.h>
#Fuses  xt,nowdt,protect,noput,nobrownout,nolvp,nocpd
#use  delay(clock=speed)
#byte status=3         
#byte porta=5 
#byte portb=6 
#byte portc=7 
#define eeprom_sda  pin_c4
#define eeprom_scl  pin_c3
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=pin_b7)    // This is for my LCD
#use i2c(master,sda=eeprom_sda,scl=eeprom_scl,restart_wdt,force_hw)

int8 data,receive;

void init_ext_eeprom()
   {
   output_float(pin_c4);
   output_float(pin_c3);
   }

boolean is_ext_eeprom_ready()
   {
   int1 ack;
   i2c_start();
   ack=i2c_write(160);
   i2c_stop();
   return !ack;
   }

void write_ext_eeprom(int16 address, int8 data)
   {
   while(!is_ext_eeprom_ready());
   i2c_start();
   i2c_write(160);
   i2c_write(address>>8);
   i2c_write(address);
   i2c_write(data);
   i2c_stop();
   }

void read_ext_eeprom(int16 adres)
   {
   while(!is_ext_eeprom_ready());
   i2c_start();
   i2c_write(160);
   i2c_write(address>>8);
   i2c_write(address);
   i2c_start();
   i2c_write(161);
   receive=i2c_read(0);
   i2c_stop();
   }

void main()                                     
   {
   setup_counters(rtcc_internal,wdt_1152ms);
   init_ext_eeprom();
   clr_screen();
   while(true)
      {
      if(!bit_test(porta,0))
         {
         delay_ms(500);
         restart_wdt();
         write_ext_eeprom(16,113);
         delay_ms(50);
         line_1();
         printf("  MEMORY INSERTED   ");
         }
      if(!bit_test(porta,1))
         {
         delay_ms(500);
         restart_wdt();
         read_ext_eeprom(16);
         delay_ms(50);
         line_1();
         printf("  IN MEMORY  ");
         line_2();
         printf("      %u        ",receive);
         }
      }
   }

Well, I'm not an I2C expert... in fact I found your post while looking for some help related to I2C, but I may give you some extra point of view:
In your code, you read the PORTA onve every 500ms, maybe this is to slow to detect the pulse.
I guess your are using an LCD display, aren't you? Well... I like guessing, there is no problem with that :P
The driver you are using asummes a fixed address for the memory, maybe is not the one you are using... no idea. Just "brain storming"

Good Luck,

Juanma

I wanted write a simple test program. When I push the (porta,0) button, it sends a test numbers (address 16 and data 113) to 24c65. And when I push the (porta,1) button, I am asking the 24c65 what number is in your address 16 memory.

Small tip, include the recieve pin in the use rs232 def, to enable UART,
Code:
//For 16F877A, use correct pins; check datasheet!
#use rs232(baud=4800, parity=N, bits=8, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, ERRORS)

Next time please tell us what is working and what is not working, which output you expect and the output you see.

You copied the whole of the 2465.c driver supplied by CCS. Don't do this, just place a #include line in your code. The code has been around for several years so I don't expect the error to be in the I2C command sequence.

In copying the code you changed read_ext_eeprom to return no data anymore. Why? How do you expect to get access to the read data now?

You never assign a value to the 'receive' variable, so whatever value is printed will be random and not related to the eeprom.

If you look at the code you will see that "receive" is (or is intended to be) a global variable and is written within the read_ext_eeprom() routine.

I am sorry ckielstra,
yes, I copied 2465.c from compiler driver file.
but I changed the receive=read_ext_eeprom() I am not stupid.
I hoped you will though of this simple thing.

I asked This codes doesn't return 113 to lcd

I have two suggestions:

1. Use the CCS driver, 2465.c.

2. See this thread, which explains an important feature of the 2465 eeprom:

Dear PCM Programmer,

At the beginning I was tried #include 2465.c. But I didn't get right result
Now I am trying new one same #include 2465.c and I am getting from
LCD 201-199-199
3 results. Because I Wrote

a=read_ext_eeprom();
b=read_ext_eeprom();
c=read_ext_eeprom();
So, I get a 3 rasults like 201-199-199
however, I write an address 16 113 I only wanted to see 113
thanks for your intresting.

I need to study the security options on this eeprom some more,
and then I will post a simple test program for it.

Just a guess, but you'll probably be waiting a loooooong time for that massage. Laughing

Here is a program that will read the Security Block information
from the 24LC65 eeprom. I don't have an eeprom chip to test,
but I followed the i2c diagram in the data sheet in the section on
"Security Read", when I wrote the security_read_24LC65()
function.

If you run this program, it will tell you if the eeprom has any
blocks that are write-protected. You were having problems
with reading the correct data from your eeprom. If part of
the eeprom is write-protected, then this could explain your
problem.

Note: This program is only for the 24LC65 eeprom, which has
a special Security block feature. This program is not for normal
eeproms such as the 24LC64, etc.

Code:

#include <16F877.h>
#fuses XT, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, PUT, BROWNOUT, NOLVP
#use delay(clock=4000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, ERRORS)

// Use the default pins of sda=PIN_C4 and scl=PIN_C3.
#include <2465.c>

//-------------------------------------
int16 security_read_24LC65(void)
{
int8 starting_block;
int8 number_of_blocks;
int16 retval;

while(!ext_eeprom_ready());

i2c_start();
i2c_write(0xA0);  // Slave address
i2c_write(0x80);  // Access security information
i2c_write(0x00);  // Don't care
i2c_write(0xC0);  // Configuration byte
starting_block = i2c_read() & 0x0F;   
number_of_blocks = i2c_read(0) & 0x0F;
i2c_stop();

// Combine the two status bytes into a 16-bit word.
retval = make16(starting_block, number_of_blocks);

return(retval);
}

//=============================
void main()
{
int8 result;

init_ext_eeprom();

result = security_read_24LC65();

printf("Display security block settings in 24LC65:\n\r");
printf("Starting block = %X \n\r", (int8)(result >> 8));
printf("Number of blocks = %X \n\r", (int8)result);

while(1);
}

Dear PCMprogrammer,
Thank you very much for your reply. I solved my problem. As you said, I think the reason that was the security or block problem. Because I had got 24c65 from my friend. And I bought a new ATMEL 24c64 it is worked.
Thank you for your interest.
With my best regards.
